About Drahmin
Drahmin made his debut in Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance as one of two Oni, demons of the 5th plane of the Netherealm. He wields an iron club, mounted on his right arm. The mask he wears is an artifact called the Face of Kun-Lo. Wearing it allows him to control his rage and fight with his disciplined Netherealm style. But removing it causes him to go into Oni style, where he loses his focus and attacks with murderous insanity.
Drahmin was not always a demon. Centuries ago, he was a cruel human warlord in Outworld. For his crimes, he was exiled to the Netherealm where his body and soul were to be tortured for all eternity. As the years dragged on, he fell further and further into insanity until his humanity was lost all together. He eventually accepted his fate and submitted to the power of the Netherealm. He re-emerged from the Netherrealm depths as Drahmin: the Oni Tormentor.
Storyline
The two Oni known as Moloch and Drahmin are reluctant allies. They roamed the 5th plane of the Netherealm in search of damned souls to torment. After many centuries the two demons came upon a battling Scorpion and Quan Chi. Quan Chi, sorely pressed by Scorpion, pleaded for aid from the Oni. Drahmin and Moloch intervened and drove off Scorpion. Demanding payment for their services, Quan Chi agreed to liberate them from Netherealm. The Oni agreed, and they led the sorcerer to an ancient structure rumoured to be a gateway to other realms.
Quan Chi studied the ruins and discovered that it was a dormant portal, and could be used with Shinnok's amulet, now in his possession. Suddenly, Scorpion attacked again and Quan Chi took advantage of the distraction to activate the portal and escape from the Netherrealm. The portal had not yet closed before all four managed to pass through. The two Oni found themselves in Outworld, with Scorpion and Quan Chi nowhere to be seen, enraged by the sorcerer's betrayal.
Now free, Drahmin and Moloch began searching for Quan Chi. They scoured the wastelands and killed all they encountered. Before their encounter with Shang Tsung, they encountered the cyborg Cyrax and Li Mei, both of whom escaped the Oni's clutches. Shang Tsung found the pair after he and Quan Chi had formed the Deadly Alliance, and employed them as a safeguard measure against any treachery from his partner. He kept the Oni hidden beneath his palace and paid the Oni with both mortals to feed upon and the promise of revenge against Quan Chi.
While waiting for their opportunity, the Oni once again encountered Scorpion. This time, the demons overcame the ninja spectre. Knowing that they themselves were unable to destroy him, they instead disposed of him by throwing him into the soulnado.
Possible future
In Drahmin's ending from Deadly Alliance, he fell into the glowing "egg" in Quan Chi's fortress while fighting the sorcerer and emerged fundamentally changed (exactly how is not mentioned). No information regarding his current fate was given in Deception. Along with nearly every other playable character from the series' past, Drahmin is slated to reappear in the upcoming game Mortal Kombat: Armageddon.
Fatalities
Club Beating: Drahmin bashes the opponents head in with a downward swing of his club. The body walks around in a circle for a second, then Drahmin hits the body with his club knocking it to the floor.
Trivia
The original name for Drahmin was going to be Amon. It was changed during preproduction of MK: DA.
Drahmin has no dial-up combos in any of his fighting styles(only pop-up combos), is slower than other characters, and relies heavily on his special moves, all of which makes him a very predictable opponent and one of the most challenging character to use in Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance. That made him unpopular toward novice players. Additionally, his character animation includes a cloud of flies constantly swirling around his body, which can obscure and distract players.
The rotfly animation that surrounds Drahmin will transfer to opponents after certain fatalties are performed upon him, such as Cyrax's "Chest Blender" fatality.
While Drahmin is a playable character, his Oni companion Moloch, in the stand-alone game, is not.
Drahmin's Iron club is a reference to the Japanese slang of being invincible: An Oni with an iron club.
Drahmin possesses a special attack incredibly similar to the legendary Dragon Punch, of Street Fighter 2 fame.
Best thing about Drahmin is he has flies buzzing around him the whole time. He contorts himself and does all these janky moves. Meat is kind of similar.
Makes you wonder what he does for fun, in his spare time. Can't lead that good of a life. All his goals involve killing people. It's not like he can just hang out at the mall.
I watched it again, he does switch that sucker around a lot. And I noticed the flies this time around. The resolution on those vids posted at youtube aint the best.
His club comes and goes as you use your weapon. Most people pull out a sword of some kind as their weapon, since his is a club hand it appears kind of oddly.
A, MK:A) 
There's gotta be something for old club arm.
