Py Wu-shen was the victim of a plane shift spell cast upon him by an evil wu-jen he was fighting. The wu-jen intended to trap him in Limbo and then escape, but Py Wu-shen was able to slay him before he could return to the Material Plane. Trapped in Limbo, and with no clue how to escape, he wandered into a band of slaadi who captured him and traded him to Ssendam's Implanter for some slaadi favours. Py Wu-shen had eggs implanted in him and was close to the end before the Heroes of the Gem slew Ssendam and freed him.
Py Wu-shen is endebted to the Heroes for rescuing him, and he has pledged to serve Korvar for an unstated amount of time as repayment of his life debt.
Py Wu-shen is honourable, but he is also a free spirit and tends to act first and think about the consequences later, especially when he faces evil or injustice. This impetuousity serves to inspire his various charge-related maneuvers, but can also land him in tight spots, such as when he slew his only means to return from Limbo.
