Grand Elder Guru

44
Grand Elder Guru, is the oldest and wisest remaining Namekian in existence at the time. As the creator of the Namekian Dragon Balls, Guru's death would cause them to become inert, unless he passes down his authority to someone else. Guru regards Kami and Piccolo's original potential to be so great that only a Super Saiyan could have a chance at defeating him. He also was a kind and humble individual who deeply cared for all of his children. Guru is one of the two known survivors of a cataclysmic climate shift on Namek several hundred years. Guru is renowned for saving the Namekian race after the climate shift, by laying eggs and continuing his species. In his lifetime, he birthed 109 children, including his bodyguard Nail and Dende.
