=== ''Before Kingdom Hearts II'' === | |||
Shan-Yu is the mysterious chieftain of the Huns and a ruthless warlord who is determined to invade and conquer China. At the same point, Shan Yu scales the Great Wall of China and leading his army in an invasion of China. | |||
=== ''Kingdom Hearts II'' === | === ''Kingdom Hearts II'' === | ||
Shan-Yu possesses an army of [[Heartless]] at his command and plots to overthrow [[The Emperor]]. | |||
Shan-Yu first appears at the beginning of the world with his falcon, Hayabusa. He had burned down a village and was standing in the ruins. He next is seen by [[Mushu]] walking into a cave outside the village [[Sora]], [[Mulan]], [[Donald Duck|Donald]], and [[Goofy]] were in. In order to prove herself to Captain [[Li Shang]] she entered the cave followed by the others. However, it was actually a trap. While the heroes are trapped in the cave battling Heartless, Shan-Yu attacks the village, burning it, and turning everyone into Heartless except for Captain Li Shang, [[Yao]], [[Ling]], and [[Chien Po]], who managed to survive. Once the party sees the destruction they charge to the summit of the mountain to encounter the Hun. Although he charged with a mass army of Heartless, Sora and company destroy most of them and Mulan's quick thinking sends Shan-Yu and the rest of the Heartless over the edge of a ridge in an avalanche. | |||
After surviving the avalanche, Shan-Yu attacks the Imperial Palace and distracts Sora with a group of Captain Shang's soldiers, who were actually Heartless. But he is defeated by Sora, Donald, Goofy, and Mulan in a climatic battle. After his defeat, Sora receives the [[Hidden Dragon]] [[Keyblade]]. | |||

In the manga adaptation of ''Kingdom Hearts II'', Shan-Yu was revealed to be working for [[Organization XIII]] and tasked with killing the Emperor and conquering the Land of the Dragons. However, when he was defeated by Sora and company, he ended up sniped by [[Xigbar]] as punishment for his failure.}} | |||
==Appearance== | |||
Shan-Yu is a large, muscular Hun with greyish skin, thick, black eyebrows, and a black {{w|Fu Manchu moustache|Fu Manchu mustache}}. His eyes peculiar colors; the irises are an eerie orange color and his sclera are black. The top of his head is bald, but the hair on the back of his head is quite long and black. He often wears a black hood with grey fur lining and what seem to be two raccoon tails dangling in the front. He wears grey pants and black, knee-high boots with grey soles and a vertical grey stripe up the front. Shan-Yu also wears a coat that is pale yellow on the left side and the front and black on the right side. It has tattered, brown lining and is kept closed by a brown belt. He wears a single black glove on his left hand, presumably for the same reasons {{w|Falconry training and technique|falconers}} use them. | |||

He is feared by almost all of China, and makes a point to ensure that everyone knows it. He is also known for his rather dark sense of humor. | |||

Shan-Yu is the primary antagonist of ''Mulan'', with plans to invade China with his army of Huns. While he has very little screen time until the second half of the movie, he is still the catalyst for almost all the events. During his army, he and his army slay General Li ([[Li Shang]]'s father) and his men, devastating the nearby village. He attacks Mulan's party on the mountain but is defeated when Mulan causes an avalanche. In retaliation, he wounds Mulan with his sword before being buried underneath the snow, which leads to her exposure as a woman. Surviving the avalanche, he and his remaining men attack the Imperial Palace and take the Emperor hostage, but he is foiled once again by Mulan, Mushu, Shang, Yao, Ling and Chien-Po. Enraged, Shan-Yu corners Mulan on the roof of the palace, where they briefly fight until Mulan traps him long enough for Mushu to launch a firework directly at Shan-Yu, which rockets him straight into the firework tower, where he is killed in an ensuing explosion | Shan-Yu is the primary antagonist of ''Mulan'', with plans to invade China with his army of Huns. While he has very little screen time until the second half of the movie, he is still the catalyst for almost all the events. While heading to the Imperial city, his falcon brings him a doll from a village. On the doll are pine dust from the high mountains, white horsehair from Imperial stallions, and the smell of sulfur from cannons, clues that the Imperial army is waiting for them at a mountain pass. Instead of avoiding the army, he and his men head in that direction, since the quickest way to the Emperor is through the pass. Upon arrival, he and his troops not only crush General Li's army at the mountain pass but also, in an act of fierce barbarity, raze the surrounding village to the ground, leaving no survivors.

==Trivia== | |||
*"Hayabusa" is the Japanese word for "Peregrine Falcon". | |||
* Directly before fighting him, he is seen to glow with an eerie purple light similar to the light that glows around [[Scar]] when the latter started becoming a Heartless. | |||
* In the manga, his battle with [[Sora]] is very similar to his battle with Mulan in the film. The main difference is that Sora, who's furious with Shan-Yu for not being able to talk to [[Riku]], knocks him off the palace roof, and Shan-Yu is then shot in the head by [[Xigbar]]. | |||
