For as long as the written word has existed, legends were told of seven mythical spheres called Dragon Balls. Scattered around the Earth, the legends say that whosoever can gather them together, they need only to call forth the mighty dragon that sleeps within and he will grant them any wish their heart desires. No records exist of anyone ever summoning the Dragon, but myths surrounding the Balls can be found in multiple cultures, lending credence to their legitimacy. But the Dragon Balls are not Earth's only legend. In fact it has a rich history of warriors and martial arts masters. Even in the modern day, the Martial Arts are revered with a tournament that is only held once every three years called the Tenkaichi Budokai. As that name suggests, it is a tournament held to determine who is the Strongest Under the Heavens. But the Earth is about to learn that they are not alone in the Universe.

In another Galaxy, a race of warriors called the Saiyans make a name for themselves on a galactic scale. Craving battle, they became known for roaming planet to planet, each conquered by only one or two Saiyans at a time at most. But they are few in number, their home planet lost to a disastrous meteor strike five years ago. What remains of the race is a handful of survivors under the command of one who calls himself their King. Their invasion of other planets is an effort to find a new world suitable for them to make a new home. In all of this, a pair of Saiyans find themselves eying the Earth itself. Their Scouter devices have alerted them to several individuals with high battle power residing on the planet. But rather than approach this cautiously, they instead have decided to see this as a challenge to test their mettle as proud warriors. And they may also have come to Earth in pursuit of another goal as well.

[center][h2]Rules[/h2][/center]
1. Follow all the usual rules of Roleplayer Guild.
2. The GM's word is law, and that is final. This also applies to Co-Gms as well.
3. We'll playing it fairly loosely concerning power levels. This will give players a bit of leeway in letting battles be more story-driven rather than always boil down to a numbers game.
4. Numerical power levels will exist, but as the above rule implies, they are not the end-all-be-all of character capability. In fact I predict we'll be ditching the numbers after a couple of arcs.
5. The RP will progress over a series of Arcs and Sagas. Yes, there's a difference. Arcs will be characterized as being shorter and often more fillery, while Sagas will be longer and more plot relevant. In fact it's even possible for an Arc to happen within the events of a Saga.
6. Everyone is welcome to submit ideas and suggestions for both Arcs and Sagas. In fact I encourage it, as it will give us more opportunity to explore each of the characters and actually try to give everyone a legit character arc rather than just defaulting all the focus onto one or two protagonists.
7. For the time being, I'm limiting players to one character each.
8. Saiyans are allowed, but they are not allowed to already be living on Earth for plot reasons.
9. I reserve the right to add or change the rules as the need demands it.

[center][h2]Races[/h2][/center]
[b]Humans:[/b] The dominant species of Earth. Humans as a race are mostly all-rounders, decently average in all fields and through training can become more focused or specialized in specific areas or disciplines. Humans are also believed to embody the power of potential, and such is characterized by their innate talent for mastering techniques. At any time when characters would normally be allowed to have their character learn a new Technique, human characters will instead be allowed to learn two.

[b]Beastmen:[/b] The second-most dominant race on Earth. They aren't really a single race, as the name is a catch-all to refer to the many animal-like people that also populate Earth. Like humans, they are mostly all-rounders, but their animal features (claws, fangs, etc) can be used to give them an edge in melee combat. They also have sharper senses, both physically and in terms of sensing Ki.

[b]Saiyans:[/b] Human-like warriors that originated from the Planet Vegeta. In fact their monkey-like tails are the only feature that physically distinguishes them from humans, that and the fact that Saiyans keep the same hairstyle from birth until death. A race of born-warriors, Saiyans are infamous for being born with higher power levels and having a greater aptitude for battle than other races. Saiyans are also infamous for their power levels increasing exponentially when they recover from near-death. But the Saiyans' greatest weapon is the Oozaru, a giant ape-like transformation that occurs under the full moon and while the Saiyans still have their tails. But that tail also serves as their greatest weakness, as simply squeezing it can render a Saiyan helpless and in pain. Saiyan characters tend to have the highest raw power levels, but lack the refined training and discipline that a human martial artist might have.

[b]Namekians:[/b] Genderless slug-men that come from the remote planet of Namek. Namekians have a similar aptitude for Ki that Saiyans possess, but often have a greater control over it. Their ability to elongate their limbs and become giant-sized almost at will can make them quite a powerhouse and heavy hitter. On top of that, Namekians can use their Ki for a powerful form of self-healing, even able to regrow their lost limbs. Overall, this can make Namekians among the most durable fighters there is. They aren't without their flaws, though, as regeneration can render them with far less Ki then they had previously. Growing Giant can only be done for a short period as they have to burn Ki in order to maintain the increased size. Their ears, while able to hear even tiny sounds from farther away, are also sensitive and very susceptible to high-pitch sounds like whistling.

[b]Demons:[/b] Beings originating from the mysterious Demon Realm. Very little is known about them, or even how many varieties there are. A Demon character's traits and characteristics are up to the player to decide on, the GM or Co-GMs will either approve it or ask for changes to be made.

[b]Alien:[/b] This one will be similar to Demons, giving an option for a player to create their own alien race.

Other races such as Freeza Race or Artificial Humans (Androids) will become available for player characters later on.
