This game acknowledges Dragonball, Dragonball Z and the movies associated with those two series. It refers to Frieza's Race as Arcosians and their home planet as Arcose. None of the games nor Dragonball GT are considered canon here. Much of the old is forgotten by the time this game takes place, such as dragonballs, Dende's Lookout, Korin's Lookout, Kame House, etc.
Last time on Dragonball: Final Hour...
With the Earth at peace again, the Saiyans could seemingly calm down but Vegeta grew vigilant, ensuring that his lineage had the fortitude to protect their new home. He trained Trunks in military strategies, while Bulma taught him science. When Trunks inherited Capsule Corp, he began to implement the plan for the Earth Defense Force. The Saiyan lineage was carefully conserved and the race grew. Trunk's greatest advancement toward defending Earth was the encapsulation of energy, including transformation energy, like that used to go Super Saiyan. Unlike, the mass produced capsules used for matter, the energy capsules were not given freely to the world.
Meanwhile the Emperor Pilaf finds the Dragon Balls and wishes for immortality. His second life is then spent building a business. In his travels, Pilaf discovered one of the Red Ribbon bases. Using some of the old technology their, the emperor was able to locate more. Over time, he was able to gather much of Dr. Gero's research. He would eventually meet a shrewd business partner that helped him get started. With the man's help, he hired scientists to sift through the late Gero's work. The final result was Royal Robotics, Emperor Pilaf taking the former army's logo as his own in a twisted joke. The corporation focused on creating in home robotics and companion androids.
A tiny sect of the Red Ribbon Army carried on the name, mostly as a gang. Until they were met by a fanatic that had extensively studied the original Red Ribbon Army. The man simply calling himself Red Leader, systematically took over the organized crime of Earth. Red Leader overthrew mob bosses and small town gang leaders alike on his own, the Red Ribbon Army ever following close behind. The goal of this army was no longer to find the Dragon Balls, content to rule from the shadows of the criminal underworld.
Both Capsule Corp and Royal Robotics become closely entangled with Earth's politics, getting their own advisers to the King of Earth. All the while, the growing Red Ribbon Army buy off more and more of the government, unable to buy off the King of Earth himself.
The Namekian race cultivated New Namek, planting many food crops that would eventually be exported to Earth. Set into their warrior and dragon clan system, the race lived peacefully for many years. Eventually, some of the warriors grew restless, their will to protect their home causing them to leave it and search out danger. Endorsed by Capsule Corp, the Namekians became known as Guardians, taking up the name that Kami and Dende held for protecting Earth. Piccolo would eventually join these Guardians. New Namek's trade deal with Earth, kept it safe and cozy for many years.
The Arcosian Empire which was greatly influenced by the Planet Trade Organization under the command of Frieza, lost much of its power after the death of Frieza. While the race is inherently strong by anyone's standards, Frieza's family in particular was always a cut above the rest. With the Planet Trade Organization scattered and falling apart, the Arcosian Empire had to resort to utilizing its own army to bring the North Galaxy back under its control.
By the time that the real Galactic War broke out, Earth and Namek, had already created a united front, with the planets being protected by technologies from both Royal Robotics and Capsule Corp. A rebuilt Arcosian Empire made up of thousands of beings faced off against the Earth Defense Force and The Guardians. Both planets were protected by a shield that kept everything out once activated.
Unable to breach the shields, facing over three hundred Super Saiyans and a hundred Namekian warriors, the Arcosians were having a tough time. That is until they brought forth their allies, the Makaioshin from the Demon Realm. Stronger than most of the Arcosians, the Makaioshins started to win the war for the Arcosians. At this point, Majin Buu joined the fray and split himself into many different beings, creating a whole new race. With the added help of the Majins, the Arcosian Empire was beaten back and forced to retreat.
Months later once the shields were lowered around Namek, some of the Makaioshin landed and proceeded to live on New Namek. Guardians were placed over them, carefully keeping watch. Due to the nature of the Makioshin, they began to warp the Gaurdians keeping watch. The Namekians mutated, gaining new abilities and features, their personalities becoming twisted and dark. As these Guardians fell under the influence of the Makaioshins, more were sent to check out the situation. These Guardians gave into their dark sides when their former comrades sank their fangs in. Soon an entire clan rose up and attacked the rest of the Namekians, attempting to turn the whole race into slaves to the Makaioshin.
Piccolo arrived, the strongest member of his race, but he would succumb to the many bites of the tainted ones. Turned into the Demon King Piccolo once again, the Namekian went on to ravage his planet. What Namekians survived the initial devastation flocked to the teleporter linked to Earth. The initial flood was accepted but as soon as the first of the mutants appeared, the link between Earth and New Namek was cut.
New Namek was then officially turned over to the Arcosian Empire, what few untainted Namekians remained hid deep underground. Earth and its moon was left as the only unclaimed territory in the North Galaxy. Entirely cut off from the rest of the galaxy by the shields, Earth began focusing its efforts on colonizing the moon. The Arcosian Empire would eventually accept a treaty with Earth, in which the King Of Earth and the Arcosian Emperor meet every five years to discuss the ever changing terms. Such a meeting is held with a tournament, showcasing the Galaxy's greatest warriors.
While the last three meetings and tournaments have went well, the tensions between the quickly crowding races of Earth and the Arcosian Empire are growing ever more taught. The Fourth Galactic Tournament is fast approaching. How much longer until it all snaps? Will Earth unleash its forces upon the Arcosian Empire? Would they even matter anymore? Find out....on the next episode of Dragonball: Final Hours!

The homeworlds.
Arcose World History
Their homeworld of the Arcosians is an awful nearly barren ball of ice and rock, with an enormous gravity and thin atmosphere that most races could not survive. While the gravity has always been so extreme, the temperature and atmosphere was not. Arcose used to be a large gaseous world with a small rocky center that was periodically ravished by a terrible storm every few hundred thousand years. The storm would wipe out nearly all life. Eventually a single celled organism developed the ability to put itself into stasis to survive the storm. Life began to flourish again, even through the storm.
Then the star at the center of Arcose began to die, getting very large and hot. It burned off most of the atmosphere and unleashed an unimaginable amount of energy that killed almost everything once again. The organisms that survived were vastly changed and aggressive. Slowly the system grew cold and what carbon dioxide remained tuned to dry ice, creating the outer layer around the rocky mantle. When the first Arcosians finally became aware of themselves, they noticed a difference in colors on certain shiny parts of their bodies. They divided themselves into like color and began to fight others of different colors.
The Arcosians would dig into four large mountains to create the homes for these different clans. War continued to be waged between the clans, but the Blue clan received the worst of it. They controlled the largest mountain, something the other clans could not forgive. Another race mistakenly landed on this mountain, only to have their spaceship stolen from them. The head of the Blue Clan proceeded to subjugate the other three clans, the Yellow, Green and Red, to his will and crowned himself the Lord of Arcose. The Blue Clan became royalty, with the other clans swearing unwavering loyalty to their Lord but not to the other Clans.
Knowing the chaos that could be returned to Arcose, its Lord made a single law that all disputes must be settled through duels. To protect the mountains from such conflict, a coliseum was built. At some point in time one of the Lord's children with a Red clan woman was birthed with a mutation that made him ridiculously powerful at birth. This child would challenge his father's power and in turn be given leave to create the Planet Trade Organization(PTO), controlling the Arcosian Empire outside of Arcose. A great space port was built to serve as both the headquarters of the PTO and the center of imports.
One day, from one of the deep icy crags, a ten foot beast appeared. Covered in chitinous armor, the creature had long and lanky looking arms with huge hands, upon which it walked. The spaces in the armor showed a thick fur beneath. It was in search of food but was quickly finding the atmosphere to thin. Chancing upon the beast, an Arcosian was able to provide the creature with an oddity it had encountered, a breathing mask. After covering the large ape-ish face, this beast then followed the Arcosian around as a dutiful pet-slave.
Intrigued by the beast, the Arcosians would delve beneath the surface of Arcose to find more of the beasts to be enslaved. Living in a subterranean pocket closer to the molten core the beasts thrived in a slightly warmer environment. Herbivorous, these would servants fed off large barky vegetation that was quickly dying out. Bringing more of the masks to their homeworld, the Arcosians began to put the Servants to work.
Society & Culture
Arcosians come in one of two “bloods', “Pure” which can be seen from one of the four primary colors, or “Mixed Bloods” that can be just about any color. All Arcosians are born into a sort of larval state that slowly grows larger until the Arcosian bursts out from it in its True Form. Once they have left their larval form, they are not allowed to leave their home until they have mastered their Diplomatic Form. With that under control, the Arcosian may venture out into the rest of their mountain. A Mixed Blood is forbidden from leaving their respective mountain, though there have been some exceptions, but one who is Pure may after they complete their Combat Form.
Upon acquiring an acceptable Combat Form transformation, an Arcosian is given a test to hunt out an Ice Behemoth and acquire the creature's heart as proof. This proof marks a Pureblood as an adult in the Arcosian society. Adult Purebloods take one of two paths, that of the delegates or that of the warrior. A delegate will spend their life trying to gain favor from the Lord of Arcose or from their Clanlord through the court by showing promise. On the other hand the warrior will prove their abilities in the Coliseum, possibly winning themselves and their clan favor.
As full fledged adults the Pureblood may go where they please on their planets, but females are not permitted to leave the planet, as they tend to be fewer in number than males of the species. Mixed Blood adults spend most of their time in the second to lowest level of their mountains, the lowest reserved for the Servants. These second class citizens are only allowed to leave this place if they have shown exceptional promise in combat, which then they may be sponsored by a Pureblood to enter the Coliseum as a gladiator. Gladiators live in the Coliseum, providing sport for the Arcosians whenever other warriors are not battling and no duels are occurring.
Older Arcosians that have proved their usefulness in combat tend to find themselves in the military. Those older and proven capable delegates find that they are given control of various sectors throughout the universe. Some Purebloods care for neither path and are content with their station, leading a life of luxury.
Demon Realm History
The Demon Realm is a nigh inhospitable place full of danger and constant conflict. It is linked to the rest of the universe via various Demon Gates. Naturally inhabited by many lower and weaker demons, it is also home to the Makaio and Makaioshin. Split into ten different provinces, each of which are ruled by a particularly powerful Makaio and owned by a Makaioshin. The actual realm was under the charge of the strongest Makaio at any particular time, who was crowned the Demon King.
That is until a Demon Gate fell into the hands of the Arcosian Empire and they had it transported to Arcose. Once the gate was there, the Arcosians invaded the Demon Realm and laid waste to all of inhabitants save for the Makaioshin who lived within their city in the clouds. From high above the Makaioshin watched with amusement as province after province fell to the invaders. When all of the Demon Realm was conquered and Lord Shiver declared himself Lord over the Demon Realm as well, they appeared.
With bolts of lightning, the crashing of thunder and trembling of the ground beneath the Arcosian's feet, the Makaioshin made themselves known. The leader of the Arcosians declared his providence and dominion over the realm. So amused were the gods of the Demon Realm, that they simply shrugged and let it be true. When they heard of the changes in the universe and the trouble the Arcosians were having with the planet called Eath, the Makaioshin were intrigued.
Offering their help, once again out of the idea of how amusing it could be, the true masters of the Demon Realm sealed an alliance with the Arcosian Empire. Whether Lord Shiver knew it or not, he was Lord of the Demon Realm in name only and the Arcosians he left behind had plenty of trouble from the local rabble after he left with the Makaioshin. Even though the inhabitants are no challenge for the mortal invaders, they is no end to the resistance they face.
Society & Culture
The lesser demons that do not serve a Makaio tend to hide away from any other inhabitants of the Demon Realm, content to hermit nearly all their lives away. Many Makaio spend their entire lives trying to attain one thing, the crown of the King of the Demon Realm. A few aspire to other things, such as science or various forms of magic, but they are rare. Now that the crown has fallen into the hands of the Arcosians, they have focused their attacks on these invaders.
Makaioshin live high above the provinces on a floating circle made of dark clouds, with a sun-like source of light in the center. This special place is home only to the Makaioshin and the privileged few they choose as their servants. Spending their time watching the conflict of the realm within the glowing center, the gods of the Demon Realm rarely interfered. The dark clouds listen to their every thought, forming seats and tables whenever needed, as it floats randomly over the provinces.
Since coming to the Mortal Realm, the Makaioshin have taken up residence on New Namek. Typically, two are always at the side of the Demon King Piccolo, while the locations of the others are unknown. It is rumored that they either return home or spend are out searching for more minions to enslave with their evil.
Society & Culture
The Human race for the most part remains ignorant, lazy and unmotivated, believing wholeheartedly that they are safe behind the barrier. Even if the barrier were to be destroyed, the Saiyans, Namekians, Majins and Androids could surely protect them. Still there is a small surge in those that show interest in devoting themselves to martial arts or science, since the end of the war. These humans spends their days either determinedly training or passionately studying.
Since the arrival of the Namekians, Capsule Corp and Royal Robotics are working together to create a terraforming machine in the hopes of terraforming the moon. With this machine, a few scientists and a few androids, the Namekians are relocated to the smaller celestial body. Their goal, to try and be able to replace the supply of food that was lost when Earth was cut off from New Namek.
Majins returned to Earth after the war and are entirely without purpose. Lost and confused, but inheriting enough knowledge to speak and fight, the race now finds itself scattered. Without a real moral compass, many are getting themselves into trouble and seem to be finding that their innocently mischievous nature is a bit of a burden. A few have found they like being more mischievous, even landing spots in the Red Ribbon Gang.
The Androids continue on with all of their normal duties, serving their human masters without complaint. Of the few that have gained true artificial intelligence, most are content to study such questions as the meaning of life and whether they are actually alive or not. Some Androids have gone missing and are likely being re-purposed by the Red Ribbon Gang
Saiyans have not changed in the slightest, content to train every day using the facilities provided by Capsule Corp. From an early age, some as early as four or five, these people begin training. They train their bodies to get stronger, faster and sturdier. They train their minds, either to handle the Oozaru form or to better aid themselves in battle. Eventually, once they become strong enough, they begin training to use the transformation capsules that allow them to achieve Super Saiyan and beyond.
Society & Culture
What was once a peaceful planet full of contented farming has fallen into disarray. The crops have withered and most of the buildings have been destroyed. Crazed members of the Demon Clan scurry about looking for something to sink their fangs into. These once happy people now feed on each other, tearing limb from limb. Then they watch the limbs grow back, only to tear them off again, while howling in laughter so inhuman.
The only members of this Clan that do not run about with their minds overtaken entirely by madness are those that were bitten by the Demon King Piccolo. The new King of New Namek sits almost like a statue upon a dilapidated throne in the battered ruins of the Elder's home, commanding his minions without a single spoken word. Such creatures are loyal to a fault, secretly following his every order as they try to reign in this curse. Behind the king are always two Makaioshin that seem to be ever whispering little commands of their own, though the two are not always the same.
A list of guidelines for techniques and some examples.
Techniques come in one of four types; Physical, Ki, Combination and Mystical. Physical techniques are your normal every day punches, kicks, grapples and other moves that one could do in real life. Ki techniques use some of the user's life force to project or throw an attack made of energy, the most basic of these is the Ki Blast. Combination techniques combine both the physical and Ki together to create powerful attacks. The final, the Mystical is the magical arts, it uses the energy outside the body in many powerful but dangerous ways.
A fighter may know an unlimited number of physical techniques and needs no way to keep track of them, they can also be made up on the spot. Ki techniques however must be learned or created, usually requiring a vast amount of time to do so. They come in four levels.
Level 1 Ki Techniques
All fighters are capable of using Level 1 Ki Techniques. These are the very basics, essentially freebies that don't need to be put down on the character sheet. They are:
Ki Blast – The most basic of Ki techniques, the user channels their Ki into a ball and fires it or throws it at their enemy. The most famous Ki Blast is the Spirit Bomb.
Ki Wave – The next most basic technique, the user unleashes a continuous stream of Ki energy at their opponent. The most famous Ki Wave is the Kamehameha
Ki Aura – Most often seen and used when a fighter powers up, concentrating the Ki inside their body. An aura can be used to attack or defend, as is the case with Ki Barriers.
Level 2 Ki Techniques
Level 2 Ki techniques are those that require no time to charge and very little concentration to pull off. Some examples include:
Solar Flare – Placing their hands in front of their face, with their fingers open and just outside their eyes, the user yells out the name of the attack and unleashes flash of Ki that blinds the user.
Ki Barrier – By solidifying their Ki Aura, a fighter can defend themselves with a barrier.
Dodonpa – The fighter points their finger at an enemy and lets loose a small thin beam meant to strike a precise spot on their opponent.
Renzoku Kikodan – The user clenches their fists as they bend both elbows and bring them forward to cross them in front of their chest. Pulling them back, them open their hand and launch a continuous stream of small Ki Waves.
Split-Form – Focusing for a moment, the user splits himself into multiple copies with power divisible equal to the number of clones.
Level 3 Ki Techniques
Level 3 Ki techniques initially require time to charge, advanced hand signals, yelling the name of the attack in order to concentrate or some extreme focus. As fighters get better with these techniques though, the requirements are not always needed to be met. A few examples are:
Kamehameha – The fighter starts with their hands extending out, one point upwards and the other pointing down. Then they move the arms, lowering the one pointing upwards and raising the one pointing downwards. Then the fighter, pulls the arms into their their side, cupping their hands and concentrating their Ki into them. Once the technique is fully charged, the hands are brought forward at chest level and the attack unleashed. Typically users call out the name of this move as they use it, "Ka-me-ha-me-ha!"
Galick Gun – Curling their fingers a fighter places their hands together, with their body slightly twisted, at chest level. The palm of one hand is on the back of the other and Ki is concentrated. Once enough is gathered, the user throws their hands forward and a powerful Ki Wave is fired. The name may be called out right before the hands are thrust forward.
Special Beam Cannon – Bending the arm, the fighter touches the index and middle finger to their forehead. When fully charged, they point at their enemy and release a powerful corkscrew like wave of energy at their enemy.
Level 4 Ki Techniques
These are ridiculously powerful techniques that always require time to charge for them to work properly. A couple examples:
Destructo Disc – A fairly inaccurate attack made of a razor sharp disc, it is created by placing one arm straight into the air with the user's hand perpendicular to their arm. Once charged, which always takes a while, the user throws the disc at their enemy. It can cut through nearly anything.
Final Flash – The user puts their arms straight out from their body, with their fingers spread and begin to gather their Ki. Once the energy has been gathered, they throw their arms forward. With their hands touching and fingers curled, the user usually yells the name and lets loose the Ki Wave.
Genki Dama – Sticking their arms up, with hands bent away from the body, the fighter calls out with their mind to all living things in an area and begs them to donate some of their Ki to the attack. It takes a tremendous amount of energy and time to complete. Once completed the user throws their arms down toward their opponent and the massive ball of Ki begins to move. It can be interrupted and broken. Only hurts those with evil in their hearts.
A list of guidelines for those interested in the mystical arts.
While the Dragon Clan account for nearly all practitioners of the mystical arts, some other races are capable of learning them like humans. There are three different schools of the mystic arts left in the universe; Blessings, Curses and Sensations. Each of these three schools have five different focuses. Mystics begin in one school and may choose any of the focuses available, each focus counts as a technique.
Blessings
Blessings are beneficial techniques that the caster can place upon another but requires a greater knowledge to cast upon themselves.
Boost – Casting Boost, allows the target to temporarily increase the limits of their power, up to that character's Max Power Level.
Healing – The caster instills calls upon the power of the universe to heal the target of this spell.
Magic Materialization – Through mystical means alone, the caster creates something out of nothing.
Mystic – Permanently increase a user's Base Power Level up to their Max Power Level, this can only be used on a character once in their lifetime.
Release – This focus is about unsealing or reversing harmful magical effects on a target.
Curses
Curses are lesser used among the Dragon Clan, as they are offensive, but they are sometimes still practiced, particularly by those of the Demon Clan.
Confusion – A sort of hex that clouds the target's mind, making it harder for them to concentrate on their tasks at hand. Powerful enough casters can cause so much confusion within a target that they go mad.
Ki Absorption – Absorbing the Ki of another living being, whether the excess Ki of an aura or the Ki of an attack, the caster can slowly weaken an opponent while slowly empowering themselves. The power up from this ability is temporary and may destroy a user if their body is not trained to handle it.
Life Drain – The darkest of the curses, the user literally drains the life from their target.
Magic Dematerialization – The opposite of Magic Materialization, this allows the caster to break down something through mystical means, can not be used on organic things.
Sealing – A caster may attempt to seal an enemy or opponent away in object, but the object and the spell must be powerful enough to contain the target.
Sensations
Sensations is a school that focuses on the caster and enhancing the caster's mind.
Divination – A caster may catch a glimpse of the future or a far off place, but this technique often requires an item to aid them.
Hypnosis – Subtly the caster suggests actions to the user, weaker minds are more easily controlled.
Telekinesis – Reaching out with their minds, the caster can affect things in the world around them without physically touching them.
Telepathy – The user expands their mind to reach out and touch another mind, allowing them to communicate without words.
Spatial Shifting – A caster may teleport themselves within a limited distance.
While practitioner's of magic are not required to train their bodies for all of their techniques though some do require a trained body to be truly effective. Instead, users of the mystical arts, are broken up into five levels; novices, adepts, masters, elders and geniuses. All save the last of the five are attainable through training and practice alone, but genius level is something one must be born into. The genius level is believed to be extinct.
Novices are those who have little control over the magics they command, most are only able to do the very basics of their focuses.
Adepts understand the magics they command and look to expand their knowledge into focuses beyond the ones their initial school.
Masters are powerful mystics that have complete command of the school they started their training in, giving them a basic understanding of all magic.
Elders are those that have trained and practiced magic for so long that they are masters of more than one school.
Geniuses are born with an innate understanding of magic, it speaks to them in ways that it will not to others. These rare beings are able to achieve feats beyond even the most powerful of Elder mystics.
A list of items, their descriptions and general/average prices, to be used as a guideline.
Weapons
Since the discovery of the encapsulation of energy, weapons have become much more prevalent. Blades that can fire off Ki Blasts or Ki Waves, shields held that can unleash the transformation. Some still choose to use only their bodies as a weapon, keeping their capsules on them or in their armor. Weapons are not considered standard issue to the Saiyan ranks, though many choose to specially request one or two.
(2000 Zeni)Melee Weapon with a Level 2 Technique – These swords, axes or whatever, contain a capsule filled with energy from a specific technique. A fighter may either use the technique contained inside or instill it with his own Ki to make the technique even stronger. Doing the first will, unleash the entire technique and the weapon will need to be reloaded, but doing the latter will allow the fighter to fire off a portion of the technique, allowing for up to five uses.
(3500 Zeni)Melee Weapon with a level 3 Technique – Same as above but contains a much stronger technique, even fueling the technique further with their own Ki, a fighter can only get a max of three uses from it before needing to reload.
(5000 Zeni)Melee Weapon with a level 4 Technique – Due to the danger associated with these techniques, they are not just given out to anyone. They are also always only single use.
Armor
Armor is commonplace in the Arcosian Empire and the Saiyan ranks, though the style and durability can vary greatly. Typically the ranks of both style their own armor to be unique. The under layer hugs the body and is a strong weighted cloth. The outer piece is stronger and more durable.
(2500 Zeni)Under Layer(300 lbs) – The weight is evenly distributed all throughout the cloth, and is designed to keep the body training even while being fairly idle. It does not restrict movement and easily withstand any level 1 techniques and fair well through multiple level 2 techniques.
(3000 Zeni)Outer Layer – The outer layer is thick and durable, being much more restrictive than the Under Layer it is mostly used to protect vital organs in the torso. It can easily withstand a lot of damage from level two techniques and fair well through multiple level 3 techniques.
Other Items
A great number of other items are of use to the various races, such as scouters, spaceships, training pods and weighted clothing.
Miscellaneous Items
(8000 Zeni)Scouters – These devices are designed to read power levels, they fit over one eye and act as a sort of heads up display. The basic model can read power levels up to 20,000. These are standard issue for Saiyans.
(1500 Zeni)Enhanced Scouters – These models can read power levels up to 50,000.
Ownable Space – Arcose
Outside of the mountains, there is only the spaceport and coliseum. The space inside each of the mountains is governed entirely by the Clanlords that own them.
(400 Zeni/Month)Coliseum Room – Sponsors may rent a room from the Lord of Arcose to put up their Mixed Bloods.
Ownable Space – Earth
(4000 Zeni)Condominium Apartment – This slightly larger than a studio apartment space has everything the average human needs to live in comfort.
(10,000 Zeni)Small Home – Made for the average human family, it could comfortably fit about four people.
(18,000 Zeni)Large Home – Designed to let a human family of nearly any conceivable size live without worry.
(25,000 Zeni)Manor – Essentially a small mansion, custom designed.
(15,000 Zeni)Small Business – A small business, which are fairly rare these days, selling something at a little stand or offering a service from a little shop. Can generate 1000/Zeni a month.
(35,000 Zeni)Medium Business – Smaller than a large business but larger than a small business, you have a decent sized office or storefront, with a few employees. Can generate 2500/Zeni a month.
(60,000 Zeni)Large Business – You or your family have built up from a tiny little space to a large storefront or office. This business of yours has a name, one that some people actually know. It has quite a few employees, most businesses never even reach this level as nearly everything one needs are mass produced by Capsule Corp or Royal Robotics. Can generate 4000/Zeni a month.
Ownable Space – New Namek
No one really buys or sells space on New Namek, it is sort of just taken from others or lays unclaimed.
Training Equipment
For the fighters amongst the Namekians and Saiyans, pretty much all their equipment is provided for them and anything not standard issue can be specially requested. For those looking to have their own facilities and equipment here are some.
(6500 Zeni)Gym Facility – Considered a very odd luxury item, it has all the basics one would need to train, in a small space. Training here will allow for steady gains, up to around 150 PL.
(16,000 Zeni)Hologram and Robotics Room – Using holograms and robots, fighters can train hard against just about anything they want, allowing one to see significant progress up to around 300 PL.
(40,000 Zeni)Gravity Room – Artificially creates a higher gravity within a small area, allowing one to make significant gains up to around 1200 PL. These rooms only offer up to five times gravity.
(60,000 Zeni)Holograv Room – By combining the Gravity Room with the Hologram and Robotics Room, fighters can steadily increase their power up to around 3000 PL. The gravity in these rooms can be further increased to ten times gravity.
Weighted Clothing is commonplace among weaker fighters. Young Saiyans often wear it until the receive their armor.
(300/ Zeni)Weighted Clothing(25 lbs) – For 5 PL – 20 PL, increases the effects of training by fifty percent.
(500/Zeni)Weighted Clothing(50 lbs) – For 20 PL – 40 PL, increases the effects of training by fifty percent.
(800/Zeni)Weighted Clothing(100 lbs) – For 40 PL – 70 PL, increases the effects of training by fifty percent.
(1200/Zeni)Weighted Clothing(200 lbs) – For 70 PL – 100 PL, increases the effects of training by fifty percent.

I saved this for last, the transformations!
Super Transformations
Super Saiyan – This transformation multiplies a user's Base Power Level by fifty, greatly increasing their power. In addition, the user's hair stands up and turns a golden yellow color, as does their aura. There is a slight increase in muscle mass and the Saiyan's eyes turn a greenish-blue. While transformed, a Saiyan becomes more aggressive and impulsive, regardless of their previous personality. A Saiyan that uses a capsule to achieve this form, before they have sufficiently trained their body will be overcome by the power and essentially burn up from the inside. Capsule based transformations last no more than a half hour and greatly tire the user.
Super Saiyan 2 – As the name would imply, this form doubles the power of the first. The user's hair may change slightly but the real sign is the sparks of lightning like energy that appear in their aura. The aggressiveness and impulsiveness of the fighter are further increased in this form. Only a few have been given leave to use this transformation, not only due to the danger to the fighter but to the danger he may pose to others if not ready to handle the personality tweaks. Capsule based transformations last no longer than twenty minutes and greatly tire the user.
Super Human – Mostly a rumor and a theory, Capsule Corp did run some tests trying to create a Super Human. Of those tested, a few achieved a transformation, their hair any eyes turning a silver color but their aura turning the golden yellow of a Super Saiyan. Unfortunately, for those tested, their bodies were unable to handle the power and they subsequently exploded. Due to the trouble, Capsule Corp abandoned the research. It is not known how much a user's power was increased, how long the transformation could last or how tired a user that survived would be after the transformation wore off.
Super Namekian – Much like the Super Human transformation, this one is only theory, rumor and speculation, even more so since it was never tested.
Legendary Super Saiyan – Used by the prototype created in Capsule Corp's Project Broly, it multiplies a user's Base Power Level by 1000. One who uses this transformation seems to explode out of their body into a much larger and more muscular version, that does not seem to lack speed. They exhibit a golden green aura rather than a golden yellow aura. Their pupils and irises disappear. This transformation lasts no longer than fifteen minutes and the only known user is entirely exhausted.
Last time on Dragonball: Final Hour...
EARLY HISTORY
With the Earth at peace again, the Saiyans could seemingly calm down but Vegeta grew vigilant, ensuring that his lineage had the fortitude to protect their new home. He trained Trunks in military strategies, while Bulma taught him science. When Trunks inherited Capsule Corp, he began to implement the plan for the Earth Defense Force. The Saiyan lineage was carefully conserved and the race grew. Trunk's greatest advancement toward defending Earth was the encapsulation of energy, including transformation energy, like that used to go Super Saiyan. Unlike, the mass produced capsules used for matter, the energy capsules were not given freely to the world.
Meanwhile the Emperor Pilaf finds the Dragon Balls and wishes for immortality. His second life is then spent building a business. In his travels, Pilaf discovered one of the Red Ribbon bases. Using some of the old technology their, the emperor was able to locate more. Over time, he was able to gather much of Dr. Gero's research. He would eventually meet a shrewd business partner that helped him get started. With the man's help, he hired scientists to sift through the late Gero's work. The final result was Royal Robotics, Emperor Pilaf taking the former army's logo as his own in a twisted joke. The corporation focused on creating in home robotics and companion androids.
A tiny sect of the Red Ribbon Army carried on the name, mostly as a gang. Until they were met by a fanatic that had extensively studied the original Red Ribbon Army. The man simply calling himself Red Leader, systematically took over the organized crime of Earth. Red Leader overthrew mob bosses and small town gang leaders alike on his own, the Red Ribbon Army ever following close behind. The goal of this army was no longer to find the Dragon Balls, content to rule from the shadows of the criminal underworld.
Both Capsule Corp and Royal Robotics become closely entangled with Earth's politics, getting their own advisers to the King of Earth. All the while, the growing Red Ribbon Army buy off more and more of the government, unable to buy off the King of Earth himself.
The Namekian race cultivated New Namek, planting many food crops that would eventually be exported to Earth. Set into their warrior and dragon clan system, the race lived peacefully for many years. Eventually, some of the warriors grew restless, their will to protect their home causing them to leave it and search out danger. Endorsed by Capsule Corp, the Namekians became known as Guardians, taking up the name that Kami and Dende held for protecting Earth. Piccolo would eventually join these Guardians. New Namek's trade deal with Earth, kept it safe and cozy for many years.
THE GALACTIC WAR
The Arcosian Empire which was greatly influenced by the Planet Trade Organization under the command of Frieza, lost much of its power after the death of Frieza. While the race is inherently strong by anyone's standards, Frieza's family in particular was always a cut above the rest. With the Planet Trade Organization scattered and falling apart, the Arcosian Empire had to resort to utilizing its own army to bring the North Galaxy back under its control.
By the time that the real Galactic War broke out, Earth and Namek, had already created a united front, with the planets being protected by technologies from both Royal Robotics and Capsule Corp. A rebuilt Arcosian Empire made up of thousands of beings faced off against the Earth Defense Force and The Guardians. Both planets were protected by a shield that kept everything out once activated.
Unable to breach the shields, facing over three hundred Super Saiyans and a hundred Namekian warriors, the Arcosians were having a tough time. That is until they brought forth their allies, the Makaioshin from the Demon Realm. Stronger than most of the Arcosians, the Makaioshins started to win the war for the Arcosians. At this point, Majin Buu joined the fray and split himself into many different beings, creating a whole new race. With the added help of the Majins, the Arcosian Empire was beaten back and forced to retreat.
RISE OF THE DEMON CLAN
Months later once the shields were lowered around Namek, some of the Makaioshin landed and proceeded to live on New Namek. Guardians were placed over them, carefully keeping watch. Due to the nature of the Makioshin, they began to warp the Gaurdians keeping watch. The Namekians mutated, gaining new abilities and features, their personalities becoming twisted and dark. As these Guardians fell under the influence of the Makaioshins, more were sent to check out the situation. These Guardians gave into their dark sides when their former comrades sank their fangs in. Soon an entire clan rose up and attacked the rest of the Namekians, attempting to turn the whole race into slaves to the Makaioshin.
Piccolo arrived, the strongest member of his race, but he would succumb to the many bites of the tainted ones. Turned into the Demon King Piccolo once again, the Namekian went on to ravage his planet. What Namekians survived the initial devastation flocked to the teleporter linked to Earth. The initial flood was accepted but as soon as the first of the mutants appeared, the link between Earth and New Namek was cut.
New Namek was then officially turned over to the Arcosian Empire, what few untainted Namekians remained hid deep underground. Earth and its moon was left as the only unclaimed territory in the North Galaxy. Entirely cut off from the rest of the galaxy by the shields, Earth began focusing its efforts on colonizing the moon. The Arcosian Empire would eventually accept a treaty with Earth, in which the King Of Earth and the Arcosian Emperor meet every five years to discuss the ever changing terms. Such a meeting is held with a tournament, showcasing the Galaxy's greatest warriors.
While the last three meetings and tournaments have went well, the tensions between the quickly crowding races of Earth and the Arcosian Empire are growing ever more taught. The Fourth Galactic Tournament is fast approaching. How much longer until it all snaps? Will Earth unleash its forces upon the Arcosian Empire? Would they even matter anymore? Find out....on the next episode of Dragonball: Final Hours!

A list of races, feel free to try and put forth your own or request a different one, just remember that pretty much everything aside from Earth is under the Arcosian Empire.
Androids
Androids can be as varied as the humans that ordered them, as they are custom designed for each person. Still each android is humanoid in form. Nearly all of the androids were created by Royal Robotics and carry their logo. There are two very distinct models though, evidenced by size. The home model is roughly the size of a human, while the industrial model is more often ten foot or taller. As an artificially created race, the androids have no architecture, technology or culture of their own. Most of the race has a rudimentary instruction and task based AI, but a few have either gained or been created with a more sentient AI. Such androids, are more often someone's personal companion android or a random inventor's attempt. Androids are fairly tough machines and those designed by Royal Robotics come with two basic abilities. The first is an analytical ability called Energy Reading, which allows the android to deduce a being's power level. The second ability is a self-destruct mechanism, which only a handful of people know about.
Home Planet: Earth
Average Base PL: 100
Average Life Span: 15 Years
Estimated Population: >100,000
Abilities: Energy Reading, Self Destruct
Energy Reading – Nearly every android can inherently read the power levels of those around them, much like having a built in Scouter.
Self Destruct – Most androids are unaware of this feature that is built into every Royal Robotics model. It allows the android to unleash all of their energy at once, causing a massive explosion that very few could survive.
Arcosians
Inherently the strongest race in the mortal realm, the Arcosians are naturally ruthless and cold. Living without mercy, they are petty and spoiled, yet extremely disciplined. Most of this race are born at their power levels, never training to fight, only gaining that experience from actual combat. The power they are born with is usually too much for them and their early days are used to train them to transform, containing their power. There species is few in number, counting on slaves a minions to do their bidding. Extremely resilient, this race can put themselves into a sort of coma that does not require them to eat, drink or breathe.
Home Planet: Arcose
Average Base PL: 25,000
Average Life Span: 300 Years
Estimated Population: ~100
Ability: Nightmare Transformation, Stasis
Nightmare Transformation – When an Arcosian is born, they are leaps and bounds stronger than the rest of the universe. Their very power would make nearly everyone so terrified that they cannot think. In an effort to circumvent this, the Arcosians have the ability to hide their true power in various forms. Most Arcosians have three forms, a smaller one used for delegation purposes, a larger one for combat purposes and then a true form that unleashes their full power.
Stasis – The Arcosians are a strong race that have survived much, including the rampage of Majin Buu, millions of years ago. The ability to put themselves into a protective coma is what has kept their species alive through many cataclysmic events. While in this stasis, their body effectively shuts down to the point that they would be considered clinically dead. Due to this, they need no oxygen, no food nor water and can survive in this state for all eternity if need be.
Humans
Humans in the Dragonball universe are a bit sturdier than real humans but are essentially frail creatures in comparison to the rest of the races. They share all of our characteristics and are a varied species. Hair and eye colors can be outlandish for the real world. Some humans in this world seem to be missing features, such as a nose, or carry additional, like a third eye. I am also considering the anthromorphic races on Dragonball's Earth under human. Humans as a whole are social creatures, most live in one of several large cities. Nearly all of the rest that live outside the cities, still live in small towns. There are a few that choose entirely to hermit themselves away. Work for the humans is mostly done by the android population in the cities, though the small towns and hermits enjoy the older lifestyle. Most of human architecture and design seems to be circular or spherical. Their cars are now automated, their ships can fly across the universe and giant teleporters to move things instantaneously. Most of the human race is really weak, but the race is capable of reaching the lower heights of power. Still few humans ever break above a power level of one hundred. In response to their physically weak nature, the humans have created a number of devices to assist them in battle, namely the race of androids. Still there are a few that practice both the martial and the mystical arts.
Home Planet: Earth

Average Life Span: 80 Years
Estimated Population: >1,000,000,000
Abilities: None
Majins
As the youngest of the races in the Dragonball universe, not a lot is known about this species. They come in a wide variety of colors and are able to change their humanoid shaped body in various ways. Devoid of ears, nose and hair, Majins have antennae on their head that often resemble horns or hair. Like the Namekians, the Majin race can regenerate but it does not require the head, as long as there is any significant portion of the being left. Created for the sole purpose of winning the war, they now find themselves lost without a reason to exist. Mischievous in their own way, they are often innocent and childish.
Home Planet: Earth
Average Base PL: 3,000
Average Life Span: N/A
Estimated Population: 50
Ability: Body Manipulation, Regeneration
Body Manipulation – The Majins have the ability to manipulate their bodies. What each Majin can do seems to differ, but some have been seen to stretch their limbs like Namekians. Others can inflate themselves to make enlarge their body. Some seem to be able to turn themselves into a liquid state. A few have demonstrated the ability to control parts of themselves that have been detached. Each Majin can only have one of these abilities.
Regenerate – All Majins have the ability to regenerate as long as a significant portion of the Majin is intact, like a hand, foot, head, forearm, etc. This ability requires a great deal of concentration, and the required time to complete it is dependent on how much of the body has been destroyed. Due to such restrictions, this ability is very difficult to use in the midst of battle.
Makaioshin
A powerful race of evil deities that call the Demon Realm home, a plane that exists below the Mortal Realm. They can come in all shapes, sizes, colors and forms but the strongest are often humanoid with red colored skin, horns and pointed ears. Each of them can have very unique abilities. As a species they have the ability to influence the hearts of mortals, drawing out the evil in them.
Home Planet: Demon Realm, New Namek
Average Base PL: 40,000
Average Life Span: Immortal
Estimated Population: 10
Abilities: Negative Manipulation, Unique Ability
Negative Manipulation – This ability allows a Makaioshin to enhance the darkness already inside a mortal's heart. It starts as a whisper in the mind of the target, telling them to act upon their evil desires. The whisper quickly grows to a deafening scream that gets stronger the closer the Makaioshin is to their target. To some degree, this ability is always active, which can make it hard for the Makaioshin to interact with others.
Unique Ability – Each Makaioshin carries a unique ability, which is determined by their inherent source of evil. Those sources are Bloodlust, Avarice, Lust, Deceit, Negativity, Vulgarity, Indolence, Envy, Hatred and Pride.
Namekians
These green beings seem to have properties similar to plants and slugs. Hairless, their heads are adorned with antennae and their ears are pointed. Resistant to cold, thanks to a thick and durable skin, Namekians need only water and air for sustenance. Their senses are very acute, particularly their hearing. Inherently this species is peaceful, with Namekians following either the Warrior or the Dragon Clan. One route trains the body for combat, the other practices the more mystical arts. Some Namekians succumb to the darkness and become part of the Demon Clan, which often have fighting properties of both clans. They are a relatively strong people, able to regenerate as long as their head is intact. Namekians can extend their limbs out.
Home Planet: New Namek, Earth
Average Base PL: 500
Average Life Span: 500 Years
Estimated Population: ~400
Abilities: Limb Extension, Regenerate
Limb Extension – Namekians have the ability to extend their limbs long distances, well over a hundred feet. This allows them to grab enemies at a distance or attack in ways their opponents may not see coming.
Regenerate – All Namekians have the ability to regenerate as long as their heads are still intact. This ability requires a great deal of concentration, and the required time to complete it is dependent on how much of the body has been destroyed. Due to such restrictions, this ability is very difficult to use in the midst of battle.
Saiyans
Traditionally, all Saiyans have black hair and eyes, but mingling with the humans has expanded the colors that can be expressed. To be recognized as a Saiyan one must be at least 1/64, which is evidenced from birth by a prehensile monkey tail. They are humanoid in form and color, but nearly all Saiyans have a muscular build. Saiyans are a stubborn and arrogant but noble race, that lives almost entirely within the headquarters of Capsule Corp. There is no technology nor architecture attributed to the Saiyan race, as nearly all of them spend their time raising the family and training. All of their needs are provided by Capsule Corp, in return for the Saiyan's promise to protect Earth. The Saiyan race is a strong one, naturally gifted with a genetic trait called Zenkai. This trait allows them to greatly increase their power level after a brush with death, though the wounds cannot be self-inflicted. Another ability of the Saiyan race is to transform on a full moon, into a giant monkey called an Oozaru. The only problem with Oozaru is that it can take years for a Saiyan to learn to control themselves while transformed. Due to that reason, many Saiyans choose to have their tail cut off.
Home Planet: Earth
Average Base PL: 200
Average Life Span: 100 Years.
Estimated Population: ~300
Abilities: Oozaru, Zenkai
Oozaru – This ability is unique to Saiyans that have kept their tail. It allows them to transform on a full moon into a giant ape, which multiplies their power by ten. Most Saiyans have their tail cut off at a young age because the transformation is so hard to control. Those that retain their tail have spent years training to control the great ape form and often learn the Power Ball technique.
Zenkai – When a Saiyan is brought to near death from a battle, their power greatly increases in an effort to stop the Saiyan from reaching that state again. Once recovered the Saiyan finds that their power has increased by a full ten percent.
Androids can be as varied as the humans that ordered them, as they are custom designed for each person. Still each android is humanoid in form. Nearly all of the androids were created by Royal Robotics and carry their logo. There are two very distinct models though, evidenced by size.

The homeworlds.
Arcose
Arcose World History
Their homeworld of the Arcosians is an awful nearly barren ball of ice and rock, with an enormous gravity and thin atmosphere that most races could not survive. While the gravity has always been so extreme, the temperature and atmosphere was not. Arcose used to be a large gaseous world with a small rocky center that was periodically ravished by a terrible storm every few hundred thousand years. The storm would wipe out nearly all life. Eventually a single celled organism developed the ability to put itself into stasis to survive the storm. Life began to flourish again, even through the storm.
Then the star at the center of Arcose began to die, getting very large and hot. It burned off most of the atmosphere and unleashed an unimaginable amount of energy that killed almost everything once again. The organisms that survived were vastly changed and aggressive. Slowly the system grew cold and what carbon dioxide remained tuned to dry ice, creating the outer layer around the rocky mantle. When the first Arcosians finally became aware of themselves, they noticed a difference in colors on certain shiny parts of their bodies. They divided themselves into like color and began to fight others of different colors.
The Arcosians would dig into four large mountains to create the homes for these different clans. War continued to be waged between the clans, but the Blue clan received the worst of it. They controlled the largest mountain, something the other clans could not forgive. Another race mistakenly landed on this mountain, only to have their spaceship stolen from them. The head of the Blue Clan proceeded to subjugate the other three clans, the Yellow, Green and Red, to his will and crowned himself the Lord of Arcose. The Blue Clan became royalty, with the other clans swearing unwavering loyalty to their Lord but not to the other Clans.
Knowing the chaos that could be returned to Arcose, its Lord made a single law that all disputes must be settled through duels. To protect the mountains from such conflict, a coliseum was built. At some point in time one of the Lord's children with a Red clan woman was birthed with a mutation that made him ridiculously powerful at birth. This child would challenge his father's power and in turn be given leave to create the Planet Trade Organization(PTO), controlling the Arcosian Empire outside of Arcose. A great space port was built to serve as both the headquarters of the PTO and the center of imports.
One day, from one of the deep icy crags, a ten foot beast appeared. Covered in chitinous armor, the creature had long and lanky looking arms with huge hands, upon which it walked. The spaces in the armor showed a thick fur beneath. It was in search of food but was quickly finding the atmosphere to thin. Chancing upon the beast, an Arcosian was able to provide the creature with an oddity it had encountered, a breathing mask. After covering the large ape-ish face, this beast then followed the Arcosian around as a dutiful pet-slave.
Intrigued by the beast, the Arcosians would delve beneath the surface of Arcose to find more of the beasts to be enslaved. Living in a subterranean pocket closer to the molten core the beasts thrived in a slightly warmer environment. Herbivorous, these would servants fed off large barky vegetation that was quickly dying out. Bringing more of the masks to their homeworld, the Arcosians began to put the Servants to work.
Society & Culture
Arcosians come in one of two “bloods', “Pure” which can be seen from one of the four primary colors, or “Mixed Bloods” that can be just about any color. All Arcosians are born into a sort of larval state that slowly grows larger until the Arcosian bursts out from it in its True Form. Once they have left their larval form, they are not allowed to leave their home until they have mastered their Diplomatic Form. With that under control, the Arcosian may venture out into the rest of their mountain. A Mixed Blood is forbidden from leaving their respective mountain, though there have been some exceptions, but one who is Pure may after they complete their Combat Form.
Upon acquiring an acceptable Combat Form transformation, an Arcosian is given a test to hunt out an Ice Behemoth and acquire the creature's heart as proof. This proof marks a Pureblood as an adult in the Arcosian society. Adult Purebloods take one of two paths, that of the delegates or that of the warrior. A delegate will spend their life trying to gain favor from the Lord of Arcose or from their Clanlord through the court by showing promise. On the other hand the warrior will prove their abilities in the Coliseum, possibly winning themselves and their clan favor.
As full fledged adults the Pureblood may go where they please on their planets, but females are not permitted to leave the planet, as they tend to be fewer in number than males of the species. Mixed Blood adults spend most of their time in the second to lowest level of their mountains, the lowest reserved for the Servants. These second class citizens are only allowed to leave this place if they have shown exceptional promise in combat, which then they may be sponsored by a Pureblood to enter the Coliseum as a gladiator. Gladiators live in the Coliseum, providing sport for the Arcosians whenever other warriors are not battling and no duels are occurring.
Older Arcosians that have proved their usefulness in combat tend to find themselves in the military. Those older and proven capable delegates find that they are given control of various sectors throughout the universe. Some Purebloods care for neither path and are content with their station, leading a life of luxury.
Demon Realm
Demon Realm History
The Demon Realm is a nigh inhospitable place full of danger and constant conflict. It is linked to the rest of the universe via various Demon Gates. Naturally inhabited by many lower and weaker demons, it is also home to the Makaio and Makaioshin. Split into ten different provinces, each of which are ruled by a particularly powerful Makaio and owned by a Makaioshin. The actual realm was under the charge of the strongest Makaio at any particular time, who was crowned the Demon King.
That is until a Demon Gate fell into the hands of the Arcosian Empire and they had it transported to Arcose. Once the gate was there, the Arcosians invaded the Demon Realm and laid waste to all of inhabitants save for the Makaioshin who lived within their city in the clouds. From high above the Makaioshin watched with amusement as province after province fell to the invaders. When all of the Demon Realm was conquered and Lord Shiver declared himself Lord over the Demon Realm as well, they appeared.
With bolts of lightning, the crashing of thunder and trembling of the ground beneath the Arcosian's feet, the Makaioshin made themselves known. The leader of the Arcosians declared his providence and dominion over the realm. So amused were the gods of the Demon Realm, that they simply shrugged and let it be true. When they heard of the changes in the universe and the trouble the Arcosians were having with the planet called Eath, the Makaioshin were intrigued.
Offering their help, once again out of the idea of how amusing it could be, the true masters of the Demon Realm sealed an alliance with the Arcosian Empire. Whether Lord Shiver knew it or not, he was Lord of the Demon Realm in name only and the Arcosians he left behind had plenty of trouble from the local rabble after he left with the Makaioshin. Even though the inhabitants are no challenge for the mortal invaders, they is no end to the resistance they face.
Society & Culture
The lesser demons that do not serve a Makaio tend to hide away from any other inhabitants of the Demon Realm, content to hermit nearly all their lives away. Many Makaio spend their entire lives trying to attain one thing, the crown of the King of the Demon Realm. A few aspire to other things, such as science or various forms of magic, but they are rare. Now that the crown has fallen into the hands of the Arcosians, they have focused their attacks on these invaders.
Makaioshin live high above the provinces on a floating circle made of dark clouds, with a sun-like source of light in the center. This special place is home only to the Makaioshin and the privileged few they choose as their servants. Spending their time watching the conflict of the realm within the glowing center, the gods of the Demon Realm rarely interfered. The dark clouds listen to their every thought, forming seats and tables whenever needed, as it floats randomly over the provinces.
Since coming to the Mortal Realm, the Makaioshin have taken up residence on New Namek. Typically, two are always at the side of the Demon King Piccolo, while the locations of the others are unknown. It is rumored that they either return home or spend are out searching for more minions to enslave with their evil.
Earth
Society & Culture
The Human race for the most part remains ignorant, lazy and unmotivated, believing wholeheartedly that they are safe behind the barrier. Even if the barrier were to be destroyed, the Saiyans, Namekians, Majins and Androids could surely protect them. Still there is a small surge in those that show interest in devoting themselves to martial arts or science, since the end of the war. These humans spends their days either determinedly training or passionately studying.
Since the arrival of the Namekians, Capsule Corp and Royal Robotics are working together to create a terraforming machine in the hopes of terraforming the moon. With this machine, a few scientists and a few androids, the Namekians are relocated to the smaller celestial body. Their goal, to try and be able to replace the supply of food that was lost when Earth was cut off from New Namek.
Majins returned to Earth after the war and are entirely without purpose. Lost and confused, but inheriting enough knowledge to speak and fight, the race now finds itself scattered. Without a real moral compass, many are getting themselves into trouble and seem to be finding that their innocently mischievous nature is a bit of a burden. A few have found they like being more mischievous, even landing spots in the Red Ribbon Gang.
The Androids continue on with all of their normal duties, serving their human masters without complaint. Of the few that have gained true artificial intelligence, most are content to study such questions as the meaning of life and whether they are actually alive or not. Some Androids have gone missing and are likely being re-purposed by the Red Ribbon Gang
Saiyans have not changed in the slightest, content to train every day using the facilities provided by Capsule Corp. From an early age, some as early as four or five, these people begin training. They train their bodies to get stronger, faster and sturdier. They train their minds, either to handle the Oozaru form or to better aid themselves in battle. Eventually, once they become strong enough, they begin training to use the transformation capsules that allow them to achieve Super Saiyan and beyond.
New Namek
Society & Culture
What was once a peaceful planet full of contented farming has fallen into disarray. The crops have withered and most of the buildings have been destroyed. Crazed members of the Demon Clan scurry about looking for something to sink their fangs into. These once happy people now feed on each other, tearing limb from limb. Then they watch the limbs grow back, only to tear them off again, while howling in laughter so inhuman.
The only members of this Clan that do not run about with their minds overtaken entirely by madness are those that were bitten by the Demon King Piccolo. The new King of New Namek sits almost like a statue upon a dilapidated throne in the battered ruins of the Elder's home, commanding his minions without a single spoken word. Such creatures are loyal to a fault, secretly following his every order as they try to reign in this curse. Behind the king are always two Makaioshin that seem to be ever whispering little commands of their own, though the two are not always the same.
A list of guidelines for techniques and some examples.
Techniques
Techniques come in one of four types; Physical, Ki, Combination and Mystical. Physical techniques are your normal every day punches, kicks, grapples and other moves that one could do in real life. Ki techniques use some of the user's life force to project or throw an attack made of energy, the most basic of these is the Ki Blast. Combination techniques combine both the physical and Ki together to create powerful attacks. The final, the Mystical is the magical arts, it uses the energy outside the body in many powerful but dangerous ways.
A fighter may know an unlimited number of physical techniques and needs no way to keep track of them, they can also be made up on the spot. Ki techniques however must be learned or created, usually requiring a vast amount of time to do so. They come in four levels.
Level 1 Ki Techniques
All fighters are capable of using Level 1 Ki Techniques. These are the very basics, essentially freebies that don't need to be put down on the character sheet. They are:
Ki Blast – The most basic of Ki techniques, the user channels their Ki into a ball and fires it or throws it at their enemy. The most famous Ki Blast is the Spirit Bomb.
Ki Wave – The next most basic technique, the user unleashes a continuous stream of Ki energy at their opponent. The most famous Ki Wave is the Kamehameha
Ki Aura – Most often seen and used when a fighter powers up, concentrating the Ki inside their body. An aura can be used to attack or defend, as is the case with Ki Barriers.
Level 2 Ki Techniques
Level 2 Ki techniques are those that require no time to charge and very little concentration to pull off. Some examples include:
Solar Flare – Placing their hands in front of their face, with their fingers open and just outside their eyes, the user yells out the name of the attack and unleashes flash of Ki that blinds the user.
Ki Barrier – By solidifying their Ki Aura, a fighter can defend themselves with a barrier.
Dodonpa – The fighter points their finger at an enemy and lets loose a small thin beam meant to strike a precise spot on their opponent.
Renzoku Kikodan – The user clenches their fists as they bend both elbows and bring them forward to cross them in front of their chest. Pulling them back, them open their hand and launch a continuous stream of small Ki Waves.
Split-Form – Focusing for a moment, the user splits himself into multiple copies with power divisible equal to the number of clones.
Level 3 Ki Techniques
Level 3 Ki techniques initially require time to charge, advanced hand signals, yelling the name of the attack in order to concentrate or some extreme focus. As fighters get better with these techniques though, the requirements are not always needed to be met. A few examples are:
Kamehameha – The fighter starts with their hands extending out, one point upwards and the other pointing down. Then they move the arms, lowering the one pointing upwards and raising the one pointing downwards. Then the fighter, pulls the arms into their their side, cupping their hands and concentrating their Ki into them. Once the technique is fully charged, the hands are brought forward at chest level and the attack unleashed. Typically users call out the name of this move as they use it, "Ka-me-ha-me-ha!"
Galick Gun – Curling their fingers a fighter places their hands together, with their body slightly twisted, at chest level. The palm of one hand is on the back of the other and Ki is concentrated. Once enough is gathered, the user throws their hands forward and a powerful Ki Wave is fired. The name may be called out right before the hands are thrust forward.
Special Beam Cannon – Bending the arm, the fighter touches the index and middle finger to their forehead. When fully charged, they point at their enemy and release a powerful corkscrew like wave of energy at their enemy.
Level 4 Ki Techniques
These are ridiculously powerful techniques that always require time to charge for them to work properly. A couple examples:
Destructo Disc – A fairly inaccurate attack made of a razor sharp disc, it is created by placing one arm straight into the air with the user's hand perpendicular to their arm. Once charged, which always takes a while, the user throws the disc at their enemy. It can cut through nearly anything.
Final Flash – The user puts their arms straight out from their body, with their fingers spread and begin to gather their Ki. Once the energy has been gathered, they throw their arms forward. With their hands touching and fingers curled, the user usually yells the name and lets loose the Ki Wave.
Genki Dama – Sticking their arms up, with hands bent away from the body, the fighter calls out with their mind to all living things in an area and begs them to donate some of their Ki to the attack. It takes a tremendous amount of energy and time to complete. Once completed the user throws their arms down toward their opponent and the massive ball of Ki begins to move. It can be interrupted and broken. Only hurts those with evil in their hearts.
A list of guidelines for those interested in the mystical arts.
Mystical Techniques
While the Dragon Clan account for nearly all practitioners of the mystical arts, some other races are capable of learning them like humans. There are three different schools of the mystic arts left in the universe; Blessings, Curses and Sensations. Each of these three schools have five different focuses. Mystics begin in one school and may choose any of the focuses available, each focus counts as a technique.
Blessings
Blessings are beneficial techniques that the caster can place upon another but requires a greater knowledge to cast upon themselves.
Boost – Casting Boost, allows the target to temporarily increase the limits of their power, up to that character's Max Power Level.
Healing – The caster instills calls upon the power of the universe to heal the target of this spell.
Magic Materialization – Through mystical means alone, the caster creates something out of nothing.
Mystic – Permanently increase a user's Base Power Level up to their Max Power Level, this can only be used on a character once in their lifetime.
Release – This focus is about unsealing or reversing harmful magical effects on a target.
Curses
Curses are lesser used among the Dragon Clan, as they are offensive, but they are sometimes still practiced, particularly by those of the Demon Clan.
Confusion – A sort of hex that clouds the target's mind, making it harder for them to concentrate on their tasks at hand. Powerful enough casters can cause so much confusion within a target that they go mad.
Ki Absorption – Absorbing the Ki of another living being, whether the excess Ki of an aura or the Ki of an attack, the caster can slowly weaken an opponent while slowly empowering themselves. The power up from this ability is temporary and may destroy a user if their body is not trained to handle it.
Life Drain – The darkest of the curses, the user literally drains the life from their target.
Magic Dematerialization – The opposite of Magic Materialization, this allows the caster to break down something through mystical means, can not be used on organic things.
Sealing – A caster may attempt to seal an enemy or opponent away in object, but the object and the spell must be powerful enough to contain the target.
Sensations
Sensations is a school that focuses on the caster and enhancing the caster's mind.
Divination – A caster may catch a glimpse of the future or a far off place, but this technique often requires an item to aid them.
Hypnosis – Subtly the caster suggests actions to the user, weaker minds are more easily controlled.
Telekinesis – Reaching out with their minds, the caster can affect things in the world around them without physically touching them.
Telepathy – The user expands their mind to reach out and touch another mind, allowing them to communicate without words.
Spatial Shifting – A caster may teleport themselves within a limited distance.
While practitioner's of magic are not required to train their bodies for all of their techniques though some do require a trained body to be truly effective. Instead, users of the mystical arts, are broken up into five levels; novices, adepts, masters, elders and geniuses. All save the last of the five are attainable through training and practice alone, but genius level is something one must be born into. The genius level is believed to be extinct.
Novices are those who have little control over the magics they command, most are only able to do the very basics of their focuses.
Adepts understand the magics they command and look to expand their knowledge into focuses beyond the ones their initial school.
Masters are powerful mystics that have complete command of the school they started their training in, giving them a basic understanding of all magic.
Elders are those that have trained and practiced magic for so long that they are masters of more than one school.
Geniuses are born with an innate understanding of magic, it speaks to them in ways that it will not to others. These rare beings are able to achieve feats beyond even the most powerful of Elder mystics.
A list of items, their descriptions and general/average prices, to be used as a guideline.
Items
Weapons
Since the discovery of the encapsulation of energy, weapons have become much more prevalent. Blades that can fire off Ki Blasts or Ki Waves, shields held that can unleash the transformation. Some still choose to use only their bodies as a weapon, keeping their capsules on them or in their armor. Weapons are not considered standard issue to the Saiyan ranks, though many choose to specially request one or two.
(2000 Zeni)Melee Weapon with a Level 2 Technique – These swords, axes or whatever, contain a capsule filled with energy from a specific technique. A fighter may either use the technique contained inside or instill it with his own Ki to make the technique even stronger. Doing the first will, unleash the entire technique and the weapon will need to be reloaded, but doing the latter will allow the fighter to fire off a portion of the technique, allowing for up to five uses.
(3500 Zeni)Melee Weapon with a level 3 Technique – Same as above but contains a much stronger technique, even fueling the technique further with their own Ki, a fighter can only get a max of three uses from it before needing to reload.
(5000 Zeni)Melee Weapon with a level 4 Technique – Due to the danger associated with these techniques, they are not just given out to anyone. They are also always only single use.
Armor
Armor is commonplace in the Arcosian Empire and the Saiyan ranks, though the style and durability can vary greatly. Typically the ranks of both style their own armor to be unique. The under layer hugs the body and is a strong weighted cloth. The outer piece is stronger and more durable.
(2500 Zeni)Under Layer(300 lbs) – The weight is evenly distributed all throughout the cloth, and is designed to keep the body training even while being fairly idle. It does not restrict movement and easily withstand any level 1 techniques and fair well through multiple level 2 techniques.
(3000 Zeni)Outer Layer – The outer layer is thick and durable, being much more restrictive than the Under Layer it is mostly used to protect vital organs in the torso. It can easily withstand a lot of damage from level two techniques and fair well through multiple level 3 techniques.
Other Items
A great number of other items are of use to the various races, such as scouters, spaceships, training pods and weighted clothing.
Miscellaneous Items
(8000 Zeni)Scouters – These devices are designed to read power levels, they fit over one eye and act as a sort of heads up display. The basic model can read power levels up to 20,000. These are standard issue for Saiyans.
(1500 Zeni)Enhanced Scouters – These models can read power levels up to 50,000.
Ownable Space – Arcose
Outside of the mountains, there is only the spaceport and coliseum. The space inside each of the mountains is governed entirely by the Clanlords that own them.
(400 Zeni/Month)Coliseum Room – Sponsors may rent a room from the Lord of Arcose to put up their Mixed Bloods.
Ownable Space – Earth
(4000 Zeni)Condominium Apartment – This slightly larger than a studio apartment space has everything the average human needs to live in comfort.

(60,000 Zeni)Large Business – You or your family have built up from a tiny little space to a large storefront or office. This business of yours has a name, one that some people actually know. It has quite a few employees, most businesses never even reach this level as nearly everything one needs are mass produced by Capsule Corp or Royal Robotics. Can generate 4000/Zeni a month.
Ownable Space – New Namek
No one really buys or sells space on New Namek, it is sort of just taken from others or lays unclaimed.
Training Equipment
For the fighters amongst the Namekians and Saiyans, pretty much all their equipment is provided for them and anything not standard issue can be specially requested. For those looking to have their own facilities and equipment here are some.
(6500 Zeni)Gym Facility – Considered a very odd luxury item, it has all the basics one would need to train, in a small space. Training here will allow for steady gains, up to around 150 PL.
(16,000 Zeni)Hologram and Robotics Room – Using holograms and robots, fighters can train hard against just about anything they want, allowing one to see significant progress up to around 300 PL.
(40,000 Zeni)Gravity Room – Artificially creates a higher gravity within a small area, allowing one to make significant gains up to around 1200 PL. These rooms only offer up to five times gravity.
(60,000 Zeni)Holograv Room – By combining the Gravity Room with the Hologram and Robotics Room, fighters can steadily increase their power up to around 3000 PL. The gravity in these rooms can be further increased to ten times gravity.
Weighted Clothing is commonplace among weaker fighters. Young Saiyans often wear it until the receive their armor.
(300/ Zeni)Weighted Clothing(25 lbs) – For 5 PL – 20 PL, increases the effects of training by fifty percent.
(500/Zeni)Weighted Clothing(50 lbs) – For 20 PL – 40 PL, increases the effects of training by fifty percent.

(350,000 Zeni) Carrier Class Spaceship – Holding a crew around 100 total, these ships can carry smaller Fighter Class Spaceships.
I saved this for last, the transformations!
Transformations
Super Transformations
Super Saiyan – This transformation multiplies a user's Base Power Level by fifty, greatly increasing their power. In addition, the user's hair stands up and turns a golden yellow color, as does their aura. There is a slight increase in muscle mass and the Saiyan's eyes turn a greenish-blue. While transformed, a Saiyan becomes more aggressive and impulsive, regardless of their previous personality. A Saiyan that uses a capsule to achieve this form, before they have sufficiently trained their body will be overcome by the power and essentially burn up from the inside. Capsule based transformations last no more than a half hour and greatly tire the user.
Super Saiyan 2 – As the name would imply, this form doubles the power of the first. The user's hair may change slightly but the real sign is the sparks of lightning like energy that appear in their aura. The aggressiveness and impulsiveness of the fighter are further increased in this form. Only a few have been given leave to use this transformation, not only due to the danger to the fighter but to the danger he may pose to others if not ready to handle the personality tweaks. Capsule based transformations last no longer than twenty minutes and greatly tire the user.
Super Human – Mostly a rumor and a theory, Capsule Corp did run some tests trying to create a Super Human. Of those tested, a few achieved a transformation, their hair any eyes turning a silver color but their aura turning the golden yellow of a Super Saiyan. Unfortunately, for those tested, their bodies were unable to handle the power and they subsequently exploded. Due to the trouble, Capsule Corp abandoned the research. It is not known how much a user's power was increased, how long the transformation could last or how tired a user that survived would be after the transformation wore off.
Super Namekian – Much like the Super Human transformation, this one is only theory, rumor and speculation, even more so since it was never tested.
Legendary Super Saiyan – Used by the prototype created in Capsule Corp's Project Broly, it multiplies a user's Base Power Level by 1000. One who uses this transformation seems to explode out of their body into a much larger and more muscular version, that does not seem to lack speed. They exhibit a golden green aura rather than a golden yellow aura. Their pupils and irises disappear. This transformation lasts no longer than fifteen minutes and the only known user is entirely exhausted.
