The History of the Kai's
A/N: This is another special chapter, that will explain some of the history, abilities, and the organization of the Kai's for this story. The Universe in this story vastly differs from the one in normal DBZ canon, so to help my readers I've created this. I won't disclose completely everything about the Kai's in this chapter, because i have to let that develop throughout the story. In this chapter I'll just break down what i few as essential to the please ignore the information I stated about the Kai's in chapter seven; it was inaccurate.
(Some information is borrowed from the Dragonball Wiki.)
(Up to this point in the story there have been 20 generations of Kai's in the DBZ: A Warrior's Path, Realm of the Universe.)
The Universe's structure:
The exact number of planets and galaxies in the Universe is unknown, even to the highest ruling Kai's.
4 Galaxies= 1 Quadrant (A/N:Each planet in each galaxy has its own Kami or god's/ goddesses.)
1 Quadrant = 4 Sectors
4 Sectors= 1 Realm
Each Individual Sector, Quadrant, and Realm has its own tittle or name.
DBZ: A Warrior's Path takes place in the North Galaxy of Sector Z.
The North Galaxy: Has approximately 50 Billion Planets and is ruled by the North Kai or King Kai.
The South Galaxy: Has approximately 45 billion planets and is ruled by the South Kai.
The East Galaxy: Has approximately 70 billion planets and is ruled the East Kai.
The West Galaxy: Has approximately 100 billion planets and is ruled by the West Kai
Planet:
Planet Kaishin ("World-Core") is the original home world of all Kai and Kaioshin. The planet is a humongous, gargantuan, enormous, version of a Kai Planet. The planet is 100x the Earth's size.
Shin-Jin:
The Shin-jins are born from magical fruits that grow off of the Kaiju trees. The average Shin-jin possesses special abilities that far surpass that of any sort of un-trained normal being. Shin-jins live leisurely lives, studying various things at a school-like castle. The lifespan of the basic Shin-jin is roughly 75,000 years; however the Shin-jin born from golden magical fruits can live for millions upon millions of years.
Whenever one of the Kai on the Kai planets passes away, the Shin-jins draw lots among themselves to choose who will take the Kai's place and become a new Kai. The Supreme Kais, however, are chosen only from among Shin-jins born from a special golden fruit that is particularly rare. Occasionally there are Shin-jins who are born evil. Those delinquent Shin-jins are cast into the Demon Realm (the bottom tip of the universe) where they live secluded from civilizations and ruled by a Makaioshin.
Shin-Jin's also possess a vast variety of mystical abilities, as well of a vast knowledge of the universe.
Organization:
(A/N: There are multiple Kai's because of the enormity of the universe in this story.)
Kai's: The lowest level of ranking in the Shin-Jin order. Kai's are given the responsibility of overseeing a specific galaxy in their quadrant of the Universe. There are 4 Kai's that overlook each galaxy in their quadrant of the Universe. Each Kai rules a specific direction: East, South, North, and West.
Grand Kai's: They oversee the Kai's. They are far more powerful than regular Kai's. Grand Kai's oversee an entire Quadrant
Supreme Kai's: They oversee the Grand Kai's and rule over a specific Sector of the Universe. Just like regular Kai's there are four individual supreme Kai's. The 4 Supreme Kai's each rule a specific direction of the Sector. They are vastly superior more powerful than Grand Kai's and regular Kai's
Grand Supreme Kai's: They oversee the Supreme Kai's are the SUPREME ruler of their Realm. They are generally considered the most powerful being's in their individual Realms.
5. TBA: I'm not revealing how high and far the pecking order goes, but I'll disclose this one fact. There are two beings who oversee everything.
The power levels of the Kai's especially the upper Kai's will be incredibly high. Some of you might say ridiculously high, but keep in mind the sheer number of planets they rule. The Kai's have to be immensely powerful to keep control or some semblance of control. I just wanted to warn my reviewers and readers about this fact; don't be shocked when you start to see whats seems to ridiculously high numbers.
