Name: Bardock
Race: Saiyan
Age: so let's just say Adult
Gender:Male
Alignment: Was Neutral Bad , but now Good.
Appearance:
Personality:Bardock displays personality traits fairly typical of Saiyans. He loves fighting and destruction, and he used to be a cold-blooded killer. He has a laid back and fearless personality, as evidenced by he and his crew accepting missions that baffle even Frieza's elite soldiers, and his taking responsibility in confronting Frieza alone. Until the Kanassan's gift foresight begins changing his life, Bardock thinks fairly little of his being a father, and so he generally doesn't acknowledge the newborn Kakarot except when the child is a topic of conversation among his platoon, and when he begins experiencing visions of an up-and-coming Kakarot. However, Bardock deeply cares for the members of his team, and is enraged after finding them ransacked on Planet Meat, particularly Tora during their last conversation.
Bardock showed his bravery when he saw his impending doom: instead of fleeing for his own life, he chose to stay behind and fight to the death. By his final confrontation with Frieza, Bardock has had a significant change of heart thus making him realize that Frieza's evil ways is what got him into this mess and is the cause of destruction of Planet Vegeta. His personality is still the same however, he likes to fight yet he has turned to the side of good. Having faced the panic and distress of his life and the existence of his race coming to an end, he loses all concern for exterminating civilizations for selfish gain and instead tries to avenge those he killed.
History:
The biological father of Kakarot (later rechristened Goku) and Raditz, Bardock is a low-class Saiyan mercenary who leads a small platoon comprised of four other Saiyan soldiers, Tora, Fasha, Shugesh and Borgos. Together, the five make a living by traveling to various planets where they decimate the defenses of these civilizations and prepare them for Frieza's planetary market.
After clearing a society on the Planet Kanassa, a weakened survivor emerges, catching Bardock off-guard, and instills in the Saiyan the ability of precognitive foresight. This ability, the Kanassan believes, will over time serve Bardock with vengeance for the crimes Saiyans commit in the name of Frieza. While in recovery after the platoon's return to Planet Vegeta, Bardock is met with what he passes off as a delusion. In his vision, he witnesses the destruction of his homeplanet by the hand of Frieza. During this time, presiding doctors attest that Bardock's power level is approaching beyond anything he's had and that at this rate he may surpass the strength of the Saiyan ruler, King Vegeta.
Bardock is still out of commission when Frieza executes his selfish plan to resolve the paranoia he is experiencing. Following Frieza's orders, the capable soldiers Tora, Fasha, Shugesh and Borgos are instructed to clear the civilization of Planet Meat. Before long during their visit to the planet, the group encounters one of Frieza's most esteemed minions, Dodoria, and his elite who, by Frieza's orders, betray and make short work of the Saiyans.
When Bardock is informed that his team has accepted an offer on Meat, a still injured Bardock hurriedly makes preparations to pursue his friends, unaware of the dangers that await at his destination. Eventually once upon Meat, Bardock discovers his ravaged comrades, and to some fortune finds that Tora is alive but in critical condition. Vowing to avenge the four, Bardock removes Tora's armband, now soaked in blood, and dons it over his head (providing an emotional backstory for one of Bardock's most recognizable physical features). Bardock is suddenly assaulted by Dodoria's Elite, although for a low-class Saiyan, he is able to dominate over the elite-class fighters until Dodoria launches a Super Mouth Blast, overpowering Bardock and leaving him for dead.
Bardock charges the Final Spirit Cannon in the final confrontation with Frieza.
Bardock barely survives this attack, and coming to terms with the fact that his visions are actual premonitions and not a case of delirium, he desperately struggles against time to return to Planet Vegeta and change the grim fate of his people. Upon his return to the planet, he immediately begins spreading the word of danger, but his panic (as well as the state of his condition) only leads bystanders to believe Bardock is overreacting after having finally met his match during a typical mission.
Bardock's last moments.
Terrified at the reaction he has received and the helplessness of his situation, Bardock in a frenzy takes to the skies where Frieza's spaceship is orbiting, in a last resort effort to throttle Frieza's plan to eradicate the Saiyans. As Bardock displays an abnormal ability to fend off hundreds Frieza's soldiers, Frieza decides that the situation is growing out of hand. Frieza's decision is solidified by his perceived insolence of another Saiyan, King Vegeta, who has invaded Frieza's spaceship with his servants' in an attempt to rescue their prince, Vegeta (who at this time is nowhere near the ship, as he is carrying out orders on another planet). After killing King Vegeta and his royal guard, Frieza steps out into the orbit of Planet Vegeta where he encounters Bardock, who insists that the Saiyans refuse to continue being oppressed and commanded by the tyrant. Intending to wipe out the Saiyans anyway, Frieza doesn't see a problem with Bardock's allegation, and somewhat patiently listens to Bardock's speech, staking out the perfect opportunity to commence his genocide. This opening comes when Bardock attempts to kill Frieza using a Final Spirit Cannon, which Frieza retaliates with by laughing manically as he expands a charging Supernova. Within moments, the Supernova is set free from Frieza's fingertip and careens through numerous bystanding soldiers en route toward the Planet Vegeta;
It was then that Frieza had destroyed the Planet, but instead of dying, Bardock was somehow transported to another Planet, where he met Frieza's Ancestor Lord Chilled. It was because of a cowardly attack by Chill on an innocent inhabitant, and his anger from Frieza and him that chained off his anger, awakening his Super Saiyan abilities. He then sent something of his own, to finish of Chill. Out of nowhere, he was warped once again, but this time back to the future, on Earth.
Powers and Techniques:
Special abilities

* Final Spirit Cannon - A whitish-blue sphere of ki that Bardock uses in an attempt to assassinate Frieza.
* Great Ape - as with all Saiyans with a tail, Bardock has the ability to transform into a Great Ape at the sight of a full moon (or another source of Blutz Waves). Bardock transformed into it while on Planet Kanassa, Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2, and Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 3.
* Heat Phalanx - a heated ki punch technique which appears in the Budokai video game series and the video game Burst Limit.
* Final Revenger - One of Bardock's Blast 2 attacks in the Budokai Tenkaichi series. Bardock knocks the opponent up into the air with powerful attacks and finally knocks them down to the ground.
Roleplay Sample:
Bardock had finally landed on Earth. He could since a high power level when he exited the ship. He looked up and followed his senses and then made his way closer and closer to his destination. He had to find Kakarot. It's been so long sense he seen his youngest son. He had hoped that he was stronger, he needed someone to avenge their race. Someone, to take out Frieza for good. That someone, had to be none other than Kakarot. Bardock knew that he couldn't do it because he had already tried but his son was different. Could Kakarot pull it off?
Bardock continued until he came upon an island. He gave a confused look until Kakarot rushed out to see who it was who had arrived. "Who are you?" said the son of Bardock. Bardock smiled as he looked into his son's eyes. Could it be true? Was that really his son who stood before him? He couldn't believe his eyes. "I'm your father, Kakarot!" he said in a medium tone. Kakarot looked at him in shock and then shook his head. "Kaka.....whata?" he asked in wonder. "I have no father! I was raised by my Grandfather!" he said loudly.
Master Roshi who stood by his pupil, he looked at him and spoke what could only be the truth. "Goku, there is something that you should know. I didn't want to tell you yet because the time wasn't right, but I guess it's time now. Your grandfather told me a long time ago that he spotted some sort of space ship in the woods...when he seen you he took you in. He tried to take care of you but you were wild, and you were out of control and you wanted nothing to do with his kindness until one day you fell and hit your head. From then on, you were a happy and loving boy!"
Bardock nodded and looked at his son and then continued. "See, I told you! I am your father...Kakarot, Frieza destroyed our home, Planet Vegeta. We must avenge the Saiyans! We must defeat Frieza, I just wish we were strong enough!" he said with a sigh. He looked at Kakarot and awaited his response. "Who's Frieza?" asked Kakarot. He didn't know, but it seemed that one day, he was bound to find out.
