History:
Born the only daughter of a Saiyan woman named Plum, Tulip spent her childhood trying to learn more about the legendary man who'd been her father. The girl discovered that he had been a legendary martial artist by their planet's standards, defeating the entourage sent to capture the girl's mother after she deserted the Saiyan Army. When an entire battleship filled with elite Saiyan warriors came to their planet of Woatera, the man boarded under the agreement that, in giving himself up, their planet would be spared and that Plum would be freed from the bounty. That was the last her mother saw her father, when Tulip was almost a year old.

After learning about her father's strength and her mother's past, Tulip tried to teach herself martial arts. Through hard work and determination, she managed to gain partial control over her inner ki. Still believed at this point that strength was directly proportional to physical ability, which is why she spent her school years training to become stronger. This pushed her PL from a single 1 to about 100, due to her lack of understanding when it came to energy.

Entered a martial arts tournament at the age of 16 and was roughly introduce to the world of true fighters. She lost in the second round, getting beaten almost to death due to her refusal to stay down. When Plum had completely recovered from the complete beat down, she was stronger than she had been. Tulip agreed to teach her daughter what she knew about ki and martial arts, from her childhood on Planet Vegeta. During this training period, Tulip learned to control her Ki and channel the energy into physical attacks that she could project. The girl still held the adamant opinion that such attacks weren't strength and continued pursuing the path of power through physical strength. During this period, she increased her PL to 300.

When she barely graduated from High School at the age of 18, Tulip had won the Woatera Martial Arts Tournament twice, due to her training and pushing her limits every day. Her school record and knowledge reflected that, which is why she didn't pursue further schooling. Her reputation made other, ordinary martial artists pursue her for sparring and discussion. She had reached a wall in her training and strength; on the top of what she considered the strongest possible, the girl didn't know what else to aspire towards. Her power level had barely increased since before, only raising to 375.

At 20 years of age, Tulip encountered her first full-blooded Saiyan, sent to scout out her planet and conquer it for the Saiyan people. She fought the scout and lost brutally, almost dying. Her mother stepped in and took the finishing blow. Watching her mother fall, something snapped within Tulip and she activated her hidden potential, enabling her to barely beat back the scout. He retreated into his ship, leaving the beaten girl and her mother behind. Plum realized that, in her current state, she would never be able to protect the planet she loved and the family she cherished. Taking what little belongings she had left, the girl set off on a pilgrimage to discover how to fully harness the energy her rage had unlocked. After the encounter, her PL increased to 500.

After a year had passed, she found herself at the galactic dock for Woatera. After beating down a group of thieves, the girl was readily offered a job as a bodyguard for the ship. She denied their offer of payment and instead asked for transportation and food to whatever planet the ship was headed to. Tulip wanted to see what the galaxy had to offer, in order to better strengthen herself for the day she'd return as her planet's protector. At this point, her PL was around 800
