The transmission is lost, but Jax seeks out Johnny Cage to apologize for not believing him and ascertain more information. His opinion is quickly reversed when Sonya contacts him, reluctantly working with Kano to try and escape Outworld. Cage explained the strange, supernatural occurrences in Shang Tsung's tournament, but Jax refused to believe the fantastic story and let Cage go, assuming he knew nothing. The movie star was interrogated to ascertain if he knew anything about their whereabouts. Sonya and Kano both went missing at the conclusion of the tournament and Jax was left with no clues as to their whereabouts until Johnny Cage was discovered unconscious near the Special Forces headquarters. Kano, however, eluded imprisonment to enter the Mortal Kombat tournament unbeknown to the Special Forces. His job done, he removed the upgrades from his arms. The rivals finally clashed, Jax winning and bringing Kano back into custody in Earthrealm. Defeating further Black Dragon Lieutenants, Jax discovered a portal to Outworld and sought Kano through it. Receiving another transmission about a high-rise in another part of the city that is being used to front the criminal organization's activities, Jax arrived and defeated Jarek, discovering information about a fabled lost city called Sin Kiang. Jax outfitted his arms with cybernetic enhancements and entered the warehouse and defeated a pair of the escaped Black Dragon lieutenants, as well as defeating countless unnamed henchman. The transmission was suddenly cut and Jax arrived to find the squad dead. He received another transmission from a Special Forces squad who had arrived on the scene of a warehouse the convicts had fled to. The two became rivals after Briggs failed to apprehend him, but disfigured his face, causing Kano to wear his trademarked metal faceplate. As Jax received information about the jailbreak, which involved the Black Dragon's highest lieutenants, he assumed that Kano was involved.
Jax's first canonical appearance was in Mortal Kombat: Special Forces in which the Black Dragon clan of assassins broke out of a maximum-security prison and Jax, along with Sonya Blade, was dispatched to pursue them. He is first portrayed as simply a physically powerful soldier, but in later games he appears with cybernetic arms which often feature prominently in his Fatalities. He is comparable to the Street Fighter franchise's Guile in that he is portrayed as the perfect American soldier: determined, moral and powerful. Major Jackson "Jax" Briggs was introduced in Mortal Kombat II as a member of the Special Forces on a mission to rescue his partner, Sonya Blade, from the clutches of the emperor, Shao Kahn. Alignment: Good Species: Human Origin: Earthrealm Allies: Sonya Blade, Liu Kang Enemies: Kano
