Revision as of 04:51, 26 November 2017
Katopesla (カトペスラ Katopesura) is a warrior from Universe 3 and a member of Team Universe 3. He is a policeman that protects his universe.[1]
Appearance
Katopesla's unmasked look
Katopesla is a modified humanoid warrior wearing a blue with white suit that has a visor helmet and he has a large P on his chest. He wears yellow gloves, yellow boots and he has a beltbuckle which glows and enables him to change to different modes.[1]
Without his helmet he is shown to have blue skin, white hair, and he wears sunglasses.
Personality
Katopesla seems to be calculative and fairly strategic, as shown when he, along with Biarra, created and executed a somewhat elaborate plan to ambush Jiren. He seems to have a strong sense of justice, similar to the Pride Troopers from Universe 11 as he wanted to fight and defeat Frieza several times, despite how easily Frieza defeated him during their earlier encounter, but he only wanted to fight him in his Whirlwind Speed Mode. This shows that he knew his regular mode was weaker than Frieza. He also seems to be very courageous, as shown when he confronted Frieza when he was rampaging through the arena and shooting ki blasts everywhere, which made Dyspo to lose will to fight, saying "I'm done with him.". He seems to be merciless and cold at times, as shown when he told Android 17 that there is no mercy in war, who was asking him why he would hit a girl.
Biography
Dragon Ball Super
Universal Survival Saga
Main article: Universe Survival Saga Katopesla appeared on Mosco's planet hidden in the shadows, and was then seen alongside his team at the Tournament of Power. When the tournament began, he fought Hop, and was later blasted away by Frieza.
With Dyspo and Toppo distracted, Katopesla advances against Jiren.
During the struggle between Jiren, and Goku's Universe 7's Spirit Bomb, Katopesla was seen clashing with Pirina of Universe 6, while standing next to Biarra, who was fighting Saonel. Later on in the Tournament, Katopesla was seen squaring off with Cabba, but Cabba lost Katopesla in the dust. When the tournament was halfway over, and after Jiren had defeated Hit, Katopesla and Biarra plotted to ambush Jiren while he was in mediation. As a distraction to lure Toppo and Dyspo away from Jiren, Biarra challenged the two Pride Troopers to a fight. While the two of them were rushing at Biarra, Biarra yelled at Katopesla to go attack Jiren, as now was his chance since he was unguarded, and deep in mediation. Surprised, Toppo and Dyspo immediately stopped their rushing assault and looked behind them, as Katopesla went in and attempted to attack Jiren. Katopesla was not powerful enough to breakthrough the protective shield Jiren had projected on himself however, immediately repelling him. Katopesla and Biarra were then confronted by Toppo and Dyspo, where the former told Katopesla why he could not harm Jiren.
Katopesla and Zarbuto feel the impact of Goku and Caulifla's blows
While Katopesla was fighting Zarbuto, they were blown away by Super Saiyan 2 Goku and Caulifla's battle when their ki blasts combine and fists colliding, creating a massive shockwave.
Katopesla is hit by Kale and Goku.
While Frieza was rampaging through the arena, Katopesla confronted him, and introduced himself as a policeman of Universe 3. He then started to switch modes to challenge Frieza, but he was knocked away by Goku's fight with Kale and Caulifla when they came crashing towards him. Katopesla flew in the air, landing on his hands, then jumping on his feet, easily recovering. Not long after, he approached Frieza again, this time successfully activating his Whirlwind Speed Mode, which turned him red. He challenged Frieza to catch him, as his speed became 300 times faster, and disappeared, not knowing that Frieza had chose to ignore him so he could watch the fight between Goku, Caulifla, and Kale.
Android 17 intercepts Katospesla's blow, holding his fist.
Katopelsa confronted Android 18, introduced himself, and posed. He saw Android 18 had an injury on her leg from a previous explosion. Android 18 then takes a fighting stance and urges him to bring it on, but the android is shocked when Katopelsa immediately appears behind her, stating that he is indeed fast. Katopelsa went in for the attac, and was about to punch her in the face, however, Android 17 stepped in and caught his fist with his hand, surprising Katopesla, as 17 wasn't in sight before. The male android then punched Katopelsa while he had him in his grasp. While Katoplesa was on the ground 17 shot a ki blast directly at his body. This sent him flying away.

Trivia
- Katopesla's name comes from the Italian word pescatora.
- He appears to be an homage to the Kamen Rider franchise. In particular, his status as a cyborg and his belt's design seem to be explicit references to the original Kamen Rider, while his ability to change forms is a trait common to the Heisei-era (2000-onwards) Riders, particularly Faiz and Kabuto, both of whom are known for having forms that let them move at incredible speeds.
- His battles with Android 17 and 18 are somewhat fitting considering they are all cyborgs. His fights with Frieza are also fitting as he is a hero and Frieza a villain as well as a former cyborg himself.
