Bio:
There is an urban legend revolving around a malicious spirit named Candyman. Those who say his name 5 times in a mirror witness and get gutted by him. Candyman was once a human in Earthrealm, during the days of American slavery. Originally named Daniel Robatille, he was a son of a slave who fell in love with a white woman and was caught by the oppressive slave masters. They punished him by severing his right hand and smearing his body with honey so that bees would come to sting him to death. After his death, his soul was dragged to the Netherrealm where he would then be resurrect by the malevolent sorcerer Quan Chi as his apprentice. Now an undead hellspawn with a hook as a replacement for his dismembered right hand, Candyman brings terror in the heart of mortals, especially those who believe in him.

Special Attacks:
*Bee-Sphere: Candyman shoots a ball composed of bees at his opponent.
*Candycrescent: He uses his hook to form a big purple glowing crescent by swinging it up. The crescent slowly charges toward the opponent until it hits him/her.
*Hook Up: This is how he uppercuts his opponent up into the air. He swoops up towards him/her by using his hook.
*Hook-Down: Candyman can parry by standing still whiles bees swarm around him. If the opponent hits, he disappears and reappears in the air swooping down towards his opponent.
*Ghostly Teleport: He teleports behind his opponent.

X-Ray Move:
Candyman jabs his hook into the opponent's chest, breaking the ribcage and piercing the heart. He then uses his hook again to slash his opponent in the face, fracturing the skull. Afterwards, he kicks him/her down to the ground.

Fatalities:
*Buzzing Death: Candyman opens his trench coat and and summons bees from his ribcage to fly towards his opponent and cover him/her up. The bee-covered opponent screams in terror as the bees sting him/her everywhere. 5 seconds later, the bees fly off of the tortured opponent, who then becomes a skinless body and falls apart completely, and return to Candyman's ribcage.
*Be My Victim: Candyman jams his hook on top of his opponent's head, followed by an X-Ray animation of the hook piercing the brain, With the hook on his opponent's head, he pulls his hook toward himself, ripping the opponent's head off along with the spine. He shows the severed head on his hook with the spine dangling in the end.

Babality:
Baby Candyman tries to pick up a bottle of milk with his hook but it doesn't work because the hook stabs the bottle and milk starts pouring out where the bottle was stabbed. He doesn't give a damn and decides to just drink the milk that pouring out of the damaged bottle.

Candyman says "In death, you will become legend." and opens his trench coat to release a swarm of bees all over the place.

Stage:
none

Ending:
Candyman has been serving both Quan Chi and Shinnok or years, but this time, he was about to find out the ugly truth behind his death. Quan Chi has admitted that back when Candyman was a mortal by the name of Daniel Robatille, he helped slave drivers find where he was hiding. Back in the 1800s, when Daniel was revealed to have fallen in love with Caroline, the daughter of a rich landowner, he became a target of plantation owners, Quan Chi appeared in Earthrealm during that time, disguised as a fully-covered wanderer. He came up to the lynch mob just as they finally caught Daniel. Quan Chi while in his disguise, persuaded the angry mob to torture him to death. Quan Chi wanted it to happen so that he can resurrect Daniel Robatille in the Netherrealm in his goal in creating an undead army for Shinnok's forces. Enraged that Quan Chi masterminded his gruesome torture, Candyman gutted the sorcerer to death and tore out all of his entrails and fed his soon-to-die body to a horde of bees. With Quan Chi dead, Candyman came out of his control. He still kills mortals in Earthrealm who summon him via the infamous "Candyman ritual", this time in his own accord.
Who can take a sunrise? Sprinkle it in dew? Cover it in chocolate and a miracle in two? The candyman. Oh the candyman can....

...WTF am I saying? That's not the candyman this guest fighter entry's about. It's the slasher Candyman that this is a guest fighter entry for. One of the many horror villains thought up by Clive Barker himself. Hell, with Mortal Kombat being the dark fantasy gore-fest that it is, any monster from a Clive Barker project would fit perfectly as a DLC. If you've seen my guest fighter entry for Pinhead from Hellraiser (also done by Clive Barker) from last year, you pretty much get the idea I'm going at.
