Ideas

Tablos[1]

1. Tablos (from Dragon Ball AF)

Character Backstory: Tablos is a powerful and mysterious Saiyan who was originally meant to be a major antagonist. You can explore his origins and motivations. For example, he could be a rival or even an ally to Goku, depending on how you want to position him. Maybe Tablos has his own goals, like restoring the Saiyan race or seeking vengeance on someone from his past.

Powers and Abilities: He is known for having the power to match Super Saiyan 4, and some versions of him even suggest that he can transform into something similar to Super Saiyan 5. His design and abilities give you a lot of room for creativity. You could have Tablos unlock a new form or discover a hidden power that challenges Goku and Vegeta.

Personality: Depending on what direction you want to go in, Tablos can either be a cold, calculating villain or an antihero with a tragic past. Perhaps he was a former ally of someone like Bardock or even a remnant of an older Saiyan faction, giving him a reason to either fight with or against the Z Fighters.

2. Super Saiyan 5

The Concept: Dragon Ball AF introduced the idea of Super Saiyan 5, which is typically depicted as a more advanced form of the Saiyan transformation. It often shows the Saiyan with white hair, a glowing aura, and massive power.

Incorporation into Your Fic: You can introduce Super Saiyan 5 as a new goal for your characters, something they must unlock through intense training or emotional struggles. Maybe Goku and Vegeta's rivalry leads them to push past Super Saiyan 4, or an entirely new character reveals the transformation.

Unique Twist: Since this is from the fandom, you could tweak the design or lore of Super Saiyan 5. Maybe it comes with unique drawbacks or requires a powerful energy source that only certain people can access.

3. Xicor (or Zykor)

The Son of Goku in AF: Xicor is a fan-created character who is often portrayed as the son of Goku and a female Kaiju-like entity, or sometimes as the result of Goku's own powers fusing with some mysterious force. He's typically depicted as a dark counterpart to Goku.

Role in Your Fic: Xicor could be an antagonist, seeking to dethrone Goku or even challenge him for the title of strongest fighter in the universe. Alternatively, Xicor could be a tragic figure who was created due to an accident or manipulation, leading him to seek redemption or connection with Goku.

4. Dragon Ball AF's New Villains

Dark Force/Chaos: Some AF fan versions introduce an organization or force of dark beings, often trying to conquer the universe or destroy it. You could create a faction like this, with members who challenge the Z Fighters in new ways.

Galactic Empire or New Races: If you want to expand the universe, you could introduce an alien empire or a new powerful race that was previously unknown, but whose power rivals or exceeds that of the Saiyans.

5. The Role of Vegeta's Pride

Dragon Ball AF often plays with the idea that Vegeta's pride can be both his greatest strength and his greatest weakness. You can lean into this dynamic in your fanfic by showing his internal struggle with surpassing Goku or learning to accept his role as a leader and protector rather than always trying to be the strongest.

Vegeta's Growth: Perhaps Vegeta achieves something like Super Saiyan 5 before Goku, or he trains in a completely unique way, incorporating his Saiyan heritage and his love for his family. You could have him experience a transformation or realization that makes him less prideful or opens up new abilities.

6. Ancient Saiyan Lore

You could dive into the rich history of the Saiyan race that was only briefly touched upon in the main series. Maybe there are ancient, forgotten Saiyan techniques or weapons that the Z Fighters uncover. The legends could be centered around a lost battle or a forgotten god-like entity tied to the origins of the Saiyan transformations.

7. The Shadow Dragons / Negative Energy

While the Shadow Dragons are technically from Dragon Ball GT, their concept is sometimes borrowed in AF and other fan works. You could bring in the idea of negative energy corrupting the Dragon Balls or other sources of power. Perhaps someone tries to gather all the Dragon Balls again, but this time the wish-making process unleashes something dark and destructive.

8. Fusion and New Fusion Forms

Fusion is a huge part of the Dragon Ball universe. In AF, there are some fan ideas where new characters or combinations of characters can fuse, leading to entirely new forms or powers. You could have unique fusions of characters from the main story or even some new characters you create.

9. Alternate Universes or Dimensions

A common fan theory is that the Dragon Ball universe might have other dimensions or universes that interact with the main one. Maybe characters from these alternate universes seek to alter the timeline or challenge the Z Fighters in new ways.

Introducing a multi-dimensional aspect could add intrigue and allow you to create new, powerful characters or enemies that haven't been seen before.

The Legendary Super Saiyan:

The Legendary Super Saiyan is a rare mutation that can occur in a Saiyan's bloodline, manifesting as a transformation that is far stronger than the typical Super Saiyan. This transformation has been associated with Broly in both the canon and the fandom, but you can expand it by adding new characters or unique traits related to it.

Possible Elements to Incorporate:

The Genetic Mutation: The Legendary Super Saiyan form is often depicted as a product of a rare and unstable genetic mutation. While most Saiyans can access Super Saiyan transformations through training, the Legendary Super Saiyan appears to be a dormant gene that is only unlocked in specific, high-stress situations or through extreme emotions. You could explore this concept by having other Saiyan characters who carry this mutation, perhaps even those who do not yet know they have it.

Broly's Role: Since Broly is the most famous example, you could tie him into your story by making him an enigma or a central figure. Maybe in your fic, he's hunted or revered as the ultimate warrior, but his true power and the cause of his mutation are still a mystery to most. Alternatively, you could create a new character, someone who has been training secretly to unlock this mutation, and have them rival Broly.

Psychological Effects: The transformation is not only physical but often mental. The Legendary Super Saiyan form can overwhelm the user with rage, often leading to uncontrollable aggression. You could explore how the characters wrestle with this uncontrollable power and the emotional toll it takes on their psyche. Maybe the more they train, the harder it becomes to control the form, and it begins to take over their personality, potentially making them a danger to their friends.

How to Use This in Your Fic:

Perhaps the Legendary Super Saiyan gene exists in certain Saiyan bloodlines but is suppressed or forgotten. If certain characters are descendants of ancient or rare Saiyan warriors, they could unlock this power later on, leading to conflicts over control of it.

You could introduce a new character with this power or have a legacy of the Legendary Super Saiyan appear, someone who doesn't necessarily know they carry the mutation until they face extreme trauma or battle conditions.

Unique Forms: The Legendary Super Saiyan could have its own unique version of power. Maybe the hair isn't just green or gold but shifts color based on the user's emotional state. Or the transformation could cause physical changes that make the user more monstrous, like Broly's enormous size or even a hybrid appearance blending humanoid and primal features.

Mutant Genes from the Raze:

This sounds like a reference to some kind of Saiyan "mutants" who have been altered through either natural evolution or artificial manipulation. In Dragon Ball fandom lore, there are fan-made theories about "mutant" Saiyans who are more powerful than regular Saiyans due to altered genetics, and they often have access to forms and abilities beyond the standard Saiyan transformations.

Potential Concepts for Mutant Saiyans (or Raze Mutants):

The Raze: The idea of a race or faction known as the Raze could be a new addition to the Dragon Ball universe. Perhaps they are a group of Saiyans who were subjected to extreme genetic experimentation either by the Tuffle scientists (from Dragon Ball GT lore), the gods, or even alien forces like the Freeza Force. They could be an ancient sect of Saiyans who were mutated for the purpose of creating superior warriors. The result could be a race of Saiyans who have enhanced physical abilities, unique transformations, or abilities that even surpass typical Saiyan traits.

Unique Transformations: These mutated Saiyans could have transformations that go beyond Super Saiyan. For example, they might unlock a form similar to the Legendary Super Saiyan, but it could come with different attributes. Maybe their transformations are more emotionally controlled, or perhaps they have unique abilities like manipulating energy or even elemental powers that other Saiyans can't access.

Biological Adaptations: Mutant Saiyans might have a biological ability to adapt to environments that would normally overwhelm typical Saiyans. For example, some could possess extreme heat resistance, or others might gain the ability to regenerate faster, essentially making them harder to kill. This could also tie into their ability to push past the regular Super Saiyan forms into something entirely different.

How to Use This in Your Fic:

Perhaps there's a secret sect of Saiyans, descendants of the Raze, who have lived in hiding. Over time, they've developed into beings with new powers that make them both feared and revered in the universe. They could be hunting for others who share their bloodline to reclaim their lost legacy.

These mutants could be the antagonists or allies to Goku and Vegeta, depending on their intentions. Maybe they are trying to revive an ancient Saiyan empire or seeking revenge on those who abandoned them.

The Raze Mutation could make these Saiyans more unstable than regular Saiyans, pushing them to either become super-powered allies or dangerous foes. Their abilities could be unstable, making them constantly at odds with each other or with other powerful beings like Frieza or even other Saiyans who don't trust them.

Becoming the Legendary Super Saiyan:

A Rite of Passage: In your fanfic, you could explore a more structured approach to becoming a Legendary Super Saiyan. Maybe there's a ritual or process that some Saiyans believe is necessary to unlock the mutation or powers that give rise to the Legendary form. This could involve confronting ancient Saiyan trials or tapping into forbidden Saiyan knowledge that was passed down through generations. You could even introduce a powerful artifact or relic that is key to awakening this transformation.

Unlocking the Power: There are various ways characters could unlock this transformation. It could involve extreme emotional stress, combat with a powerful foe, or a near-death experience that triggers the transformation. Alternatively, it could require deep meditation or a different kind of training—something that hasn't been explored in the canon but could lead to unlocking the Legendary Super Saiyan power.

The Mutants as Key Holders: The mutant Saiyans, such as those from the Raze, could hold the key to understanding how to trigger the Legendary Super Saiyan transformation. Perhaps they possess ancient knowledge about the genetic mutation and how to unlock its full potential. This could put them at odds with other characters who are trying to achieve this transformation.

Ideas for How to Bring This All Together:

A Hidden Legacy: Your fanfic could revolve around the idea that the Legendary Super Saiyan gene is not just a mutation but a hidden legacy of the Saiyan race. Characters from different factions (including the Raze mutants) could be seeking to unlock the power for different reasons—some noble, some destructive.

An Ancient Conflict: The Raze mutants could be ancient rivals or descendants of the Legendary Super Saiyan mutation itself. Their return could signal a new war or an ancient prophecy coming to fruition, with Goku and Vegeta standing in the way of a major cataclysm.

Supreme Kai of Time teaching Bloodfare to be a Kai properly.

🕰️ Who is Chronoa?

Title: Supreme Kai of Time

Origin: Introduced in Dragon Ball Xenoverse and expanded in Dragon Ball Heroes.

Domain: Time Nest (a realm outside space and time).

Role: Maintains the timeline, fixes distortions, and protects the natural flow of events from temporal disruptions.

🧠 What Could Chronoa Teach a New Kaioshin?

If a new Kaioshin trained under Chronoa, their lessons would be more metaphysical and multidimensional—touching areas the traditional Kaioshin don't usually deal with.

1. Understanding Causality and Consequences

Teaching a new Kaioshin how every action, no matter how small, ripples across time.

Emphasis on long-term vision: "What you create today could collapse an empire a millennium from now."

"To guide life, you must understand how the past, present, and future are bound together."

2. Temporal Ethics

When not to interfere.

The danger of altering fate even with good intentions.

Lessons in non-linear morality—knowing that sometimes allowing suffering today preserves balance tomorrow.

"Even a god must bow to time's natural course. Some tragedies are seeds for future greatness."

3. Time-Sensitive Crisis Management

How to handle anomalies, paradoxes, and temporal villains like the Time Breakers (e.g., Towa and Mira).

How to seal or repair timelines without unraveling reality.

"In time's garden, pull the wrong weed and the whole world withers."

4. Dimensional and Multiverse Awareness

The difference between timelines, universes, alternate realities, and pocket dimensions.

How creation and destruction must align not just across space, but across time.

"A perfect universe today means nothing if it collapses tomorrow. Plan beyond eternity."

5. Wisdom and Restraint

Unlike other Supreme Kais, Chronoa is rarely seen using power offensively—she uses knowledge, timing, and allies.

Teaches the value of delegation and trust, especially in working with Time Patrollers (like Trunks).

💡 Final Lesson from Chronoa:

"A Supreme Kai must understand the thread of fate. You are not just a creator, but a weaver of time's tapestry. Guide carefully, or it will unravel in your hands."
