-'''Chaozu''' (餃子, [[katakana]] チャオズ ''chaozu'', Chaoz, [[pinyin]] ''[[jiaozi|jiǎo zi]]'', [[Wade-Giles]] ''chiao-tzu'') is a [[fictional character]] in the [[manga]] [[Dragon Ball]] and the [[anime]] [[Dragon Ball (original series)|Dragon Ball]] and [[Dragon Ball Z]]. His [[seiyū]] is [[Hiroko Emori]]. In the English dub, he is voiced by [[Monika Antonelli]]. Chaozu is a white-skinned, red-cheeked little being devoted to [[Tenshinhan]] and possesses [[psionic]] powers.

-Compared to other Dragon Ball characters, relatively little is revealed about Chaozu. It is known that he was a student along with [[Tenshinhan]] of [[List of Humans in Dragon Ball#Tsuru-Sen'nin|Tsuru-Sen'nin]], The [[Crane (bird)|crane]] [[hermit]], and he has skills that involve [[telepathy]] and [[telekinesis]]. However, in the movie [[Mystical Adventure]], Chaozu appears as the king of the Mifan Empire with Tenshinhan as his bodyguard, although this not considered [[Canon (fiction)|canon]]. In the game [[Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2]], Chaozu's history says that he is a member of a military family, it is also unclear whether or not this is to be considered canonical as well. He has participated alongside Tenshinhan (whom he calls "Ten") in the 22nd [[Tenka'ichi Budôkai]], representing the Crane School of martial arts, but Chaozu lost in the quarter-finals against [[Kuririn]], representing Tsuru-Sen'nin's rival [[Kame-Sen'nin]]'s Turtle School. He and Tenshinhan later joined Kame-Sen'nin after being threatened by Tsuru-Sen'nin.

-After [[King Piccolo|Piccolo ''Daimaō'']]'s release from his long imprisonment in an electric rice cooker, Chaozu, Tenshinhan, and Kame-Sen'nin began a desperate search for the [[Dragon Balls]] to revive Kuririn. After Kame-Sen'nin collapsed and died due to using the Mafuba, Chaozu tried to wish to kill Piccolo, but was killed before he had the chance. The Dragon was subsequently killed, but Chaozu was later wished back to life by [[Bulma]] and company, after [[Son Goku (Dragon Ball)|Son Goku]] convinced [[Kami (Dragon Ball)|Kami]] to bring [[Shenlong (Dragon Ball)|Shenlong]] back to life, thus reviving the Dragon Balls.
-Chaozu entered to compete in the 23rd [[Tenka'ichi Budōkai]], but was knocked out in the preliminary rounds by cybernetically-enhanced {{DB:LDBC|Tao Pai Pai}}, who mysteriously survived his fight with [[Son Goku (Dragon Ball)|Son Goku]] and had returned to take revenge on Tenshinhan and Chaozu for disgracing the Crane School. He suffered serious injuries, but was treated at the nearby hospital and rejoined Tenshinhan after Goku defeated [[Piccolo (Dragon Ball)|Piccolo]].
-[[image:Chaozu.jpg|thumb|left|260px|Chaozu in the [[Android Saga]] of Dragon Ball Z]]
-In the "Dragon Ball Z" portion of the series, Chaozu trained under [[Kami (Dragon Ball)|Kami-sama]] in order to fight the [[Saiyans]] [[Vegeta]] and [[Nappa (Dragon Ball)|Nappa]], but he died in a suicide attack while attempting to defeat [[Nappa (Dragon Ball)|Nappa]], who had cut off one of Tenshinhan's arms. No damage was done to Nappa. Chaozu was later wished back for a second time by the Namekian Dragon Balls.
-After the Saiyan Saga of Dragon Ball Z, Chaozu stays in the background, mostly training with Tenshinhan in the frozen northern wastes, or at the Kame House with [[Master Roshi]] and [[Oolong (Dragon Ball)|Oolong]]. He makes an appearance in The [[Buu Saga]] and survives Buu's Human extinction attack but dies when Buu destroys the Earth and is wished back along with everyone else.
-He makes [[cameo appearance]]s in ''[[Dragon Ball GT]]'' in episodes 40, "Piccolo's Decision" and 64, "Until We Meet Again...".
-Chaozu is apparently human, with a few different traits than most characters in the series such as plain white skin and red cheeks. He looks more like a doll than a human, and never seems to grow or age physically. Some fans believe that Chaozu is based on Chinese vampires or the [[Hopping corpse|Kyonshi]]. He has a single strand of hair on his head under his hat.
-== Special abilities ==
-'''[[List of Dragon Ball special abilities#Bukujutsu|Bukujutsu]]'''
-:This is the ability to fly using one's ki. Chaozu appears to have no trouble controlling his energy and is able to float in the air for longer periods of time than most others.
-'''[[Psychokinesis|Chonoryoku]]'''
-:Chaozu can manipulate objects in his environment through mental power. He can also use this on weaker opponents to paralyze them or to directly attack their internal organs, as revealed in the anime.
-'''[[List of Dragon Ball special abilities#Dodonpa|Dodonpa]]'''
-:A energy beam shot from the finger.
-;Drill attack
-:Chaozu is able to spin rapidly and launch himself headfirst at his opponent. He uses this attack several times against [[Kuririn]] in the 22nd Tenkaichi Budoukai Saga. This is an '''anime only''' move.
-'''[[List of Dragon Ball special abilities#Jibaku|Jibaku]]''':
-:A suicide attack where the Chaozu makes himself a living bomb. He uses this technique on Nappa in a desperate attempt to kill him, but Nappa survives. In [[Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi]], it's called Farewell Mr. Tien and is his Super Finishing Move.
-== Name Pun ==
-Chaozu's name (餃子) is the Chinese food ''[[jiaozi]]'' (called ''[[gyoza]]'' in Japanese), in line with the tradition of naming various Dragonball characters after foods and other oddities.
-== Video games ==
-Chaozu is a playable character in the games ''[[Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi]]'' and ''[[Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2]]''. He is also in ''[[Dragon Ball Z: Tenkaichi Budokai]]'', and  ''[[Dragon Ball Z: Legend of the Super Saiyan]]''. Chaozu is also a playable character and a boss in ''[[Dragon Ball: Advanced Adventure]]''. Chaozu also appears as a one-line character in cut scenes for some Dragon Ball video games, such as ''[[Dragon Ball Z: Budokai]]'' and ''[[Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 3]]''.
-== Trivia ==
-* In the original Japanese versions of the manga and anime, Chaozu has a tendency to refer to Tenshinhan as "Ten-san" ("Mr. Ten"), displaying both familiarity and respect. This habit was kept for the U.S. English version of the manga, but is somewhat downplayed in the U.S. anime dub, where Tenshinhan's name is shortened to "Tien" and used in this manner by most every character.
