I'll win. I am Dabura. I am the Demon King! I don't care how many kilis of energy they have. There is no one in the universe who can exceed my power!
~ Dabura

Background

Dabura is a demonic entity spawned in the Demon Realm, who served for thousands upon thousands of years as the King of the Demon Realm. Though the Realm itself is mysterious and unknown, Dabura was an incredibly evil and belligerent ruler, with a heart filled with evil.

Unfortunately, this heart of evil was turned against Dabura, once he encountered the alien wizard, Babidi. Using his evil magic, Babidi was able to twist Dabura’s evil heart under his control; granting him an “M” on his forehead, and the title of Majin.

Dabura would go on to serve under Babidi blindly, including Babidi’s invasion of Earth, where he and Babidi’s other minions were tasked with gathering energy to reawaken Majin Buu. Dabura eventually was pitted against Son Gohan, who he toyed with for a while before abruptly leaving the fight.

Unbeknownst to the heroes, Dabura had sensed the evil heart within the Saiyan, Vegeta, and revealed this to Babidi, which led to the creation of Majin Vegeta. Once Majin Vegeta gathered enough energy, Majin Buu was unleashed. However, he was absolutely nothing like Dabura imagined.

Feeling insulted by Majin Buu’s innocence and toddler-like nature, Dabura decided that Buu would need to be taken out, as he would be incredibly dangerous to both he and Babidi if left unchecked. Dabura’s attempt to stop Majin Buu, however, was horribly ill-fated. Before he even knew it, Buu had transformed the Demon King into candy, and ate him.

Following his death, Dabura was sent to Other World, where King Yemma decided that he would enjoy Hell too much, and so sent him to Heaven. Now free from Babidi’s control, and surrounded by the goodness of Hell, Dabura began to see the error of his ways.

Slowly but surely, Dabura became an extremely pure and benevolent being, who would go on to help the heroes look for Son Gohan, when they encountered him in Other World. He regretted his actions deeply, truly having become a good person. He was likely revived when a wish was made on the Dragon Balls to bring back all those with a good heart, who were killed by Majin Buu.

Statistics

Tier: 4-B

Name: Dabura

Origin: Dragon Ball

Sex: Male

Age: Unknown

Classification: Demon King, King of the Demon Realm, Majin

Status: Deceased (Turned into a large cookie by Majin Buu and then eaten, thus being killed)

Alignment: Neutral Evil (Dabura does not cause evil for the sake of it, instead following Babidi's orders exactly as given. Though he does find pleasure in combat, he will immediately turn-tail and leave a battle if he is instructed to, or if he feels that fighting is no longer necessary), Neutral Good in Heaven (Dabura is a benevolent leader, seemingly always happy and always vouching for peace. He doesn't appear to have a strict moral code, nor does he act selfishly, merely spreading peace wherever he goes and acting pleasant to those he meets)

Dimensionality: 3-D

Attack Potency: Solar System level (Was stated that his maximum power was likely equal to Perfect Cell, possibly even far stronger, and was shown to toy with a weaker Super Saiyan Gohan; being comparable to Cell would make him on par with Cell’s Kamehameha, which was going to destroy the solar system, which was going to be done through the process of destroying the sun)

Durability: Solar System level

Striking Strength: Solar System Class

Lifting Strength: Class G (Superior to Namek Saga Super Saiyan Son Goku, where the super saiyan transformation increases him by 50 times, putting him at this level. Superior to King Piccolo Saga Goku, who fused his untapped potential with the Oozaru within him, making his power tenfold above his previous self who moved a giant boulder with a lot of effort)

Travel Speed: FTL (Should be far faster than Cell Saga base form Goku, who was able to travel from Grand Kai’s planet to Hell in at most 10 minutes time)

Combat Speed: FTL (Can move on par with Super Saiyan Gohan, who is far faster than Namek Saga Goku; Namek Saga Goku fought so fast that King Kai could not keep up with him, despite King Kai being able to track his spaceship without problem)

Reaction Speed: FTL

Stamina: Superhuman (Has existed for hundreds of years in a presumably hostile environment, and could outperform fighters such as Son Gohan in combat. Even after a difficult fight with Gohan, Dabura was able to casually walk away from the battle once it began to bore him)

Range: Standard Melee, Extended Melee Range with Darkness Sword & Evil Spear, Interstellar with Ki Attacks (Ki attacks can reach out of the planet and to other planets. All ki attacks should be comparable to Goku's kamehameha, which reached all the way to the sun)

Intelligence: Extraordinary Genius (Dabura is shown to be an extremely competent and level-headed fighter, more-so than any of his allies. He is not only capable of facing Son Gohan, who has over a decade of fighting experience, but is also presumed to have existed for countless years)

These forcefields can be expanded, and used to protect others and defend against attacks far higher then the user), Light Manipulation (Ki can be used as a flash of light), Non-Physical Interaction (Those with Ki were able to harm the Ghost Warriors), Healing (Ki can be used to heal beings, allowing them to survive even with half their torso, it can also heal from near death), Fusionism (Dabura can perform the Fusion Dance)


Standard Equipment

Darkness Sword, Evil Spear


Notable Techniques

  • Flight: With a mastery of Ki control, Dabura is able to fly at incredibly high speeds.
  • Ki Blast: Using Ki, Dabura can concentrate it into a ball that he uses as a projectile attack.
  • Ki Sense: Dabura is able to detect lifeforms and power levels from far off.
  • Magic Materialization: Using magic, Dabura is able to conjure weapons for himself out of thin air, such as swords and spears, which he can use with great proficiency.
  • Evil Flame: Dabura spews a stream of demonic flames from his mouth, which melts nearly anything it touches.
  • Telekinesis: Dabura can telekinetically move objects, such as the barrage of boulders he telekinetically threw at Son Gohan.
  • Stone Spit: By spitting onto an object, Dabura is able to immediately turn it to stone. Those turned to stone remain alive, though their stone bodies are extremely fragile. If Dabura is killed, the petrification is undone.
  • Cape Swing: Dabura slices through the air with his claws, which launches streaks of Ki energy at the opponent. These ki streaks are shown to cleanly cut through nearly everything.

Other

Standard Tactics: Dabura will employ hand to hand combat along with ki attacks. He will also use his stone spit ability to petrify his foes along with using his sword in combat.

Weaknesses: None notable.

Note: Some clips used on the profile come from an anime or movie due to the fact that some abilities from ki use shouldn't function much differently from how they can in canon, along with this sometimes the anime version/video game version of a scene will be used for cleaner visuals. Toriyama himself directly overlooks scenes in the anime and movies and gives Toei the thumbs up[1].
