Savage Pan was born on August 18, 1965. He used to be a Canadian Fisherman before he became a shaman one day whilst fighting for his life during a fishing trip, an old man appeared suddenly, the old man was the ghost of Captain Roll. It turned out the boat used to belong to him and he provided Savage Pan with the coordinates to follow, from that day on he became a Shaman. after Captain Roll explained how he died upon one of his other ships that have sunk many years ago containing family treasure, Savage Pan decided to recover it but he couldn't do it alone and didn't have the money to get help. there he decided to enter the Shaman fight in order to find his lost family members and re-float the ship.

Not much is know about his time in the first rounds but he did win two matches and advanced to the second rounds. He got on the patch plane and was dumped somewhere in America.

Shaman Fight in Tokyo
Not much is known about his performance during the preliminary round, but Savage Pan did win two matches and advanced to the main competition. He and the other qualifying competitors attended the opening ceremony at Mimata Hall.

Traveling Through America
A month later, Savage Pan and the other competitors gathered at Yokocha Base and were flown to America in the Patch Jumbo. The shamans were tasked with locating and reaching the Patch Village within three months. While still tens of thousands of feet in the air, the jumbo jet was revealed to be an Over Soul shortly before it was dematerialized, dropping all of its passengers.

Savage Pan teamed up with Mr. Little Lake and Green Garam and reached Yonta Fe, where they tried to get Lilirara to tell them where the Patch Village was. She said that her tricks would not work on them because their weak minds were too small and degenerate. When they tried to force her, Usui Horokeu struck all three of them, knocking them unconscious. The next day, the three men returned to Lilirara's home in hopes of getting revenge but saw Asakura Hao killing Lilirara. Hao then incinerated them because their furyoku levels were too low to be of use to him.

Epilogue
After Hao became Shaman King, Savage Pan, Mr. Little Lake, and Green Garam boarded the train of souls in the Great Spirit and traveled to the highest level in support of the Five Elemental Warriors. When Team "Magical Princesses" pleaded for Hao to resurrect them in younger bodies, Savage Pan and others yelled at the women for upsetting Hao.

Anime/Manga Difference
In the 2001 anime, Pan, Little Lake, and Garam were attacked by Lyserg Diethel in his desperate search for strong partners. The three later team up to get their revenge on Lyserg and are given Morphine's cage by Hao's followers; however, Asakura Yoh and his friends come to Lyserg's aid and defeat the three men. The three are later killed by Asakura Hao for their failures.

In the 2021 anime, his role closely follows the events of the manga; however, he, Garam, and Little Lake were not killed off by Hao's Spirit of Fire, nor were they seen on the train in the Great Spirit.
