- ― Sektor to Khameleon
Sektor is a character in the Mortal Kombat fighting game series. The former Grandmaster of both the Lin Kuei and the Cyber Lin Kuei, Sektor's insanity and remorseless nature has made him a major ally to the antagonists to the series while being a primary antagonist to the likes of Kuai Liang and Hanzo Hasashi.
Sektor made his playable debut in Mortal Kombat 3 in his cyborg form. He retains this appearance until returning in Mortal Kombat (2011) in his human form before again appearing in his cyborg form.
Sektor returns in Mortal Kombat 11 as a non-playable character while serving as a minor antagonist in the game's Story Mode.
Sektor also reappears in Mortal Kombat 1 as one of the many selectable Kameo Fighters. A new version of Sektor makes a playable return as DLC as part of the Kombat Pack 2. She serves as one of the protagonists of the Khaos Reigns Story Mode expansion.
About Sektor[]
Debuting in Mortal Kombat 3, Sektor, codename LK-9T9, is a dire, menacing, and lethal cyberized ninja of the Lin Kuei clan of assassins. He represents the closest thing to evil a cyborg can possibly be, combining traits of a cold-blooded ninja, a fanatic loyalist, and a destructive killing machine fit for modern warfare. His most well-known combat abilities are his homing missile attack, teleport punch, and flamethrower.
In stark contrast to his immediate counterpart Cyrax, Sektor never bothered to rediscover his human side, and may be unable to. Even in his human form, Sektor was utterly devoted to the Lin Kuei clan and, unlike Cyrax, Sub-Zero, and Smoke, never questioned or resisted the cyberization process.
Sometime after he became a cyborg, Sektor ascended to the rank of Grandmaster by killing his father and taking over the clan. However, he was eventually usurped in both timelines (Also killed in the second one) by the younger Sub-Zero, who then went on to reform the clan altogether. While Sektor escaped to form his own clan of cyborgs.
In the current timeline, Sektor is now female and no longer related to the Lin Kuei Grandmaster, thus she does not become the Lin Kuei's Grandmaster. Instead, Sektor is an intelligent Lin Kuei assassin and engineer that works with a new version of Sub-Zero in weaponizing the Lin Kuei through cybernetics. She, alongside a new version of Cyrax, wears a cyberized suit that grants her the cybernetic abilities of her previous timeline counterparts. She is also the daughter of Madam Bo and the previous Lin Kuei armorer Longwei.
Appearance[]
As with his fellow Lin Kuei test subjects, Sektor is a cyborg ninja adorned in red armor plating. After the events of Deadly Alliance, Sektor gave himself a technological upgrade to further his conquest as leader of the cyborg ninja army, the Tekunin. The redesign changes all except his helmet completely, resembling a battle robot more than a ninja. In Mortal Kombat (2011), Sektor is given an entirely new design with a distinct manga-esque inspired style. The only thing kept from the original is the topside of his helmet featuring loose wires. An alternate costume also features him for the very first time in human form, appearing as an Asian warrior wearing a red and black gi. Unlike his reluctant partner Cyrax, he embraces technological advances, utilizing a jetpack and hidden conventional weaponry.
Character Development[]
Sektor was named "Ketchup" during early production of Mortal Kombat 3. This development title is referenced in Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance as the name of one of Cyrax's combos in his Sambo fighting style. Sektor also has a move in Mortal Kombat: Armageddon called "Ketchup's Revenge".
There is a noted similarity between the designs of both the Mortal Kombat cyborgs and the Predator, the alien from the eponymous movie. Certain elements of both characters' armor resemble each other, and as for Sektor, he is shown using an active camouflage unit during Armageddons Konquest mode as well as in Mortal Kombat (2011).
Sektor's appearance originally resembled an armored ninja; this appearance was used as a palette swap template for Cyrax and Smoke. This appearance was kept through Mortal Kombat Gold. After the series' transition into full 3D, which allowed for more non-human design possibilities, the cyber ninja template changed with Cyrax in Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance. Sektor received an exact replica of Cyrax's design change with a red recolor; the lower body appears more mechanical, yet the head remains the same. Sektor retained this appearance in Mortal Kombat: Tournament Edition. He finally received his own original design in Mortal Kombat: Armageddon, leaving his helmet design the only visual link to Cyrax.
The Krypt in Armageddon has concept art of Sektor holding a weapon similar to a polearm (It is referred to as a "2-hand pulse blade"). The concept was dropped in favor of giving him two swords in the game. There's also designs of a red car for him to use in the Motor Kombat mini-game. Since Sektor wasn't included in the final version of Motor Kombat, this design wasn't used. It is possible Sektor was replaced by Cyrax as Cyrax's car is visually simply a yellow version of Sektor's car with an inverted tail.
Game Information[]
Sektor's storyline in Mortal Kombat Gold appears to have been partially retconned. He was originally assigned to survey the actions of Cyrax, who had been recovered by the Lin Kuei clan and seemed to be acting erratically. Since it was later said that Cyrax had been discovered by Jax and Sonya, Sektor's direct surveillance of him could not have successfully occurred.
In Mortal Kombat: Deception's Konquest mode, Sektor appears in the realm of Edenia and asks Shujinko to bring him needed parts from Orderrealm after an altercation with Sub-Zero.
The original version of Sektor appears in Mortal Kombat 1 as a Kameo fighter. Sektor later appears as a fully playable character as part of the Khaos Reigns Story Mode expansion.
Combat Characteristics[]
Powers and Abilities[]
As a "cybernetic organism", Sektor possesses enhanced strength and stamina, as well as great onboard weaponry. As with the case of Cyrax, he appears to specialize in long range combat. His chest cavity is loaded with rockets and heat-seeking missiles, and he has a flamethrower built into his right arm. He can also teleport for a surprise attack. Unlike the other cyborgs, Sektor embraced his new machine body and decided to upgrade it rather than remove it. As of Armageddon, he commands an entire squad of AI controlled machines built in a similar vein to his original design as well as Cyrax's new design. Due to his upgrades, he possesses a jet propulsion system on each of his joints and new armor plating. He also now has two pulse blades to verse his foes in close quarter combat if needed to. He also possesses the ability to turn invisible.
Signature Moves[]
- Chest Missile: Sektor fires a missile directly at his opponent from his chest. In MK 2011, this is called Straight Missile. In his human form, he fires it from his hands. In MK1, the move is known as Unguided Rocket, and Sektor fires a missile from a launcher. (MK3, UMK3, MKT, MKG, MK:TE, MK:A, MK 2011, MK11, MK1)
- In MK11, the amplified version tracks the opponent, similar to his Homing Missile, while dealing increased damage. When used in the corner of an arena and utilized with juggle effects, Sektor is capable of continuing combos.
- In MK1, the enhanced version is called Enhanced Incendiary Rocket and sets the opponent on fire, dealing damage over time. This attack can destroy the opponent's projectiles upon contact.
- Double Missile: Sektor fires two consecutive missiles straight at his opponent. In MK 2011, this attack acts as the enhanced version of Straight Missile, and the two missiles are fired simultaneously rather than consecutively. (MKT, MKG, MK 2011)
- Homing Missile: Sektor fires a missile that follows the opponent before exploding. In MK 2011, this move is the enhanced version of Up Missile. (MK3, UMK3, MKT, MKG, MK 2011)
- Upward Missile: Sektor fires a missile upwards, which falls back down, hitting the opponent from above. In MK 2011, the move is called Up Missile and Sektor can now fire the missile in front or behind the enemy in addition to firing it directly above them. In MK1, this is called Up Rocket, Sektor jumps onto the fightline and bends over into a bridge, firing a missile into the air that falls down. The rocket can fall down at different ranges around the opponent, called (In Front)/(Behind) Up Rocket, and at the cost of additional Kameo meter Sektor can turn the rocket into a homing missile. (MKA, MK 2011, MK1)
- Rocket Punch: Sektor teleports under his opponent and gives them a rising uppercut. This move can also be done in the air. In MK 2011, this is called Teleport Uppercut, while in MK1, this is called Tele-Punch. (MK3, UMK3, MKT, MKG, MK:TE, MK:A, MK 2011, MK11, MK1)
- The enhanced version is called Metal Uppercut. After the first hit lands, Sektor will hit the opponent a second time, slamming them into the ground.
- In MK11, the amplified version has Sektor fire a blast from his hands, dealing increased damage and bouncing the opponent, allowing for continued combo extension.
- Funky Spin Kicks: Sektor performs a spin kick while balancing on one of his legs. This attack is taken from Cyrax. (MK:TE)
- Flame Burner: Sektor fires flames at the opponent with his arm-implanted flamethrower. In MK11, when used in the corner of an arena and utilized with juggle effects, Sektor is capable of continuing combos. In MK1, this is called Flame Thrower, and Sektor releases a straight stream of fire before swinging his arms at his sides, releasing two more streams. The playable version douses the opponent in flames before knocking them away with a repulsor blast (MK:A, MK 2011, MK11, MK1)
- In MK 2011, the enhanced version is called Flame Thrower, which deals increased damage.
- In MK1, the enhanced version is called Enhanced Flamethrower Ignition and has super armor. If the flame stream doesn't connect, the repulsor blast is fired at a greater range.
- Sidewinder: Sektor fires a missile from her backpack launcher that performs a loop before moving downwards. The rocket can be fired at close, far and very far ranges or remain in the air as an anti-air attack. (MK1)
- The enhanced version locks onto the opponent.
- Burst Grenade: While in the air, Sektor uses her thrusters to soar above the ground and fires a missile downwards from her launcher. The missile can be fired at close and far ranges. (MK1)
- The enhanced version has controllable detonation and can be cancelled into other aerial Special Moves, including itself.
- Anti-Air Flak: Sektor crouches down and fires three missile from her backpack launcher that are used as an anti-air attack. (MK1)
- The enhanced version sends the opponent into the air for a juggle.
- Blast Shield: Sektor uses her manipulator arm to create a shield in front of herself. If she deflects an opponent's projectile, she can follow up with either Unguided Rocket or Sidewinder. (MK1)
- The enhanced version can be followed up with any Special Move upon successful deflection.

- The enhanced version has faster recovery, allowing for follow-up attacks.
- Thruster Boost: While in the air, Sektor uses her thrusters to propel herself upwards. Each consecutive boost after the first one costs one bar of Super meter. (MK1)
X-Ray/Fatal Blow[]
- X-Ray Move - Massive Missile: Sektor fires a powerful missile from his chest at his opponent, then immediately performs a Rocket Punch that breaks his opponent's jaw, skull, and knocks teeth out. As they fall, he charges up a powerful force palm and targets the opponent's back, which is enough to break their spine and close bones. (MK 2011)
- Fatal Blow - Massive Missile Assault: Sektor uses her armor to zap her opponent with an orbital laser strike. She then boosts towards the opponent and grabs their face with her claw, lifting them into the air, before punching their chest rapidly in mid-air, shattering their ribcage in three different places, and kicking them to the ground with her rocket-boosted foot. (MK1)
- Kameo Fatal Blow: Sektor fires multiple rockets at the opponent's body, including their forehead as they explode. (MK1)
Other Moves[]

- Throw: In contrast to many other characters, Sektor uses a very basic body slam move. (MK 2011)

- Throw: Sektor grabs his opponent, kicks them in their knee, punches them many times in quick succession under their chin, and then delivers a powerful uppercut. (MK11)
- Base Link: Sektor performs a series of advancing strikes before delivering a final double palm blast, knocking the opponent backwards. Sektor jets backwards away from the opponent to create space between them when doing this. Sektor is allowed the use of special attacks after jetting backwards. This combo is borrowed from Triborg. (MK11)
- Fourth of Ju-Die (Kameo Throw): Sektor fires four rockets at the opponent, knocking them back. (MK1)
- Skill Crane Hot Streak (Backwards Throw): Sektor uses her manipulator arm to toss the opponent behind herself and soars in the air, burning them with a flamethrower. (MK1)
- Bionic Blast: Sektor delivers a double-palm strike with her repulsors that stuns the opponent briefly. She can charge the attack to add a knockback effect or cancel it. If the attack was cancelled after being charged for some time, Sektor lets the energy disperse, powering up the next attack. (MK1)
- Psycho Ketchup Mk.1: Sektor uses her repulsors to lift off for a moment before transitioning into a powerful sliding attack. She can delay the attack by soaring above the ground (this can be cancelled into aerial Special Moves) or cancel it. (MK1)
- Fatal Error: While soaring above the ground, Sektor attacks the opponent with a knee strike and knocks them away with a front kick.
- Head Compactor: Sektor performs a spin kick, follows up with a jet-powered palm thrust and finishes with a rocket-propelled Muay Thai elbow-and-knee strike. (MK1)
Fatalities[]
- Kompactor: A large crushing device emerges out of Sektor's chest and slits itself over the opponent's head and under the opponent's feet. At Sektor's command, the compactor closes in, thus crushing the opponent to death and leaving a pile of bones behind. (MK3, UMK3, MKT, MKG, MK1)
- Flamethrower: Sektor burns the opponent to death via flamethrower that is implanted in his arm. This move reappears in MK: Armageddon and Mortal Kombat (2011), but as a special move instead of a Fatality. (MK3, UMK3, MKT, MKG)
- Super Missile: Sektor shoots out a missile that burns the opponent to death. (MK3) (Game Gear and Master System versions only)

- Robo-Sek: Sektor deploys four missiles from his frame that hover at his side as he locks on to the victim before releasing a fifth missile from his chest cavity that blows the opponent's head, torso and arms off. As they fly into the air, the other missiles find their mark and strike the disembodied body parts, vaporizing them as the legs finally collapse. In his alternate human form, the first four missiles are obtained from a device he throws and the fifth missile is launched from the armband. (MK 2011)
- The Scarecrow: Sektor launches a device onto his dazed opponent's chest. He then enters a code to his arm and the device separates, tearing apart the arms, legs, torso, and head. In his human form, he throws the device from his hand instead of firing it from his chest. (MK 2011)
- Cyber Crematorium: Sektor ignites her palm flamethrowers and fires them into her opponent's chest, causing their body to roast as several vents of flame shoot out of it, including their mouth and eye sockets. Sektor then proceeds to blast her opponent with a massive beam of fire, ripping them to pieces while leaving behind a giant burn mark on the floor. (MK1)
- The Right Stuff: Sektor backhands her opponent, grabs them from behind, and flies into the exosphere with them, freezing their body.

Appearances in Other Media[]
Film[]
Sektor appears in Mortal Kombat Legacy, portrayed by Peter Shinkoda. He and Cyrax are being transported to a facility where they argue about the Cyber Initiative, with Sektor claiming that it is the way of the future with technology further advancing. The two are then tested against two well-trained Lin Kuei agents whom they quickly defeat. They are then brought in for cybernetic enhancements, taking away their emotions but retaining their memories, making them fully obedient. After their lower bodies are removed, the armor is grafted onto their bodies (Sektor using a red colored version of Cyrax's MK 2011 model). They are then tested against Project Hydro. Though the cyborg has the upper hand, Cyrax pulls through eventually, allowing him and Sektor to overwhelm him while he watches his partner decapitate Hydro.
Television[]
Sektor made a brief appearance within the animated series, Mortal Kombat: Defenders of the Realm. In the first episode, "Kombat Begins Again", Sektor and Cyrax led an attack on Earthrealm that was thwarted by Earth's warriors and Sub-Zero. Sektor had two lines of dialog during his confrontation with Kitana. During a brief flashback scene in which he was unmasked (in episode 5: "Old Friends Never Die"), he was portrayed as an African American man with long dreadlocks. His human form had never been described in canon up until the reboot of the series.

Trivia[]
General[]
- Sektor and Cyrax's design was in part inspired by Boba Fett in The Empire Strikes Back (1980) and Predator (1987).
- Sektor and Kintaro are the only characters in the games leading up to Trilogy that are neither seen nor referenced in the first two Mortal Kombat films. Curiously, in Mortal Kombat: Annihilation, Smoke was depicted as a silver-colored version of Sektor in the film, as he was able to shoot missiles - instead of his three-pronged harpoon - from his chest.
- Although stated to be devoid of emotions, Sektor shows considerable arrogance and rage in Armageddon's Konquest mode. The explanation for this is that the programming of Sektor is deteriorating.
- Also, even though he only shows anger because of this, in MK 2011, he laughs when his Rocket Punch connects, as well as when he is about to perform a Fatality.
- Deception's Konquest mode depicts Sektor as speaking in third person, while in Armageddon's Konquest mode, he speaks in the first person.
- Sektor is the first of three Lin Kuei assassins to willingly undergo cyberization from the Cyber Initiative, the second being Triborg, with Frost being the third. All previous Lin Kuei who had been cyberized had been converted against their will.
- In Mortal Kombat: Legacy, Cyrax appears with his MK 2011 design while Sektor does not. Sektor simply utilizes Cyrax's design but re-colored red.
- Sektor is one of the few characters to be dead in both the original and current timelines.
Mortal Kombat 3/Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3/Mortal Kombat Trilogy[]
- Unlike Cyrax and Smoke in MK3 and UMK3, Sektor is the only cyborg to have Fatalities that don't kill him along with the opponent. Both Cyrax's Explosion and Smoke's Oblivion Fatalities in MK3 show both characters getting killed along with the opponent they beat. Sektor's Fatalities on the other hand only kill the opponent, not himself with them.
- In Mortal Kombat 3 and its updates, Sektor is the only cybernetic ninja to have a unique versus portrait.
- In MK3, despite having been clearly stated in his biography to be soulless, Sektor can still produce a soul during Kabal's Freaky Face Fatality. However, this is merely a gameplay mechanic.
Mortal Kombat Gold[]
- In Sektor's Mortal Kombat Gold ending, when he is shooting missiles at Sonya, Jax, and Cyrax, a couple of original MK3 voice samples can be heard in the background.
Mortal Kombat: Deception[]
- In Deception's Konquest mode, attacking Sektor will cause him to proclaim "ERROR, ERROR." Also, instead of oil coming out of him as it usually would, Sektor bleeds normal human blood when attacked.
Mortal Kombat: Armageddon[]
- In the Konquest Mode for Armageddon, Sektor's characteristics, mannerisms and even his voice bares a striking resemblance to Darth Vader from A New Hope (1977).
- Also in Konquest Mode for Armageddon, Sektor can be attacked in the first part right when the mode starts. If the player keeps punching around, they'll hit something and a health bar with Sektor's name will appear. Whether or not this is a glitch is still a mystery.
- In Sektor's ending, he, Cyrax, and Smoke merged together and became one mind through the power of Blaze. This might serve as the basis of the concept behind Triborg.
Mortal Kombat (2011)[]
- Sektor and Noob Saibot are the most commonly fought enemy in the Story Mode, being fought five times each.
- It was revealed that Sektor had long embraced modern day weaponry before his automation. His alternate human form, along with Cyrax's, were given unique animations for their special moves separate of their cyborg forms. Sektor utilized wrist-mounted flamethrowers with portable missile launchers. The only supernatural ability he utilized was to warp himself close to his opponent for a surprise attack.
- Sektor and Cyrax received Klassic Costumes, the first free DLC for the game.
- According to his bio in MK 2011, Sektor is the son of the Lin Kuei Grandmaster.
- When Kenshi performs his Scatterbrained Fatality on Sektor in his human form, Sektor's eyes do not pop out on the third impact. This may be a glitch since Cyrax's eyes pop out.
- Through his dialogue after being transformed, it can be inferred that Sektor was the only ninja not given any slaving protocols. This is probably because he was in favor of the initiative, as well as his blood relation to the Grandmaster.
- Sektor, along with Cyrax, are the only two characters with two different battle cries and health bar images due to both their cyborg and human forms.
- Sektor is one of the three characters, along with Kitana and Kenshi, whose X-Ray Move is activated as a projectile.
Mortal Kombat X[]
- Sektor's severed head cameos in the game's Story Mode during Scorpion's Chapter. It is revealed during this that he had allied with Quan Chi in the slaughter of Scorpion's family and clan.
- Sektor's severed head would cameo again in the reveal trailer for the game's Kombat Pack 2, where he would be one of four cyberzied Lin Kuei integrated into the DLC fighter Triborg.
Injustice 2[]
- In the DC fighting game Injustice 2, although he is not mentioned by Sub-Zero or Raiden who are featured as playable guest characters, Sektor is referenced as one of Sub-Zero's shaders, a red shader called Cyber Initiative (Alternate).
- Additionally, Sektor's name also appears on some of Sub-Zero's gear.
Mortal Kombat 11[]
- Sektor reappears in the game's Story Mode alongside Cyrax as a non-playable, fightable characters.
- The two also appear in the Towers of Time both as physical and non-physical support modifiers, with their movesets being imported from Triborg's appearance in Mortal Kombat X.
- It is revealed that Johnny Cage was unaware of Sektor still being alive during the Netherrealm invasion of Earthrealm, only to discover he was killed by a restored Sub-Zero after the invasion.
- Despite being the Grandmaster of Cyber Lin Kuei, a now cyberized Frost takes over as the Cyber Lin Kuei's Grandmaster from Sektor.
Mortal Kombat 1[]
- Sektor's virtue is presented as "Perfection".
- Sektor, along with Cyrax, originally appear in the game as part of the Kameo Fighter roster. They both reappear as part of the Kombat Pack 2 as fully playable characters, receiving new designs like many of the reimagined character.
- Sektor is mentioned during Sub-Zero's Arcade ending, which would later cause confusion in the community due to another unidentified character beginning tests for the timeline's version of the Cyber Initiative, with many believing this person was Sektor, this not being the case.
- Besides the Kameo version of the character, this version of Sektor, along with Cyrax, is female.
- This marks the first time in the series that a character was gender-swapped from their original appearance.
- Although one can argue about Janet Cage, Janet is a variant of Johnny from a different timeline, while Sektor and Cyrax's gender-swap happen in the current, main timeline.
- This marks the first time in the series that a character was gender-swapped from their original appearance.
- Like many of the Kombat Pack 2 characters, Sektor was leaked several times before her official reveal.
Errors[]
- In MK 2011, when teleporting into the match for his intro, there's a chance that his wire hair will stretch out and glitch when teleporting in. This also happens in his human form.
- In MK 2011, if Sektor is in his human form when a Babality is performed on him, he will cry tears of oil like his cyborg form, and his facial expression will remain mostly static. This is likely an oversight, as performing a Babality on Cyrax's human form does not have this error.
