## Summary

**Freela** (Also known as **Freeza** or **Fei Ley**) was the prince and the emperor of the universe, who controlled his own imperial army and was feared for his ruthlessness and power. He is also the younger brother of Kuralla and also the one who destroyed the Planet Begeta and left a baby of Saiya People escape from the destruction.

## Appearance

In his first form, Freela is a short humanoid being with a large chestnut-shaped skull with two horns that protrude at near 45 degree angles. In his true form, Freela instead regresses, with his former form cracking and shattering like a shell, becoming a sleek and short, white lizard-like, almost harmless-looking creature; his horns and spikes disappear and his physique becomes streamlined.

## Personality

Freela is a sociopath, he enjoyed and laughed at the destruction caused by his energy ball that destroyed the entire Saiyas race, a Saiya Person who stands right at him and his own soldiers. Freela is also playful as he let Sangoku alive in their fight on Namek instead of killing him immediately, which allowed Goku to achieve his new power-up and kill Freela.

## Biography

Freela used to be the emperor of the universe, claimed himself as the strongest in the universe and invaded different celestial bodies in the galaxy. However, Freela was very afraid of the Saiya People because of their endless potential and the tale of the Legend of the Super Saiyas. Freela ended up destroying the Planet Begeta alongside the Saiya People. Bardock, a mere Saiya Person who couldn’t have a real fight against Freela’s weakest elite henchman, went to Freela all by himself to encounter Freela. Bardock threatened Freela that he would kill him and change the destiny while Freela was laughing at him and then created a giant energy ball destroying the unlucky Saiya Person and his home-world. Freela enjoyed the stellar-scale explosion that he made without knowing that he let a Saiya Person baby escape the planet before the explosion and the fact that, the legendary Super Saiyas and his father were still alive.

Freela is very powerful, even in his transformed state. In his first transformed state, he destroyed the entire Planet Begeta, along with Bardock and his own soldiers with one finger.
