The Deku King is the rash, over-reactive, and overprotective monarch of the Southern Swamp in Termina.[1][2] When his daughter - the Deku Princess - goes missing, the Deku King captures a monkey who had associated with his daughter and imprisons and tortures him.[3] After Link rescues the Deku Princess from Woodfall Temple, the King realizes his mistake and releases the prisoner monkey.[4] In the manga, instead of accusing the monkey, he rounded up random creatures such as Wolfos and Snappers, blaming them for the missing princess.

He has a giant crown of Deku Leaves and a large, dried-up Deku Nut for a scepter.
