Korrin

(Karin)

Korrin, or Karrin as his name is sometimes spelled, first appears during Dragon Ball, when Goku is a child. His history is never delved into, but the talking cat seems very wise and is one of the masters that Goku must encouter on his journey. Korrin lives in a platform partway up the long pole that leads to Kami's lookout/palace and grows the Senzu beans that are so vital to the Z warriors' success. He apparently lives with Yajirobe, and is often gruff and sometimes cranky, although he is a good cat underneath it all.
