Shi Huangdi

Shi Huangdi is the main antagonist in Dynasty Warriors Strikeforce 2. 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.

Role in Game
Shi Huangdi, a tyrannical ruler with mystical powers, has been revived after the devastation caused by Lu Bu's revolt and death from the first title. With the power to resurrect old heroes and gods at his command, he disrupts the new found peace and desires to create an "undying, eternal empire" for himself. In order to fulfill his ambitions, he also resurrects Xiang Yu. The heroes of the Three Kingdoms band together to stop him.
