Originally introduced as a bloody skeleton without a canonical story in Mortal Kombat 4 and Mortal Kombat Gold, Meat is a human-like being that possesses a genetically-altered composition. He made his first official appearance as a fighter in Mortal Kombat: Armageddon with a more muscular physique, depicted as a person that only has skinless human flesh with one of his eyes hanging out of its socket and blood constantly flowing down his body. This appears in the same amount as the blood in the rest of the game, and also disappears altogether when the blood level in the options is turned off.
Meat's backstory in Armageddon, actually revealed during his game ending, stated that he was a horrific experiment created by Shang Tsung. He escaped the sorcerer's clutches before he could be fully completed. The official strategy guide for the game describes Meat as being "a fun character who assists Shinnok," although this relationship is not made clear in the story.
Signature moves
Head Roll
Meat tears off his head and rolls it at his enemy like a bowling ball. (MK:A)
Meat Leg Slide
Meat slides to his opponent with a kick, leaving a trail of blood behind. (MK:A)
Body Mutilation
Meat stretches the nerve holding the eye that's hanging out of its socket and then lets it snap back. This move serves as a taunt for Meat and heals him when done in combat. (MK:A)
Flesh Teleport
Meat falls flat on his face and disappears in a bloody gunk, reappearing in the same fashion behind his opponent. (MK:A)
