Suzuki

In life Suzuki looked like an elderly man in a suit and tie. Once changed, he keeps a roughly human outline but gains a large mask and grey skin, and each hand tapers to just two elongated fingers.

He first reads as timid, fleeing in fear at the sight of another Hollow, yet that impression proves false. In truth he is courageous, repeatedly throwing himself into danger to shield those he comes to call friends.

Before the game he served as a junior high vice principal and died at seventy in the car crash his wife accidentally caused. Rather than passing on to Soul Society, his soul slipped through a gate in the Dangai, where Shemihaza's breath warped him into a Hollow that nonetheless held onto its awareness while losing its past. Found in Hueco Mundo by Ichigo Kurosaki and others, he at first begs for death, but Rukia Kuchiki brings him along, and Yamamoto later sends him to infiltrate the Hollows serving Shemihaza and Bansui Amatsuki. He aids the group as spy and shield, taking a grievous wound to guard Ichigo and Byakuya before shattering Shemihaza's equipment. Left for dead, he is finished off by Bansui once Shemihaza falls. The engraved pen cap he leaves behind, a gift from his wife, marks him as a soul purified rather than lost, and he afterward appears in her dreams to recount all he lived through.
