Appearance
Kenny has shoulder-length brown hair and grey eyes. He is a very tall and slim man who appears to be well-built. He has short, coarse-looking dark hair that reaches to his neck and also has a thin beard along his jawline. He has the appearance of a middle-aged man with wrinkles around his eyes, which were small and piercing. He wears a simple white shirt with a black tie that was never fully done up, along with a brown bowler hat.

History
He lived with Levi for a while when Levi was young. While they were living together, Kenny taught a number of battle tactics, including the strategy of always flanking one's opponent and attacking them from behind.

At some point, Kenny became the leader of a group of soldiers trained in the use of Omni-directional mobility gear. Kenny would go on to build up an infamous reputation for himself, with many thinking of him to be only an urban legend.

Story
While Levi is investigating an attempted kidnapping of Historia Reiss and Eren Jaeger, Kenny flanks Levi and his companion Nifa in an attempt to kill them. Although he is successful in killing Nifa, Levi anticipates Kenny's flanking maneuver and manages to survive his attack. As Kenny's subordinates kill another of Levi's companions, Kenny jovially greets Levi as he reloads his guns and prepares to fire again.
