Age 762
the Galactic Frieza Army runs rampant engaging in a conquest of universal proportions, even going as far as to raise their own flag despite being a faction under the banner of the Planet Trade Organization. His father, the supposed leader of the PTO, King Cold allows him to roam free and do as he pleases. He would never stifle the progress of his sons. The elder brother Cooler, keeps a calm head continuing to bring planets under his own rule through the means of his Universal Cooler Forces, as they have come to be known. Understandably, the two brothers remain at odds. In some cases, their forces engage each other on sight.
Age 763
The reign of the PTO, the reign of the GFA, and the reign of the UCF sparks fear in the hearts of many. But for some, those who would rather die than live as servants, these sparks have begun to light flames. The flames, though small continue to grow in secret. A rebellion is on the rise, though it’s numbers are small and scattered. Were they to organize and come together, they might just pose a formidable force, but until such a point can be reached the idea of freedom from the tyranny of the PTO will never come to pass.
Age 764
Our story opens on Planet Balsora. A planet newly united under what is known as a benevolent ruler. It is a relatively unknown planet, with a small population. Still, it boasts advanced technology, beyond that seen on most other planets throughout the galaxy. Having heard rumors of its advancements and of the presence of potentially powerful warriors, a squad was sent by Frieza after having been ordered to investigate by his father. And so the curtains open, and the space opera begins.
This is essentially a reiteration of the Interest check information, albeit a bit more organized I feel. Only the important bits. Now:
- As the players there will be two general groups you can be apart of. A rebellion or Frieza's army.
- Dying will be possible. If we never learn of the Dragon Balls, that's it, you're dead until further notice.
- It's also important to note that if you have a character who fights, but doesn't train, other characters who do train will overtake you. It will not just be assumed that you train. You will lose fights. I will lose fights. Everyone will lose some and win some.
- The first arc will focus primarily on character introduction, meetings, and not as much on combat.
- Player discussion is important. If you are in the rebellion it's not very big, so lets say a it has been around somewhere between 6 months and a year. Frieza's forces, and the PTO, have obviously been around much longer.
- If you make a character of a particular race, be prepared to work with me to better flesh out said race, as is often necessary for many races that appear. I see no reason for Namekians to be present, at least not in the beginning.
More stuff for you guys. Again, just recap:
- Unless I have no choice, but to give up I am in things for the long haul. I hope you will be too.
- I can sometimes be late. I sometimes make mistakes. I will let you guys know whenever possible if I will be gone.
- This is not first come first serve. I will give anybody a chance to apply and decide which characters I think will mesh or clash well enough to drive the plot forward and make for a fun game.
I am not without bias, but I try to be as impartial as possible when it comes to character judgment.
I will always try to be civil, but I will also be honest. I apologize if I seem like a dick, but I will not apologize for the honesty. - I'll accept somewhere between 7 and 10 players (unless given a good reason I will not budge on 10 as the cap)
- First and foremost, standard RPG rules do indeed apply.
- As the GM of this roleplay my word is law. As such, please follow the guidelines set by myself along with any, and all, Co-GMs.
- No Mary/Gary Sue, Overpowered, bullshit tier characters please. While it is important to note that not every character will be on the same level, it is also important that nobody is immortal/untouchable.
- No power playing, metagaming, whatever. OOC knowledge should not be utilized in the IC, you should not, in any major way, attempt to control, harm, or move another player’s character without permission.
- Romance is, of course, allowed. However, please take any sexual content and other acts above the PG-13 mark to PM or fade to black or whatever
- It is likely that there may be death, but all matters will be discussed beforehand. Still, there will most certainly be destruction and gore, within reason. So, please be aware of this.
- Have fun and try to be as active as your schedule allows. I know it is tough, but please try to let someone know whether or not you'll need to go if you can.
- I honestly don't mind cursing or other variations of coarse language too much. However, please do not go overboard.
- Being that this is casual level roleplay I expect a paragraph per post. Understand that this is a MINIMUM requirement, lowballing at that, as I understand it can be difficult to slam out large posts on a regular basis for some.
- Finally, as the Gm of this RP I reserve the right to add and/or change any of these rules as I see fit, although I will only do so within reason of course.
Post character sheets in the OOC tab for review first; if they have been approved, they can be moved to the Char tab.

CHARACTER NAME
"Quote"
NAME
Names should be written western-style: first name, then last name.
AGE
So, there’s no one specific age range for anyone to abide by. And obviously, different races would have different ways of telling time. We’ll be judging things based on Earth time for OOC type stuff, because that’s easier for us as players. And lets be honest, it’s Dragon Ball, we’ll probably end up either on Earth or in a place like Earth at some point.
GENDER
Male, Female, Both, Neither, Trans, etc. Try not to complicate it too much.
APPEARANCE
Describe your character's appearance, emphasis on aspects not covered by the faceclaim. It doesn't have to be super elaborate, but you need to have something here, especially if you don't have a faceclaim to work from.
If you've got extra pictures for whatever reason, you can throw them in a hider here or beneath your character pic above.

RACE/ORIGIN
Your character's race and origin are pretty important. What type of alien creature are they, as we have learned just about everything is some type of alien or another. What planet do they come from? Small descriptions of the race and planet can be placed here. I’ll have a separate sheet for the more detailed stuff set later.
Power Level
Keep in mind that in this section we’re either on or around the levels of the Ginyu Force in there first appearance. Power Levels are kinda bullshit, so this is with a grain of salt and we’ll be playing around with it. It does still give an indication of power though. Regardless, in this section, you can put anywhere between 5 and 150,000 no higher.
PSYCHOLOGY
It's a personality section, so here's where you talk about what your character's like. "How do they act?", "What makes them tick?", "What do they aspire for and what are their doubts?" and so on. Keep in mind, you can’t just put anything here. There’s generally a reason for the things a character thinks and does. It should correlate with the history section at least a bit.
HISTORY
Your character's lifestyle and significant experiences up til adulthood, or however old they are now. Write as much as you feel appropriate, but make sure you include why they decided to do what they do. The reason can be simple or it can be elaborate, as long as it more or less makes sense.
ASPECTS
Your character's Aspects are the attributes that make them unique and give them their edge (no not that kind): traits, talents, affinities, special abilities and so on. Generally speaking, what would go here are the kinds of things that are inherent to the individual and cannot be taught. You should only have one or two things here. Three would be the absolute most, and even then that’s stretching it a bit. I’d also like to try and avoid excessive overlap between multiple people here, if possible. So if you want something that's the same as someone else, sort it out between yourselves.
Some examples from canon would include the Saiyan Zenkai Boost, Frieza Race Golden Form, Namekian Stretching, Majin Regeneration, and Technological Advancement of a particular world, or whatever.

SPECIALIZATION
This is where you describe the skills that your character specializes in, as well as why they would have it. No need to go overboard on the description, though. Bonus points if they have a special named fighting style and you list off the techniques. There shouldn't be too many of these since they're only the skills that are core to your character, not those that they occasionally dabble in. Try not to make these too similar to another character or characters.
You’ll probably be making your own, but some examples from canon would include Kikoukenjutsu, Turtle School Style, Crane School Style, Science, Robotics, and Cooking.

EQUIPMENT
The things your character owns and what they do: their assets, weapons, objects of sentimental value, technology and so on. Only the important stuff though; exclude the overly mundane stuff like wallets, phones and grilled cheese sandwiches. When it comes to those kinds of things, we'll play it by ear since inventory management isn't my thing.
RELATIONSHIPS
Describe how your character thinks of and interacts with the members of their immediate family, their significant friends and enemies, and the other PCs. It can be described in character and/or out of character as long as it's described, and usually each relationship shouldn't be more than a paragraph at most.
As far as the PC relationships go, they don't have to be super deep, but they have to be there since you've been around these people for at least a small period of time now. Obviously, you’ll need to talk with other character to come up with this.
