Biography
S'Yan was a male of the Wakandan Royal Family who was noted for being the younger brother of T'Chaka. As young boys, their father served as king and as the Black Panther who protected Wakandan from Nazi Germany during World War II. At the time, Captain America Steve Rogers operated and was deployed into the Wakandan region by the United States Military where he befriended the Black Panther. As the Red Skull launched an attack, the young T'Chaka wanted to join his father in battle but his mother scolded him for not being like his younger brother S'Yan. An angry T'Chaka replied that S'Yan only read books and would never understand the burdens of leadership leading to a brief fight between the siblings until their mother broke it up. (Black Panther/Captain America: Flags of Our Fathers v1 #2)
After the death of King T'Chaka, S'Yan adopted the mantle of the Black Panther and participated in the Wakandan yearly ritual combat for claiming that mantle of leadership. He defeated numerous challengers for the throne that included his own son T'Shan. This was until a masked warrior entered the ring and battled S'Yan who was defeated in the fight. It was then revealed that the victor was his own nephew T'Challa who became the new Black Panther. (Black Panther v4 #2)
He came to sit on the inner council of advisors to King T'Challa regarding matters of state that included finding the murderers responsible for T'Chaka's death. During the discussion, S'Yan reminded his nephew that he needed to appoint an ambassador to the United Nations with T'Challa suggesting him. However, S'Yan refused on the account of his age with T'Challa then deciding to appoint his cousin T'Shan in his stead. (Black Panther v4 #3)
