Starting Year: Age 736.

Our timeline begins one year before the destruction of Planet Vegeta at the hands of Frieza. Due to this start point, there will be no limitations on any race that we use in the RPG. This means there could be 100 people playing as Saiyans. However, it will determine the technology of the RPG. While there were not a lot of technological leaps throughout the series a few things weren't around at this point, notably the Dragon Ball Radar. This would also affect the abilities of anyone who decides to play as Androids at the beginning as they would not be very advanced (think Android 8). Main characters will be playable, however, we have previously decided that a character must be 7 years old to be playable. We will have the information on how old each character is at the current place in our story so that players can easily see who is or is not available to use. Time will advance, though there will not be huge time jumps. Instead after Sagas and main story plots we will determine how much time would have passed during that story and advance our RPGs current year.


The story has not been decided on, however, we do know that Frieza isn't going to suddenly change his mind about his hatred for the Saiyans and they are currently enslaved too him. At this point in time the Saiyans pillage plants for Frieza and clear any and all inhabitants so that Frieza may sell the planet to the highest bidder. We will have to determine where we want to take the story from there. While we do not need to adhere strictly to the current story we cannot make wildly huge changes that wouldn't make sense. If our story deviates from canon, it should mainly be at the hands of our players through their actions in the Sagas/Story events.


Note: Everything that happened in the Canon History of Dragon Ball prior to the year 736 still happened.

UPDATE
- Timeline page created.

I pretty much just pulled information from the Dragon Ball Wikia time line. I omitted any character births except the Kaioshins. I also omitted history that only appeared in filler episodes. I omitted the Budokai Tenkaichi tournament dates as well. Lastly, I omitted any history that was not relevant or cound not be turned into future Storyline or DM events. As usual, feel free to make suggestions if you think something should be re-worded, added, changed, corrected, removed, etc.

The Story
I really want to get the Story page done today. It should be a pretty small page, so I really just want to get it out of the way. Given that we are pretty much canon right now, I would assume the story will focus on Frieza and his misgivings towards the Saiyan race. Basically, I can just do a write-up of Frieza finding the Saiyans putting them to work and how over time he's begun to mistrust them do to their rapid advancement in power.

I was waiting on some replies first to make sure we were good with the basis of the story. I'll take that as a yes though and get the page done now.

UPDATE
Page is up!

Will be updating the Story/Timeline to the beginning of DBZ. Everything that happened in canon prior to the exact date I choose, still happened.

However, I will add a non-DBZ character as the initial bad guy and also have a way that Planet Vegeta and the Saiyan race was wished back or maybe I'll make some alterations to the time line to where it was never destroyed. Regardless, the story/timeline will make sense so that all races and characters are play
