Moveset:
Standard Attack – Star Screamer: Sindel screams an ancient word of power which manifests as one or two purple energy bolts in the air. These stun temporarily and have a strong knockback effect. If this is used during a jump or during Levitate, the bolts are projected downwards diagonally.
(R)Upward Attack – Levitate: Sindel floats into the air and is suspended there until she is hit or loses her concentration. During this time, she is somewhat ethereal in nature and can be considered lightweight in terms of type while in this state.
Downward Attack – Sliding Foot Grab: Sindel propels herself forward, very closely to the ground and thus avoiding projectiles. If she manages to grab someone along the way, her legs bend backwards into a handstand and she boots them in the face, knocking them to the ground. Works similarly to Ganondorf's Flame Choke.
Side Attack – Kwan Dao: Sindel brings out her Kwan Dao and moves into a twirling assault with it while striding forwards. Anyone caught in her path will receive several rapid blows of damage. She may finish it off with either a horizontal stabbing blow or a vertical slash movement, either of which deal greater damage if they connect successfully with an opponent.
Grabs:
Grab 1
Sindel grapples the opponent up-close by hooking a foot around them.
Grab Attack - Sindel flips her grappling-foot out to deal the opponent a blow to the head
Up Throw - Grabbing the opponent's upper torso with both hands, Sindel hops up and plants both her feet in the opponent's stomach, rolling onto her back and launching them upwards.
Back Throw - Hopping up, Sindel places her grappling-foot up on the opponent's shoulder, leaps upwards and deals them a spinning kick to the head, knocking them back behind her.
Forward Throw - Repositioning her grappling-foot, Sindel kicks into the opponent's stomach with it, and uses her other foot to deal a backwards-flipping kick which knocks the opponent forwards.
Down Throw - Bringing her other foot up to grapple onto the opponent too, Sindel uses both feet to stomp the opponent down onto the ground beneath her.
Grab 2
Sindel lashes out with her long hair, which seems to stretch out and ensnare the oppoent, or grab a ledge
Grab Attack - She gives her hair a tug, tightening her grip on the opponent.
Up Throw - Levitating into the air, Sindel whips her hair around in a full circle using momentum to launch the opponent into the air while she descends back to the ground.
Back Throw - Whipping her hair backwards, the opponent flips over Sindel's head and slams into the ground behind her.
Forward Throw - Giving a quick jerk of her head, Sindel sends a whip-crack along her hair which knocks the opponent away.
Down throw - With a powerful tug, Sindel pulls her hair away sending the opponent into a spin which makes them collapse to the ground.
Final Smash:
Banshee Scream – Tapping into her undead side, Sindel unleashes a terrible howling scream learned from her time spent tormented in the Netherealm. Her hair comes alive and lashes out in all directions while she throws her head around, screaming. Those caught in range of her lashing tendrils of hair suffer damage, while those caught in her sound waves are heavily stunned. The very end of the scream unleashes a purple wave of eldritch energy which blasts anyone caught in it away offscreen. This works in a similar fashion to DK's Konga Beat Final Smash.
Weaknesses:
Sindel is on the lighter end of the middleweight spectrum, making her take damage and suffer knockback to a higher degree than most in the middleweight class. This is especially true while she is in a state of Levitation. She is also a heavily conflicted person, having suffered death and undeath, becoming evil and back again while having the burden of an entire kingdom on her shoulders the entire time. Having endured a very long lifetime of suffering, she occasionally finds it difficult to maintain focus.
Personality:
Sindel is a tragic sort, having been driven to such despair as to take her own life once before, and then forcefully brought back to face her suffering once more. Having seen what lies beyond the mortal realm, she sometimes appears distant and detached from the world. Since regaining her independence, Sindel has strived to embrace life again, both as a devoted mother to her daughter, Kitana, and as a strong queen for her people to look to in their time of need. Yet, privately, she will always mourn the loss of her first husband, Jerrod - a pain which she has never really gotten over.
Likes:
Peace (both inner and outer), harmony, justice, diplomacy, the pursuit of arts (particularly martial arts), self-discipline, spirituality, ancient lore, honouring the dead and her daughter, Kitana.
Dislikes:
Tyrants and dictators, slavery, selfishness, dark sorcery, betrayal and dishonourable actions.

History:
(TEMPLATE)
Sindel's storyline begins tragically 10,000 years ago, when her kingdom was invaded by Shao Kahn, and she was forced to watch as her husband, King Jerrod was killed, her people enslaved, and then-infant Kitana adopted by Kahn as his daughter. This proved too much for her as a mother, wife, and queen, and soon after the invasion, she committed suicide.
However, this would not be the end of her. Gaining aid from the Elder God Shinnok, Shao Kahn would conspire to bring her back to life, but not in Outworld. Instead, her resurrection would take place on Earth, which would allow Shao Kahn to step through the borders separating the realms and claim her for himself, thus forcing a merger between Earth and Outworld. She would also be revived in a brainwashed state, with no knowledge of her past and having complete loyalty to Kahn. After the sorcerer Shang Tsung failed to secure Earth via the Mortal Kombat tournament, Kahn implemented this plan, and was partially successful; Sindel was reborn just as was planned, and Kahn was able to garner a partial merger of the realms by her revival before Earth's warriors defeated him. However, Kahn didn't just lose Earth in his defeat; Kitana - realizing that her mother was alive - succeeded in procuring an audience with her and convincing her of her true past, thus turning Sindel against the emperor. As Kahn's defeat also succeeded in separating it from their homerealm of Edenia, Sindel took up her rightful place on its throne, and vowed not only to rebuild their home, but to also bring down Shao Kahn for his many crimes.
However, those plans had to wait, as one of Sindel's people, the daughter of an Edenian ambassador to the realms named Tanya, betrayed her homeland and allowed the Netherrealm forces of the fallen Elder God Shinnok to invade the palace. Though Kitana got away, Sindel herself was captured and held in her own dungeon until Shinnok's forces were defeated. Enraged at this latest invasion on her kingdom, Sindel sent Kitana to form an alliance with the Shokan armies and lead them into battle against a weakened Shao Kahn while she continued to help restore Edenia to its former beauty.
Unfortunately, Sindel plans on restoring Edenia would once again have to wait. The formantion of the Deadly Alliance, it brought conflict between Kitana and her alliance, they were slain in battle only to be later resurrected by Onaga the Dragon King as mindless warriors under his control. Edenia eventually fell to Onaga, and Sindel was locked away in one of his dungeons with the brainwashed Kitana serving as her guard. With the aid of the traitor, Tanya, he would begin to scour the kingdom for the missing Kamidogu, the sources of his true power. Luckily, Jade managed to defeat Kitana, free Sindel and escape with her to Outworld. There they tracked down Dragon King's tomb, where Onaga's original body was interred. Sindel prepared the ancient spell which would draw his soul back to his prison. But, the Dragon King was well aware of their plot and had sent Kitana to eliminate them. As Jade fended off the Princess, Sindel thrust her Kwan Dao into the corpse and screamed the spell that returned Onaga to his tomb, defeating him at last. With the tyrant gone, his hold over Kitana's mind was broken and she was finally reunited with her mother. Peace had been restored to Edenia, once again.
