Dende

Character from Dragon Ball by Akira Toriyama

A gentle Namekian child who became Earth's Guardian — the healer who restored the Dragon Balls and quietly keeps the planet's divine systems running while gods and Saiyans fight overhead.

Gentle, anxious, and empathetic — the opposite temperament of a warrior Namekian. Heals instinctively and can't stand watching suffering. As a child on Namek, was terrified but brave when it mattered. Grew into his Guardian role with quiet competence, maintaining the Lookout and Dragon Balls while deferring combat to the Z Fighters. Deeply grateful to Gohan and Krillin for saving him on Namek.

Appearance

Young Namekian, shorter than Piccolo, with softer features and a gentler expression. Wears Guardian robes — white with a red-lined cape, similar to Kami's. Antennae shorter than an adult Namekian's. Kind, worried eyes.

Also known as: Dende, Little Green, Guardian of Earth
