The Histories of Races
Here are the histories of all the races in Z which have them. I advise that if you are a new member, you should read up on your chosen race. All other members, please read these if you have some spare time.
Tsufurujins
The Tsufurujins have been around since the beginning of time. They quickly rose as the smartest beings to have ever existed. They knew things over 100 years before the Earthlings did. They invented travel fast than light speed. Then, the saiyans arrived in a space ship, the aliens first known to have ever set foot on Planet Plant. No one truly knows how they got there, or where they came from. They lived peacefully with the Tsufurjins, in the jungles which contrasted very much with the technologically advanced Tsufurujin cities.
One day, for no apparent reason, the Saiyans attacked. There was a great war, and due to their advanced technology, the Tsufurujins were winning. Then a full moon came, and the Saiyans all turned Oozaru! They smashed the Tsufurujins. If not for the quick thinking of King Jamner and Queen Galaria, no Tsufurujins would have survived. The monarchs moved every living Tsufurujin and allied Saiyan to New Plant, a small artificial planet which at that time was only a colony. After they finished it and it made it to what it is today, they lived in peace.
Then they were hunted down. Freeza, the Saiyans' newfound boss, had noticed that there were signs a ship had blasted off during the war. He alerted his brothers, King Kold 2 and Koola, along with King Kold 3, that they should look for this ship or a colony. King Kold 2 happened to be the tyrant who ruled the region in which the Tsufurujins had created their colony. He immediately started attacking them, but they resisted. For many years. Eventually King Kold 3 joined the fray, and soon so did the rest of the Kolds (Kolds 1-3, Freeza, and Koola). Eventually the Tsufurujins won, and have been living in peace ever since then.
Saiyans
The Saiyans' original planet has been long forgotten. The first records of their existence was made by the Tsufurujins, when the Saiyans arrived on their planet. The Saiyans lived in the jungles while the Tsufurujins lived in very technologically advanced cities.
One day, however, the Saiyans attacked with no apparent reason. They were losing, until the moon came out in full and turned them all Oozaru. They crushed every Tsufurujin left on the planet, and inhabited their cities, placing their own king, Vegeta, in the throne. One day, a changeling by the name of Freeza came. He took Vegeta jr. (We know him as Vegeta), the Saiyan Prince, and enslaved him. Then after years of threatening the Saiyans, he took off into space. Years later, Vegeta escaped and went to Earth.
Now the Saiyans live in peace. They are still brutal warriors, no longer under Freeza's rule. They don't even dare to attack the Tsufurujins now, for they have no need to. They got what they came for: a new home.
Humans
Humans have been on Earth since they first evolved from apes (sorry, we may have a lot of different beliefs in Planet Z, so we're going scientific). They advanced slowly compared to the Tsufurujins, but quickly compared to the Saiyans, until the Saiyans got the Tsufurujin technology. By the year 700 A.T.B. (After Technology Boom. Andrew, we are going by normal DBZ, right?), the Humans had flying cars, Dinocaps, and much more. They have the same technology now that the Tsufurujins had before attaining light speed travel. The greatest threat the humans ever ran into was Duriel. Even that wasn't too bad after he moved to bigger and better things.
Namekians
The Namekians have lived on Namek longer than anyone remembers. The first Namekian was Guru. Not even he remembers how he came to be. The only thing known is that every Namekian except for Piccolo (Majunia and Damaio) and Kami originally came from him (Kami is the son of Katatsu (spelling unknown)). The only threat they have ever faced was the former changeling invasion.
Changelings
The Changelings have not always lived on the planet Freeza. It is unknown where they came from, however it is believed that it was named Kold, for the original King of the Changelings was named Kold. The Kold name was passed down for ages, until so many had the name Kold that it was forgotten what number they were, until the most famous King Kold decided he'd be the first, for he was starting a new era in the Changeling history. He became a tyrant, and sent his 3 sons Kold 2, Freeza, and Kooler out to different parts of the Eastern Universe. King Kold remained in the west, Kold 2 went to the East, Kooler went to the south, and Freeza went to the North. Eventually, Kold 2 had a son, Kold 3, who took over the East while his father went to the center, and made sure his whole family did their job. Thus the Tyrant Era began.
Then, Kold 3 was having trouble. Being a young ruler, he could no longer control his quadrant. So in bitter defeat, he moved in with Freeza, to help the youngest of the Changeling sons. Then Kooler ran into problems, so he shared the East with Kold 2. Then a giant uprising began, and King Kold, Kold 2, and Kooler had to move to the north, where they all lived on Planet Freeza. They called every Changeling to live with them, and from there ruled different areas of the Northern Quadrant of the Eastern Universe.
The Changelings continued the Tyranny, until a resistance was formed. Prince Sargasko Koshiko Ferda was at the head of it, helped by Shaft, Blaze, Artemis, and many more (forgive me if I left you out, you will be added in upon contacting me (Ben)). They crushed the Kolds, and Sargasko finished them by wishing himself to Freeza via the Earth's Eternal Dragon, and wishing for the destruction of Planet Freeza, and all Changelings throughout the Universe.
This did not last forever. Eventually, someone wished back the Changelings and their planet, and then wished for them to forget the Kolds ever existed. While Sargasko was not happy with the first wish, the second wish did not bother him at all. The Changelings have been generally quiet since then, except for a small outburst several months ago.
Phoeniyans
The Phoeniyan race is an enigma, brother race to the Kisenians. Their heads wield an unquenchable flame that rages withtheir emotions. How they got this flame is unknown to all phoeniyans as the records have been lost, but it was shortly after this phenomenon that the Kisenians split fromt he Phoeniyans to become a different race. The first leader of the Phoeniyans as we know them today was King Kijix. That was known as the First Generation of the Phoeniyans, and there have been 10 Kings and 10 Generations since. Bax is the 11th King of Star. His father, who was King 40 years ago (9th), died when Bax was 10, 19 years ago. His brother, who was King from then on (10th), died when Bax was 16. Bax was prince for 2 years until he became married and is now the current King of Star. The next heir is his only son, Jax.
Because of Star's powerful dragonballs, Star has always had many enemies. There are several races and planets who covet their close bonds with other powerful planets. Thus Star's army had to grow, and now composes about 1/4 of the population of Star. Star always made easy allies, and thus never lost any planetary wars. Like all planets, it has been destroyed, but the destruction of Star has always been forgotten as it quickly recovers after being recreated. During the 8 Year Peace, Star made allies with most planets of the universe, except for a save few. However, because of recent events when Bax was tragically killed, the universe has broken all of their bonds and gone to war with eachother.
One of Star's major enemies is the planet Avernia, Planet of the Water. Because Kisenia and Star's people are known as the Children of the Phoenix, their very nature suggests an eternal war between the people of Avernia. So, Kisenia and Star become allies again to fight Avernia and their leader, Amphitrite.
The people of Star welcome in all races, but Shape Shifters have played massive parts in their histories, such as the two who posed as Bax and Trenix at one time when Star was attacked, the former enemy of New Plant, Shik, A.K.A. Red Dragon, and the legendary Shape Shifter, Shaft, A.K.A. Black Spider. Recently, since Bax's reign, Star has been under constant attack. It is assumed that it is because of the publicization of Star's dragonballs, but there is no clear reason why Star has made so many enemies in these trying times.
Androids
The ever famous beings made from a formerly living host or from complete machines, these powerful beings are equipped with the power to create either great destruction, or to stop any force that stands in their way from accomplishing it's goal. There are been many scientists who have built Androids, one of the most famous being Dr. Gero, among others. He was the creator of the being, Cell, who merged with Dabura and King Kold II to create one of the most deadly warriors that this universe has ever seen. Androids history is so recent that it doesn't really exist. Yet.
Yardrettians
The Yardrettians have been in general silence. Until about a decade or two ago, they were nto even known to exist. That is, until they introduced their current economic staple: amazing gravity chambers. When they formed a pact with New Plant to create stronger, faster ships, no one could resist buying these new ships, and Yardratt has now become quite wealthy, and the Yardrettians more well-known.
Kisenians
Thousands of years ago a group of rebellious Phoeniyans escaped prison after a vicious assaination attempt on the king. They stayed with the same religious values of the Phoeniyans, but vowed to take revenge on those who imprisoned them. They bred Pheonix's as weapons and learned the defence of Black Fire Magic from the much dread Kisenian Blossom Witch, a magic past on to all the Royals of Kisenian Heritage. Inturn, these five men and women were the Fathers (and mothers) of a highly sophisticated and vegeful race of Dark Fire Magic. However, 600 years ago, a peace pact was made, and the Kisenians and phoeniyans have become good allies since then. Usually.
Usually around 5 feet in height, Kisenians have brightly cloured hair and eyes, ranging from Red to gold to pink.
Most Kisenians are tattooed at birth for a form of identification and many have scares as a mark from the Fire Baptism they recieved as infants. Kisenians are as vengeful as they come, they can hex you, and can retain a grudge for thousands of years by passing the hatred down to thier offspring. Kisenians are rebellious and often known to turn against allies. Most of them are highly trained warriors, where Love and Mercy are not in thier vocabulary.
The Phoenix is a sacred bird to them and as is the fire blossom sacred to their temples, which grows where ever the tear drop of a pheonix lands. The core of exsistence, like the Phoeniyans, is the Book Of Ares, and like both races, the book's essence is made purely of flame, and will be extinguished in water, thus ending the lives of both the Kisenian and the Phoeniyans. Through the centuries the Kisenians have made a delicate truce with the Phoeniyans, the elders who declared the truce over 600 years ago, it picked several of their desendants as the children of the Phoenix, the exsistance of these children and their decendants is to guard The Book Of Ares. Their powers are at their peak when the 4 warriors are united in one battle.
The 2 Kisenian protectors are usually female, and royalty, although their survival depends on these children, they are never certain whom the kids might be.
Cyntians
Tall and not all that graceful Cyntains are one unusual race. They live onthe moon of Cyntus, which orbits around Pathus, a similar race. With a very blurry background, what everyone knows so far is Cyntains aren't very social and only have a small circle of friends - mostly loners. Cyntains are obsessed with fighting and action. A very private race, the Cyntains don't let anyone in on there feelings. So romantic that they�re very weak. Yet, with their long nails and short tempers they�re unusually good fighters and take part in many tournaments yet never hold any of there own. The queen and king of the planet are the most unsocial and are very snobby but recently have been even snobbier and never mingling with the "commoners". This was about to change when something happened. They never knew what. So they keep up the old ways.
Demons
Another mysterious race, shrouded in mystery. They were led by the demon Dabura before he became Duriel for thousands of years. Before Dabura, it was his father. In fact, new records show evidence of the beginning of the Demon civilzation eons ago. New research shows that it is expected that the first manifestation of Apocalypse happened shortly after the death of the first Demon King. It is unsure what this could mean, but historians are constantly seeking new ideas.
Serconians
Shape Shifters
Another mysterious and powerful race, they make perfect assassins and infiltrators because they can look like anyone and even make themselves into weapons. Their power is sought by many, but cannot be perfected because of it's complexity. They are of an ancient race once called the Guardians that sougth to protect the universe from destruction, and succeeded on numerous occasions. However, many have turned their back on their past and become assassins and the like. In the past decade, a number of Shape Shifters have come to the front and become extremely important in shaping history the way it is present day...
