Shawlong Koufang

Shawlong Koufang has a long face and black hair, which is braided and usually hanging over his shoulder. What remains of his mask is on the top of his head, but a portion drops down covering part of his face. Shawlong is an intellectual, or at least an analyst, able to confidently state the nature of his opponent's powers. He is killed by Tōshirō Hitsugaya.

Shawlong was a member, and possibly the leader, of a group formed by himself, Edrad Liones, Yylfordt Granz, Di Roy, and Nakeem. They wanted to become vasto lordes by eating other hollows and thereby decided to join forces with the adjuchas-class menos, Grimmjow Jeagerjaques, whom Shawlong proposed be their "king". However, upon learning that they could evolve no further, Shawlong asked him to eat a part of each of them, as this would both halt their evolution and prevent them from returning to being a lesser Hollow, something that apparently all Adjuchas or Higher level Menos fear.

Shawlong's zanpakutō is named Tijereta (五鋏蟲（ティヘレタ）, Tihereta?, Spanish for "earwig," Japanese for "five-pincered insect"). It is released with the phrase "snip" (裁て, tate?). When released, Shawlong grows armor covering his arms and upper chest with his hands transforming into long claws, his mask extends down to cover the left side of his face and his queue becomes a tail with claws.
