==About Sonya==
[[File:MK3-04_Sonya_Blade.png|thumb|left|''MK3'' Character Design by John Tobias]]A member of a top United States [[Special Forces]] unit, Sonya Blade is a beautiful, stern, tough-as-nails lieutenant. Her impulsiveness is catalyzed by her superior and good friend, Major [[Jax|Jackson "Jax" Briggs]]. Sonya represents a very emancipated and headstrong woman, but for all her stubbornness and pride, she deeply cares about the lives of her friends and comrades. She has a long-standing enmity with the thug, [[Kano]], who had murdered a former partner of hers, and stands for everything Sonya despises.

Sonya has the power to fire and manipulate pink-colored energy, as well as gain temporary flight (or at the very least the ability to maneuver in air). Her abilities are vast, mostly based on agility, as well as deadly and impressive due to her Special Forces training. She is very fast in combat, using quick, effective kicks and strikes. Another note is that Sonya, like the rest of the female kombatants, or any, does not possess as much knowledge of traditional martial arts as she did in previous games. However, unlike Mileena, it has made her more deadly in combat, as her moves are much faster.

She is also, along with Liu Kang, Nightwolf, Johnny Cage, Jax, Sub-Zero, Smoke, Kabal and Stryker, one of Raiden's Chosen Warriors, being the only Earthrealm female with the honor and, thus, one of the strongest fighters not only in Earthrealm, but all the realms.

[[File:Mortal_Kombat_Jeri_Ryan_Sonya_Blade.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Jeri Ryan as Sonya Blade in ''Mortal Kombat: Legacy'']]In this web series, Jeri Ryan reprises her role as Sonya Blade. In "Jax, Sonya and Kano" she is seen spying on a Black Dragon warehouse. Sonya attempts to transmit a report to Jax but Kano found her and delayed its transmission for two days, enough time for the Black Dragon's "Cyber Initiative" shipment to take place. When Jax, Stryker and the rest of the Special Forces ambush the warehouse, a grenade misfired from a grenade launcher during Jax and Kano's fight dislodged her chains, being below the ceiling, allowing Sonya to break free. She then flees to find Jax, taking out a henchman, but not before he launches a grenade at Jax. Jax then runs to Sonya, protecting her from the blast with his arms. Both survive but are hospitalized, and Jax's arms were blown off, though Stryker "has a plan for him", referring to the installment of Jax's cybernetic arms. Ryan won't be back as Sonya in season 2, due to her work on the ABC series ''Body of Proof''.
