She is the only child of Human/Saiyan hybrid Son Gohan and the Human woman Videl, making her a quarter-blood Saiyan hybrid. As a child, Pan's short hairstyle resembles her mother, Videl. She also has a pale complexion skin, with dark grew eyes. she wears a white t-shirt with black sleeves with the letters "GTH" on the front as well as a symbol right below the letters, black bike shorts which go down to her knees, red sneakers, grey socks, and red fingerless gloves as her training outfit. When she goes to school however, she wears her school uniform. A blue sweater with a white shirt under it, a blue skirt that goes down to her knees, blue socks, and black shoes. She is overall a cheerful child, who is confident in her abilities. She is determined to get stronger, but also have fun while doing it. She often let's her guard down because of how powerful she is compared to normal humans, but when sparring someone like Piccolo or her father, or even her grandfather Goku, she knows to take the fight seriously. She is also the type to test another's strength, by attacking them first to see how they react. Of course, she would only do this if she's sure that the person can defend himself against the attack. But overall, she shares a similar personality to Goku, always itching for a fight, and loves passing her limits. Much like her grandfather Son Goku (and unlike her father and lesser extend to uncle Son Goten) Pan had a passion for the martial arts that was typical of a Saiyan. Even at a young age, Pan exhibited incredible potential that surpassed even that of her father's. She is a kindergarten student and although she is only 3 and a half years old, she has been training under Piccolo and shows signs of having great potential. hey return to Piccolo's House where Pan shows an interest in becoming a superhero like Goten and Trunks who have recently had to give up their antics due to not studying enough. After bravely catching a frog that leaps off a cliff, Piccolo decides to begin training Pan. Nine months later, Pan continues her training under Piccolo having improved greatly in a short amount of time. However, Pan finds herself frustrated at her lack of ability to fire Ki Blasts or fly though Piccolo tells her that there is no need to rush as she is only three years of age. When Piccolo notes that she appears to have more talent than her father, Pan asks if it is true that her father could be stronger than her grandfather if he wanted to, realizing that she has never seen her father fight before to which Piccolo tells her that he would if the need arose. Following their day of training Pan heads off home. One day after kindergarten she is approached by Soldier Number 15, a Red Ribbon soldier who pretends that her mom asked him to pick her up. Without hesitation she knocks the soldier out with a punch to the gut. When Piccolo appears, also in the Red Ribbon outfit, Pan is quick to notice who he is. Pan boards an aircraft with Piccolo who explains that he wants to use her as bait to re-awaken Gohan's fighting spirit, a plan that Pan is all too happy to take part in. She is then taken to the Red Ribbon Base where Piccolo, still in uniform, pretends to stand guard over her when Gohan arrives to save her. Gohan soon enters into combat against Gamma 1, but coming up short, Piccolo pretends to grab Pan by the scruff of the neck in order for Gohan to unleash his true power. Sure enough the ploy succeeds.[18] Eventually Gohan and Piccolo turn the tables against the Red Ribbon Army and Magenta and Carmine make a break for the underground lab. Pan breaks out of her handcuffs and chases them down with Carmine pulling out his firearm and taking shots at her. After Gamma 2 uses his weapon to disarm Carmine, Pan lands a couple blows on him that knocks him unconscious. Soon afterwards, Cell Max arrives on the scene causing nothing but mayhem and destruction. Pan stays at Bulma's side as the others battle the giant android.[20] During the battle, Piccolo tries to hand Gohan a Senzu Bean but a blast from Cell Max causes the bean to go flying. Just before it falls into the debris below, Pan leaps off a building after it. During that moment, Pan finally learns how to fly and tosses her injured father the bean, telling him to fight hard. Upon awakening his true power, Gohan defeats Cell Max with help from Piccolo, Goten and Trunks. Upon awakening his true power, Gohan defeats Cell Max with help from Piccolo, Goten and Trunks. One day after school, Pan is picked up by Gohan, Piccolo and Goku. Not familiar with her grandfather she points and asks her father who he is. After being told, Pan zips behind Goku and tries to land a kick on him which he blocks with little effort. The two exchange a warm smile and head off home.
