Trivia
Jerrod's first physical appearance in any of the Mortal Kombat games is in Ermac's ending of MK9, which cannot be considered canon. In this ending, it is revealed that Jerrod is one of the thousands of souls that make up Ermac. When Shao Kahn is defeated, Ermac is no longer beholden to him and the souls fight for dominance. Jerrod is victor and returns to Edenia as Ermac to rule alongside Queen Sindel and Princess Kitana.
In Mortal Kombat 1, the MK9 ending is somewhat canonized when it is revealed that Jerrod's soul was among those harvested from the Living Forest when Quan Chi created Ermac. After Ermac is defeated by Mileena and Tanya, Jerrod soul is able to take control of Ermac's body and reunite with his family. Shortly after this, Sindel is killed by an alternate timeline version of herself. Jerrod is able to absorb her soul into the body of Ermac where she now resides along with the thousands of other souls within this vessel.
