Background / History
Gine was originally a Saiyan with no exceptional combat talent. She was chosen by the soul of a dying Supreme Kai; her kindness and affinity with its power allowed her to inherit the position and undergo a complete transformation from mortal to god. Her new nature granted her an immense lifespan, enabling her to remain with Bardock across centuries. 497
She became one of Universe 7's most revered ancient Supreme Kais, possessing vast sacred power and unusual divine techniques despite comparatively modest raw battle strength. Moss and Nana served as her Supreme Kai attendants. 497 614
Following her and Bardock's conflict with Heaven over Kashius's existence, Gine was confined in the third level of the Spatial Prison. The Radiant Star restrained her body, while the prison's barrier prevented her from communicating with the outside world. During her confinement, her divine influence transformed the prison's interior into a lush environment filled with vegetation and water. 398 498
Bardock's associate informed her that Kakarot and Kashius had survived and were fighting on Namek. Though relieved by news of Kashius's potential, Gine stated that she valued his safety and peace over his strength, regarding him only as her child rather than an anomaly. 398
Appearance
Gine is a slender woman with long, straight dark hair, amber-like eyes, and a gentle, sacred presence. Her appearance changed greatly during her long life and imprisonment, becoming notably more refined and dignified. 398 477
- Usually wears flowing white robes; she previously wore a red-and-black silk robe in the Spatial Prison. 398 477
- Has a flawless complexion, delicate facial features, and bright amber eyes. 398
- Her holy aura can inspire reverence, though she is able to conceal it and pass as an ordinary woman. 555
- Wields a purple-blue staff that shines with silver light. 566
Personality
Gine is gentle, affectionate, and deeply protective of her family. Her separation from Kashius and Kakarot caused her lasting grief, but she consistently places their safety above their power or achievements. 398 493
Her warmth does not make her permissive. Gine has a distinctly Saiyan temper when her children are endangered, defying Heaven's claim that Kashius is not her son and sternly disciplining Kashius when his recklessness threatens others' sacrifices. 477 523
As a deity, she is patient and diplomatic, but she can be calculating when necessary. She concealed information from Whis to protect Kashius and used Earth food to secure Whis's consideration of training her sons. 637
