Mr. Satan/Biography

==Biography==
===Background===
When Mark was young, he attended a fighting dojo called "Satan Castle." Through a combination of considerable power and good luck (his rival fighting opponent would get food poisoning, for instance), he quickly became world champion and was called "Mr. Satan" after the name of his dojo. One day while on tour at a bar in South City, Satan and his master made the mistake of making fun of Mercenary Tao's hairstyle. As a result, Mr. Satan was heavily injured while his master was killed. From then on, Mr. Satan solemnly swore never to fight anyone whose true identity he did not know, or anyone who seemed crazy strong.Saikyō Jump #6, 2014
His daughter Videl was born in Age 756. His wife Miguel died unknown circumstances leaving Mr. Satan and Videl as the only two left in their family, though they had many servants supporting them. Mr. Satan is very protective of his daughter, especially in respect to boys, only allowing her to have a boyfriend if he was stronger than him.
In anime-exclusive flashbacks of the previous 24th World Martial Arts Tournament, Mr. Satan is briefly seen fighting Spopovich (when he was human) in the tournament's first-round match. It is here that one can easily see Mr. Satan's capabilities in comparison to that of other "normal" martial artists. He easily defeats Spopovich and goes on to fight and defeat Jewel in that tournament's final match, winning the 24th World Martial Arts Tournament. None of the Dragon Team fought in this tournament, allowing Mr. Satan to win it easily and fairly.
===Dragon Ball Z===
====Cell Saga====
After hearing Perfect Cell's announcement of the Cell Games, Mr. Satan announces to the world that he will enter the tournament and defeat Cell. A few days before the games begin, Mr. Satan pleases a huge crowd of fans by punching through one of four buses he had dragged in by himself (with the Dragon Team, watching this on TV, expressing that such an action he did was "sad") and ripping a large book in half. Satan was actually rich at this point, so the car he rode in to the Cell Games Arena had a chauffeur."Dragon Ball Q&A" section, Dragon Ball Full Color Androids Saga volume 5, 2014 He was apparently selling some kind of "Satan goods", and they were quite profitable. At ringside, Goku tries several times to warn Mr. Satan against confronting Cell, but the World Champion believes he is more than equal to the task of taking down the deadly bio-android. Throughout the Cell Games, Mr. Satan is convinced that Cell is a mere trickster, having never seen ki attacks before and believing them to be mere light shows. Mr. Satan (and his top students Caroni and Pirozhki as well, in the anime) face Perfect Cell and lose quickly in embarrassing fashion. The ZTV reporter on-hand to chronicle the Cell Games repeatedly ridicules Goku and the other Z Fighters, firmly believing (along with most of the world) that Mr. Satan is the only one who stands a chance of triumphing over Cell.
After showing off his strength by destroying fourteen out of fifteen tiles, Mr. Satan attacks Cell with his Dynamite Kick, but Cell launches him from the ring with a single effortless flick of his hand, at which point Goku steps in and the tournament commences. Claiming that he simply slipped out of the ring, Mr. Satan (and his pupils) sit out the rest of the Cell Games, watching Goku, and subsequently Gohan, fight Perfect Cell. Mr. Satan is repeatedly questioned by Jimmy Firecracker of the television crew about returning to the ring to face Cell again, but each time the World Martial Arts Champion insists he is suffering from agonizing stomach pains that are preventing him from a rematch.
Although Mr. Satan cowers in fear for much of the time, he does play a pivotal role in Gohan's eventual victory over Cell. After Cell destroys Android 16's body, the severed head of 16 lands near the area where Mr. Satan and the TV crew are hiding. The still functioning head of 16 implores them to carry him over to Gohan. Putting aside his fear (and looking to save face in front of the news crew), Mr. Satan agrees to bring the head of Android 16 to Gohan. This sets into motion the sequence of events ultimately responsible for unleashing Gohan's hidden power.
Near the end of the Cell Game, the television equipment is destroyed and the conclusion, in which Gohan (with help from Vegeta) finally destroys Cell with a Kamehameha Wave, is not broadcast to the global audience. The television crew, having sought shelter from the devastating ki attacks, does not witness Cell's demise.
After the Z Fighters depart, Mr. Satan convinces Jimmy and everyone else that Gohan was beaten and that he defeated Cell single-handedly with a vicious karate chop. Despite some initial skepticism at these claims, the gullible masses are quickly convinced that Mr. Satan indeed defeated Cell and he becomes the world's new hero and hottest celebrity.
====World Tournament Saga====
Seven years after Cell's defeat, Mr. Satan has become increasingly rich and famous. Videl bitterly relates to Gohan that he has become a womanizer who uses his fame as a champion to sleep around with woman after woman. She also confides in Gohan that her father, once an accomplished martial artist, is now living solely off his reputation and no longer keeps up with his training. Satan is shown in several moments, including for a few seconds training his pupils, and cowering away in his home to avoid a gang of thugs, even as they take advantage in a fight against his daughter. Videl initially scoffs at any suggestion that her father is not all that he claims to be though, over time, she comes to see the truth and wishes somebody would beat him at the next World Martial Arts Tournament so that Satan could be taught a lesson in humility and respect.
As reigning World Champion, Mr. Satan is automatically entered into the World Martial Arts Tournament (aka: Strongest Under the Heavens) and is dismayed to see the Super Saiyans (The "Golden Fighters") there, remembering them from the Cell Games. Satan rides out the tournament in fear of being exposed as a fraud, knowing full well that he does not stand a chance against Goku and his friends. After the Junior Division Final in which Trunks defeats Goten, Mr. Satan is set to fight an exhibition match with Trunks. Satan asks Trunks to only lightly tap him on his face, however by even a light tap, Trunks knocks him out of the ring. The audience believes it was all for show and that Mr. Satan let the Junior Champ win (though he was knocked against a wall and brutally injured his nose and is seen grieving over the pain in private shortly afterward).
After the World Martial Arts Tournament was interrupted by Spopovich and Yamu's attacking Gohan, Mr. Satan is set to fight in a Battle Royal against Android 18, Killa, Jewel, and Mighty Mask. Soon, Killa and Jewel are eliminated, and Android 18 reveals Mighty Mask's true identity (Trunks and Goten). Android 18, who does not want the fame of winning, agrees to throw the final if Satan pays her 20,000,000 Zeni (double the prize money).
At one point in an anime-exclusive filler, he foolishly tries to fly, only to land on and hurt his weak point: his nose (and later tries to cover up his behavior to a bunch of fangirls walking in on him). Later, when Vegeta (now a Majin) attacks the crowd in order for Goku to fight him, Mr. Satan taunts Vegeta, but becomes terrified when Vegeta tells him to keep quiet. After this, Babidi teleports Vegeta, Goku and the others to the desert. Another one point in another anime-exclusive filler, Mr. Satan was in the shower room shortly after his "win" against Android 18, thinking about what had happened in regard to most of the audience being blown away by Vegeta. However, some Paparazzi burst in and started questioning him about his win against Android 18, and he claims to "not hide anything from the fans", and while laughing, accidentally drops his towel in front of everyone, causing the Paparazzis to take pictures of the exposure.
====Majin Buu Saga====
After Majin Buu kills Babidi and starts terrorizing the Earth, Mr. Satan is sent to his house to kill the monster. Mr. Satan tried to do so by giving Buu poisonous chocolates and a bomb disguised as a video game. These attempts prove so ineffectual that Buu does not even register them as murderous in nature. Buu then announced intentions to turn Mr. Satan into chocolate and eat him but the cunning Satan talks his way out of it. He then tricks Majin Buu into posing for a photo, having him lie on his belly while Satan strikes a pose, and then becomes Majin Buu's servant. While Mr. Satan plans to use a super explosive to try and kill Majin Buu, Majin Buu returns early from a killing spree with a hurt puppy, showing signs of good in him. Mr. Satan brings this good to the surface by helping Majin Buu heal the puppy and convincing him kindly that killing is wrong. Mr. Satan and Majin Buu then form a true friendship and name the puppy Bee.
Their happiness is short lived when Bee is shot (by a bullet) and Buu along with Mr. Satan, are attacked by two evil humans, the killer thug Van Zant and his cohort Smitty (both unnamed in the original Japanese, in which Smitty refers to Van Zant as "Young Master"), with rocket launchers. Mr. Satan bravely stands against them, hitting Smitty with a rock and confronting the ringleader (Van Zant) who is reaching for his weapon. Mr. Satan fearlessly dares the thug to try it (stating "Go ahead, pick it up!"). The thug then grabs his weapon, but is immediately assaulted by Mr. Satan (who shouts, "Now It's Your Turn!"), kicking the weapon out of the thug's hands and delivers a furious beating on him for cold-bloodedly shooting Bee (and attempting to kill both him and Buu). He ends the assault with a final kick, sending the punk tumbling off the cliff (Van Zant survives, however), defeating him. After this, a triumphant Mr. Satan calls Van Zant a "Heartless Monster!", and finally proves himself to be a true "hero" (it should be noted that this is one of the few fights where Mr. Satan "completely" dominates his opponent; it also shows that given the right motivation; Mr. Satan is capable of defeating even "armed" opponents when angered).
Majin Buu then heals Bee's wound (saving its life) and all is well (for the moment). Later while Mr. Satan is preparing dinner, he is confronted by Van Zant who holds him at gun point, and he prepares to kill "The World's Hero". Mr. Satan tries to use high-speed movement to evade & attack him, but is shot in cold blood, leading to the emergence of the greater evil within Majin Buu.
After Mr. Satan is shot by Van Zant, Majin Buu is torn between the promise he made and the anger he holds. He manages to heal Mr. Satan but loses control and tells him to flee before it is too late. He then involuntarily expels the bulk of his power in the form of an evil, sickly antithesis of himself, which kills Van Zant mercilessly by blasting him, along with a cluster of mountains. After being pummeled badly by the Evil Buu, Good Buu, in an act of desperation, attempts to turn the Evil Buu into chocolate, however, Evil Buu reverses the attack by blowing the beam back at Good Buu and devours him, transforming into Super Buu. Super Buu then brutally kills Smitty (going into his mouth and causing him to expand until he violently explodes), while Mr. Satan and Bee are forced to watch in horror.
Super Buu is almost pure evil, but he still acknowledges Mr. Satan to a degree strong enough that he refuses to harm him, since he possesses the memories of Majin Buu. Obvious examples are as follows:
#When Super Buu looks down at Mr. Satan, he could have easily killed him, but instead, he merely spoke his name and left to go up to the Guardian's lookout.
#When the new Super Buu pulls off his Human Extinction Attack, Mr. Satan is one of the three Earthlings present on the ground to survive (the others being Tien Shinhan and Chiaotzu), not because he is skilled enough to avoid it, but because Super Buu simply does not target him.
#Mr. Satan's daughter, Videl, also causes Super Buu to make an agreement allowing Gotenks an hour to prepare for fighting, as Piccolo tells Super Buu that Videl is Mr. Satan's daughter. Super Buu nearly weeps after hearing this, as he had been about to kill Videl at the time. However, this doesn't stop him from turning Videl into candy and eating her after escaping the Hyperbolic Time Chamber.
#Mr. Satan breaks down in tears after hearing that Videl is killed by Super Buu and angrily berates Gohan for not saving her, despite that Gohan explained that he wasn't there when Super Buu killed everybody on the lookout.
#Mr. Satan yells at Super Buu, saying that Super Buu has broken his promise to not kill anybody.
During the battle against Super Buu, Mr. Satan is angered to the point that he screams "I hereby terminate our friendship, Majin Buu!" and gets out a 45-Caliber gun. In one hilarious moment, when Super Buu fires a Finger Beam to kill Dende, Mr. Satan shoots at it and it explodes, when in reality Tien intervened and countered it with his Tri-Beam technique. When Super Buu prepares another one (and a much more powerful one, one which Tien had no method of nullifying), Mr. Satan once again starts shooting at Super Buu, and Super Buu is sliced in half, when in reality Goku returned and fired a Destructo Disc at him.
Mr. Satan, along with Dende and Bee, then sits out the rest of the battle and sees Vegito pound Super Buu around. When Super Buu absorbs Vegito, Mr. Satan and Dende tail him around the city as he eats countless cakes and sweets. Ultimately, when Super Buu reverts to Kid Buu, Satan decides to attempt to fight him, but Dende advises him otherwise. Ultimately, when Kid Buu finally succeeds in destroying the Earth, Mr. Satan, Dende and Bee are rescued by Goku, Vegeta and Kibito Kai at the last minute via Kai Kai to the Sacred World of the Kai. At first, Satan believes it all to be a dream, but changes his mind when he is unable to fly, and also when Kid Buu shows up and resumes the battle against Goku and Vegeta.
During the battle, Mr. Satan becomes angered to the point that he challenges Kid Buu to a futile duel (causing a recovering Goku to say, "Please, not him! What did I ever do to deserve this?!"). Mr. Satan punches and kicks Kid Buu rapidly, but these futile efforts do not even faze the Majin. Just when Kid Buu is about to kill Mr. Satan, he hesitates, and starts to scream loudly, holding his head in agony, and then spits out an unconscious Good Buu, who turned out to be what was stopping Kid Buu from harming Mr. Satan. Believing Good Buu to have sacrificed himself to save him one last time, Mr. Satan, with tears dripping from his eyes, challenges Kid Buu with all his might. Just as Kid Buu is about to finish him, Good Buu intervenes and fights Kid Buu alone while Mr. Satan cheers him on.
Mr. Satan also participates in convincing the people of the newly restored Earth to give their energy to Goku's Super Spirit Bomb, since they refused to listen to Vegeta and Goku (except for Goku and Vegeta's friends and family, of course). He becomes genuinely angry that the people of Earth were refusing to believe and help the one chance they had that would save them from Kid Buu once and for all. The people end up believing they were giving their energies to him when instead, it supplies to the Spirit Bomb making it a lot bigger than before, but Kid Buu cunningly stands beside Vegeta's battered body.
When Goku hesitates to throw the Spirit Bomb at Kid Buu, Good Buu holds Kid Buu down while Mr. Satan carries Vegeta's limp body aside, ordering Goku to fire. This feat earns him respect from Goku who called him a real hero. The Super Spirit Bomb destroys Kid Buu after Goku goes Super Saiyan. He then pleas to Dende to heal the battered Good Buu, despite the protests of Vegeta. However, Mr. Satan promises to ensure Buu does not turn evil and Goku allows this. Mr. Satan makes it back to Earth with Goku, Vegeta, Dende and Bee. He is reunited with his revived daughter who he happily embraces. He is then accepted as two new Z Warriors, and has Bee and Good Buu live with him, now named Mr. Buu. With Buu on his side, Mr. Satan now had power in a way after making him his bodyguard.
Mr. Satan is seen once again after a few days, having been invited to a great party at Capsule Corporation, where he drinks and plays cards with Yamcha and Master Roshi. After spending time on the sidelines watching with Dende, he also seems to have formed a friendship with him, asking about Dende's job as Guardian of Earth. He also seems to forget his earlier ambitions and attempts to learn how to fly, which means he never mastered it.

Mr. Satan later goes to see Vegeta to offer him his reward for saving the world from Majin Buu, but Vegeta declines the prize money because he already has enough. He then finds Goku, because of Chi-Chi, and offers to give him 100 million zeni for defeating Majin Buu. First Goku declines the money then takes it because Goten tells Goku if he gave Chi-Chi the money he could train with King Kai. In return for Goku taking the money, Mr. Satan doesn't want anyone to know about the offer. On August 18, Mr. Satan attends Bulma's birthday party on the cruise ship. He prevents Buu from eating all of the food before the party started.
Mr. Satan attends Bulma's birthday party. While he's there, he usually keeps Buu fed so he doesn't get angry. Mr. Satan is eating pudding with Majin Buu when Beerus arrives.

Goku uses the Dragon Balls to ask Shenron how to unlock Super Saiyan God. After completing the ritual for Super Saiyan God, Goku and Beerus start their battle. As Goku and Beerus get higher into the sky and into space, most of the attendees of Bulma's birthday party went with Bulma and into her spaceship but Mr. Satan remained on the ship. Mr. Satan is contacted by Jimmy Firecracker from ZTV to ask him to help from the rifts Goku and Beerus are causing throughout the universe. Mr. Satan says that he is at a secret birthday party to capture criminals as a cover up. He immediately hangs up and calls Gohan and tells him that he needs to save Videl, but he is falling from the sky in Bulma's spaceship due to Goku and Beerus. The spaceship is above Mr. Satan as it is falling, and Mr. Satan is saved by Whis. Mr. Satan starts to watch the battle between Goku and Beerus from Whis's scepter.
Mr. Satan gets concerned of the fight between Goku and Beerus because of Videl's safety. He asks Whis to stop the battle, but Whis stresses that he can't because of the power that was being exerted. Mr. Satan tries to bribe him by giving him a free pass of eating food throughout the city, but he turns it down. Because of a shining from the sky (due to a blast collision in space), Mr. Satan decides to protect Videl by having himself open in front of her. After their blasts' collision, Mr. Satan thinks his love is what helped saved the Earth. Moments later, Mr. Satan gets a call from Miss Piiza. She tells him that they were overloaded with calls for him. He tells her to get him a press conference ready in a dome for saving the Earth. Goku is defeated and Beerus is on Earth getting ready to destroy it. Mr. Satan gets another call from Piiza. She tells him that the reporters couldn't wait for a press conference and went to his location. Beerus falls asleep in his attempt to destroy the Earth and is taken home by Whis.
====Golden Frieza Saga====
After the battle with Beerus, Mr. Satan is believed by many humans to have defeated him. He appears at a press conference and is interviewed. They ask him who it was that attacked the Earth, and he says it was a God of Destruction. Mr. Satan does not correctly remember Beerus' name, so he tells the reporters that the God of Destruction was named "Beavis". He also says that he defeated Beebus in Super Saiyan (Satan thinks it's the Super Saiyan God form). During the conference, a spaceship lands. Cat-like humanoids emerge from the spacecraft and say that they are ambassadors of the Snackian people. They believe that Mr. Satan has defeated Beerus, and so, they want to thank him. A Snackian warrior called Galbee comes out of the spaceship and tells the ambassadors that they should test Mr. Satan's power to see if he really was the one who defeated Beerus. The ambassadors decide that they will prepare an arena so that Galbee and Mr. Satan can fight. Mr. Satan is scared by Galbee's appearance, and knows he cannot win against him, so he fakes a stomach problem and hides in the bathroom.
He desperately tries to call Gohan to fight for him in his place, but he ignores his cell phone, and is busy cooking for Videl. He also tries to call Vegeta, but he is also not available, and is training in a wasteland. Eventually, he goes to the arena, reluctantly, and agrees to fight Galbee. Goku flew into Satan City and saw the match happening. He wished Mr. Satan luck, but he did not fight Galbee, like Mr. Satan wanted him to because Goku saw Chi-Chi nearby, who noticed him. He soon flew away, dragging a tractor he was carrying along with him. This supposed feat impressed Galbee who wished to see Mr. Satan fight, with the latter running for most of the match and doing nothing but dodging. He is hesitant and decides he must charge Galbee, so he punches him, and his punch does nothing. Just when Galbee is about to punch him, he sees Bee, and is terrified. Galbee runs back into the spaceship, and the other Snackians, who are also afraid of dogs, follow. The Snackians then leave Earth.
Six months later, Pan is born, and Mr. Satan makes funny faces at Pan to make her laugh, and then he plays with her and Gohan, dressed as the Great Saiyaman, and tossed Pan around while doing so, until Chi-Chi interrupted and yelled at them. Mr. Satan along with Gohan, wanted Pan to be a martial artist with tons of successors but she did not want another warrior in the family, and she threw him and Gohan out for not trusting them with Pan and Mr. Satan begs Goku and Krillin to convince Chi-Chi to change her mind and eventually Bulma and Videl do it and Gohan and Mr. Satan are allowed back in the house again.
While Goku and his friends were fighting Frieza, Mr. Satan and Buu were taking a nap in their mansion when they were unaware of the Earth exploding, due to Frieza blowing it up.

===Bojack Unbound===
Taking place after the Cell Games, millionaire X.S. Cash organizes an Intergalactic World Tournament as a birthday present for his only son Monty, supposed to feature fighters representing the four corners of the galaxy (in reality, the 4 fighters are actually the pupils of Mr. Satan; made-up to look like aliens). The winner of the said tournament is to win a prize of 100,000,000 Zeni and get a chance to fight Mr. Satan. Mr. Satan looks forward to the tournament at first, but chickens out when he sees Gohan and Future Trunks (the "Golden Fighters") participating. He tries to get out having to fight by sitting on the toilet with a fake stomach ache. During the finals it is discovered that Bojack and his henchmen have killed Mr. Satan's pupils (the fake galaxy warriors) and are posing as them. Mr. Satan is forced to face Bojack (to protect his public image) and actually ends up accidentally saving Gohan from the galaxy soldiers Psychic Thread energy draining technique, as his shuttle-car (a vehicle used to travel to the staging area) flies wildly through the area, but his shuttle-car is blasted by an angry Bojack and is destroyed, leaving Mr. Satan who comically falls to the ground, creating a man-sized crater (luckily he survives). Shortly thereafter, Bojack tells Gohan that, for the latter's sake, he hopes that the champion was not Gohan's cavalry, causing the boy to attack the pirate in a rage. Due to the cameras having been damaged during the fight, the audience is unable to see the tournament's climax, and Mr. Satan is once again awarded Gohan's credit for defeating Bojack. In order to keep up his public image, Mr. Satan plays along.
The character is still called Mr. Satan in the UK dub of the movie, while he is named Hercule in the UK anime; this is because of it being dubbed by a Dutch company that only dubbed the movies and not the episodes.

If not, Jaguar would reveal to the world Mr. Satan's bed wetting secret from when he was young, and from when they were friends. Android 18, Trunks, Goten, and Krillin follow Mr. Satan to Mei Queen Castle, and defeat the Bio-Warriors pretending to be Mr. Satan's students. That is, until Bio-Broly, a clone of the late Legendary Super Saiyan Broly, is activated and tries to kill Satan. In the end, after Bio-Broly is killed, Satan ends up stranded in the water, and the greedy Android 18 refuses to save him unless he pays her an extra 80,000,000 Zeni. Fuming, he swims off, excusing his departure as claiming he needed to go on an appointment.
He is not referred to as "Mr. Satan" in this movie, however, but either "Hercule" or plain "Satan". It is subtly implied in this movie that Mr. Satan had a bad case of incontinence when he was a child, as Men-Men's tactic of persuading Mr. Satan to come to Jaguar's castle involved blackmail (that is, threatening to reveal to the press that Mr. Satan wet his bed at summer camp).
===Fusion Reborn===
When the dead are resurrected, Mr. Satan is only seen for a few seconds, beating up walking skeletons and zombies (this is perhaps the only fight against a threatening force to the Earth where Mr. Satan actually succeeds at winning, he even says "Finally an adversary I can really beat! I need to do this where someone can see me!"). He then marches off with skeletons and zombies behind him, presumably to attract an audience to demonstrate that he can in fact beat adversaries due to his latter line as he marches.
===Battle of Gods===
Four years after Kid Buu's defeat, Mr. Satan attends Bulma's birthday party with Majin Buu at Capsule Corporation. At one point, Mr. Satan asks Dr. Brief to get him a drink, but he doesn't recognize who he is. Ox-King and Chi-Chi tells him that he's Bulma's father and the richest guy in the world. Mr. Satan is sorry for the confusion and gets Dr. Brief a Cola for his apologies. When Beerus and Whis arrive and are hanging out at Bulma's party, Mr. Satan is drunk and challenges Beerus to a fight. However, he passes out because he's too drunk.
Later, Beerus gets angry because of Majin Buu not sharing pudding. Goku shows up and summons Shenron for help to make a Super Saiyan God. The process needs six pure-blooded Saiyans. Before they knew of the sixth, Mr. Satan thought that he was needed for the ritual, but Videl reveals that she's pregnant. The Super Saiyan God is created so Goku and Beerus have their battle. Mr. Satan watches the match from Bulma's aircraft. Beerus wins in the end but doesn't destroy Earth, so he returns home.

===The Return of Son Goku and Friends!===
Two years after the defeat of Kid Buu, Mr. Satan's new hotel is finishing so he holds a banquet at the opening of the hotel to celebrate their victory over Kid Buu.
===Dragon Ball Online===
In the background story of the computer game Dragon Ball Online, Mr. Satan announces his retirement from the world of martial arts in Age 793. His official reason for retiring is to give the next generation a chance. However, the truth is that it became impossible for him to continue rigging the tournament without his partner Mr. Buu. Mr. Satan then starts the Telecommunicated Satan-style Martial Arts Course in an attempt to make money. As the videos were just overpriced rip-offs that featured flashy fight scenes enhanced through special effects, customer claims that the Telecommunicated Satan-style Martial Arts Course is worthless rapidly spread. Disgruntled costumers flood Satan House in Age 794, prompting Pan to subdue them. The event becomes a big scandal, and the Telecommunicated Satan-style Martial Arts Course is then renamed the Pan Fighting Network, with Pan as the instructor.
Mr. Satan ends up being very active as a movie star. Appearing in all sorts of films, he plays the role of various types of characters in everything from romance films to action flicks. The film "Satan Legend" starring Mr. Satan is released in Age 796. It is a refreshing movie but did not do well in at the box office. Nevertheless, it solicited a cult-like popularity among different parts of the world.
When Mr. Satan dies in Age 820, the King of Earth honors him with a national funeral.Dragon Ball Online, 2010 His death in Age 820 causes the remnants of the Frieza Force lead by Frieza's Guard Troops (who presumably took control of its surviving forces after the deaths of Sorbet and the revived Frieza during Frieza's revenge in Age 779), to invade Earth later that same year as they were fooled by Mr. Satan's reputation and believed he was the one responsible for Frieza's death (presumably Frieza's second death in Age 779), which caused them to avoid attacking Earth while he was still alive, thus Mr. Satan's overblown reputation ended up preventing an a third invasion of the Earth by the Frieza Force (as the first two lead by Frieza himself in his attempts at revenge) for at least 41 years (the time period in between Age 779 and Age 820) which serves as another example of Mr. Satan's ability to delude others.
===Xenoverse===
;Cell Games Saga

However his personality is altered by this new state, causes him to lash out in anger against the Future Warrior for their interference during his match with Cell, while ignoring Cell completely. In his new state, Dark Mr. Satan proves to actually be a challenge for the Future Warrior. However the Warrior manages to overpower Mr. Satan, knocking him down.

This forces the Future Warrior to beat Dark Mr. Satan into unconsciousness to remove him from Towa's influence. Ultimately the Future Warrior is able to restore the timeline (albeit with some minor alterations due to Towa and Mira's meddling) and Gohan kills Cell with the Father-Son Kamehameha, which allows Mr. Satan to take the credit for Cell's defeat like in the original timeline.

In this timeline Mr. Satan is looking for a bodyguard and the Future Warrior can offer to take the job but Mr. Satan wants to test them by having them perform various tasks paying them each time they accomplish said task though he pays extra if they are a fellow Earthling. The amount of money increases each time they are completed though eventually it levels out once all the main tasks are completed and replaced by complete any 10 quests challenge of which they are awarded the same amount. Interestingly it is impossible to actually become Mr. Satan's bodyguard as he will state that they should have completed the challenge faster (however he says this regardless as to have fast they completed his challenge). The Future Warrior is asked to investigate it along with the other rifts.
Several Time Patrollers including Ninja Murasaki of the Murasaki Brothers are also investigating the rift as well. A female Majin Time Patroller named Nanmai mentions she heard about Mr. Satan's role in Majin Buu turning good and notes if it weren't for Mr. Satan she would never been born as Good Buu is the progenitor of the Majin Race.
Mr. Satan's challenges are optional as the Saiya Squad quests involving Great Saiyaman, Great Saiyaman 2, & Jaco are the ones that are required.

The Saiya Squad suggest they need something to stand out more. The warrior must than speck to Jaco and Mr. Satan for ideas. Jaco suggests a weapon, while Mr. Satan suggests some kind of vehicle.

Thus allows them to take part in Satan House Quest: "Earthling Awakening" which unlocks the Power Pole Pro awoken skill which allows them to utilize the Flying Nimbus and Power Pole as a "transformation". After completing the Saiya Squad quests, Mr. Satan will tell them about a guy with spiky hair wearing a mask who left a strange egg on his property and thinks they would be best suited to deal with it. Chronoa reveals that the egg is an attempt by Towa to artificially replicate Tokitoki's Eggs which is impossible resulting in several wearer Distorted Time Eggs which alone have the power to create large stable Rifts in Time like the ones around Majin Buu's House and Satan House. After all the eggs are collected, Chronoa allows the Satan House rift and other rifts remain as they are stable and she considers removing them a hassle.

===Dragon Ball Legends===
In Dragon Ball Legends, Hercule from before the Cell Games is among those who find themselves participating in the Tournament of Time in Age 780 of the main timeline. 
Under the influence of the Dark Ki, Dr. Gero uses genes collected from various tournament participants to create another incarnation of the Bio-Android Cell, New Cell who with the assistance of Dabura (working on behalf of the Organization of Babidi) is able to absorb Android 17 and Android 18, achieving his Perfect Form. At Dabura's insistence, New Cell decides to host his own incarnation of the Cell Games, the Super Cell Games. Announcing his existence to the world like the original Cell, New Cell dares the Tournament of Time participants to band together to take him on as the Super Cell Games is a team battle royale due to the number of fighters participating in the Tournament of Time. 
Among those that step up to face New Cell, is Hercule apparently emboldened by his present counterpart's historic record as the one who defeated Cell during the Cell Games, ironically fooled by his counterpart's claims along with his own hubris. Interestingly, the Pre-Cell Games Yamcha when asking the post-Cell Games Gohan (Youth) who actually won the Cell Games, mentions he heard that Hercule was the one who defeated Cell, though is doubtful of its validity. 
Hercule finds most of those participating in the Super Cell Games demonstrate the same lack of respect that his counterpart dealt with from the Dragon Team during the original Cell Games. He ends up getting into a fight with Shallot and his allies, after Shallot shows concern for Hercule due to his lack of strength. However Hercule finds himself out matched by the other participants. However like his counterpart's heroic actions involving Android 16's head during the original Cell Games, Hercule ends up aiding the alliance between Bardock (Bardock - The Father of Goku), Team Beerus (Shallot & Android 16), Resistance faction (Zahha, Cabba, & Gohan), and Pre-Cell Games Dragon Team (Krillin, Tien, & Yamcha) in defeating New Cell, by carrying the exhausted Zahha to Shallot so he could use his magic to heal him, allowing Super Saiyan 2 Shallot & SSJ2 Gohan (Youth) to ultimately defeat and destroy the villain. 
However unbeknownst to Hercule, Zahha was actually the Mastermind behind the Tournament of Time who had used the Dark Ki to manipulate Babidi and Dr. Gero, as well as being secretly responsible for New Cell's creation which was simply a ploy to acquire Kili from the Super Cell Games to use to power the Omnificence Crystal, a failed prototype Super Dragon Ball which Zahha was trying to perfect using Shallot and his twin brother Giblet as vessels to complete it so Zahha can achieve his ultimate goal of destroying Universe 7 apparently out of revenge towards the gods of the Multiverse and their ruler, the Omni-King Zeno.
===Kakarot===
As early as the Saiyan Saga, Kid Gohan can visit Orange City where he can encounter a couple NPCs that mention an up-and-coming martial artist named Mark indicating that before he became world famous, Mr. Satan used his real name before adopting the stage name that the city would later be renamed after following the defeat of Cell.
However, by the time of the Intermission in Age 763 that takes place after the Frieza Saga, is when he started using the stage name Mr. Satan (Mr. Satan's name is not censored in Kakarot).
