Yao, Chien-Po, and Ling

Ling is one of three aspiring warriors who joined the Imperial Army, the other two being Chien Po and Yao.

He and Yao shared a dislike for Sora, Mulan, Donald, and Goofy, but he eventually changed his mind after they saved the country from Shan-Yu and his army of Heartless.

Kingdom Hearts II
Mulan (1998)

One of the men drafted to help defend China from the Hun invasion.

Ling loves to talk and tell jokes.

Story
Ling has a very minor role in Kingdom Hearts II. His first appearance is at the Encampment where he and Yao argue with Sora and Donald. Ling appears at the Summit along with Yao and Chien Po in hopes of killing Shan-Yu. After Shan-Yu attacks the Palace, Ling helped protect the Emperor. After the defeat of Shan-Yu, Ling can be found at the Village.

During the credits, Ling is shown spying on Mulan and Li Shang along with Yao and Chien Po, but the three are discovered when they fall down, alerting the Captain and, most likely, earning them punishment.

Appearance
Ling is of average height and is quite thin. He has a somewhat pointed face, a large nose, black eyes, and rather thick, black eyebrows. He dresses in Chinese armor during the course of the game. Ling's armor is colored predominantly in shades of grey and yellow and his helmet sports a red tassel at the top. He carries a jian with a gold guard and pommel and a black hand grip as a weapon.

Personality
Ling is the friendly, enthusiastic friend of Yao and Chien Po who's passion is telling jokes. While seeking acknowledgement from his jokes he gains an obnoxious exterior. Like Yao, Ling can be harsh to people he doesn't know/like, but after spending time with the person his opinion of them increases.

Trivia

 * Ling's name means "zero" in Mandarin Chinese, while Yao's name coincidentally means "one".
