Frieza (フリーザ)

Frieza is one of the most iconic and powerful villains in the Dragon Ball universe. He is a member of the Frieza Race, known for his ruthlessness, overwhelming power, and cruel desire for dominance. Frieza serves as the primary antagonist in several Dragon Ball sagas, most notably the Namek and the Universe Survival arcs, and his actions are central to much of the series' plot, particularly his role in the destruction of Planet Vegeta and his encounter with Goku on Planet Namek.

Appearance
Frieza's appearance is most often seen in his final form, where he is sleek, streamlined, and humanoid, with white and purple skin. His body is compact and his tail is one of his most distinct features, often used in combat. In his final form, Frieza stands at 158 cm (5'2"), which is relatively short compared to many other characters, but his power more than makes up for his size. Frieza’s various forms, including his first, second, and third forms, showcase different levels of power, with each transformation displaying increasingly menacing features. His final form is the most iconic, designed to be more streamlined and intimidating, fitting his role as the Emperor of the Universe.

Personality

Frieza is known for his sadistic and tyrannical personality, exhibiting a complete lack of empathy or mercy toward others. He rules the universe with an iron fist, destroying entire planets and civilisations to serve his own desires for conquest and power. Frieza’s arrogance and belief in his own superiority often lead him to underestimate his enemies, which ultimately proves to be his downfall, particularly in his final battle with Goku. Despite his cruelty, Frieza is an incredibly intelligent and calculating individual, capable of extreme cunning in battle and strategy. He is not just physically powerful but also a master manipulator, using his ability to manipulate others and his calm demeanour to his advantage. However, beneath his composed exterior lies a deep insecurity about his own strength, which is why he becomes increasingly desperate when pushed to his limits.
