Races of Dragon Ball: Broken Destiny
[PTabbedContent][PTab=Human]
Human- This ‘everyman’ species makes up approximately sixty percent of the Earth’s population despite being traditionally viewed as weak when it comes to their basic nature. Friendly, curious, and varied, Humans can be some of the strongest martial artists in the world despite the stereotypes against them. Examples of Humans from the Canon of Dragon Ball include: Krillin, Yamcha, Bulma Briefs, Tien Shenhan, Master Muten Roshi, and many others.

[PTab=Beastman]
Beastman- This species has shared the Planet Earth with humans for perhaps longer than any other species, and despite this are rarer in number. A broad grouping that actually consists of numerous other smaller groupings of anthropomorphic animal people, the Beastman species is almost as wide and varied as their human counterparts. Examples of Beastmen from Canon of Dragon Ball include: Oolong, King Furry, Puar, Captain Yellow, Man-Wolf, Shu, and of course, Korin.

[PTab=Monsters]
Monsters- Monsters are the rarest of natural born Earthling species. They come in numerous shapes and sizes, but are known for their tendencies to be naturally violent and having large appetites. Wide and as varies as the other two species of native Earthlings, Monsters have many natural abilities and can prove to be great martial artists, generals, and politicians, just like anyone else. Examples of Monsters from the Canon of Dragon Ball include: Giran, Pilaf, among others.

[PTab=Namekian]
Namekian- A race of largely green and purple asexual plant like ‘slug men’, the Namekian race is both the oldest extraterrestrial alien race to arrive on the Planet Earth and the most recent. As varied as the humans, the guardian of the Earth for centuries was a Namekian by the name of Kami- where his evil half was a great genocidal warlord. In the four hundred years interim, nearly three hundred years in the past a large flotilla of Namekians covertly landed in the isolated parts of the world and attempted to blend in. For the most part, Namekian tends to make most humans think of a specific type of ‘Monster-type’ Earthling, despite the fact that they are not that at all. Examples of Namekians from the Canon of Dragon Ball include: Piccolo Daimao, Kami, Piccolo Junior, Tambourine, Drum, Dende, Lord Slug, etc.
Example Concepts:
'Salaryman Namek' - Yes, Bass became such a fixture of the universe that other Namekians might mimic him.
'Beach Hobo Musician' A Namekian of any form or clan origin who basically decided to check out of the whole Cat Race and hop down to enjoy the good times and good vibrations.
'Black Heart Namek' - A descendant of Piccolo Daimao and his Demon Clan Namekians. Probably a tad bit evil and brutal.
'Grey Namek' - One of the Namekians descended from the refugees that came to Earth hundreds of years ago.
'White Namek' - One of the 'Guardian Clan' Nameks made by Kami himself to battle against the Demon Clan Namekians and protect the Earth, or a descendant there of.
It should also be noted that Demon Namekians can be of either male or female body type and features, after all the canon showed us wide variations in their designs of reptilian like creatures.[/PTab]
[PTab=Demons]
Demons- They live natively on the Planet Earth in isolated parts, especially the badlands of Earth. They come in many varied shapes and sizes, just like the native Earthlings, but they come originally from a different dimension or plane. Canon Demons from Dragon Ball include: Buu, Lucifer, Beelzebub and others.
Example Concepts: Smallholding Feudal Lord
Orphan in a criminal gang.
Respectable Police Officer.
Stage Magician.
Stereotypical Devil/Demon.
CapTube Star.
Real lost and real cursed food delivery person. They ordered this pizza with a ten centuries or less guarantee, gonna be so mad at you.
[/PTab]
[PTab=Saiyans]
Saiyans- A race of Human like men and women with monkey tails and great appetites, the average Saiyan is descended from one of the Saiyans wished to the Planet via the Dragon Balls, and the average Earthling believes them to be a race of beastman-human hybrids known as ‘Sarujin’. Like all the other races, despite being stereotyped as martial artists and people who love to fight, Saiyans are a wide and varied race more notable for their drive and passion than for their barbaric nature. So varied that not even all of them came to the Planet at once. Some, in a far southern continent, have been on Earth since being on the Planet following the devestation of that continent by King Piccolo Daimao in the first Piccolo Daimao wars, and the Tuffle's building in the rubble or now isolated territory.
Example Concepts: Descendant of a named Saiyan.
Descendant of a 'nobody' Saiyan.
You probably don't need example concepts to be honest.[/PTab]
[PTab=Androids]
Androids- A race which might be considered the ‘fourth’ native species of Earth by all rights, Androids are even more varied than many of the other races. Coming in all shapes and sizes, as well as preferred terms (some like to be called Artificial Humans, some like to be called Cyborgs, some Androids), Androids are a wide and varied race known for two things. One, their natural capabilities being far greater than your average humans, and two, their long lifespans. Despite some of the confusing names related to them, Androids can be of ANY species native to Earth. Monster and Beastman androids exist. Saiyan androids exist. There are likely even Namekian androids.
Example Concepts: Lots of things come to mind. Traditional Cyborgs, Androids, heck Doctor Wheelo's Wheelo Corp could conceivably make a giant robot or transformer if you REALLY want to play something out of the box as an android.[/PTab]
[PTab=Tuffles]
Tuffles- A race which exists on Earth in the alternate universe of Dragon Ball: Broken Destiny. They are largely hidden in bunker complexes in the far southern continents, and those whom are not are either soldiers in the service of the Tuffle Science Executive or its cousin, ISLET, or they are hidden among humankind. Your average Tuffle looks like a human with a slight yellowing of the skin in old age. They may not have started with access to the great abilities of other races, but years of gene splicing, cyborg augmentation, and vat growth clone soldiers made from the DNA of deceased Tuffles, all combine to make them finally have access to the same super abilities of other species. Some, though it is a dirty secret to call someone out on it, even have Saiyan traits. The Tuffles did enslave hundreds if not thousands or tens of thousands of saiyans, after all.
Example Concepts: Deserter of the TSE/ISLET.
Half-Saiyan Outcast.
TSE/ISLET Soldier.
Tuffle Cyborg.
Tuffle Super Soldier.
Vat Grown Clone Soldier.
Circuit Citadel Cashier.[/PTab]
[PTab=Arcosians]
Arcosians- Arcosians, the race which the Frieza Clan hails from, are a group of semi-amphibious creatures which evolved initially in cold climates. Upon the Earth, they are an extreme minority, and viewed largely as a myth. When given proof positive of them, the average Earthling assumes they are some sort of strange Namekian-Saiyan Hybrid, or a Salamander Beastman. In reality, the small population of Arcosians (which exist in numbers no more than 10,000 in total on Earth and around it) exist in the shadows using agents, technology, and spiritual energy fueled transformation techniques/magicks to hide in plain sight as they do like so many other groups of their race do; searching for their long vanished supreme leader, Frieza. With small, highly isolated settlements across the world, they search as devotees for their lord and (if you ask some) savior. They have been on the planet covertly for approximately three hundred and fifty years, searching for clues and at times clashing with the Namekians of the planet, whom they do not differentiate from one another, thinking all are Namekian refugees from the Planet Namek.
They typically only reveal themselves at home, or in their isolated settlements, and they have one at the North Pole, one at the South Pole, one Beneath the Southern Ocean, one in a domed city on the dark side of the moon, one within the Great Central Desert, one in the mountains of the Eastern Lands, and one directly beneath Pilaf Land's aquatic theme park attractions. When they do go out in public, they tend to try to hide themselves, often wearing cloaks.
Example character concepts-
Arcosian Reject trying to live among Humans and hiding their true form.
Arcosian Inquisitor hunting for the true location of Lord Frieza or Namekian Elders.
Arcosian Enforcer.
Arcosian Noble.
Arcosian-Human hybrid.
Arcosian Action Archaeologist.
“Frieza Cultist”
Arcosian Swoop Biker.

[PTab=Hybrids]
Hybrids- Actually a wide variety of different races, hybrids make up a surprising number of the martial artist and ki manipulator population on Planet Earth. In a wide variety, they tend to still have one parent which they take after, at least in some ways. From an out of character standpoint, hybrids may pick one or the other of the traits offered for their parent's races. The combinations of various races possible are wide and varied, but here a few major examples:
Human/Saiyan - The classic hybrid in many Dragon Ball fan's eyes.
Demon/Namekian - Born through the corruption of a Namekian egg by blood and spirit energy of a Demon.
Androids/Anything - This is especially common because no matter the original race it is possible to become a partial android, or cyborg, with modifications.
Demon/Human - Perhaps not even in the recent generations, this could be something like that of a D&D tiefling if you wanted and the result of a dalliance generations past.
[/PTab][PTab=Other & Custom Races]
Other Races- We’re willing to allow you to come up with your own minor races to add to the site’s canon, if you feel that none of these races work for you. At the current moment we have a partial bar/ban on Shinjins/Kaioshins, but beyond that if you can dream it, we’ll see if it works in Dragon Ball.
