Mai (Dragon Ball)

Villain
Mai is the right hand of Emperor Pilaf in the Dragon Ball series. She is a spy and treasure hunter, who works alongside her partner, a ninja fox named Shu. Of the three villains, Mai is the most competent,  showing skill in computers, gadgetry, and gunfighting. Mai's main goal is to gather Dragon Balls for Emperor Pilaf, so that he may wish to rule the world.

Appearance
While her companions seem more cartoonish and goofy, one being a dopey fox in traditional ninja garb, and the other a squat and cute little blue imp dressed in Chinese imperial robes, Mai has a more serious and intimidating appearence, tall, beautiful and stern, with long black hair, and dressed in a blue (sometimes green) military trench coat with soviet style red star insignias on each shoulder, green cargo pants, and brown boots. She wears a brown belt and a pistol holster for her weapon. She wears red eye shadow and lipstick, sometimes missing the lipstick. When she is portrayed as an old woman in Dragonball GT, she has white hair and wears a navy blue bandana covering the top of her head and a red trench coat. When she is transformed into a child in DragonBall Z: Battle of the Gods, her manner of dress is similar to her normal attire, but she does not wear makeup, amd her trench coat is olive hreen and soviet style.

Personality
Mai is intelligent, calculating,  and resourceful for the most part, though being a part of Pilaf's group, she is still prone to bumbling,  and being the victim of incompetent planning. She has a serious demeanor most of the time, and a dry, sometimes perverted sense of humor, though she is very shy and reserved about sexuality, blushing when Emperor Pilaf blows a kiss at Bulma as a failed attempt at sexual intimidation. She has on ome occasion used seduction to avoid a threat of death from Emperor Pilaf, though it appeared to be out of fear and as a last resort. She appears to suffer from a poor self image, due to years of abuse at the hands of her employer, and has described herself as "very stupid" along with Shu. She is fiercely loyal to Emperor Pilaf, and seems to value his approval very highly. Whatever her motivation is, she seems to want to see Pilaf succeed in his goals, regardless of the hardship she has to endure. She is not a hand to hand fighter, and when put in a situation where she needs to fight, she will usually use a gun, or some sort of machine (includong a customized mech suit) or she will rely on traps and wit.
