===================================

(Saiyan, Female, 23 years old)

Nikita was born to a Saiyan Tenkaichi tournament runner up and a 'poster girl' who preyed on men like him for money. Though the conception was accidental, her father left after she was born, disgraced at the idea of needing to raise a child while her mother only went through with the birth to avoid any complications down the line from her peers, giving up her former life to take on a dead end receptionist job. Her mother was resentful of her existence, feeling a baby ruined everything and so was disinterested in raising her child. She turned to alcohol to soothe her woes, as many so often did.

Nikita grew up often feeling lonely, only being supplied with attention when her mother knew it was absolutely required of her. Whenever she tried to speak to her mother, she would only generate frustration, prompting a shout and a smack, leading to the young halfbreed hiding herself away in her room and developing interests in nothing more than video games, TV and the internet. Through mass media, she soon learned of the Z Warriors and their history, becoming a fangirl of their exploits and imagining herself being a part of their group. Her indulgence in this fantasy continued on for years.

During her school life, she made next to no friends, losing the ones she did make over time. She often remained shy, choosing to avoid her classmates in fear they might learn of her life, but word soon spread among them about her lowlife mother, her runaway father and even that she lacked any sort of combat prowess, a feat that many of the students took advantage of to tease and bully her. She often came home, badly roughed up, a fact her mother would continually ignore.

When she was old enough, she learned of the Time Patrol and immediately signed up, hoping to become a better fighter and one day see the Z Warriors in person as an elite. She met a veteran patroller, a Heran named Seiryo, who pitied Nikita's lack of combat ability or self respect, she decided to try and train the saiyan in the hopes she might achieve her goals one day.

However, Nikita was convinced she had no talent, witnessing the brutal, graceful or otherwise fantastic combat prowess of the time patrollers. This mindset plagued her, even during her training with Seiryo, whom believed there was talent hidden underneath her self depreciation. It even began to hinder her combat ability even worse, prompting Seiryo to try and drive her harder with harsher lessons. Eventually, the Time Patrol held a tournament to establish who would be worthy enough to take on the important missions and move up in the ranks.

Seiryo made use of this fact to give Nikita one final push, in the hopes that if she won a battle, her confidence would rise enough to break free of self doubt. Nikita agreed to take part after a whole lot of soul searching and pushing. The first round came, Seiryo having her fingers crossed. But the fight was a sham, Nikita unable to land a single solid blow during the fight while her human opponent devestated her.

She crashed to the ground, though she wasn't knocked out quite yet. Seiryo hoped Nikita would get up and fight on, but the half-blood saiyan simply lay face down, unwilling to move. Though it was counted as a K.O, everyone around saw that she had given up. Seiryo left the arena before Nikita even got up, and she too left quickly and quietly.

Months passed by, Nikita moving away from Conton City to live alone, away from everyone. She became a recluse, choosing to avoid going out. She became jaded, misanthropic and hateful, all thanks to her own failures and self-loathing. She continually wished something would happen that would end her own miserable life while she stayed indoors living a lousy shut-in lifestyle.

She does not get on with the other Time Patrollers anymore, some of them mocking her for being so weak and pitiful while she convinced herself that they all secretly mock her. She feels any attempts at consolation are just insincere and rejects all offers to do anything with anyone, simply looking for reasons to leave the conversation and go home.

(Bonus: She once got a wish from the Dragon Balls, but instead of wishing to be a good fighter, she wished for larger breasts in the hopes she'd be liked more for it. Shenron, deciding to interpret the wish as vaguely as he could, gave her a coupon for breast enlargement surgery, which she sadly took straight away and got implants. Though she's happy with a larger bust, she doesn't feel obligated to put them to use for any reason other than her own amusement.)
