-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Characters
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Goku
Appearance: Wearing an orange gi and has black hair sticking out all
over the place.
KI attacks:
2 KI: A fast, invisible KI blast shot from the hand.
4 KI: Goku shoots a single-handed KI blast, four consecutive blasts, or
a large two-handed blast depending on the card strength.
6 KI: Solar Flare: The targeted enemy is unable to attack this turn.
8 KI: Kamehameha: Blast that's charged up and fired.
10 KI: Kaioken: Receive after training under King Kai. Raises BP. The
stronger the KI card, the more BP gained.
20 KI: Spirit Bomb: Available when using Kaioken. Charge up for a
number of turns. Before each turn, it will ask you if you want to keep
up Kaioken. Choose "Yes" (the top one). It will then ask if you want to
throw the bomb (Top) or continue to charge it (Bottom). The longer you
charge it, the stronger the blast.
Goku is the strongest character you'll ever control, unless you train
the others REALLY hard. He is the main character of DBZ, and is the one
who goes Super-Saiyan. However, you hardly get any chance to use him.
If he dies, it's game over
Piccolo
Appearance: You'll know him when you see him. He's green.
KI Attacks
4 KI: Same as Goku's 4 KI attack,
10 KI: Special Beam Cannon: A powerful spiral beam shot from the
fingers.
A long time rival of Goku, Piccolo is the second strongest character.
He is who you use to kill Radditz. When on Namek, he can fuse with
other Namekians to make his BP skyrocket. If he dies, it's game over
Gohan
Appearance: The little black haired kid.
KI Attacks
4 KI: Same as Goku and Piccolo's 4 KI attack.
15 KI: Masenko: Gohan's trademark attack. Similar to Kamehameha.
Gohan, the son of Goku, is pretty good he's strong, which is darn good
'cause you won't have Goku, Piccolo, or Vegeta most of the game. You
play as him most of the time, in the sense that he's the character you
guide around all over Namek. If he dies, it's game over.
Krillin
Appearance: Bald guy wearing a gi similar to Goku's.
KI Attacks
8 KI: That one attack Krillin used against the Saibamen.
6 KI: Solar Flare: Same as Goku's.
8 KI: Kamehameha: Same as Goku's.
12 KI: Destructo Disc: Throws an energy disc that cuts clean through
the opponent. Very Strong.
Krillin is the probably strongest human fighter that you will control,
and is Goku's best friend. He has about the same BP as Tien, but Tien
has better attacks. When getting ready to fight the Saiyans, he's
directly below you. His suit kinda blends in with the sand, so he's not
that easy to see. He can die and you can still continue the game.
Yamcha
Appearance: Orange gi, long hair, two scars. Pretty basic.
KI Attacks
8 KI: Kamehameha: Guess what it does.
12 KI: Multidirectional Fireball: Shoots a fireball from his hand.
Always hits.
Yamcha is a long time friend of Goku's. He can be useful in battles,
with Multidirectional Fireball. The problem is that his BP's
pathetically low, so Tien's automatic hit is a better use for a KI
card. When getting ready to fight the Saiyans, he's in the middle of
some rocks east of Krillin. He can die and you can still continue the
game.
Tien
Appearance: Man in tank top and green pants. Oh yeah. He's tricloptic.
He has three eyes.
KI Attacks
4 KI: Unless noted, all 4 KI attacks are the same.
6 KI: Solar Flare: Same as all the other Solar Flares
20 KI: Tien uses psychic powers to break up some rubble and send it at
the targeted enemy. It can miss, though.
15 KI: 4-Man Attack: Tien splits himself into four Tiens and they
either all shoot a blast at him or do the more powerful attack above.
Either way, it always hits.
Tien was one of the characters introduced later in Dragonball, along
with his best friend Chiautzu. He has about the same BP as Krillin,
maybe a bit higher, which is good 'cause you'll be using 4-Man Attack A
LOT. When getting ready to fight the Saiyans, he's with Chiautzu in
some rocks south of Yamcha. He can die and you can still continue the
game.
Chiautzu
Appearance: He's pretty easy to see, as he's CHALK WHITE with red
cheeks.
KI Attacks
8 KI: Fingertip Blast: Shoots blast from finger. Same as that killer
thing Frieza uses.
6 KI: Same thing as Solar Flare, excepts holds them with psychic
powers.
16 KI: Self-Destruct: Unlike the T.V. show, he doesn't really blow
himself up. He grabs onto the enemy's back and discharges a load of
energy. Pretty strong.
Chiaotzu is pathetic. Plain and simple. He's useful for cannon fodder
and doing small, extra amounts of damage. That's about it. He's the
worst character in the game. His BP is lower then any other character,
save Dende. His attacks suck. His one good attack is hampered by his
low BP, usually causing a miss and a waste of a good KI card. Still,
he's cool to have around, he's cute, and he's extremely useful against
Frieza stage 4. He's with his best friend Tien when preparing for the
Saiyans. He can die and you can still continue the game.
Vegeta
Appearance: Spiky hair is all that distinguishes him.
KI Attacks
2 KI: Same as Goku's 2 KI attack except uses two fingers instead of
hand.
4 KI: Think about it.
8 KI: Same as Tien's 20 KI attack, except weaker and hits EVERYONE
active this turn, even your fighters.
12 KI: Destructo Disc: Same as Krillin's.
20 KI: Gallet Gun: Similar to Kamehameha, but WAY stronger. Strongest
attack in the game.
Vegeta starts out a bad guy and is one of the Saiyans you battle.
However, on Namek, he joins you after getting the one star Dragonball.
From then on, he's one of the strongest characters and will save your
butt many times. He can die against Frieza and you can still continue
the game.
Dende
Appearance: Kinda like a mini Piccolo. He's also green.
KI Attacks
None
Dende has the lowest BP of any character, starting at 10 and never
rising. However, at level 3, he has the ability to heal one character
per turn without using any KI or cards, making him still more useful
then Chiaotzu.
Nail
Appearance: Looks A LOT like Piccolo.
KI Attacks
To tell you the truth, I've never used his KI attacks. Coming soon.
Nail joins you for a very short time after defeating another Namekian
in the same room of the cave he's in. He has a pretty high BP for you
when he joins, making it a big disappointment when he leaves right
away. Later, he'll fight Frieza stage 1 and lose, of course. In the
near future you'll search him out as Piccolo and fuse with him, raising
Piccolo's BP significantly. At the point when you get him, you'll have
to work real hard to get him killed, but if you do, game over.
Namekian #1 (I don't know his name)
Appearance: Another Piccolo look alike.
KI Attacks
4 KI: Think real hard about this one
Namekian #2 (I don't know his name)
O.K., this is just another Namekian that helps you. His KI attack is
the 4 KI one. He joins you with Namekian #1.
Namek Child
Appearance: Basically a carbon copy of Dende.
The guy can't fight, so what's the point of going in depth?

| Gohan Kidnapped |
-----------------
After Gohan gets kidnapped, you gain control of Goku and Piccolo on
Master Roshi's Island. Go Inside and Talk to Krillin to get a Turtle
Card, Bulma to Recieve the DragonBall Radar, and to Master Roshi to
recieve 40 Points. Now you should fly away towards the North while
leveling up Goku, and Piccollo to Level 3. Head for a White house in
between two mountains in the middle of the map, and enter. Mr.Popo is
under attack by some SayibaMen. Kill the SayibaMen to recieve a Gohan
card from Mr.Popo.
Head for the Cave in the middle of the map. There is a Card shop just
outside of there where you can stock up on cards. Sell your useless
cards that you won from the battles, and buy as many Kami cards as
possible(these restore all your HP). Head inside the Cave, make sure to
explore it throughly to find some Cards to aid on your quest. At the end
of the Tunnel, Raditz will appear and challenge you to a fight
