Bio:

Alexandra Roivas is a Washington university student in abstract mathematics. She woke up one morning to learn that her father had been killed in the Rhode Island mansion. As she investigates her father's murder, she discovered a mysterious book of eldritch proportions called the Tome of Eternal Darkness. With the tome, she has the knowledge of various people with historical records written on it and arcane magic, though with the risk of losing her own sanity.

Special Attacks:

  • Gladius Combo: A move that is accompanied by follow-ups in which Alexandra starts slashing away at her opponent with every input added in.
  • Shotgun: Alexandra gets out a shotgun and fires at her opponent.
  • Magickal Attack: Alexandra shoots red lightning from runes that appear in front of her and the red lightning hits her opponent.
  • Damage Field: Alexandra summons a blue forcefield around her and the forcefield emits blue lightning at her opponent.
  • Orbital Shield: Alexandra summons three green floating orbs around herself that can protect her from attacks. Each orb will vanish when an attack hits her.

Fatalities:

  • Summoning the Ancients: A multi-option fatality in which you can summon either one of the following.
  • -Y/Chattur'gha: Alexandra summons Chattur'gha and Chattur'gha reaches one of his crab-like claws down at Alexandra's opponent, snipping the opponent torso off.
  • -X/Ulyaoth: Alexandra summons Ulyaoth and Ulyaoth summons a portal under Alexandra's opponent. The opponent falls and the portal closes. Another portal opens in the sky and out emits the opponent's inner organs and bloody pieces of his/her skeletal system as they all fall to the ground in front of Ulyaoth.
  • -A/Xel'lotath: Alexandra summons Xel'lotath and Xel'lotath makes copies of herself around Alexandra's opponent. The Xel'lotaths all fire electricity-like energy beams at the opponent and blow him/her up.
  • Gladius Execution: Alexandra starts off by decapitating her opponent. She then chops the headless opponent's right arm off and as the headless opponent kneels down, Alexandra swings the gladius down and splits the body in half.
  • Shotgun of Death: Alexandra gets out her shotgun and starts shooting the opponent multiple times, first in arms, then he legs, and finally, the chest. As the opponent is staggering in pain, Alexandra shoots him/her in the head, causing it to explode in bloody fashion.

X-Ality:

  • Enchant Item: Alexandra chants "Mantorok, Antorbok, Magormor." and is engulfed in purple lightning. Alexandra thrusts the gladius into her opponent's chest, impaling through the sternum and heart. She then pulls out the gladius and stabs the opponent in his/her mouth. She finishes by turning the gladius upward, causing the opponent's head to bend so high that the spinal neck begins to snap. After Alexandra pulls the gladius out, the opponent falls to his/her death.

Friendship:

Alexandra strolls in a chalkboard and her opponent gets a chair and sits on it. Alexandra writes algebra on the chalkboard and teaches it to her opponent.

Intro Sequence:

We're treated with a page of paper and then come a drawing of Alexandra before it shifts to her in 3D form. She is in the battlefield reading a few lines from the Tome of Eternal Darkness before closing it and putting it away.

Victory Sequence:

Alexandra sees the ghost of her father, Edward Roivas. The ghost says, "Remember me, Alex?" and Alexandra reaches out for him before he vanishes. Alexandra looks around.

Associated Stage:

Roivas Mansion

Ending:

Alexandra Roivas's sanity had begun to mush even after the world merge crisis was over. She fell into a deep sleep and had a nightmarish dream. In that dream, Pious Augustus held her newfound allies, Sonya Blade and Raiden, hostage. She had to choose because of Pious who gets to live while the other will serve as an offering to his Ancient. She reluctantly chose one ally, which was Raiden, while Sonya was sacrificed to Pious Augustus's Ancient. She was awoken by her father's spirit, who gave her troubling news that Sonya Blade bled out from injuries received by Ganon Kahn.
Didn't expect another entry so soon? Think again. Coming from the Nintendo universe is none other than the heroine from the criminally underrated GameCube gem, Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem. That heroine is Alexandra Roivas.

Notes and Trivia:
  • Alexandra Roivas' rival is Nitara. I figured we could have someone who looks like Buffy the Vampire Slayer and fights monsters up against a monster (or in this case, a vampire).
  • Alexandra's Orbital Shield is somewhat similar to Black Adam's character trait (Orb of Seth) from Injustice: Gods Among Us, only it doesn't hurt the opponent who touches it.
  • Alexandra's first Fatality is similar to the multi-option Stage Fatality in Kratos's associated stage in the PS3 version of Mortal Kombat 9.
  • Alexandra's ending is similar to Sonya's ending in Mortal Kombat X. Only Jax and Cassie Cage are replaced with Raiden and Sonya, Kano is replaced with Pious Augustus, and Johnny Cage is replaced with Alexandra's father (albeit, in the form of a spirit), Edward Roivas.

I'm confused. Why is Mantorok not included in her first fatality? And secondly, why not Tremor as her rival? An good, mentally damaged girl (Alexanda) vs an evil, mentally enhanced boy (Tremor). It would give an extra factor of "Flesh" vs "Stone"
