Cooler

Cooler
Dragon Ball Z

Struggle all you want! It's over! That's what you get for disgracing my family!
~ Cooler to Son Goku

Background

Cooler is the first son of King Cold and older brother of Frieza, who leads his own small squadron known as Cooler’s Armoured Squadron. Although Cooler has seemingly no affiliation with his brother and father’s armies, Cooler is in the same line of work; he and his force taking over and selling entire planets, and was stated to have taken even more planets than Frieza.

As the years go along, it came to Cooler’s attention that his brother had been overpowered and defeated by a Saiyan native to the Planet Earth, Son Goku. Feeling that Frieza dishonoured his family by losing, Cooler decided to get his revenge on Goku and bring honour back. With this, he and the Armoured Squadron travelled to Earth.

While on Earth, Cooler and the Armoured Squadron raised as much havoc as they could to draw Goku out, including defeating people such as Piccolo, Krillin, and Goku’s own son, Gohan. As a response, Goku appeared and knocked out the Armoured Squadron, before facing Cooler himself.

Cooler put up a good fight, although he was pushed to unveiling his hidden Fifth Form. Unfortunately for Cooler, though, Goku’s Super Saiyan form was more than match for him, and he was seemingly incinerated in the sun. Unbeknownst to Goku, however, pieces of Cooler’s body and mind survived.

A floating computer chip in space had been absorbing all matter and energy around it, until it formed into a giant bio-mechanical spacecraft known as the Big Gete Star. The Big Geta Star came in contact with Cooler’s remains, absorbing them and fully reforming his consciousness from them. Cooler’s consciousness eventually overpowered the Big Gete Star and took control of it.

Now fully in control, Cooler began reforming a body for himself out of biological and mechanical parts, which he named the Meta-Cooler Core, while at the same time creating clones of himself called the Meta-Coolers, which would carry out his demands. Eventually, Cooler sent the Big Geta Star towards the New Planet Namek, where it would land and wrap itself around.

The Big Gete Star would act as a large parasite that sucked energy from the planet, while Meta-Cooler’s creations rounded up the Namekian people to use as slaves. Son Goku and his team, feeling the distress from the Namekians, travel to the planet to stop the problem.

After Goku and Vegeta are taken out by the Meta-Cooler army, they are brought to the Meta-Cooler Core so that he may sap their energy for himself. However, Meta-Cooler Core’s circuits are suddenly overloaded with energy, and he is forced to attack them in his incomplete body.

The Meta-Cooler Core is defeated by Goku and Vegeta, getting a huge ki blast shot into his stomach with the entire Big Gete Star crumbling too. Vegeta then crushes the Big Gete Star’s original microchip, preventing both it and Cooler from ever being able to return again.

He does have an innate evil nature, however, as killing seems to be something he is extremely proficient in)

Dimensionality: 3-D

Attack Potency: Large Planet level (Could defeat post-three years of training Piccolo; Piccolo was able to overpower Android #20, and was stated to even match a Super Saiyan at the time; both of which should be superior to Final Form Frieza at this point in time, who is much stronger than his First Form that destroyed Planet Vegeta) | At least Large Planet level, likely far higher (Is much stronger than his Fourth Form, though was heavily outclassed by post-three years of training Super Saiyan Goku; Goku was said to have been surpassed by Super Saiyan Vegeta, who himself was weaker than Android #18) | Solar System level (Could contend with, but was ultimately overpowered by, a weakened late-Cell Saga Goku; this Goku could significantly harm Perfect Cell, who was going to destroy the solar system)

These forcefields can be expanded, and used to protect others and defend against attacks far higher then the user), Immortality Negation (Type 7; Gotenks can destroy the Dictator’s undead army with their Ki; others with Ki should thus be able to do the same), Light Manipulation (Cooler can generate Ki, which gives off light), Transformation (Cooler can transform), Self-Sustenance & Spaceflight (Type 1; As a part of Frieza’s race, Cooler can survive in, and travel through, space), Paralysis Inducement (Cooler can induce paralysis with Psychokinesis), Telekinesis (As a member of Frieza’s race, he should be able to perform similar telekinesis), Afterimage Creation (Cooler can use afterimages), Non-Physical Interaction (Those with Ki were able to harm the Ghost Warriors), Healing (Ki is shown to have healing properties), Fusionism (Cooler can perform the Fusion Dance)

Notable Techniques

  • Flight: With a mastery of Ki control, Cooler is able to fly at incredibly high speeds.
  • Ki Blast: Using Ki, Cooler can concentrate it into a ball that he uses as a projectile attack.
  • Ki Sense: Cooler is able to detect lifeforms and power levels from far off.
  • Death Ball: A large purple ball of ki that both Frieza and Cooler use, which causes massive explosive damage on contact.
  • Supernova: Cooler raises his hand above his hand, and a large sun-like ball of ki forms in his hand. Both Frieza and Cooler use this attack, primarily used for destroying large areas of landmass, like entire planets.
  • Death Beam: A thin, purple beam of energy that Cooler shoots out of his finger.
  • Darkness Eye Beam: Similar to the Death Beam, Cooler generates two purple beams which are shot out of his eyes.
    • Destructive Ray: Meta-Cooler Core’s version of the Darkness Eye Beam.
  • Nova Chariot: Cooler is surrounded in intense purple energy, and then rushes forwards at full speed. He has used this technique to race through Goku’s Kamehameha.
  • Energy Absorption: Meta-Cooler Core can attach his circuits to his opponents and sap their energy from them.
  • Destroy Laser: Meta-Cooler Core fires a gigantic purple beam from his face.

Other

Standard Tactics: Cooler will employ hand to hand combat along with ki blast. | Will send army of Meta-Coolers to overwhelm the opponent.

Weaknesses: Much like his little brother, Cooler is extremely arrogant and overconfident in himself, believing that it was Frieza’s lack of power that had him lose to a Saiyan; not even considering that the Saiyan could have been powerful. This attitude is what leads to his supposed death. Even when assimilated into the Big Gete Star, Cooler remains this same weakness, along with him now having circuits that are susceptible to energy overload.
