:Name: Gaida
:Race: Namekian
:Gender: Technically without a gender, though like most/all Namekians, appears Male.
:Age: 14 (Namekians reach adulthood at 8).
:Aura color: Gaida's aura is a jade green color with a violet outline. When it develops electricity, it sparks about as a random assortment of the two colors often in unison.
:Appearance:

Gaida typically wears a bandana, brown shoes, and a blue martial arts gi with red trim (because you can't see all that well in the picture!).
Note: The actual image stretches the page, so I included the link instead. All rights and claims for the artwork go to its creator, ~ConceptCat of deviantart.com. I claim no ownership for its creation and design.
:Techniques:
As for miscellaneous techniques, they are as follows:
Regeneration: Like any other Namekian, Gaida has the power to regenerate a lost limb after fierce concentration and a great deal of pain. He often needs to find adequate time in a battle to do this, assuming it is required.
Basic Ki Techniques: Basic blasts, sensing power levels and hiding his own power level, etc.
Elasticity: The ability all Namekians possess of being able to stretch their limbs. Strategic fighters will use this ability to strike an opponent from a distance or otherwise assault them from range before or while closing in for a follow-up assault.
:Starting Planet: Earth.
:History:
Gaida was in fact born on New Namek fourteen years ago as a member of the race's Warrior Clan. Thus, it was expected for him as he grew to learn how to fight to protect his people and mainly to protect the Dragon Clan, those less able at combat who usually served as leaders with their magical prowess. However, fate had other plans. As the young Namekian grew, he just couldn't get a grasp on the fighting arts of his people. There were always mistakes in his stance or balance or strength, and quite frankly it was infuriating to train the young one at all. It was decided over time that he would just have to make do as a civilian to provide a pair of working hands for the village in which he lived, and it seemed that was all he was meant for among his people. However, one of the teachers saw his untapped potential; it was clear he was not one to pick up on anything in a group and needed special attention.
With that, Gaida was surprised to find the man knocking at his small hut one day with the man that looked over him, what humans might have called a ''father''. Of course this figure wanted to see Gaida succeed, so he agreed to personal one-on-one training sessions for him. The young Namekian still didn't pick up very much, but he was learning slowly but surely. A few years passed and Gaida was just a few years short of becoming an adult when one day while training out in the valleys smoke was seen rising from his village along with plumes of flame. The guardian and his student rushed back to find it decimated and the people slaughtered; there was no culprit in sight, however it was likely the work of the Demon Clan who had sparsely populated a cave as a hideout of sorts near the village.
Going into hiding and seeing his guardian's hut for the first time, Gaida noted he had been working on a small and cramped space pod that now seemed to be in working order. His guardian carefully explained they needed to leave in case the culprits returned, and since Gaida was still a child they could both fit. Wracked by having the man who watched over him now dead, Gaida agreed. He helped the older Namekian for several more days until the pod was in working order, but unfortunately it was too late. The assailants returned, passing back over the village on their way back to the small cave hideout. Without wasting any time the guardian opened the pod and threw his student inside before he could react, sealing it shut before inputting the coordinates of a place called Earth, where it was said powerful warriors had come long before to aid Old Namek. He launched the pod and Gaida blasted off into the sky alone and frightened; even more-so when a flash of aggressive light rapidly closed in on the pod.
Seeing the blur of his guardian leaping into action, he threw himself in front of the light to allow Gaida to escape. As he fell from the sky lifelessly with smoke rolling off of his body, Gaida couldn't help but scream in horror as the pod finally picked up speed and blasted him away out of New Namek's orbit. Truly alone for the first time in his life, all he could do was curl into a helpless little ball to wait until sleep arrived. Plagued by nightmares, it still wasn't enough to jar him awake. On the other hand, the crash certainly was. He didn't know how long he'd been sleeping as he awoke to the pod slamming into what he assumed was the place called Earth. He considered himself lucky the pod landed with the door facing up as he clambered out of the seat and immediately ran to a nearby stream for a drink of water.
Across the body of water he saw two pale-skinned beings sparring. With his mouth dropping in amazement he could only stare with awe as they clashed, and he decided to get a better look by floating over the ground and taking a seat on a large rock. When one of them received a powerful kick and went zooming straight toward it Gaida took off in actual flight to avoid getting hurt, and he'd caught the interest of the two beings. He sat and spoke with them a while explaining his past and how he learned to fly and learned the basics of Earthling life from the two, and finally they extended an offer to him; if he'd liked, he could come back to the Martial Arts School they learned at.
Knowing it was what his guardian would have wanted, he quickly obliged. Upon arrival the master took a quick and curious liking to the young Namekian and asked if he had a home or if he could fight. Explaining the situation with the two humans at his side, the master simply smiled to him and allowed him to stay, though he had to promise to put every fiber of his being into training day in and day out. Eternally grateful for a place to live, that was exactly what the Namekian did. Day after day he pushed himself to his absolute limits, and it was all different than before; he'd given up so early on his home planet, but here he had a drive and a cause. He wondered with a bit of grief if it took his old teacher dying to really spark what he needed to find success, but in time his old wounds began to close around these new people.
Gaida trained at the New Crane School for several years and even managed to keep up with the two young humans who had brought him there. He finally knew what his place would have felt like back on Namek, and soon took to being a regular goody-two-shoes; when he went to towns or cities he'd help in any way he could, and he began to enjoy living off of the land. He thanked his master for making him into what he was and promised he would try and visit regularly, but he wanted to go out and help and protect others with what he'd learned. At thirteen, he left the New Crane School to wander on his own while living off the land permanently.
It has been a year since he said his goodbyes and he's seen a decent amount of Earthling culture, but there will always be that snag in his mind that tells him he doesn't belong. Regardless, he tries to put as much good into the world as he can, as his deep phobia of returning to New Namek almost ensures he'll never see ''home'' again.

:Techniques:
- Bukujutsu: The ability of Flight, and the main technique Gaida learned from his guardian before he passed away on New Namek.
- Zanzoken: After-Image technique. The user moves so quickly they seem to simply shift from view and appear elsewhere, while leaving an illusion of themselves behind to distract their opponent.
- Arc Bomb: The first ever Ki technique Gaida developed for his own personal use with the aid of the students who found him. Gaida will extend his arm out to his side, palm open and up, and charge a powerful energy sphere that crackles with volatile energy. After the technique is ready he'll throw the beach ball-sized energy ball which will explode on contact with a surface or an opponent with great concussive force.
