Kenshi is a character in Midway's latest incarnation of the Mortal Kombat series, Mortal Kombat Deadly Alliance.

Kenshi unknowingly released the souls of his ancestors and was turned blind by Shang Tsung's trickery. Kenshi quests to slay his deciever using the sword of his ancestors to regain his honor and his ancestors freedom.

While his hand-to-hand combat is more than adequate, Blind Kenshi is an excellent swordsman, arguably the best in the game. Using his Ninja Sword's quick and damaging combo's while in close combat combined with Telekinetic moves at a distance make Kenshi a force to be reckoned with, definately one of MKDA's better characters.
