Panji and the other characters in the Panji cycle appear with various names in different versions of the tales. Other names for Panji include Raden Panji, Raden Inu, Inu (of) Koripan, Ino (or Hino) Kartapati, Cekel Wanengpati, and Kuda Wanengpati.[2]

Panji is the prince of Kuripan (Koripan). He is usually depicted in an unadorned helmetlike rounded cap.[3] The mask for Panji has a smooth white or green face; narrow, elongated eyes; a straight and pointed nose; and delicate, half-open lips.[4]

Panji is engaged to be married to Candra Kirana (also Sekar Taji), the princess of Daha (Kediri), when she mysteriously disappears on the eve of the wedding. Later in the story, she is sometimes called Kuda Narawangsa when she appears disguised as a man. Panji's principal adversary is Klono (Kelana Tunjung Seta), a ferocious king who desires Candra Kirana and tries to destroy Daha to get her. Other common characters are Gunung Sari (Candra Kirana's brother), Ragil Kuning or Dewi Onengan (Panji's sister married to Gunung Sari), Wirun, Kartala and Andaga (relatives and companions of Panji).[2]

Change to Proper Title

I've added links to Thai and Indonesian pages. I think we should change the title to a more suitable one, maybe "Panji Cycle", as the article offers so much more than the story of the prince himself. Matahari Pagi (talk) 05:04, 8 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

2020

I've renamed the article to Panji tales, since this is the term used in the UNESCO inscription, etc. --Paul_012 (talk) 16:31, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
