![]() ![]() Although he lets go of his grudge against Goku and the others, he is still capable of holding animosity towards people he considers unrepentant. Despite making new friends, Tien stays reclusive and is not very socially active, spending most of his time training to become a better fighter, although he still goes to Bulma's parties and interacts well with others there. Tien despises staying on the sidelines whilst his more powerful friends and allies fight opponents far stronger than he and will always attempt to assist even if he knows that it will most likely lead to his death. He is very stern and serious, not cracking jokes and goofing around as often as most of the other Z-Fighters.ĭuring Dragon Ball Z, he is seen striving to become a powerful warrior and still hopes to surpass Goku one day. He occasionally tries to repent for his former brutality, but eventually rises above his horrid memories and looks toward to the future. His personality transitions from one of a brutal killer to that of an honorable warrior who cares deeply for those he strives to protect. He goes off on his own to train and soon becomes a powerful ally to Goku and the others. However, this mentality soon changes with the realization that he disagrees with the brutal methods employed by his masters, Shen and Mercenary Tao. Before he transitioned to the good side, he planned to kill Goku during the World Martial Arts Tournament in revenge for Tao's apparent death at Goku's hands. Due to Master Roshi's and Goku's influence, he changed his demeanor and became one of the most respected warriors on the planet. He highly idolized his mentor Mercenary Tao and desired to be a famous assassin like him. ![]() However, he finds a lifelong best friend in Chiaotzu, for whom he cares deeply, and vice-versa. This brutality can be plainly seen when he crushes Yamcha's and another fighter's leg during the 22nd World Martial Arts Tournament.

Tien wears a formal outfit which primarily consists of a green vest, a black shirt, a pair of black pants and a brown-red kilt in Battle of Gods and the manga version of the Universe 6 and Universe Survival Sagas. Tien's non-combat outfit typically consists of a Hanfu-style robe with loose pants and boots, in contrast to the Manchu-style clothing that most Chinese characters in the series wear. However, out of all of his many outfits, the most iconic one most likely has to be the Gi he wore during the Androids Saga which consists of a green baggy toga-like top, a pair of baggy green pants, red-and-green wristbands, black boots with yellow covers and a red sash. Throughout the series he was worn a large number of outfits. Another noteworthy trait of his is the large scar on the right side of his chest, starting at his collarbone and running all the way down to his abdomen Tien received this scar at the 23rd World Martial Arts Tournament during his fight against his former mentor, Mercenary Tao, who caught him off guard with his illegal Hidden Blade attack, scarring him for life. Allegedly, Tien is not naturally bald, as it is stated by his former mentor, Master Shen, that he shaves his head much like Krillin does, though unlike Krillin he has never been seen unshaven. The third eye is indeed real, as he has proved at several occasions that he can both move it around and close it, and even shoot ki laser beams out of it. His by far most prominent feature is his third eye, which he has inherited from his alien ancestors (although some sources claim the third eye was achieved via intense meditation). ![]() In his early appearances, he has a leaner physique, which gradually becomes bulkier.
