==Summary==
Bardock is a low-class Saiyan warrior, the mate of Gine, and the father of Raditz and Kakarot. A devoted and loyal warrior despite his low class, he has a shred of humanity somewhere hidden deep inside his Saiyan Heart, and with the rumors of the Super Saiyan and Super Saiyan God, he grows ever closer to finding Frieza's plans to destroy the Saiyans.

Standard Equipment: His Scouter.
Intelligence: Gifted (Despite being a mere low-class warrior, Bardock is an incredibly skilled warrior. He stood as one of the Saiyans best in his time, easily taking over planets alongside his crew, an activity that he took great pride and enjoyment from. Bardock and his team were capable of taking over Planet Cereal easily. He was noted by Gas to be above the Low-Class, implying great combat capability. Singlehandedly made it through a battalion of Cerealians, regarded as powerful and skilled snipers, Was able to swiftly create a plan to trick the Heeters, though didn't anticipate their level of cruelty. Figured out Frieza's plan to wipe out the Saiyans, and was intelligent enough to evade being monitored by Scouters in conversation. Easily took on several of Frieza's soldiers at once, dodging their attacks and dispatching of them while continuing to fly towards a spaceship)
Weaknesses: Though it is possible that Bardock trained the weakness away, he can become weakened and disoriented if his tail is grabbed or removed. He needs a moon in order to transform and cannot control himself as a Great Ape.
Notable Attacks/Techniques:
Ki: The martial artist's fighting power and life force, a tangible energy derived from the user's vigor, courage, and mind. It can be used in several ways, such as to surpass the limits of one's body to greatly increase in strength, and it can be fired as blasts of energy or used to create defensive barriers. Along with his Saiyan blood, Ki acts as the source of Bardock's incredible power and abilities.
*Riot Javelin: Bardock's signature attack, in which he gathers his ki into the shape of a sphere and launches it at his opponent.
Saiyan Physiology: The physiology of a Saiyan, an aggressive warrior race of conquerors. Saiyans have the natural ability to control ki and fly. In addition, while his lifespan is comparable to a human's, Bardock will remain at his peak strength for much longer. One of the most powerful abilities of a Saiyan is their ability to grow stronger and stronger through combat, allowing Bardock to constantly push his own limits during a fight and rise to higher and higher peaks in power. This ability grants a substantial boost in power when Bardock is badly injured, allowing him to reach a new level of power once he recovers. 
*Great Ape: When exposed to the full moon's light, as long as he still has his tail, Bardock will transform into the Great Ape, a massive, gigantic monkey with far greater power.
**Limits Broken: The state Bardock achieved in a life and death battle against Gas, it is the outcome of the inevitable when a Saiyan fights in battle, the Breaking of Limits and assuming a level of power unheard of to them at the time.
Note: Bardock's Toei iteration from "Father of Goku" and "Episode of Bardock" is separated into a different profile. This one is made from the canonical iteration from Dragon Ball Super: Broly (and by extension, Dragon Ball Minus as well as the Dragon Ball Super Manga), and thus any data Toei Bardock has does not apply to DBS Bardock, and vice versa.
