#saiyan hybrid

[deathbeamz]

He's done!! This lil guy has been an insanely difficult to design but I'm finally happy with him!

Yuzu is the conceptual/alternate timeline son of Goku and Frieza, his name primarily a (very purposeful) play on Saiyan names and Frieza Force names, as well as his biogem colors.

He has some odd mutations, mainly his hair consisting of a fullbody mane that goes from his head to the tip of his tail, including the split in his head gem as a result. He also has EXTREMELY sharp teeth and a strong bite force. All of these radical mutations are theorized to be tied to the Oozaru form that he doesn't have access to.

Also his potential? I don't even have to go into detail: he's a prodigy and has the potential to access both Frost Demon forms and Saiyan forms. (doodle of SSJ and Golden in the upper right)

Unlike both of his parents personalities, he's pretty shy and sedate in normal day to day behavior (including being a very quiet child most of the time) but becomes familiarly intense during combat, and does hold a major interest in cultivating said skill.

Lore wise, in the timeline he exists in, Goku had been divorced for several years amicably due to his absence after Cell's defeat and ended up with Frieza after some very unexpected changes in the timeline. Their relationship is positive and Yuzu has a very stable home life, if not a bit unconventional <3

So yeah, here's the guy! For the main ref I pretty much put him in the same outfit that young frieza had in the broly movie since I needed to have all his features and traits visible. Normally though? He has absolutely immaculate outfits (of course he would, Frieza's a rich mf)

If anyone wants to know more about him or like, literally anything, just ask. I love him, he is a little guy.

Random thought about the hybrid Saiyans...

Goten, Trunks, and Pan were all born abnormally strong compared to any full-blooded Saiyan we see, and they've been described as "tailless hybrids."

The thought just came to me today... I bet they're exactly 10 times stronger than they would've been if they'd been born with tails.

Because becoming an Oozaru makes you 10 times stronger.

Basically, they don't have the capability of transforming into Oozaru... because that extra power is already integrated into their base form. They've got the power of a giant monkey but without any of the downsides (tail is an obvious weak point, mindless rage that needs practice to control, becoming a huge target.)

This also fits with the 6th Universe Saiyans, who have evolved to be tailless... and, probably not coincidentally, are all abnormally strong in their base forms and have a much easier time transforming into Super Saiyans. Sound familiar? Yep, they're just like little Goten and Trunks!

Now imagine if little Gohan had been born without a tail. When he gets angry seeing Raditz beating up his dad, instead of his power level rising to 1300-something he jumps all the way to 13,000. Sorry Piccolo, you won't be needing that Makankosappo to poke a hole in Raditz this time... that 4-year-old is going to do it with a headbutt.

Shin? 🤔

The Human Saiyan. Some folks might think its weird or stupid that Gohan "needs" glasses to see but it's in line with his character. He embraces his human side and that means accepting all the flaws that come with it. Now if only he could stop breaking them... Hybrid Saiyan. All the powers of a saiyan and All the weaknesses of a human...

[shannonsketches]

I'm sure it's been discussed at length already but I think it's easy to assume saiyans are strong so their genes are dominant but I (like to) think it's the opposite. It's interesting to think that the ecological nature of a saiyan is stealthy and invasive, and according to Jaco a saiyan invasion was going to be extra dangerous to earth because they look like earthlings (and a lot of other human-like races in the db universe) and one baby saiyan will easily go completely undetected until it starts the extermination process.

so it actually makes a lot of sense to me that a saiyan hybrid would take more physical traits from a local species, while maintaining the potential to house a saiyan's strength and inborn power over ki (which I think due to the story following a group of people who use it is a thing we often forgotten is a super rare and dangerous ability in that universe, and inborn/instinctive to a select few very powerful races). Could also be a fun way to explain why their tails can detach and grow back, since that may be the only real Tell.

because like yeah gohan and goten look like goku but they also look like chichi ykwim? trunks and bulla look like bulma. pan looks like videl. thoughts i chew on.

I also just find parasitism a real good meaty horror concept to put in my little 'this is why everyone's afraid of saiyans' headcanon file along with 'can see in the dark, biologically strategic energy consumption, can go long periods without food or rest' and of course the canonical 'surprise monkey werewolf kaiju'

DBZ: Gogo's Full Body Reference

Full design for Son Gogo, another DBZ OC of mine. She's Goku and Chi-Chi's daughter and their third child, conceived after Buu Saga. She's meant to be either in her late teens or a young adult on the first drawing. :) The name "Gogo" means "5pm" in Japanese, it was the time she was born, hence the name.

Second-Born Saiyan Hybrids Have Lazy Designs

I love how Toriyama gave Gohan and Trunks qualities from both their parents.

Gohan is a bit tricky because his parents have similar colouring. He mostly resembles Goku but there is something about his face (maybe the chin?) that he gets from his mom that prevents him from looking like a Goku copy. Also, I find it interesting that during the Namek arc, when he has that bowl cut, his hair resembles his mom's! He also tends to have paler skin like his mom. And we can safely say that Gohan gets his rage boost tendency from her too. I will never stop saying this: Gohan is the best Saiyan hybrid. I will not take criticism.

Trunks is also an awesome mix of both his parents. He has Vegeta's skin tone and facial features but the Briefs family colouring. Future Trunks seems to have inherited the family smarts given he was able to read 17's design plans in Dr. Gero's lab. And Kid Trunks has Vegeta's cockiness in spades and teenage Bulma's too-cool-for-school attitude. Too bad my boy Future Trunks did not get a tail :(

But their siblings are just boring carbon copies of one parent.

Goten is a mini-Goku. He has Goku's simple nature, his naivete, and his innocence. He looks almost exactly like Kid Goku. I don't mind that but I see no traces of Chi Chi in him. Given that Chi Chi was the only parent he knew, I would expect at least something from her to rub off on him. I am struggling to see any resemblance with Kid Chi Chi but my mind is drawing a blank. I wish his character could have been explored more in GT besides being a guy who likes dating. Maybe explore his daddy issues or something.

And Bulla/Bra is honestly a waste of space character like Marron. She is a mini-Bulma with none of the charm and genius to go with her. She's a spoilt daddy's princess who loves shopping and that's it. She looks to have Vegeta's jawline(???) but I don't see anything of Vegeta in her. She could be Yamcha's daughter for how little of a Saiyan hybrid she is. I hate all the DB next-gen girls!!! Especially Bulla! At least Marron has the excuse of being the fully human daughter of a guy who lost battle relevance by the Cell saga. And Pan left her safety bubble to be useful against threats and she had a great fighter spirit. Why the hell is Bulla even here in the story!

It's like Toriyama could not be bothered to make the second-born kids their own character and give them interesting designs and personalities like their siblings. Goten deserved better writing. Bulla can die for all I care.

You get shake art of an incredibly inaccurately colored thermus as a treat :) also i probably could have fit his tail in there but oh well

Otherworld Visited [Gohan x Tifa, Buu Saga AU]

cc-gohan “Hey Tifa, I heard from Dende that you visited your parents in the Otherworld, how did that go?”

@badassbarmaid answered

Tifa saw Gohan approach, her eyes lighting up at his question.

"Yeah--! Yeah, I did..."

It had been an incredible and shocking experience. One moment, she was home, the next, she was traveling the Otherworld, told that she had been granted this chance to see her parents. Her mother was beautiful as ever, healthy and strong as they embraced for the first time since Tifa was a child. Her birth father was someone she was too young to meet. He had died on their home planet. She only knew him from stories.

Meeting him had her heart swell.

It was an odd thing, seeing her birth parents together. But also seeing her stepfather, too. Somehow, their three spirit made it work in the afterlife. Her dads(?) got along like buddies, her mother telling her not to think too deeply about the whole thing. What mattered was they were at peace and all proud of her.

They couldn't linger too long, but the time she spent with the three of them, telling them stories of her growing up and getting strong, of meeting Prince Vegeta and being taken care of...those were moments she would always remember. She did ask her human dad while he didn't resurrect, to which he explained he was at peace with his life and wanted to remain in the Otherworld with her mother. It was sad, but she understood, after seeing how happy they all were.

"It was..." Tifa tried to say, a smile on her face as she recalled the interaction. "....perfect."

"I see, I'm very happy for you, TIfa!" Gohan replied cheerfully, especially since that talk he had with Tifa about her parents, he did not sense that invisible weight on her like he did before.

"We deserve something like that after we saved the universe from Buu so..." he added, accidentally letting slip out that he knew more than he should.
