Li Shuwen

Li Shuwen (1864–1934) was a master practitioner of the Chinese martial art of Bajiquan. He was known as "God Spear Li" (神槍李). His prowess was said to be such that he boasted that he did not have to strike the same opponent twice. He was a martial arts adviser of Fu Zhensong, notably once fighting him to a draw. Li's students eventually became personal bodyguards for Mao Zedong, Chiang Kai-shek, and Puyi. He also shows up in other Fate works, such as Fate/Type Redline, Fate/Samurai Remnant, and Fate/Grand Order. The franchise features several versions; he is depicted as a young or older man depending on the story, and due to Servants being subject to character classes, he is either a Lancer or Assassin.

The Japanese manga Kenji depicted Li Shuwen according to numerous accounts from various sources, notably from Li Shuwen's last student Liu Yunqiao.
