Name: Ovaan
Species: Freeza Race
Age: 30
Gender: Male
AppearancePersonality: Ovaan is surprisingly personable and charismatic, considering the reputation his species has. Perhaps it was his servitude in the Freeza Force that forged him into an efficient officer? But unsurprisingly, he is also very patient and very calculating. He's not above using what others might perceive as "dirty tactics" for the purpose of bringing down a more powerful opponent, be it in combat or even in politics. He's not averse to training himself, either, deciding long ago that doing so would aid him in his objective of not getting himself killed in Freeza's service. After a while he just sort of took to it, and has found himself in training even after he no longer had Freeza looming over his shoulder.
Bio: The history of Freeza's people is muddied in rumor and hearsay. Some think the Cold family rose to power by conquering their own home planet and then simply turned their ambition to the rest of the known galaxies. Others have postulated that the Freeza Force began as a peaceful confederacy of independent worlds that simply became an empire when it was taken over by the Cold Family. Regardless, Freeza's own people ended up becoming one of two things: vassals of Lord Freeza, or dead. Naturally, Ovaan was one of the former.
After rising to become a Captain of his own ship, Ovaan discovered that advancement and even basic survival was a deadly game of politics and backstabbing among the officers of the Freeza Force Fleet. He had no choice but to adapt, but it became apparent that Ovaan had a certain... talent for engineering the downfall of others should they prove a political threat to him. While he was never fond of such actions nor took real pleasure in partaking in them, Ovaan had long since resolved to do whatever was necessary to ensure his own survival and the survival of his men. He often treated his crew with a level of respect and care that was never seen in other Captains, and this made Ovaan relatively popular with the rank-and-file as a result.
Of course, such would eventually earn Ovaan the ire of several rivals among the fleet. One in particular had an especially strong ire for Ovaan after the latter had out-maneuvered him, resulting in the peaceful acquisition of a planet into the Empire before he and his own crew could even launch an invasion. He had allied himself with a few similarly minded Captains, all with their own various grudges against Ovaan, and together they were able to fabricate evidence to implicate Ovaan in false charges of treason. Freeza never bothered himself with the commonplace vendettas between his officers, and this was no different. This time it was Zarbon who was dispatched to investigate the matter and deal with the supposedly traitorous Ovaan.
This led to the two eventually fighting, but with the aid of his transformation, Zarbon could easily overwhelm the likes of Ovaan. What saved Ovaan in the end was intervention of his own men. Against all odds, they bravely decided that their loyalty to their Captain was greater than their loyalty to Freeza. With their aid, Ovaan was able to make his escape. But after that, he was a fugitive. He could not risk staying in any place for long lest he risk an encounter with the Freeza Force. And so his ship and now-renegade crew remained on the move, stopping long enough to refuel and resupply and little else. With so much newfound free time on his hands, Ovaan could only think of one way to keep his head clear: training. He trained as often as he could spare and even began to encourage his men to do the same. If at any point they did encounter a ship from the Imperial Fleet then they would need to be ready.
These encounters did happen occasionally, and as they did, Ovaan and his crew also happened to save an increasing number of people from enslavement in the process. Over time this just sort of naturally evolved into an active insurgency against the Empire led by Ovaan and his original crew. Beforehand, most people were too terrified of Freeza to ever consider rebelling. But now? One of Freeza's own people was leading the charge, and if his strength was anything like Freeza himself then maybe there was actual hope for a change?
As this was all coming to a head, Ovaan found himself leading an increasingly vast army of resistance fighters having created a small fleet of their own utilizing salvaged and captured Freeza Force vessels. But this? This was enough to get Freeza's personal attention. Before he was content to just let Zarbon, Dodoria, and the Ginyus put down what he initially thought was an insignificant rebellion. But they'd grown enough for him to treat them as a marginal threat now, and he had one tried-and-true way to deal with people he viewed as threats. As soon as he was able to discover where he was located, Freeza personally set course there with the intention of destroying the planet and all the rebels with it in one fell swoop.
This was it. It was do or die. If they couldn't defeat Freeza now, then there was little hope for them to do so in the future. Freeza watched his trademark Supernova make its descent on the planet, only to raise an eyebrow when it appeared to stop. It was Ovaan, and with the help of a few of his most capable men, they were just barely able to stop the Supernova and redirect it away from the planet. Freeza was enraged, enough to begin transforming but something interrupted him. Once again, it was Ovaan. He knew all too well of Freeza's transformations, being of the same species after all. Theoretically all he needed to do was keep the heat on his enemy so that he would have no opportunity to power up and transform. It seemed to work at first, but then the Ginyu Force arrived on the scene. By this point Ovaan was confident in his ability to take on Ginyu, but the five of them together was enough of a distraction to allow Freeza the time he needed to transform. Now Ovaan found hismelf face to face with Freeza's natural-born final form, the Emperor apparently deciding that this occasion merited... special treatment.
But Ovaan had one last ace. In all the training he had given himself, he discovered that his natural-born form was not the peak of strength his kind was capable of. There was a form beyond it, one that allowed them to concentrate all their power and amplify it a few-fold. Now was the time to test this theory out. To Freeza's shock, Ovaan had also transformed into what he could only surmise was a seeming fifth form, something he had always assumed was impossible. But before these two powers could clash, there was a bright flash and then, for Ovaan, everything went dark. At least for a bit.
When he came to his senses, Ovaan had found his Transformation had been undone. He was in an unfamiliar place, and was being glared at by what looked like a young, diminutive girl.
TechniquesDeath Beam (learned through a combination of independent training and observing its use by Freeza)
Nova Saber (a blade of Ki summoned by the hand and briefly wielded as a weapon, capable of batting away small ki blasts and even severing some larger beams)
Nova Shield (a round shield made up of ki that can be conjured on one of the arms, strong enough to block most physical attacks and weaker Ki blasts and can also be thrown as a disc attack as well)
Nova Charge (lunging attack that opens with a gut punch and is followed by a powerful point-blank Ki blast)
Nova Bomb (a power-packed sphere of explosive Ki, charged in two hands above the head and then hurled straight down)
Transformations:Other Info: He greatly dislikes using his Fifth Form, viewing it as too hulking and brutish for his tastes. So he will only use it if forced to, and afterward will willingly revert back to his much preferred Fourth Form.
