Togabito

The are a species of spiritual beings that are imprisoned in Hell for crimes that they committed when they were alive.

Overview
The soul of a dead Human normally passes on to the Soul Society with the assistance of a Shinigami. However, Humans that lived lives full of sin - including those that become Hollows after dying - are incapable of entering the Soul Society. Instead, they are sent into the depths of Hell, where they are bound by indestructible chains and condemned for the rest of eternity. Under ordinary circumstances, these Togabito are incapable of leaving their prison, for they are constantly watched over by Kushanāda, the guardian of Hell. However, some Togabito are capable of leaving Hell and entering the Human World, though they apparently need to conceal their faces so the Kushanada don't drag them back. Some Togabito possess immense amounts of power, which can surpass that of even an Espada.

Appearance
Incarcerated in Hell, Togabito commonly have white garb with thin black stripes, though certain Togabito have been shown to have their own attire.

While out of Hell, most Togabito have variations of one standard set of clothing, which is a black cloak with white rectangular buttons, draped across their entire bodies, concealing their physical makeup. Also, the Togabito share the same mask, which is light bulb-shaped and split off diagonally with the color of black and white. The purpose of the mask and cloaks are to conceal the Togabito from the watchful eyes of the Kushanada; however, at the same time, the cloaks hinder their power to some extent. Should too much of this garb be removed, the Kushanada will immediately be alerted to the Togabito's escape and will immediately chain up the Togabito and drag it back through the gates of Hell, where the Kushanada will promptly punish it and then lock it in the lowest levels of Hell. This is why Shuren wears bandages underneath his mask, in case somebody breaks off his mask. For unknown reasons, Kokuto has been shown to exit Hell freely without this attire. It should be noted, however, that he kept parts of his face hidden with his thick black bandage.
