Ghislaine Laure LaLaurie (simply called Ghislaine in-game) is a character in the Mortal Kombat fighting game series. She is the daughter of Delphine LaLaurie, and the middle child of the three children her mother bore with her third husband. She is also a cannibal. 

About Ghislaine

Desire-driven with a knack for being hypocritical in her statements, she is an easily untrustworthy character. Yet she has no history of being found out in her rather antagonistic ways, making her come off as a purely sweet and considerate Southern belle who has no other concern besides making those around her feel warm and welcome.

As expected of a cannibal, she's not afraid to, and even embraces, getting down and dirty.

She and her siblings have close ties with the Black Dragon clan. Their reasons for this is not clear, but it is heavily implied she takes their arms trafficking as imports in order to sell them elsewhere.

Appearance

She is a Caucasian young woman that has olive green eyes and dark cinnamon hair normally worn in a half crown braid hairstyle that falls to her shoulders. In every one of her variations, she wears perfectly applied rose red lipstick. Her teeth have also been purposefully sharpened.

Her normal outfit consists of a black coat that has round cuffs with a white trim, a white collared shirt, leather pants, a voodoo talisman belt hanging off her hips, and knee-high combat boots.

Her alternate outfit, Summor, is an a-line dress that stops just above her knees, a wrapping around the waist, complete with hand bandages and black Savate shoes.

If the Challenge Towers are completed (on any mode) with her, the player gains the Peachy Keen skin. It consists of a red collared shirt, though she wears the sleeves rolled up to her elbows and tied at the bottom so that it shows a white crop top, blue shorts, ripped fishnet stockings, and brown shoes. Her sleeveless gloves are white.

Combat Characteristics

Powers and Abilities

She is intermediately skilled in Savate, and uses kicks as debilitation before her strong suit, Rough-and-tumble fighting, is shown. Also called Gouging, the style focuses on dismembering, and ultimately gouging out the eyes of the opponent. Her teeth have been filed from a young age, and as such she capitalizes on taking down and biting off various areas of the body.
