Cerealian (Dragon Ball Supplement)
Cerealian[edit]
A relatively peaceful tribe of Aliens, the Cerealians have above-average physical capabilities and a rather peaceful feeling for most other races. They have one natural-born enemy, the Frieza Force and the Saiyans, whom they will almost always instantly initiate a death match with should they come across them.
Physical Description[edit]
Cerealians, while not too drastically different from most human-like races, have two distinct traits. The first distinct trait is that they always have hair with a coloring pertaining toward a shade of green. They are slightly more muscular than the average human, and the younger children are a bit flexible in terms of body types. The second distinctive trait is their right eye which has a merged iris and pupil that is a deep red. They reach puberty around 13 years of age and maintain their youth for almost their entire life, save the last decade. They possess a slight tanner skin tone and varying hairstyles with spikes in them. They can range from 5 to 7 feet tall and can be anywhere from 120 to 300 pounds.
History[edit]
The Cerealians were once the inhabitants of Cereal and coexisted with a tribe of Namekians who settled on the planet after traveling from another realm. Around Age 733, the Cerealian homeworld was ravaged by the Frieza Force and its Saiyan Army, with a few survivors. Following this, the planet was later sold and inhabited by a race of Sugarians. With few survivors, the race seems to be teetering on the edge of extinction.
Society[edit]
On their homeworld, the Cerealians seemed peaceful with the local Namekians and had a societal structure similar to that of Earthlings on Planet Earth, with a notable lack of a King.
Cerealian Names[edit]
Cerealian names are commonly derived from types of grains and cereal, usually working as a pun. Some notable examples are: Granolah, Flayk, and Muezli.
