Nepar (The Forgotten)

"Is that thing even alive?!"

- Ledas, Talking About Nepar

Nepar is a character in Dragon Ball Z: The Forgotten. He is featured in the third saga and is introduced in the chapter "Haunting Memory".

Appearance
Nepar is a huge being, well over forty feet tall. He appears bipedal, though it cannot be said for sure, as his form is very ambiguous; his entire body looks like smoke. He has two prominent arms (though there could be more) that are over thirty feet long each. His frame is skeletal and boney. His head is tall and spikey. Nepar's face is very hazy. Only the outlines of his face can be made out clearly, though his two eyes appear to be very dark and very large holes, taking up the majority of his face. He could have any number of legs, but they are not very useful. Nepar is never seen on the ground. He is always flying, and he does so in a slow, drifting manner.

Personality
The most immediately recognizable feature about Nepar is that he cannot talk. He makes almost no sounds whatsoever, and even his raspy breathing can be barely heard over the wind. Nepar is a Cooler soldier. He wears the chest harness like everyone else. However, he does not make contact with any of his fellow soldiers, preferring to be alone. He does not go out of his way to cause trouble or bloodshed unless ordered to (and he is only seen being ordered directly by Cooler). When he attacks, he drops any pretense of being calm, and viciously attacks his opponents. He does not do so in a wild, unthinking way; his technique is precise and ordered. Nepar is content to beat his enemies. Killing them is not always necessary for him to get satisfaction.

History
Nepar was originally spotted by Ledas as he traveled the barren plains. However, Ledas did not fight Nepar for several more chapters, until most of the elites on the planet had already been killed. At that time, Nepar was personally instructed by Cooler to kill the boy, being that he was the most powerful remaining soldier on planet. He obliged and tracked down Ledas. The two dueled in the chapter "Echo Tango".

Trivia

 * Nepar's name is based off of the fruit "pear".
