Portrayal of Chi You in the Persona Series.
Chi You (シユウ, Shiyuu) is a Persona in the Persona series.
History
"A Chinese god of war. He is said to have invented many weapons. He and his followers rebelled against the Yellow Emperor, Huang Di, but were defeated."
Chi You (蚩尤 Chī Yóu) is a deity in Chinese mythology that descended from Shennong. This half-man, half-bull war deity helped and lead the Hmong and Li Tribes fight against the Yellow Emperor - the king who is said to be the ancestor of all Han Chinese. The Yellow Emperor lost many of his initial battles with Chi You but won the final battle with the invention of the South Pointing Chariot that allowed him to navigate through the thick fog summoned by Chi You's forces. Chi You was then beheaded by Yinlong (Winged Dragon), one of the Yellow Emperor's top generals.
He is worshipped in China as the god of war and weapons and along with Huang Di as one of the progenitors of the Chinese people. Shi Huang Di, the First Emperor of China worshipped Chi You and attributed him to his success in conquering his rival states. Liu Bang, the founder of the Han Dynasty, was also noted to have worshipped at Chi You's shrine before his decisive battle with Xiang Yu.
