Panda King

Panda King is a struggling fireworks artist who had a poor background. His passion for pyro-technics allowed him to create the art of Flame Fu. Ever since then, he went from creating beautiful illuminations in the sky to wrecking mountains and villages. In Sly 1, he stole the Otto Van Cooper pages from the Thievius Raccoonus and had a part in killing Sly's dad. He was first defeated in Fire in the Sky.

Later on in the series (Sly 3), he became a valued ally of the Cooper gang and was the demolitions expert for the Cooper Vault job. In Sly 3, he mentioned to the gang that he had a daughter named Jing King, who was abducted by General Tsao, a powerful general from the northern Mountains. She was forced to marry Tsao in his palace in China. The gang rescued his daughter from Tsao in A Cold Alliance, and it was then that Panda King joined the gang. In Dead Men Tell No Tales, he put his fireworks to use by going up against the giant squid named Crusher.

At the end of Sly 3, he has returned to China and lived two doors down from his beloved daughter, who is still unmarried.
