T'Challa is heir to the centuries-old ruling dynasty of the African kingdom Wakanda and ritual leader of its Panther Clan. During the early days of the Mutant-Human War, Wakanda did its best to remain neutral; however, due to Wakanda's congenial relations with the United States, some mutants took it upon themselves to make a statement by attacking the Wakandan Royal Family. During one such attempt, T'Challa was saved by a mutant girl named Ororo. The two fell in love and T'Challa asked for her hand in marriage, but she declined.

In time, the Mutant-Human War ended and Magneto was victorious. T'Challa, now king of Wakanda, was taught by his father to think two steps ahead of enemies and three steps ahead of friends. Seeing the world's mutant population as a potential threat to Wakanda, T'Challa invited Magnus to his country. They established a treaty, but it is one neither man truly believes in. T'Challa is currently drumming up support for a possible coup attempt with other world leaders against Magneto. He knows it is not a matter of if, but rather when Magneto attacks him and his beloved country, Wakanda.
Trivia:
T'Challa is also the primary funder of the Mutants Sans Frontières; an organization that is dedicated to the protection of mutant rights, which also funds the X-Men's activities.
Black Panther was once referred to as the "Black Leopard" for a short time in 1972. Both in-universe and out-of-universe, it was changed to distance themselves from the group of the same name, though in-universe, T'Challa explains that he neither condemns nor condones their actions and that, technically, a leopard is a panther.
The character predates the party of the same name, but not the Black Panther logo, which was used by the party's predecessor, and by segregated World War II Black Panthers Tank Battalion. Stan Lee had denied that the character was named after these movements, which began being used after the character's creation, and cited it simply as "a strange coincidence".
Black Panther was ranked 51st on IGN's Top 100 Comic Book Heroes in 2011.
T'Challa was two times Time magazine's "Person of the Year" and six-times People magazine's "Sexiest Man Alive."
Black Panther is a fan of A Song of Ice and Fire. He even threatened Deadpool's life when Wade speculated the ending of the series during a battle with him out of fear Deadpool might have actually spoiled it.
