History/Background
Goku bassically started out like every other Saiyan child -- hyperactive, rebellious and acted like a rascal. And like every other Saiyan child, he was sent off-planet to annihiliate the inhabitants. In his case, he was sent to Eart and when a fellow Earthling -- Son Gohan found him, he basically 'adopted' him and named him Son Goku. And as an infant Goku was a VERY hard child to handle, but one day, Goku fell from a clift and hurt his head, and technically gone retarded. And after that day, Goku became very quiet and easy to handle.
And when he was a little older, he accidentally looked up at the moon, and all of you know what happens when a Saiyan looks up to the moon, right? So anyway, he tuned Oozaru and squashed his Grandpa Gohan. After that, he lived all on his own and one day, Bulma came along and asked for his help to look for Dragonballs.........

So that's how he came about, and if you want to know more, go read the comic, I'd advise against the cartoon though, 'coz that would take a LONG time, whereas 43 comic books isn't that much now......... isn't it?

Character
If you want to describe Goku, two words says it all -- Childish, and Stupid. But even though he's childish and stupid, when it comes to family and friends, he would protect them with his life and he is basically a good guy.

This is all I can put up for now, more to come next time... Ja ne.
