Saru is of saiyan descent and a member of the Kong Tribe. He was born into a branch family of the head tribe leaders and was for the most part forgotten about among most of his clansmen. He, however, is a very sweet and nice boy who was raised among his family and lived a perfectly good life in the frozen waste. It was hard but it wasn’t impossible to live. However there is a tradition in there tribe that once a man is 18 he must go out into the world and make a name for himself much like the old ancestor did.
