Shere Khan

Shere Khan, Menacing Predator (126/204) was released as part of the second set of the Disney Lorcana trading card game, titled Rise of the Floodborn, which debuted in late 2023. The card was designed to support the game’s strategic expansion, specifically emphasizing the synergy between villain characters and the ink-manipulation mechanics introduced in the game's early sets. It captures the essence of the classic Jungle Book antagonist by integrating his predatory nature into the game's resource-management system.

The card features artwork by illustrator M.J. Silva, who focused on rendering the character with a sense of looming authority and physical weight. As a rare card within the set, it was received favorably by players who specialize in controlling the pace of the game, particularly those building decks centered on the Emerald ink color. The design aesthetic aligns with the wider stylistic direction of the set, which reimagines iconic Disney characters as 'floodborn' versions—transformed by the mysterious flood of ink that defines the game's narrative world.
