| Character Bios GOKU Goku is the hero of Dragonball Z, a good-natured and trusting soul. He is also the most powerful warrior on Earth and the first Super Saiyan in over 1,000 years. Having honed his skills and strengthened his spirit to a level never achieved by any being on Earth, Goku is able to fly, shoot energy beams from his hands, move at incredible speeds and, in a pinch, power up to a fighting level so high it creates an energy aura around his body. Goku hasn't learned these skills just for fun: his life is forced down this path as he battles the evil Saiyans in the final battle to save Earth. When the Saiyans arrive it is a total shock in more ways than one. Not only does Goku meet his deadliest foe ever, but he learns the mysterious secret of his own past: he is a Saiyan formerly named Kakkarott who was sent to destroy Earth. Goku's destiny is altered, however, when he is discovered in the wilds as an infant and raised by a peaceful wise man. A near-fatal head injury scrambles Goku's programming. Instead of growing up to become a destructive super-warrior, he becomes innocent and pure of heart, fighting only for good. Goku is very protective of his family and friends and is always there to help them. If he has a weakness, it is his trusting nature. Goku is always looking for the good in people and can often find it where others do not. This costs him dearly when be believes that the Saiyan named Raditz has turned away from evil. Goku later pays the ultimate sacrifice to rid the Earth of Raditz. Fortunately for our hero and for Earth, it's not the end of Goku. He is taken to the Upper World to train under King Kai in preparation for the coming of two even stronger Saiyans. The Dragonballs will summon him when the Saiyans approach Earth. Goku has many powerful fighting techniques including the powerful Kamehameha wave and the Kaio-Ken, which he learns from King Kai. His most powerful weapon is an immensely powerful energy ball. This ball can only be used once and must be guided carefully, for it can destroy the planet if used inappropriately. Goku's power level changes rapidly, rising from a 300 level in the early episodes to 5,000 after training with King Kai, to 8,000 when he is angry and to 21,000 when doing the famous Triple Kaio-Ken. And all of this is before his Super Saiyan stage. To further aid him, Goku still has the famous Nimbus Cloud and Power Pole. GOHAN Gohan, Goku and Chi-Chi's four-year-old son, was named after his adoptive grandfather. Physically, he resembles a young Goku, right down to his tail and his propensity to become a raging Giant Monkey when he looks at a full moon. Spiritually, he is good and pure of heart. Because of his protective mother, Gohan begins life as something of a wimp, but when the Earth is threatened, he reveals his tremendous potential as a fighter. In one instance, he uncontrollably "powers up" in order to rescue his father from a desperate situation. Soon Gohan is forced into training in preparation for the eminent arrival of the evil Saiyans. As a result, he becomes a formidable fighter in his own right under the guidance of Piccolo (the former archenemy of Gohan's father, Goku). Gohan first masters survival training. He is abandoned for six months in the wilderness, where he must battle hunger, scorpions, saber tigers and dinosaurs, among other things. Next comes intense fighting against Piccolo to train Gohan in the art of war. His mission: "to kill the Saiyans and save Earth." Gohan learns many lessons under Piccolo, such as "don't see the enemy, feel him." Their special bond results in Piccolo stepping in front of Nappa's mighty blast to save Gohan's life. Initially caught between "wimp" and "warrior," Gohan's loss of nerve in the battle against the Saiyans costs his friends dearly. Haunted by his failure, he is determined to make up for his cowardice. This determination leads Gohan to Planet Namek, where he searches for the source of the original Dragonball so that he can wish his friends back to life. In the end, Gohan comes through in the final battle as he looks at the moon, turns into a Giant Monkey and lunges toward Vegeta, causing him to flee. Gohan's power when initially kidnapped and placed in the spaceship is 710. It jumps to 1,307 when he sees Goku hurt, then to 28,000 when he goes to fight after Piccolo is injured. His tremendous power is credited to his unique genetic makeup, which makes him a stronger being. GOTEN Goku and Chi Chi's second son. Goten was the youngest super saiyan ever at age 6. During his childhood, he is just like Goku as far as personality and looks. Although he is a little naive, he has fighting in his blood. He competes in 3 martial arts tournaments, but didn't win one. His best friend is Trunks. They hang out a lot together during Dragonball Z. He is also the main character during the Brolly movies. He later fuses with Trunks to become the second ever Super Saiyan 3 ever, Gotenks. As an adult in GT, Goten is pretty lazy. MARRON This is Krillin and Android 18's daughter. The funny thing is she is named after Krillin's beloved and rather ditsy first girlfriend Marron. She is rarely seen to be doing much. Her appearance is any exact mix between Krillin and 18 up to 11 years old. But she develops her mom's looks in GT when she's about 13 and up as shown to the left. RADITZ A strong, powerful Saiyan warrior, Raditz comes to Earth originally to look for Goku, his brother. Angry and intolerant, Raditz can't understand why it has taken so long for his little brother to destroy the helpless humans. Ruthless like all the Saiyans, Raditz plays on Goku's emotions lying to his confused brother to avoid being destroyed. The minute he is saved however, he instantly turns on Goku. His last words reveal that two even more powerful Saiyan will be coming to earth in one year in order to destroy it. And, unfortunately, his Scouter (technologically advanced eyepiece which gives location and power rating of opponents) transmits information about the Dragon Balls to the Saiyans. BULMA Bulma was once a mixed-up teenager with blue hair, a pink outfit and a personality quirk that wouldn't allow her to stop talking for a second. She was immature, emotional, self-centered, impatient, argumentative, boy-crazy and given to fits of hysterics. Now she's blossomed into a mixed-up woman. She may have a new hairstyle and outfit, but she still has that same personality quirk. For that matter, she's also still emotional, self-centered, impatient, argumentative and given to fits of hysterics. Fortunately, she's also incredibly talented and determined. She will do whatever it takes to get what she wants, and she won't let anything stand in her way -- not mountains, not alien invaders, not even pride. As a mechanical genius who can operate and fix anything, Bulma is very important to the team. She discovers the capabilities of the Saiyan Scouter and enhances it for their use. It enables her to save the day more than once for the rest of our heroes. Still, the team concept doesn't always sink in and her independence sometimes flies in the face of her friends' aspirations to work together. MASTER ROSHI An ancient and wise master of martial arts, Roshi has accumulated great power and knowledge. His is very old, completely bald and has a long, white beard. Because he has lived for countless years on a deserted island with only a turtle for companionship, his is also called the "Hermit Turtle." He's also called quirky, a kook, and a smelly old codger. His home, the Kame house, continues to serves as a gathering place for the good guys. Although he may appear strange, frail and harmless, Master Roshi is indeed a great warrior. He originally trained Goku and Krillin when they were young boys and taught them the "Kamehameha" a power that is channeled through the hands, creating a wave of tremendous power that can destroy mountains. The first Earthling to ever understand how to nurture and control the Power of Light, Roshi trains Goku and Krillin in its use. TIEN (Tienshinhan) Tien is one of Earth's greatest defenders and an important member of the Z Warriors fighting team. Tien met Goku many years ago, when he fought and defeated the young Saiyan in a martial arts tournament. Since then, Tien has become even stronger and joined the ranks of the greatest collection of warriors the Earth has ever known. Tien has three eyes and a unique fighting style. He is best friends with the diminutive Chiaotzu and would protect his comrades with his life if need be. YAMCHA Yamcha is a longtime friend and ally of Goku's, though he was once a notorious bandit. He is sometimes accompanied by Puar, his devoted cat companion. He is anxious and willing to be trained by Kami and to join the upcoming battle against the Saiyans even though he understands that the odds will be against them. In the heat of battle Yamcha volunteers to fight the Saibamen instead of Krillin because Krillin has already been brought back to life by the Dragon Balls. He and Bulma were formerly an item, and often illicit sparks fly for each other. Eventually Bulma moves on to Vegeta. Yamcha is defeated during battle with the Saibamen, and trains in the 'Next Dimension' under King Kai. CHI-CHI As the headstrong wife of Goku, some say Chi-Chi is the most powerful woman on Earth (because she can control Goku). They met in Dragon Ball when Chi-Chi saves Goku. Her father, Ox-King, trained her to be a formidable fighter in her own right. In Dragon Ball Z, Chi-Chi is mainly seen as a loving wife and doting mother, concerned and protective, perhaps even over-protective, of her family. She is always encouraging Gohan with his studies and often finds herself stubbornly at odds with Gohan's involvement with the martial arts. Chi-Chi would rather him be studying. KING KAI King Kai is a master of martial arts and is generally regarded as one of the greatest teachers in the universe. He has often helped the Z Warriors learn new fighting techniques. Because he lives on a distant planet at the end of Snake Way, only the luckiest warriors have been able to benefit from his teachings (Goku, Piccolo, and a few others). King Kai's planet may be small, but its gravity is ten times that of Earth's - perfect for martial arts training! Although he is best known as an instructor, King Kai has gained some notoriety for his corny sense of humor and love of bad puns. King Kai's pets - a monkey named Bubbles and a grasshopper named Gregory - often aid him in his rather unusual training practices. NAIL Other than Piccolo, Nail is the strongest Namekian warrior. When Frieza arrives on Namek and attempts to get the Dragon Ball password from Guru, Nail steps in and challenges Frieza to a fight. Frieza quickly complies, and the evil villain easily defeats the great Nail and his followers. After being wished to Namek by the Dragon Balls, Piccolo performs a fusion technique, absorbing Nail's strength and adding it to his own. Fused with Nail, Piccolo becomes more powerful than ever before. NAPPA Fellow warrior and Saiyan with Vegeta, Nappa comes to earth with Vegeta to destroy it. This muscular Saiyan does much of the early fighting on earth including eliminating Piccolo, Yamcha, Tien and Chiaotzu either directly or indirectly through the Saibamen. Nappa may have more brawn than brain and gets overexcited and careless when fighting. Vegeta coaches him to calm down and states that he can win the fight. It is during his Kamehameha beam attack on Gohan and Krillin that Goku swoops in with his Kaio-ken attack to thwart Nappa. Nappa is inferior to and afraid of Vegeta - and for good reason. When Nappa loses the fight to Goku, Vegeta turns on him and immediately eliminates him for his weakness. MAJIN BUU Buu, or Majin Buu, was conjured into existence long ago by the evil wizard Bibidi. A powerful fighter who has destroyed many planets in his past, Buu�s body is �rubbery� giving him great advantage in battles. He has now been unleashed by Bibidi�s son, Babidi, to destroy Earth. Like many of the bad guys in Dragon Ball Z, Buu exists in multiple forms. He is often called simply Buu. This season we will see Majin Buu as the child-like Buu (sometimes called Majin Buu or simply Buu), in his more evil being called Evil Buu and in an even more powerful form called Super Buu. He is in his Evil Buu form very briefly before transforming to Super Buu. He is in his Super Buu form only for the last episode of the Fall 2001 USA season. The following season Buu will be seen in his Super Buu form and in his final form often referred to as Kid Buu. Child-like, Majin Buu does not have a strongly developed sense of good and bad. He agrees to stop hurting people when he discovers it bothers Hercule. Unfortunately the threat to Earth is not over. For from Buu, Evil Buu emerges. EVIL BUU Just when Hercule relaxes because Buu has agreed not to hurt Earth anymore, Buu gets angry. Buu gets so angry that another Buu, Evil Buu, comes out of his back. Tall and gray with boxing gloves, Evil Buu is the manifestation of all of Buu�s anger. Evil Buu and Buu fight. Evil Buu ends up absorbing Buu into his being. This causes Evil Buu to undergo a great transformation, changing him into the mighty Super Buu. SUPER BUU Tall and pink, Super Buu is the form of Majin Buu resulting after Evil Buu absorbs Buu. Like all the Buu�s, he is rubbery. Among Super Buu�s many new powers is the ability to sense energy levels. With this ability, Super Buu locates Kami�s Lookout and goes there to fight. Super Buu launches the most powerful attack in Dragon Ball Z causing widespread destruction. His powers are awesome causing significant problems for our allies. GINYU FORCE When a crew of evil henchmen isn't enough, when it's time to really wreak some havoc, when one elite fighter just won't do... it's time to call on The Ginyu Force! In his mad quest for the seven Namekian Dragon Balls, Frieza enlists the aid of the powerful Ginyu Force. After arriving on Namek, the five members of the Ginyu Force immediately launch an attack on the Z Warriors. Each Ginyu warrior has his own unique powers, and each one has a different method of causing mayhem. They enjoy "striking a pose" during battle. CAPTAIN GINYU With purple skin and black horns, he�s the strongest of the team, and its leader. He has the powerful ability to switch bodies with his opponents. He switches bodies with Goku giving Captain Ginyu the advantage of fighting with Goku's powerful body and also of confusing the team of good guys. This capability does lead to his ultimate demise as he accidentally and forever changes bodies with a frog. BURTER A giant, blue, creature, he is one of the fastest beings alive. Attack: Purple Spiral Flash Attack RECOOME A big, redheaded brute, possessing great strength but slow in speed. Attack: Recoome Boom Breath Blast JEICE With an orange face and huge white hair, Jeice is neither super fast or super powerful. Instead he is a more balanced combination of strength and speed...making him very dangerous. GULDO A short, pudgy, four-eyed creature, Guldo makes up for his lack of strength with his ability to manipulate space and time. Able to read minds, control objects and stop time, he can easily conquer a much stronger foe. GRAND KAI The Grand Kai rules over the four Kai�s. He is second only to Supreme Kai as the overseer of the entire universe. He is also the overseer of the Other World tournament. Grand Kai is reputed as the greatest fighter in the universe, but he�s been out of training for centuries. NORTH KAI The Earth is in the North Quadrant of the universe, thus the being we know as King Kai is also known as North Kai. SOUTH KAI South Kai is the ruler over the South Quadrant of the universe. His quadrant has the reputation of being a peaceful area of space because all the fighters from this quadrant are comparatively weak. SUPREME KAI The Supreme Kai is the highest ruler remaining after Buu's elimination of the other Kais years ago. He becomes the Supreme Kai by default, ruling over Grand Kai and thus all life in the universe. He comes to Earth during the World Martial Arts Tournament to warn Goku about Babidi's plan to revive Buu and to prevent it from happening. WEST KAI Short and chubby, West Kai controls the Universe�s West Quadrant, which is the home of many incredible warriors. Pikkon is his prize fighter. YAJIROBE Yajirobe is one good guy not interested in fighting. Usually on the sidelines, with food in his mouth, he doesn't willingly go near danger and isn't willing to go in the Pendulum Room to train to fight the Saiyans. Yajirobe does come through in the end when he sneaks up behind the Giant Vegeta Monkey and cuts off his tail. He works for Kami and Korin. FRIEZA Haughty, malicious, seemingly invincible and power-hungry with absolutely no compassion, Frieza is feared as the most powerful and evil being in the Universe with no rival being even close to his strength. Upon learning about the legendary Namekian Dragon Balls, Frieza is consumed with a desire to obtain the Dragon Balls, summon the Dragon, and gain his wish for immortality. Then he can rule the entire universe, unrivaled, forever. Understanding the capability of the Saiyans as fighters, he eliminates their planet to destroy the competition. In his search for the Dragon Balls on Namek, he ruthlessly and predictably eliminates all who get in his way. The very mention of his name strikes dread and fear across the universe. Zarbon and Dodoria are Frieza's two evil right hand men. They carry out his requests promptly and without question, knowing Frieza's character too well. Frieza also employs the legendary Ginyu Force to take care of his business. Frieza is a lizard-like creature who can shape-shift into four stages of forms, with each form more powerful than the last. In his first form, Frieza is in a space pod. Second form, Frieza has two horns on his head and his body is larger. Third form: Frieza is in his biggest body and his back is bent. The fourth form is the perfect form. He is in a small body with no angle on his body. He has a fifth appearance. After being beaten by Goku, Frieza is rebuilt with robotic parts, and once again poses a threat to our heroes. KING COLD King Cold is a massive monster with evil ambitions. He is Frieza's father, and is similar to Frieza in many ways. His brutal personality, desire to destroy the world and even his glacial physical appearance and uniform makes the family resemblance to Frieza obvious. It is King Cold that Earth has to thank for 'resurrecting' Frieza following the destruction of Namek when all believe Frieza to have been destroyed. With a new android-like shape, Frieza and his father are headed to Earth. ANDROIDS Evil scientist Dr. Gero created the Androids for his own nefarious purposes. In an attempt to defeat the Z Warriors and destroy the Earth, Dr. Gero even goes so far as to turn himself into an Android. Android 16: Big and powerful, Android 16 prefers to let his muscles do the talking for him. Android 16 joins 18 in the fight against Cell. Android 17: Android 17 is a dark-haired youth with a major attitude problem. He later contributes to the threat against Earth that forces Trunks to travel back in time. Android 18: Android 17's "sister," the beautiful Android 18 has a real mean streak, but she does help our heroes make a final stand against the power-hungry Cell. Android 19: The first Android to arrive on Earth, Android 19 is a clever, overweight warrior with a love for exotic weapons. Android 20: In an attempt to become more powerful than ever, Dr. Gero commands Android 19 to turn him into Android 20. As an Android, Dr. Gero lets nothing get in his way. Dr. Gero's most dangerous creation -- perhaps even more powerful than the Androids combined -- is the genetic nightmare known as Cell. CELL Cell is Dr. Gero's finest creation and the deadliest android of them all. Cell's biology contains DNA from many of the universe's mightiest fighters, including Goku, Vegeta, and Piccolo. As a result of Cell's composite DNA, his fighting skills surpass those of Earth's greatest warriors, and he is able to use their signature attacks as well. In other words, Cell is virtually invincible. In addition, Cell can use his tail to absorb the energy and powers of his opponents. When Cell first appears, he is in his most imperfect form, and his body resembles that of a giant lizard. However, after absorbing a few victims, Cell transforms into Cell Stage Two, and finally, into Perfect Cell. But don't let Perfect Cell's handsome face fool you. Every stage of Cell's metamorphosis is more dangerous than the last. When Cell finally achieves his perfect form, he challenges the warriors of the Earth to a great battle tournament he calls The Cell Game. DR. GERO Evil science genius Dr. Gero creates his most destructive inventions ever. Androids #16, #17, #18, #19, #20 are out to destroy our heroes on the Earth. Putting Earth at peril, these androids have amazing strength and enjoy devastation for its sake. Android 20 is actually Dr. Gero's himself. To make himself more powerful, he instructs Android 19 to turn Dr. Gero into an android. Android 20 is the most vicious and determined android of all. He won't give up. Androids 19 and 20 are the first androids to come to Earth in the Cell Saga. They are defeated by Vegeta in an amazing show of strength. But it's not the end of Android 20 and the great threat to our heroes. Android 20 has been programmed to repair himself, and more androids are about to show up. GARLIC JR. Garlic Junior is a small guy who is both evil and intelligent. He resembles a blue dwarf with big pointed ears, but he is an evil being with keen mental powers and devilish plans to take over the universe. He can, and does, transform into a large monstrous tyrant. His biggest desire is to destroy the Namekian guardian of Earth, Kami, one of the wisest and purest beings ever. In this way, he can rule the Earth. Garlic's father had competed for the position of Earth guardian but he was stopped by Kami who discovered his evil intentions. Garlic Junior was granted immortality by the Eternal Dragon Shenron after collecting Earth�s seven Dragon Balls. But he is locked in the Dead Zone, a black void he created. Garlic Junior is from the Makyo Star, and his power level is proportionate to the Makyo Star's distance. Thus when the Makyo Star nears Garlic Junior, his power is increased and he bursts forth from the Dead Zone to once again put Earth in peril. JANEMBA This is a demon that was created by a an evil boy. All of the boys evilness and powers went into this newly created demon. The round yellow monster didn't have any intention to hurt anyone even though his power was tremendous. Goku defeated him after turning super saiyan three. Then a pile of Janemba's remains transformed into a devil with even greater power. Goku and Vegeta tried taking him on and couldn't defeat him. It wasn't until they correctly fused into Gogeta, that they beat him. BROLY A legendary Super Saiyan. Broly is also known as Burori. He was born with a power level of 10,000! He has hated Goku ever since they were children when Goku made him cry. He only appears in movies 8, 10, and 11. PIKKON Pikkon spends his life in the west quadrant of the galaxy as a great and honorable warrior, then becomes West Kai�s prizefighter when he passes into Other World. Like Goku, Pikkon wants to train under the Grand Kai and joins the Other World Tournament. He advances to the final round and faces Goku. Goku narrowly beats him, but both are disqualified for touching the ring�s ceiling, thus ending the battle in a draw. Like Piccolo, Pikkon wears weighted clothing to train himself between battles. THE GREAT SAIYAMAN During high school Gohan adopts a secret identity when fighting bad guys: the Great Saiyaman. He transforms into the Great Saiyaman with a simple push of a button on his Transformation Band watch. Initially Great Saiyaman wears a helmet. Gohan eliminates this from his wardrobe when entering the World Martial Arts Tournament. Any type of armor is not allowed. Pictured below is the Great Saiyaman both with his helmet and after he eliminates the helmet from his disguise and uses a scarf and sunglasses instead. VIDEL Videl is the daughter of Hercule, aka Mister Savage. Like her father, Videl is a formidable martial arts expert. In fact, she is even more powerful than her father. Videl goes to school with Gohan and becomes obsessed with the Great Saiyaman, even going so far as to don her own Great Saiyaman costume. Videl soon discovers that Gohan is the one dressing up as the city's newest crime fighter. Later, Videl and Gohan become romantically involved and eventually get married. CHIAOTZO A master of telepathy, Chiaotzu has the power to stop people in their tracks and to communicate telepathically. This white-skinned, red-checked little being is the devoted companion of Tien. A strong fighter in the early days, Chiaotzu does not hesitate to throw himself onto Nappa's back and self-destruct in an attempt to save his friends. However, his power level does not increase as dramatically as the other Z fighters. Thus, Chiaotzu is not a major warrior in the later episodes of Dragon Ball Z. KIBITO He is the loyal body guard of Supreme Kai. A strong fighter, he�s lived a long time, though he�s not as old as Supreme Kai. He has the ability to transport himself and others to any other part of the universe. He also has the power to heal those who are injured or near death. PUI PUI Pui Pui is one of the fighters under Babidi�s control. Pui Pui�s first chore is to eliminate Spopovich after Spopovich and Yamu hand over the stolen energy, as Babidi considers them no longer useful. Then, Pui Pui guards the first of the three levels of Babidi�s ship, facing off against Vegeta. Vegeta eliminates him with ease. PAN Pan is the daughter of Gohan and Videl and she is an important character in the Dragon Ball GT series. She is also the strongest female fighter in the series and very adventurous. Pan joined Chibi Goku and Trunks in their search for the black star dragon balls. Pan took control of Goku's mind while he was a Golden Oozaru and caused him to transform to SSJ4. BRA Bulma and Vegeta's second child. She gets her looks from Bulma, and attitude from Vegeta. She is daddies little girl. There isn't much Vegeta wouldn't do for her. She has a bad attitude, a loud mouth, and loves to shop. She also looks just like Bulma. DENDE The lone survivor from his village on the Planet Namek, Dende was rescued by Krillin and Gohan. Unlike Piccolo and other Namekian warriors, Dende does not possess strong fighting abilities. But he does have another crucial capability: the power to heal. Dende is thus important to the good guys during the battle with Frieza. Trustworthy and caring, Dende is loyal to Guru and his fellow Namekians. Later in Dragon Ball Z, Dende replaces Kami as the guardian of the Earth. EAST KAI East Kai is the only female among the four ruling Kai�s. She controls the East Quadrant of the universe, which is known for its speedy fighters. ELDER KAI He was a ruling Kai, most likely the Supreme Kai, fifteen generations before the current Supreme Kai. After his death, Elder Kai was trapped in the Legendary Z Sword. When Gohan snaps the sword in two while training, Elder Kai appears. He agrees to use his powers to bring out Gohan�s latent or hidden capabilities. GOTENKS Characters Combined: Trunks, Goten Goten and Trunks form this new entity by the Metamoru art of Fusion, which was taught to Goku and is passed on to Goten and Trunks while Goku is back from the Other World. The fusion must occur between two beings of equal power (Trunks has to lower his power level to fuse with Goten), and is accomplished by a goofy looking, mirror-image dance. This type of fusion only lasts 30 minutes, and they must recuperate for one hour before fusing again. Goten and Trunks are first trained in the art of Fusion by Goku and then by Piccolo. They try several times before getting it right, creating two awkwardly formed Gotenks in the beginning. Once perfected, the fused Gotenks is an incredibly powerful fighter. Like Goten and Trunks, Gotenks has an amazing ability to learn moves quickly, and quickly manages to go to Super Saiyan and even Super Saiyan 3 or third stage Super Saiyan after watching Goku do it once. VEGETTO Characters Combined: Vegeta, Goku Vegetto was formed when Goku and Vegeta used the Potarra Earrings. He is probably one of the most powerful characters in DBZ since the two best fighters are combined. Originally Goku was supposed to fuse with Gohan but since he was absorbed by Buu Goku had to fuse with Vegeta. They kicked Buu's ass pretty badly and got absorbed purposely to save Gohan, Trunks, Goten, and Piccolo. GOGETA Characters Combined: Vegeta, Goku Gogeta was formed when Goku and Vegeta did the fusion dance. Gogeta is even more powerful than Vegetto. He was first seen in movie 12 to battle Janemba. At first Vegeta screwed up on the fusion dance and they transformed into fat Gogeta. They got beaten up pretty badly but 30 minutes later the fusion wore off and they did it right and beat up Janemba. Gogeta also appeared in GT. GRAND KAI The Grand Kai rules over the four Kai�s. He is second only to Supreme Kai as the overseer of the entire universe. He is also the overseer of the Other World tournament. Grand Kai is reputed as the greatest fighter in the universe, but he�s been out of training for centuries. FROUG From the South quadrant of the Other World. He was destined to loose to Maraikoh in the Other World Tournament but not before putting a good fight. He attempted to push Maraikoh from the ring by swelling up to the size of the arena but his efforts weren�t enough. SAIBAMEN Saibamen are beings grown from seeds for the sole purpose of fighting. Introduced on earth by the Saiyans, they take orders from Nappa and Vegeta and battle the good guys. With fighting power of 1200 each, these six Saibamen are worthy opponents but are defeated. SPOPOVICH Spopovich is a human fighter who competed in the previous World Martial Arts Tournament and lost, being fairly weak. But now he is under Babidi�s control, and therefore has supernatural powers. Among them are the ability to fly and an apparent inability to die. The zombie-like Spopovich is sent to the tournament with his companion Yamu to drain energy from the other fighters for use in reviving Majin Buu. Spopovich defeats Videl in the tournament, drains power from Gohan and uses this energy to feed the Buu cocoon. THE SPICE BOYS The Spice Boys consist of four evil warriors who are under the command of Garlic Jr. They are strong, brave, evil, and totally devoted to Garlic Jr. They give the saga a bit of a comical edge with their names: Mustard, Spice, Salt and Vinegar. The leader is Spice, a white-headed villain and the most handsome of the four. Salt is a short and stubby orange-colored rogue. Both Vinegar and Mustard are large, brawny, muscle men. YAKON Yakon guards the second level of Babidi�s underground ship. Known for his ability to see clearly in dark and move really fast, but of course that wasn�t a problem for Goku. So he turned super saiyan, but then he realized that Yakon likes light (he eats the light) so Yakon eats the Saiyan flame and then again Goku turns super Saiyan and give him more then he can engulf and Yakon blows up. YAMU Yamu is paired up with Spopovich and sent to the World Tournament to gather energy by Babadi the evil wizard. The energy they are sent to gather is needed by Babadi to awake Majin Buu. Once Yamu and Spopovich had completed their task for Babadi he had them killed by his henchmen. Yamu was taken out by Pui Pui one of Babadi�s head cronies. ZARBON Zarbon is one of Frieza's top two henchmen. Zarbon is a very handsome green-haired fighter. He even catches the eye of Bulma despite the fact that he's a bad guy. Zarbon cannot keep up the flawless appearance forever, he has to transform into a huge reptilian-like creature to beat Vegeta. Zarbon beats Vegeta once, but loses and dies at their second confrontation. ARQUA From the East Quadrant of the Other World. He is unfortunate enough to get paired up with Goku in the 3rd match of the quarterfinals during the Other World Tournament. His strength comes in the water which is why he turned the tournament ring into a block of water. He fought a good fight but Goku triumphed in the end after a Kamehameha Wave knocked Arqua and all the water out of the ring. BABA Baba is the comical sister of Master Roshi. Short and squat, she uses her crystal ball to see into the future or to see what is happening in the present in other locations. When the television coverage of the Saiyan fight is interrupted, Master Roshi, Bulma, Chi-Chi, Ox-King and Oolong gather around her ball to see how their friends and loved ones are faring. CATERPY From the South quadrant of the Other World. He never had a chance in the Other World Tournament since his first opponent was Goku. Caterpy actually only lost because during the fight he decided to morph into his ultimate form, which takes 1200 years, so the Grand Kai declared Goku the winner because he didn�t want to wait. CHAPUCHAI From the East quadrant of the Other World. Although known for his speed Chapuchai lost in the first round of the Other World Tournament. The victor in his match was the legendary Earthling Olibu. BABIDI Babidi is a magical creature who wishes to bring Majin Buu back to life. He has unusual magical powers. Babidi uses his powers to bring out the evil in people�s hearts and thus control them. His father was Bibidi, the creator of Buu. Bibidi has an underground ship with three levels, the third and lowest of which houses the �balled-up� Buu or Buu in his cocoon. Babidi seeks to gain enough energy to break Buu�s seal and �re-hatch� him by draining energy from fighters on Earth. DR. BRIEF Intelligent, friendly and easy-going, Dr. Brief is Bulma's father and president of Capsule Corporation. Capsule Corp. makes the capsules Bulma often uses that turn into large objects like cars. His technical genius reveals why Bulma is so handy with machines. Dr. Brief repairs the spaceships so that Goku and the others can go to Namek. Mrs. Brief is the wife of Dr. Brief and mother of Bulma. Friendly and talkative, Mrs. Brief is seen mostly at home. She loves to have company and entertain guests. ERASA Erasa also meets Gohan at Orange High School. She is friends with Sharpner and always seems to be with him. Erasa is pretty good friends with Videl and Gohan. GURU Wise, peace-loving, selfless and good, Guru is the eldest of all Namekians and father to all of his kind. (Namekians are unisex and hatched from eggs.) Guru is also the creator of the Namekian Dragon Balls. When he passes away, the power of the Dragon Balls to summon the Dragon Porunga and have wishes granted, also will pass away. Because Guru is very old and sick, this is a great concern on his planet. Using his powers, Guru brings out the secret power within Krillin and Gohan, and bestows on Dende a powerful healing ability. Guru is guarded by Nail, a strong Namekian warrior trained in all the ancient Namekian fighting techniques. HERCULE An expert at PR, Hercule has always been a champion at gaining credit for himself. He is not always the tough guy he appears to be� in fact he can be quite cowardly. He was the World Martial Art�s Champion of the previous tournament and manages to win the title again by doing a side deal with Android 18...the other finalist for the championship title. Despite his faults, he does the Earth a good turn. He befriends Buu eventually convincing Buu to stop hurting the people of Earth. Unfortunately, this pledge does not last when Buu becomes angry because his puppy is hurt. JEWEL Jewel thinks he gods gift to women. He too fights in the Battle Royale during the World Tournament Three with the last four remaining contestants. He hits on No. 18 and tries to get her to throw the match, she answers with a hard blow that sends him soaring out of the ring and gets him disqualified. KEMI Kami, guardian of Earth is originally from the Planet Namek. He created the Dragon Balls on Earth. Desiring to be good and pure, Kami cast off his negative evil side which became Piccolo. Thus the two are mysteriously linked. If and when one passes away, the other will pass away also. And of course, if Kami the creator of Earth's Dragon Balls passes away, so will the power of Earth's Dragon Balls. He has some capability of seeing into the future, and can also sense the change when Piccolo starts becoming a better person. Kami brings Tien, Yamcha, Chiaotzu, and Krillin together for training in the famous Pendulum Room, the center of all past, present and future, and then sends them back to earth to prepare for the Saiyans. When Goku is killed fighting Raditz, Kami takes Goku to the Next Dimension for training with King Kai. Kami lives with his friend Mr. Popo on "Kami�s Lookout," a tower which floats high above the Earth. Later, Kami fuses with Piccolo to make Piccolo stronger. KILAH Kilah is a participant in the World Tournament Three and fights in the Battle Royale as well. He doesn�t last very long and with one punch Goten and Trunks disguised as Mighty Mask launch him from the ring. KING YEMMA Great King Yemma is the most powerful and the fastest ogre in the other world. He sits at the entrance desk of the 'Next Dimension' and admits people into 'The Upper World' or 'The Lower World.' He was also the first to make it all the way down Snake Way. KORIN Korin, a cat, is a wise martial arts master that lives in 'Korin's Tower'. Korin grows the magical healing Senzu Beans that often help the Z Fighters in battle. He hangs out with Yajirobe. MARAIKOH From the West Quadrant of the Other World. He has to fight Froug at the beginning of the Other World Tournament and beats Froug by throwing him from the ring. His efforts were wasted after Goku decided to triumph over Maraikoh the same way he had taken Froug. MIGHTY MASK He would have been a participant in the World Tournament Three if Trunks hadn�t knocked him out and taken his costume so that Goten and him could fight in the adult division. Trunks and Goten get found out about during the Battle Royale when No. 18 cuts their disguise in half with an energy blast and they get disqualified. MR. POPO Mr. Popo is the servant of Kami. He has been on Earth longer than the present Kami, and will remain to serve the next guardian of Earth. He helps Bulma, Krillin, and Gohan get to Namek by showing Bulma the location of Kami's old ship. Though small and silly in appearance, Mr. Popo is a powerful fighter, and wise, truthful and reliable. He assists Kami in saving the Earth from Garlic Jr. OLIBU From the North quadrant of the Other World. King Kai said that most of Earth�s heroic legends are based on Olibu and a few cartoons too. The well-known Olibu lost early during the Other World Tournament to Pikkon who made it all the way to fight Goku in the last match. OOLONG He�s a shape-shifting pig who joined forces with the good guys. He attended the same shape-shifting school as Puar, but cheated to pass. Oolong can only change shape for a short period of time and then has to rest. Not much of a fighter, he mostly hangs out at Master Roshi�s home. OX-KING This giant of a man is Chi-Chi�s father. Once a great fighter, he trained under Master Roshi alongside Goku�s adoptive father, Gohan, but he rarely fights any more. Ox-King trained his daughter to be a formidable fighter, so that she could protect herself and her family. He visits Goku and Chi-Chi�s house often and enjoys eating meatloaf. PINTAR Pintar is a participant in the World Tournament Three. He goes up against Krillin in the first match of the World Tournament. But he doesn�t get any farther than that after Krillin knocked him out of the ring with a slap kick combo. PORUNGA The Namekian Dragon Porunga can be summoned after gathering all seven of the Namekian Dragon Balls. He is more brutal looking than the Earth Dragon, Shenron. Also, he has the power to grant three wishes instead of one - as long as the wishes do not exceed the power of the one who created the Dragon Balls, and as long as this creator lives. PRINCESS SNAKE Princess Snake has been princess of Snake Way for the last 1500 years. And she is pretty, the winner of beauty awards. Since it has been over 500 years since they had guests, Princess Snake is intrigued by the arrival of Goku and tries to trick him into staying by placing Sleepy Grass into his food. When that doesn't work, she tries to force him into staying. Princess Snake has a dream mirror which she uses to discern Goku's dreams. PUAR Puar is the devoted companion of Yamcha. They met Goku and Bulma together in the first series, Dragon Ball. Puar is a shape-shifting blue cat who went to the same school as Oolong. Unlike Oolong, Puar can shift shapes without having to stop and rest every few minutes. SHARPNER Attends Orange High School with Gohan. Sharpner likes Videl who also attends Orange High School. He is very athletic and likes to work out. When we first meet Sharpner he devotes most of his time to finding out who the Great Saiyan Man is. He later discovers that the Gohan is the Great Saiyan Man. SHENRON Like the Namekian Dragon Porunga, Earth's Dragon Shenron can be summoned by gathering all seven of the Dragon Balls. Shenron can bestow any wish as long as it does not exceed the power of its creator and as long as the creator still lives. In Shenron's case, the creator is Kami. Unlike Porunga, however, Shenron can only grant one wish per summoning. TORBIE From the South quadrant of the Other World. Torbie goes up against Tapcar and doesn�t even have to lift a finger to claim his victory. Tapcar wore his self out parading around the tournament ring as fast as he could until he was so tired that he choose to give up. |
