Description in the Javanese wayang retellings: He served as senapati in Dwarawati. When his mother [Wresini] was seven months pregnant, she wanted to ride a tiger. Setyajid's enemy, [Singamulangjaya] took advantage of this longing by transforming himself into a tiger. After [Wresini] climbed onto his back, he ran off. Setyaki was thus born on the back of a tiger. [Singamulangjaya] tried to attack the baby, but the baby became stronger each time [Singamulangjaya] bit him. Eventually, Setyaki defeated him, taking the name Singamulangjaya for himself. His son with Endang [Trirasa], named [Arya_sanga-sanga] would eventually become king of Lesanpura and serve as senopati of Yawastina during the reign of [Parikesit]. He was the charioteer of Kresna, when he attempted to negotiate a diplomatic solution to Korawa/Pandawa conflict before the Baratayuda war. In the Panjangmas story, he loses his amulet, the Gada_Wesikuning (called Lukitasari in the Yogyakarta tradition). This amulet, a mace, becomes a sage named Panjangmas. Setyaki's sworn enemies were [Burisrawa] and Kartamarma. He succeeded in killing them both: [Burisrawa] with the help of Arjuna during the Baratayuda war, and Kartamarma after the war was over.
Notes on the Indian retellings: Known as Satyaki, he is a Yadava chieftain who helped the Pandavas in the Kurukshetra war.
