Pilaf serves as a primary antagonist in Dragon Ball. He is a diminutive, mischievous demi-human whose sole desire is power, dreaming of global domination. He styles himself as an emperor, possessing both a crown and a castle. He governs an empire called the Reich Pilaf, yet the only members of this nefarious regime are his two henchmen, Shu and Mai. On one occasion, he gathers all the Dragon Balls, but Goku and his friends thwart him. A second time, the Red Ribbon Army stops him, and a third time, he unleashes Piccolo Daimaou, who betrays him shortly thereafter. At the start of Dragon Ball GT, Pilaf inadvertently wishes for Goku to be transformed into a young child using the Black Star Dragon Balls, thereby triggering the events of the entire series.
