Shi Huangdi

Shi Huangdi (始皇帝) is the main antagonist in Shin Sangoku Musou Multi Raid 2. He mainly appears as an elderly gentleman, but he can transform into a gigantic beast or into a younger version of himself for his Warriors appearance.

He is historically credited with founding the unified Empire of China around 221 BCE, beginning construction of the Great Wall along with many other great projects at the expense of countless lives. As emperor, he was renown for his ruthlessness and tyrannical efforts to shape the country according to his vision and extravagant lifestyle. He lived to be only 50 years old, ironically due to consumption of mercury in an effort to prolong his life.

The height for his normal human form in his Dynasty Warriors appearance is 178 cm (5'10").

Role in Game

Gameplay
Shi Huangdi is not playable in the vanilla game, but he is through a Game Shark using mod made by a hacker called Osmund Neuron with other non-playable monsters. The mod adds new moves to the characters like Square, Triangle or Square (x2) Triangle combos (special attacks) like in the Warriors Orochi series engine.

When playable, Shi Huangdi has new moves added from the developer of the mod.

His monstrous form is playable in the "Arena Mode" a modification of the final quest where you actually fought him. The player can choose an enemy and fight using one of the monsters.

As playable Shi Huangdi uses the same attacks he does as an CPU opponent. He cannot teleport as it seems this is only a CPU action. However, the new added moves makes him the strongest usable character. He uses a powerful rapid strikes like multiple dark pillars summon, rapid axe attacks, and powerful magic strikes.
