Overview
Namek Saga
Moori's first appearance
Moori was born as a son of Grand Elder Guru on Planet Namek some years prior. Although Moori's fighting power isn't high, he is very clever. He manages to destroy all of Frieza's scouters with his Finger Beams.
Moori and another elder from his village
This causes Frieza's collection of the Dragon Balls to be seriously delayed. When Frieza orders Dodoria to slay Moori, Moori told Dende and Cargo to run away. Just when Moori attempted to perform a move that would have avenge his slain Namekian breathen, a blast (either Frieza's Death Beam in the manga or Dodoria's Mouth Blast in the anime) was fired straight past Moori, slaying Cargo. Then, Dodoria sadistically carries out Frieza's order by breaking Moori's neck with his bare hands.

After the Z Fighters used Porunga's three wishes to bring back to life Krillin and Yamcha 130 days later and two of Porunga's wishes to bring back Chiaotzu and Tien Shinhan another 130 days later, Moori and his people used the third wish to teleport to a new planet similar to Planet Namek.
