| CHARACTER SUMMARY |
|---|
 | Son Goku is the main character in the Dragonball series. The name "Son Goku" is taken from a Chinese mythological figure. Goku is a member of the fighting race the Saiyan (Saiya-jin) from planet Vegita. He, like all Saiyans, has a simian tail. With it he can transform into a large ferocious ape and become very destructive. As an infant he was sent on a mission to help condition earth for take over, but a childhood head injury made him forget his primary objective. Thus becoming the gentle and sweetly innocent person we see now. As a child Goku had his tail removed and is no longer able to transform into an ape.
|
| Goku's strength lies in his passion to fight and to be the best fighter. He strives on fighting strong opponents. When it seems that Goku is beat he always comes up with something to fend off defeat. He was trained by great teachers such as Mutenroshi (or Kame-sennin, the turtle master), Sennin (that cute chubby cat with the sensu beans), and Kaio-sama (King Ki). When Goku matures (at around age 16-17) he marries Ox King's daughter Chi Chi. Together they have two children: Son Gohan and Son Goten. |  |
 | During the battle of Freeza, Goku was the first to inherited the ability to change into the legendary Super Saiyan. Having always the challenge of fighting stronger opponents, it was typical of Goku to stay ahead of everyone. What is strange about Goku is his ability to outwit and befriend his enemy. Some of his past enemies later become his ally. He does not bother nor care about leaders of Earth, politics, and power. His only concern is the righteousness of humanity (and all other races for that matter) and fighting strong opponents.
