Mulan aka Fa Mulan , or Hua Mulan (2020) is the titular protagonist of Disney's Mulan . She is the strong-willed and tenacious daughter of a war veteran, who strives to uphold her family's honor. When her father is called back into battle to defend China from Shan Yu, Mulan opts to protect him by taking his place under the disguise of a male soldier named Ping .
Mulan is inspired by the legendary Hua Mulan. She is the eighth official Disney Princess , the only one not to be of royal lineage either by birth or marriage. She is the last Disney Princess to be developed during the Disney Renaissance and also the 20th century.
She is Mushu's best friend and Shang's girlfriend, and then later on, she became his wife at the end of the sequel Mulan 2 .
In a fanfic, she was Viper, Young Bagheera, and Robyn Starling's mother.
