Without much to go on due to lack of access to any Vocaloid software, Panzer Len Kagamine is to Len Kagamine as Black Rock Shooter is to Miku Hatsune, both being Vocaloid-based characters instead of actual Vocaloids. You'll see why Panzer Len is different from the Len we all know enough to end up a seperate character altogether.

Backstory - Resistance Against Evil: Fanatical Soldier
Panzer Len Kagamine can be seen storming out of a room, leaving behind his twin sister Panzer Rin along with other soldiers and officers who had vowed to continue their resistance to the Accursed Fuhrer after the failed July 20th attempt. Grasping both MG 151/20s in hand, he walks down the stairs and out of the building to join a group of disillusioned soldiers whom fire upon an approaching Secret Service group composed of a single Panzer IV tank escorted by multiple foot soldiers and Panzer Girls.
One by one, Panzer Len's comrades fall to the attack of the SS group sent to crush their resistance. The Panzer Shota curses the Accursed Fuhrer's name every time he kills a SS soldier or Panzer Girl, usually by blowing their entrails out or pulping their heads. Eventually he runs out of ammo for his modified dual MG 151/20s, leaving only him, the SS Tank, and a single SS Panzer Girl alive.
Without warning, Panzer Rin, apparently having overcome what Panzer Len berated her for earlier on, rushes outside from the right side of the building and fires a single Panzerfaust at the tank, appearing to have destroyed it. Panzer Len is awed and even proud to see his sister finally put aside her fears, only for Panzer Rin to lose her head when the SS Tank's mounted Machine Gun tears through her neck with a stream of lead. The Panzer Shota then utters the following phrase:
"Ironic how the Allied nations could not figure out how much of a monster the Accursed Fuhrer was before the War and yet they are the only hope for my people. This situation...disgusts me... *Raises voice* Just like all of you loyalists to the Accursed Fuhrer!!!"
At that moment, Panzer Len Kagamine drew a P38 Walthers and began to fire upon the disabled tank in utter defiance when the remaining SS Panzer Girl reluctantly took her 75mm Portable Cannon and intentionally fired her weapon a bit off to the right. The Panzer Shota remained defiant until the end as the cannon shell pierced through his right breast, blowing his right arm off and spilling his entrails out the right side of his body, his left hand refusing to let go of the handgun even after he died.
After Panzer Len's death, the SS Panzer Girl that fired that "disemboweling shot", for lack of a better term, began to tremble and sob out of guilt. Fearing betrayal, the SS Tank began to turn and face her, only for that Panzer Girl to behead herself when she pointed her 75mm Cannon into the bottom of her jaw right next to the neck and fired the shot that blew her head apart. A group of Sherman Girls led by Sherman Len and Rin pour concentrated fire on the SS Tank, killing the commander and crew inside. When they go closer to the wreckage, Sherman Rin spots the headless body next to it and wonders if she committed suicide--the story ends when Sherman Len spots the body of his Panzer counterpart, eyes staring blank and left hand still gripping the handgun. Shocked, he wonders if the revolts against the Accursed Fuhrer by members of his own military was something the world missed.
This chapter ends with a message saying the Accursed Fuhrer and his wife had committed suicide six hours after.
Aftermath
In what appears to be timeless space, Panzer Len Kagamine opened his eyes to find the ghost of the Accursed Fuhrer laughing at him. Immediately he draws his inexplicably reloaded dual MG 151/20s and fires on the ghost, only for a second, third, fourth, and fifth one to appear. Upon reducing the fifth one to a bloody mess, he hears a voice and turns around. The voice was that of none other than the Servant of Evil, who has stitches around his neck to keep his head attached to his body.
Servant of Evil Len questions Panzer Len as to what he was going to do now that he is dead. Panzer Len rebukes the Servant believing that his medieval-age look-a-like is calling him insane. Unfazed by this, the Servant then tells him how he felt of his sister. Panzer Len feels conflicted by this as he loved Panzer Rin for how much she cared for him, yet hated her at the same time for being such a cowardly soldier with a weak will. The Panzer Shota then confesses that he feels responsible for Panzer Rin's death from his constant pushing of her to put aside her fears and fight the Fuhrer and his loyalists to the bitter end.
Suddenly Panzer Len is hugged from behind by the Daughter of Evil, who, like the Servant, also has stitches around her neck to keep her head attached to her body. The Daughter tells Panzer Len that his sister, Panzer Rin, loved him so much that she would gladly sacrifice her life for his as he did for her. She then says that she knew her brother, the Servant, loved her in the same way even though she, the Daughter, was eventually found by the angry mob and beheaded herself. The Servant follows up by stepping aside, revealing a smiling Panzer Rin behind him.
Panzer Rin walks over to hug her brother as the Daughter releases him from her embracing hug and when they release from each other, they find themselves alive in the present day, amongst the company of the other Vocaloids...including their once "friendly rivals" Sherman Len and Sherman Rin. He admits that he still feels haunted over what is now his past life and believes that he is still fighting the Accursed Fuhrer, but then Panzer Rin, the Sherman Kagamine Twins, and the rest of the Vocaloid crew assure him that they're more than willing to help him overcome his past.
Notes
- Panzer Len Kagamine, is, for all practical purposes, a "tragic Vocaloid character". Once an ace Mecha Anthro soldier filled with relentless zeal for the redemption of his nation and the death of the Accursed Fuhrer, the Panzer Shota had allowed his fanaticism to grow out of control and pays for that after he is revived as a Vocaloid-based character. When angered, he becomes paranoid and starts to hallucinate that he is "still fighting the Accursed Fuhrer" and starts to attack said illusions. Though this usually results in some criminal from a common street thug to organized crime members and even terrroists to get gorily killed by the Panzer Shota, this tends to frighten the rest of the crew into thinking that Panzer Len Kagamine really is insane.
- There is actually a second reason as to why Panzer Len and Rin even share the same names as Len and Rin Kagamine outside of a lack of original ideas--this is a play on the "cloning" of various Vocaloid characters into the respectively associated fanmade characters based on them and as such their sharing the same names as the originals is enough to make one believe there really is more than one Len and Rin Kagamine after all.
- On a lighter note, neither Panzer Len nor anyone around him realizes that he is wearing a female officer's dress uniform jacket. This is a play on the running gag that is Len Kagamine crossdressing and ending up a magnet to females around him. Yeah, nice briefs by the way. @.@
- Two liberties were taken with the Servant and Daughter of Evil. One establishes them as quasai-seperate characters from the Rin and Len we all know as they are depicted as seperate beings yet we can consider that they could be Len and Rin's "past lives" from how that series ends (with Servant Len being reborn as the Len we know). The other liberty extends the Servant/Daughter of Evil story by saying that after Servant Len was beheaded, Daughter Rin was eventually caught by an angry mob and beheaded like her twin brother--something never even hinted at in the Servant/Daughter of Evil series.
- The concept to mold Panzer Len Kagamine as such a blood-tainted character stems from the Panzer Len Kagamine player model from Unreal Tournament 2004 created by the ever-awesome xenoaisam. He eventually became my character of choice in that game and with the kill-happy lulz that followed, it eventually led to the concept you see now.
