He has brown eyes which are bloodshot just around the time he wakes up in the morning, and its usually very unpleasant to look at them directly at that time. The only good characteristic about his appearance is that he has glimmering white teeth, due to constant brushing and flossing at random times during the day He is somewhat tall and well built for his size, mainly from training most of the day. He wears a blood red band around his forehead along with a set of worn out black combat gloves.

History: Pangolin was an average high school student. He was about as cocky as they came, and very short tempered (He was in numerous brawls because of this). His grades were about as low as they could get from, constantly skipping school or for sleeping in class, But he was well known throughout his school for being the star of the track and field club. he anchored every relay the team was in and always managed to bring then from the brink of losing back into first. He Had only one other sibling, An older brother who owned a large corporation overseas. On his 18th birthday as he was walking home from school, he noticed a young girl, only about 4 years old, trying to cross the street after getting away from her mother for a second. He turns and notices a car speeding towards the young girl and he leaps into action. He barely manages to push the young girl out of the way, but the impact of the car left him in a comatose state for nearly 3 months. His parents were given the news that he would never wake up from the coma, He was taken off of life support and died shortly after.
He woke up in the Rukongai district of Soul Society, He wandered endlessly but could find no help from any of the people there. Eventually he began to resort to violence to get what he wanted.

It took Pangolin several tries to pass the entrance exam into the Shinigami academy. It was quickly discovered that his ability to use Kido was awful, But he excelled in Swordplay and the ability to use Shunpo. He preferred not making friends at the academy, and made no attempts to be social. After graduating he was accepted into squad 11, but was not given a seat. During his time in squad 11 he shrugged most of his responsibilities and spent most of his days training and sleeping.
A year after he entered squad 11, he challenged the captain for his title, which ended up with him almost losing his life. The scar across his chest is a painful reminder of that day. The captain allowed his to remain in squad 11, mainly because he enjoyed the warm up and because no other squad would accept Pangolin. From that day forward he dedicated every second of his time to training.

He was the person who persuaded Pangolin to challenge his captain.
Inner World: His Innerworld is a vast open sea blue sky that is filled with nothing but enormous white clouds with only a gentle breeze blowing them along in infinite directions. Occasionally a black cloud may be spotted but it is usually small, they only appear when Pangolin is troubled by something, and the greater his distress the more black clouds there are and the bigger they are too. Kette seems to show a great disdain towards the black clouds and usually becomes enraged when he sense one close by.
