Black Smoke Shenron Template:Appears in:DBGT
In Dragon Ball GT, after the death of Super 17, Goku and his friends put together the 7 Dragon Balls. Instead of Shenron appears a black dragon, that represents the negative energy accumulated for many years (because the Dragon Balls use positive energy). This Dragon is then divided into 7 evil shenrons, each for every Dragon Ball.
Black Star Shenron Template:Appears in:DBGT

Bojack Template:Appears in:DB Movie
Bojack is a big, muscular alien appearing in the DBZ Movie Bojack Unbound. He somewhat resembles a pirate, with a blue-green skin, long orange hair and a long scar over his face. He and his mercenaries first appear disturbing a martial arts tournament (which Gohan and his friends Piccolo, Krillin, Tien, Yamcha and Trunks are attending) by killing some of the people dressed like alien guests who were brought there for the event. Bojack was once locked into a star because he wanted to conquer the universe. When Goku brought Cell (who was about to explode) to King Kai's planet, the explosion freed Bojack. He and his helpers proved to be more than a match for our heroes (even after Vegeta joins them) but are easily killed when Gohan turns Super Saiyan 2. Bojack is also capable of a power-up, in which his body color turns to a light green and his hair turns red (along with all of his upperbody-wear is ripped into shreds, including his bandana. This is probably due to an increase of his muscle mass). One of Bojack's minions showed this ability as well. It is unknown if his other three minions where capable of this as well (they were all the same species). Bojack also shows up in DBZ movie 12, when almost all of the DBZ villains escape from HFIL.
An officer of King Gurumesu's army that uses heavy weaponry to get the job done. He tries to keep Goku from coming into the King's Palace, but he is easily taken down. While inside the palace, he is stepped on and flattened by Emperor Gurumesu.
The powerful Indian who lives at the base of Korin Tower with his son Upa. Bora is just like his name sounds. He's muscular, tall and a man of few words.

Bora is seen with his son in the last couple episodes of Dragon Ball Z when he gives energy to Goku for his Genki Dama. Bora is an example of the noble savage.
Boss Rabbit (Monster Carrot) Template:Appears in:DB
The boss of a small group gangsters that terrorize a small town. The ironic thing, is that he's a giant rabbit and his gang members wear fake rabbit ears. The reason Boss Rabbit is feared so much is because he has the ability to turn people into carrots, just by touching them. He's sent to the moon by Goku where he's forced to make rabbit shaped treats for kids, (it's a play on an old Japanese folk-tale which says that rabbits live on the moon and make treats for children, which is also why Sailor Moon's name is Usagi, because Usagi means rabbit in Japanese). He is clearly gay, at many times showing his strong feelings for Goku, and also by the fact that he seemingly only tries to touch men, to turn them into carrots, which is an obvious play on the homosexual behaviour due to the phallic shape of carrots.
Bubbles Template:Appears in:DBZ
North Kaio's pet monkey who serves as a training exercise. The exercise is to catch Bubbles. It seems easy, but the gravity on Kaio's planet in 10x earth's gravity and Bubbles is perfectly used to it. It takes Goku 11 days to catch Bubbles. He is killed when Cell self-destructs on King Kai's planet.
Bulma's Descendent Template:Appears in:DBGT

Bulma's Mother Template:Appears in:DB, DBZ
She is Bulma's mother and the wife of Dr. Briefs. A certified ditz, she is always interested in flirting with Son Goku and Vegeta. In the anime, she makes a suggestive comment that she would like to go on a date with Vegeta. Not much is known about her, but in the anime she's characterised as the stereotypical blonde air-head who loves shopping and eating expensive cakes. Probably the most disturbing feature of this woman is the fact that, as far as physical appearances go, she looks at least as young as her daughter, and unlike Bulma, she doesn’t appear to age at all throughout DBZ. Her first name is unknown, but according to most people her name is Bunny. Friendly and talkative, Mrs. Brief is seen mostly at home. She loves to have company and entertain guests. And she only opens her eyes once in the entire series. Mrs. Briefs isn't much of a character, but she's a painfully good-natured woman, always ready to serve guests tea and cakes. She seems to be unaware of the danger that is usually happening. During the Buu saga, she and her husband are targeted at Capsule Corp by Buu after someone informs Babidi where Trunks lives. This is the first and only time Trunks refers to her as "grandma" in the series.
Bujin is the short, psychic henchmen of Bojack. He likes to use Chou no Ryoku on his opponents to stop them in their tracks. He and Bujin almost succeeded in killing Trunks if not for Vegeta who intervened. Along with Bido, he is killed by Gohan after going Super Saiyan 2 by getting kicked through the waist, separating him in two pieces.
Burter Template:Appears in:DBZ
A tall blue alien and a member of the Ginyu Force, he was believed to be the fastest warrior in the universe.

He suffers the same fate as Nappa, being defeated by Goku and later on finished off by Vegeta, who crushes his neck. While his power level is never specified, it is estimated to be somewhere between 30 and 50 thousand.
In the animated series, but not the manga, he and the rest of the deceased Ginyu Force travel to King Kai's planet and square off against the Z warriors who were training there. Burter teams up with Jeice, and they are defeated by Tien.

Buu's attacks include Death Ball, turning himself into a cannonball, Earth Destroyer, Kamehameha, Special Beam Cannon, Ki blasts, stretching himself, Super Ghost Kamikaze Attack, and many more(basically any attacks that the person he absorbs has).

He tries to tickle Goku into submission, but that doesn't work, so he goes into a pupa state, (he's a caterpillar creature), to grow into a much more powerful adversary.

Grandpa Gohan Template:Appears in:DB
The adoptive father of Goku who found him in a space ship when Goku was a baby. Grandpa Gohan was taught martial arts by the Turtle Hermit, Muten-Rôshi and passed on his knowledge to Goku. According to a flashback Goku had when he saw Vegeta transform, Gohan warns him to never look at a full moon and to stay indoors on nights of one - implying that he had already tranformed before and Gohan managed to survive the first time. He followed his advice for sometime until one night (as Goku himself explained to Bulma, Yamcha, Puar and Oolong while they were held in prison at Pilaf's castle) when Goku stepped outside to relieve himself; he then glanced at it, transformed and killed Gohan by stomping on him. After seeing Vegeta transform into a Oozaru in the Saiyan Saga, Goku relizes the truth of what happened to Gohan (the Dub version mistranslates this scene and Goku believes Vegeta killed his Grandfather, the Viz version also has this scene mistranslated, but the FUNimation redub corrects this mistake). From that time on, Goku believed that Gohan's soul was in the four star dragonball.
In Dragon Ball, Gohan comes back from Heaven to fight Goku as Uranai Baba's last fighter.
Great Namek Elder Template:Appears in:DBZ
The elder of Namecks. The Saichourou is a Nameckian who has an almost infinite wisdom and some fantastic techniques.

Guldo Template:Appears in:DBZ
A short, four-eyed frog-like creature, Guldo is a member of the Ginyu Force. Though clearly the physically weakest member of the force, Guldo had the ability to stop time by holding his breath. Guldo fought Kuririn and Gohan after their powers had been awakened by Guru. Gohan and Kuririn had a huge advantage over Guldo in power and speed, and Guldo could only defend himself by holding his breath to stop time and hide. He would later use his Mind Freeze technique to freeze them in place. After Guldo had finished toying with Gohan and Kuririn, he used his energy to extract a tree from the ground, making it into a spear, and he would have killed them if Vegeta hadn't killed Guldo, decapitating him with a ki blast.
While his power level is never specified, it is clear he is weaker then the rest of the Ginyu Force and may only be kept around because of his unique ability to freeze time around him. His power level could be estimated as anywhere from a few thousand to 20,000.
Also known as the Ox-King, he is father to Chi Chi. He was trained by Muten Roshi with Grandpa Gohan.
H
Haiyaa Dragon Template:Appears in:DBZ, DB Movie
Heading the list of useless and dismissable characters, this little dragon was Gohan's friend in DBZ Movies 3, 4 and 5 and Garlic Junior Saga. He's a young Dragon who befriends Gohan after he rescues him from a burning forest. Haiyaa Dragon also shows up in several episodes of Dragon Ball Z. His function in Dragon Ball is only to leave ChiChi a more insane person than she already is, therefore sometimes Gohan quits studying to have fun with him. He was renamed Icarus in FUNimation's dub.
Hasky Template:Appears in:DB

When Goku made his wish, Minus Energy increased within the Dragon Balls, particularly within the "Two-Star Ball" (Kanji: ???; katakana: ????????/Ryan Shinchu). When the Dragon Balls became completely corrupted by Minus Energy, the Two Star Ball flew into a lake and transformed into Haze Shenron.
The Wicked Dragon's power was to use his Minus Energy to pollute water and slowly kill all surrounding life.

Rage Shenron also said that Haze Shenron was really the weakest (the strongest was really Syn Shenron).
High King Niko-Chan Template:Appears in:DB
A creature resembling a green butt with a face and antenna who is stranded in Penguin Village along with his servant. In his spare time he either attempts to conquer the Earth, or simply builds a spaceship in order to get back to his home planet. Though his servant is bright, Niko-chan himself is a bumbling idiot.

Hildegarn is only tangible when he's attacking, otherwise, he can instantly teleport away. Goku defeats him with quite possibly his most powerful physical move in the anime story-line, Dragon Fist.

Tenshinhan and Chaozu then step forward and offer to kill the beast for money. Obviously they pretend to kill it, and they get the townspeople's money. They go from town to town doing the same thing, until Goku messes up their evil plans.
Invisible Man Template:Appears in:DB
He is one of Uranai Baba's men. Yamcha volunteers to fight next and is surprised to learn that his opponent is an invisible man. Because he can't see him, Yamcha spends most of this fight getting slapped around. Goku nabs Bulma and Muten-Roshi, then he has Kuririn swipe off Bulma's top, thus exposing what she was graciously endowed with. Seeing this, Muten Roshi suffers from his biggest nose bleed ever and covers the invisble man in blood making him possible to see and thus tangible. In the Funimation Dub this was changed: Kruririn sends Goku off on nimbus to get Muten-Roshi and a can of tomato soup. When Goku returns Muten Roshi throws the tomato soup onto the invisible man, making him visible! Now that Yamcha can see him, Invisible Man is easily defeated.
Iruka (Dolphin) Template:Appears in:DB

Kaioshin, Dai Template:Appears in:DBZ
Dai Kaioshin was the leader of all the other Kaioshins and when he went off to fight Boo he was eaten and turned Buu into the fat version we see at first. Kaioshin's innate goodness made Buu considerably weaker and less violent.
God of all Kaioshins, Dai Kaioshin was a fat, kind god. He is absorbed by Buu in the original fight with the Kaioshins, and because Dai was so good, Buu actually became weaker but a little more under control. His losing power is due to Buu being a creature of pure evil, and any good distorts his nature and nullifies his power, which comes from his evil. Dai Kaioshin is never un-absorbed by Buu.
Kaioshin, East Template:Appears in:DBZ
East Kaioshin (East Supreme Kai) only nearly survived to become the only surviving Kaioshin of Buu's assault. Afterwards, he is typically called only Kaioshin or Supreme Kai, since there are no others to confuse him with.
His loyal companion is Kibito, who is not Kaioshin himself; they fuse together using the Kaio fusion earrings and become Kibitoshin (Kibitokai).
Kaioshin, North Template:Appears in:DBZ
North Kaioshin is one of the Kaio, the rulers of the universe in the anime Dragon Ball Z. He is old in appearance, looking similar to the familiar East Kaioshin, but with a larger head, and a mustache. North Kaioshin was peacefully fishing one day on the Supreme Kai world, when a maniacal monster called Majin Buu attacked it. All four Kaioshins, as well as their leader Dai Kaioshin attacked the monster, but the only survivor was East Kaioshin. North Kaioshin was one of Buu's first victims.
Kaioshin, South Template:Appears in:DBZ
South Kaioshin was resting comfortably one day on the Supreme Kai World, when a manaicle monster called Buu attacked it. All four Kaioshins, as well as their leader Dai Kaioshin attacked the monster, but the only survivor was East Kaioshin. South Kaioshin was the very first victim of Majin Buu's absorption technique, causing Buu to mutate into a massive form known sometimes as Huge Boo. This form makes Goku and Vegeta afraid when they first see it, but then he shrinks back to Kid Buu.
Kaioshin, West Template:Appears in:DBZ
West Kaioshin is one of the Kaio, the rulers of the universe in the anime Dragon Ball Z. West Kaioshin is the only female Kaioshin, similar to the familiar East Kaioshin only with female features and with much longer hair.

All four Kaioshins, as well as their leader Dai Kaioshin attacked the monster, but the only survivor was East Kaioshin. West Kaioshin was one of Buu's first victims
Kaioshin, Rou Dai Template:Appears in:DBZ, DBGT
(Elder Kai, Old Kai). He looks kind of like the East Kaioshin, but with an older, wrinkled face.
Rou Dai Kaiôshin is a Kaiô who came out of the Z sword, in which he had been trapped by an old enemy. Gohan releases him during the Majin Buu Saga when he breaks it, while trying to cut a block, which was made of the densest material in the universe (called Kachink). After being released, he agreed to help unlock Gohan's hidden power so the latter could defeat Majin Buu in exchange for a kiss from an Earth woman (Bulma). Rou Dai Kaiôshin is like Muten-Rôshi in manner, but a lot more knowledgeable and powerful.
Long ago he used to be handsome (by his own standards anyway) but an ugly witch came up to him and stole one of his Potara Fusion Earrings and put it on. Rou Dai Kaiôshin was instantly combined with the witch permenantly. While increasing his ugliness, it also increased his power.
In the Fusion Saga he sacrifices his own life so Son Goku can live, and gives him the Potara earrings to fuse with Gohan on Earth.
Rou Dai Kaiôshin always warns the Z Fighters about using the Dragon Balls too often, and in Dragonball GT it appears that he is correct, as seven Shadow Dragons come out of the dragonballs from overuse (build-up of negative energy).
In the Bebi Saga of GT, Rou Dai Kaiôshin helps Goku become much stronger by regrowing his tail, a painful process involving a giant set of pliars. After Goku has his tail back, he is able to turn into a Super Saiyan 4 and defeat Bebi.
Karoni Template:Appears in:DBZ
One of Mr. Satan's pupils who tries to beat Cell in the Cell Game. Cell doesn't even bother trying to fight him.

Gamera is a giant turtle from outerspace with two rockets coming out of his butt that he uses to fly around with. Since Muten Roshi doesn't fly, lost the Nimbus Cloud to Goku, (which he couldn't ride anyway) and sometimes needs to get places fast, he calls in Kid Gamera. It's a little mini version of Gamera that Muten-Roshi can fly around on. Now, the thing about Gamera is that when he flies, he spins around in circles, so does kid Gamera. So when Muten Roshi utilizes this mode of transportation, whenever he gets off, he immeditaly vomits.
Killa Template:Appears in:DBZ
A big dude who participates in the Battle Royale at the end of the 25th Tenkaichi Budoukai. He's KO'ed by Mighty Mask (Goten and Trunks). His role is minimal in the manga, but in the anime he has some plot-developing flashbacks.
King Cold Template:Appears in:DBZ
He is the father of Frieza. He appears briefly at the start of the Trunks Saga along with his now cyborganic son to destroy Earth as revenge for Frieza's near death by the hands of Goku. After Trunks shows up and quickly kills Frieza, King Cold offers Trunks to take Frieza's place. Trunks undoubtedly declines, which doesn't worry King Cold because he thinks that he only succeeded in killing Frieza because he used a sword. With Trunks' sword in his hand, he strikes the mysterious youth but to his surprise, the blade is effortlessly caught. Trunks begins to overpower King Cold and with his other hand, shoots a ki blast which goes right through his chest, sending him flying towards a huge rock. With a hole in his chest, he continues begging for mercy but Trunks quickly finishes him off.
He was in the second form of his species and is arguably the tallest villain in the DBZ universe, albeit not being able to do anything to showcase his power. He is likely best known for his idle complaints of how long it takes Frieza to start and finish a fight.

Nail is a Namekian who looks exactly like Piccolo, apart from the clothes. He is described as the lone 'warrior class' of Namekian left. He is the personal body guard to Saichourou (Guru), and is very strong for a Namek.
During the Freeza Saga Nail has to fight Freeza in order to stop him from killing Saichourou and getting the Dragon Balls. Even though Freeza was in his lowest power level, Nail was no match for the tyrant, and even lost an arm (which he regenerated) during the battle. Before Freeza could finish Nail off, Freeza is called away for some reason and Nail is left for dead on the ground.
Piccolo then arrives and finds the disabled Namek. Nail is still able to speak, and asks Piccolo to fuse with him in order to increase his chances against Frieza, and at the same time save his life.

In a later episode, Vegeta claims that a pure breed Saiyan's hair style remains unchanged from birth but Nappa was not always bald. He shaves his hair, after which it would never grow back. However, the content of the Bardock movie is not considered canon, outside of the destruction of the planet. One way Nappa could grow hair for a time would be to go Super Saiyan, as any form changes the hairstyle. Form 4 was shown to even regrow Vegeta's hair, which looked like it was ripped off, as does form 3 grow hair that was never there (which is canon). Any changes are reversed once you un-transform.

After Kuririn's surprise attack on him, Recoome had gotten up, and nearly killed him with one kick to the head. Gohan was his next challenger, mainly toying with the boy. Gohan had very little advantage over him, but Recoome's power was too much for him, and he would have died from a broken neck if Goku hadn't arrived in time to give him and Kuririn a senzu bean.

Syn Shenron is all of the negative energy of their negative energy, put into one being. When he first fights Goku, he takes a beating, but then gets desperate and absorbs all the other Dragon Balls to reach his ultimate form, Omega Shenron (almost a fusion between all seven Dragon Balls, his form is nearly the same but he now wields all the abilities of the shadow dragons). This is the most powerful villain in the Dragon Ball Universe, and apart from the Super Saiyan 4 Fusion Gogeta (who failed due to his own cockiness)the most powerful fighter until the very end. He was finally defeated by a Spirit Bomb with energy gathered from all over the universe.

He is very attractive and he is also the 'right-hand man' of Frieza as well as Frieza's most powerful henchman, being the strongest warrior in all of Frieza's army of millions. He warned Frieza of the Saiyan threat, advising him to annihilate the entire Saiyan planet. He has the power to undergo a transformation, which makes him considerably stronger, but it also makes him much uglier. Since Zarbon is a lover of beauty, he chooses to transform only when absolutely necessary. He has a British accent in the English dub.
Zarbon delivers the phrase "Beauty is only skin deep" before changing into a monstrous reptilian beast. During his brutal battle with Vegeta, he is forced to transform into a more powerful and hideous appearance in order to win. He performs multiple roundhouse kicks and headbutts, completely tormenting Vegeta and obliterating him. Zarbon's battle with Vegeta is one of the most brutal in all of DBZ history. After delivering a well-placed piledriver sending Vegeta head-first into the ground, Zarbon returns to Frieza to report his victory. Afterwards, he makes the mistake of healing Vegeta in order to obtain information, and since Saiyans become more powerful after every battle, Vegeta gains the upper hand in their second battle. Vegeta smashes his arm clean through Zarbon's stomach and right through his backside, killing him. Zarbon appeared again in Dragon Ball GT when he escaped from Hell along with all the other villains, although his major role was in Dragon Ball Z.
