Biography[]
An Interpol detective who continues to track Shadaloo in order to learn the truth about her father's whereabouts. She has closed many an investigation with her dangerous kicks. While she stands firm against the forces of evil, she is also a cheerful and stunningly attractive woman. She is currently investigating the movements of both Shadaloo and the Mishima Zaibatsu as they begin their search for Pandora.
Appearance[]
Chun-Li wears the blue qipao, a Chinese dress imported over from Manchuria, yet popular among girls during the early 20th century. Her outfit is modified to allow a far wider range of movement than a normal qipao. She also wears white combat boots and blue leotard with dark brown sheer pantyhose with her qipao. Her qipao is blue with golden accents. She was originally supposed to wear a peach-colored qipao, as seen in her in-game profile and ending in the original Street Fighter II. She is known for her very muscular thighs. She is 5 feet 6 1/2 inches according to her Street Fighter Alpha 3 biography. Her hairstyle is called "ox horns", a typical style in which Chinese children dress their hair; depictions of girls in Chinese paintings frequently show girls in ox horns.
Personality[]
Chun-Li is generally a cheerful (occasionally princess-like) and serious woman. She is often happy and excited when she wins a fight, but hates being defeated. As part of her job as a cop, she takes it very serious, and will do her best to complete a mission. When it comes to fighting, Chun-Li tends to get quite competitive with her opponents, but after fighting most of them, she may become allies or even befriend them. She also wants to continue to grow stronger, due to past experiences fighting her most powerful foe M. Bison.

- —Winning quote
Chun-Li is the original fast character in the Street Fighter series, utilizing multiple rapid attacks rather than the slow damaging strikes of larger characters like Zangief. Her agile and swift movements are a favorite amongst game-players. It is interesting to note that in the early days of arcade fighting games, many other female characters played in a similarly speedy style, following the example set by Chun-Li. In previous games (Street Fighter 2 mainly) she was basically a charge character along with Guile and E.Honda but her style was changed in later games to give her a more technical feel as well as her trademark "speed" granted to the player.
