Kombat Rebooted
Originating from Prague, Tomas Vrbada was recruited by the Lin Kuei for his impressive ability to escape capture. Able to transform into a wisp of smoke, his talent has proved useful on countless missions. Smoke has no memory of his childhood. His only family is the Lin Kuei, more specifically the younger Sub-Zero, who is like a brother to him. It has been Smoke's hope that through the Lin Kuei he will discover his past--and the origin of his power.
The Wrath of Kahn
In his human form, Smoke was a lethal assassin working for the Lin Kuei. But when they decide to automate their ninjas, Smoke is caught in the middle. He becomes a cyborg assassin. From that day forward his human form would exist as only a memory.

When the Lin Kuei decide to automate their warriors, the two attmept to escape. While Sub-Zero successfully eluded capture, Smoke did not. He would become a robotic nightmare, his soul trapped inside a living machine. In his human form, Smoke was a fierce warrior, in his mechanical body he is even more lethal. But, his true form is that of a human, one he'll know again only in dreams.

Fun Facts
Non-Smoking Section
In the emulated version of Mortal Kombat II included in the Xbox and PlayStation 2 action game "Mortal Kombat: Shaolin Monks", due to Pause being configured on the controller as Start, it is impossible to fight against Smoke. The irony in this, is that in order to unlock MKII within Shaolin Monks, you must complete a series of quests given to you... by Smoke.

This flub was also present in Midway Arcade Treasures 2's emulation of the game, but the irony is lost there.
