Biography
Appearance
Shun is a short child with pale skin and choppy brown hair. Even though his appearance resembles a young Ryu, Shun's brown eyes have a distant look to them.
When he channels into the Satsui no Hado by tapping into it, his appearance becomes sinister but in a trance with red eyes, and his body is covered in a dark aura.
Personality
Shun appears to be a quiet and distant child from appearance, but deep down he's energetic and excited when it comes to street fighting but is also shown to be sadistic and lacks self-control when Shun gets too intense and overzealous during any fight. His inner strength and energy comes from the experiments performed on him by Sadler.
History
Shun was a young boy who claimed to be looking for his elder brother: Ryu. Shun was taken care of by his mother in Brazil until she fell ill. Shun claimed that her last words were for him to search for his elder brother, whom he carried a photo of. He eventually located Ryu in Japan and was shown eager to participate in the Second World Fighting Tournament after his brother won the first tournament where Ryu defeated Birdie, Adon, and the host Sagat. Shun surprised Ryu, however, by proving to be a violent and a ruthless fighter who possesses the Satsui no Hado when fighting.
During the tournament, Shun was outmatched and seemingly paralyzed after getting bear hugged by Zangief. Ryu tried to save his brother but the crew of Sadler captured Shun alive before he could. Ryu's guilt and sadness grew into a strong anger. Days later with the help of two Interpol agents, Ryu decided to enter Sadler's next attempt at a Second World Fighting Tournament via cargo plane with a group of 9 other fellow street fighters both newcomers and veterans; Adon, Birdie, Guy, Dan, Rolento, Sodom, Dhalsim, Chun-Li, and his close friend Ken.
Shun was revealed to have been inserted into a powerful cybernetic organism named Rosanov, which he used to clash with Ryu and the other street fighters. He was eventually purged from it following a battle with Ryu. Later, once the battle with Sadler had ended. Ryu approached the dying Shun. Shun questioned why Ryu would come for him, not only due to his knowledge that it had been a trap, but also due to the fact Ryu never believed they had been brothers. Ryu assured him that they were brothers, a statement which seemed to please Shun. Before he died, he admitted that he had only done what he did to become strong and to get money to help his mother.
