Additional Information Freeza is the head of an empire that conquers and sells planets throughout the galaxy. He also had a business relationship with the Saiyan race and its King, hiring them to wipe out planets that would then be re-sold to the highest bidder.
In time, King Vegeta had a son who was already powerful at just a young age. With the possibility of powerful Saiyans bearing more powerful offspring, along with the risk of them uniting against him, Freeza began to see the Saiyans as a threat to his rule. Secretly, Freeza was afraid of the "Super Saiyan." Though it was just a Saiyan legend, the fact young Prince Vegeta was already stronger than his father fueled Freeza's fear of a Super Saiyan emerging in his lifetime.
Hoping to eliminate the problem before it appears, Freeza wiped out King Vegeta along with the Saiyan homeworld, save for a handful of warriors, including Prince Vegeta, who were offworld. By concocting a story that the planet was destroyed by a meteor, Freeza was able to keep this small group of Saiyans under his control.As befitting a ruler of a vast empire, Freeza has an air of nobility to him. But beneath this facade lies a creature of immense evil. Whether it be an individual or an entire planet, Freeza has no compunction of using deadly force not just to achieve his goals, but also because he knows nobody can stop him. As a result, Freeza has no doubt that he is the ultimate power in the universe.
On a final note, Akira Toriyama came up with his character names based on word play. Freeza's name is a pun on the electrical appliance, 'freezer'.
