Siro (Mortal Kombat)[edit]

Siro is a main character in the television series Mortal Kombat: Conquest, and was played by Daniel Bernhardt.

He met Baron Reyland, owner of the city trading post, and was hired as the bodyguard for his daughter, Jen. In his line of duty, he meets Kung Lao, Jen’s lover, and Taja, a thief who was caught trying to rob them and was pressed into the Baron's servitude. Siro was fired after he failed to prevent Kung Lao from seeing Jen. In his banishment, he encounters a beggar who is actually the thunder god Raiden in disguise, who warned him that Jen was in danger.

As Siro returned to the trading post and found Kung Lao and Taja, the trio is ambushed by Baron Reyland and his guards. In the melee, Takeda, Siro's replacement, kills the Baron, takes Jen hostage and reveals he is actually Scorpion, sent by Shang Tsung to kill Kung Lao. Scorpion attacks the group and is defeated, but not before he kills Jen. Siro, feeling responsible for her death, aligns himself with Kung Lao and Taja to train new heroes to protect the world from evil.

Siro is killed by the Shadow Priests along with Taja and Kung Lao in the final episode of Conquest. The series was cancelled before a proper ending was devised as this episode was intentionally meant as a dream sequence, had the series continued.
