In the [[Spooky]] chapter, [[Count Batula]] tells [[Conker the Squirrel|Conker]] about a war over 300 years back, the [[Milk Wars]]. In it, the panthers and the oldest family of squirrels, the [[Kulas of Conk]], waged war against the weasels and the Weasel King. The panthers and their king, the Panther King, rose to power, and the king cut the legs off the Weasel King and overtook [[Panther Kingdom|the kingdom]], which he rechristened the "Panther Kingdom". The panthers betrayed the Kulas of Conk, and banished them to the darkest regions of the kingdom.

This story is told in the Panther King's description for the ''Bad Fur Day'' manual, albeit somewhat more summarized. It states that the story is a myth: it may or may not be true.

History

Milk Wars

In the Spooky chapter, Count Batula told Conker about a war over 300 years back, the Milk Wars. In it, the panthers and the oldest family of squirrels, the Kulas of Conk, waged war against the weasels and the Weasel King. The panthers and their king, the Panther King, rose to power, and the king cut the legs off the Weasel King and overtook the kingdom, which he rechristened the "Panther Kingdom". The panthers betrayed the Kulas of Conk, and banished them to the darkest regions of the kingdom.

Some believed that Batula's story was false. The Weasel King was assumed to be Kriplespac, who actually lost his legs from a missile launched by an SHC member at the end of the mission, Beach Dead. This story was told in the Panther King's description for the Bad Fur Day manual, albeit somewhat more summarized. It stated that the story is a myth: it's unknown whether it's true or not.

Panther King's rule

The Panther King holds a glass of Milk.

The Panther King was first shown in the opening cutscene of Bad Fur Day and Live & Reloaded. In it, a Weasel Guard offered Milk to him. The Panther King said yes, and the Weasel Guard poured milk into his cup. The Panther King put it on his table, which is missing a leg. After the Panther King placed his glass on the table, it lost balance and tipped over. The glass of Milk fell off and shattered. The Panther King roared at the Weasel Guards in outrage.

In the opening cutscene of the chapter Windy, the Panther King called in Kriplespac to research a table leg replacement. He threatened to use the "duct tape" on Kriplespac if the table was unsuccessfully repaired. After much scientific research, Kriplespac concluded that a red squirrel would be an ideal table leg. The Weasel Guards then searched after a red squirrel, specifically Conker.

Conker meets the Panther King.

In the Heist chapter, Don Weaso ordered Conker and Berri into robbing the Feral Reserve Bank. After Conker collected hundreds of Cash bundles in the bank's vault, the Panther King revealed himself, on his throne. The heist was a trap. At first, Conker did not recognize the Panther King but quickly realized his identity. Conker had previously thought the Panther King was fictional, as he was featured in bedtime stories that Conker's mom read to Conker at a young age. Don Weaso showed up from behind the Panther King's throne and revealed he was also involved in the trap. The Panther King paid Weaso a bounty of Cash and then shot Berri to death, which the Panther King ordered him to shortly afterward.

The Panther King suddenly felt indigestion and called in Von Kriplespac (who also appeared from behind his throne) to fetch him Milk. He believed it would help with his indigestion, which gets worsened. He was then unable breathe, until a xenomorph suddenly bursted out of his heart, killing him. Kriplespac named the alien Heinrich, the actual final boss. Previously, the player would presume that the Panther King was the last boss.

After Conker pulled a lever, a window opened a portal into space. The Panther King's corpse was sucked out in space along with other objects in the room. Conker's allies inaugurated him as the Panther Kingdom's new king after he killed Heinrich.

Future War

The Panther King is frozen in carbonite.
The Panther King after being resurrected.

200 years later, in the Future War of Live & Reloaded, the Panther King was frozen in carbonite and sealed away in a tomb on the Three Towers map (possibly based on how Han Solo was trapped in carbonite in Star Wars V: The Empire Strikes Back). It is unknown how the Panther King ended up in this state.

The SHC and Tediz originally thought the Panther King's tomb was a mass-destruction weapon, of which they named "The Thing". Both battalions began another war over who would receive it. Tediz eventually discovered "The Thing" first and took it to their home world.

The final mission was set on their home world, named Doon. "The Thing" was revealed to be the Panther King in the mission's opening cinematic. The Tediz attempted to resurrect him so that he would destroy the SHC. This decision was unusual because the Tediz' leader, Von Kriplespac, hated the Panther King in Bad Fur Day, and was even the reason for his death. If Tediz won the war, they successfully revived the Panther King. Upon being brought back to life, the Panther King immediately demanded the Tediz to fetch him Milk. The Tediz cheered over his resurrection, and this marked the end of the Future War.
