Chiaotzu
Chiaotzu is a Human who possesses a few different traits than most characters in the series, such as plain white skin and red cheeks.
Just like Krillin, Chiaotzu does not have a visible nose, and is quite short in height.
Chiaotzu was a student along with Tien of Master Shen, and he specializes in skills that involve telepathy and telekinesis.
He is first introduced near the end of the Fortuneteller Baba Saga in the anime.
Back when he was a Crane School student, he formed a rivalry with Turtle School student Krillin for a while in the 22nd World Martial Arts Tournament.
Along with Tien, he quickly switches sides after seeing the folly of his master's teachings, and becomes a trusted ally and Z Fighter.
He is a fairly quiet, but brave psychic martial artist who is willing to help out his friends whenever possible and is highly devoted to his training with Tien.
He will normally follow Tien every step of the way, but if he truly feels what he is doing is right, Chiaotzu will ignore Tien's rejections or even pleas in order to commit to the plan he has conjured up.
His outfit throughout the majority of the series consists of the entire Crane School uniform, unlike Tien who only wears the entire ensemble in his first appearances in Dragon Ball.
By the second half of the Vegeta Saga, however, he ditches the robe for a white tanktop.
In the Majin Buu Saga, just like Tien Shinhan, Chiaotzu wears a blue Hanfu (Han Chinese-style) robe with a white cloak and pants, and, though he wears a Mongolian-style hat in the manga, he keeps the Crane School cap in the anime.
In the video game Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2, Chiaotzu's history says that he is a member of a military family.
In the movie Dragon Ball: Mystical Adventure, Chiaotzu appears as the king of the Mifan Empire with Tien as his bodyguard.
In the film, Chiaotzu is manipulated by Shen, who he believes is helping him reunite with his "wife", Ran Ran, who is revealed after the climax to be Chiaotzu's beloved doll.
Although this is non-manga, at the end of the Frieza Saga, Chiaotzu is referred to as "Emperor Chiaotzu" by the narrator in the English anime.
This was absent in the original Japanese anime and manga, however.
Chiaotzu has demonstrated an inability to quickly solve basic addition problems or grasp some jokes.
Despite being quiet and powerful, he also has a childish nature; mocking Krillin for shortcomings that Chiaotzu himself has when they first meet.
Chiaotzu's Japanese name is a pun on the Chinese food jiaozi (called gyoza in Japanese), in line with the tradition of naming various Dragon Ball characters after foods and other oddities.
