An Red Ribbon Army soldier is the son of the Red Ribbon Army head scientist Dr. Gero. He became Android 16's template. He is mentioned in an interview with the Dragon Ball manga series author, Akira Toriyama, in one of the Dragon Ball Full Color Androids Saga volumes.
Biography
Dr. Gero's son was a high-ranking Red Ribbon soldier, but fell to an enemy's bullet. In his affection, Gero modeled a powerful Android after him, Android 16. As he did not want to risk him being destroyed in battle, Dr. Gero deliberately programmed the Android to be non-aggressive.[1]
In Dragon Ball FighterZ it is stated by Android 21's good side that her son became the model for Android 16 but does not mention Dr. Gero as his father or at all. In the Android 21 arc of the game she does not refer to her creator by name, let alone as Gero himself which questions if she remembers or even encountered him at all after being turned into an android. In the Enemy Warrior saga when questioned by Cell her evil half knows who Gero is, stating she has no use for him, nor does not care about him and only needs his labs.
Trivia
- The loss of his son may be another reason behind Dr. Gero's vendetta against Goku, as Goku destroyed the army Gero's son gave his life fighting for.
