Katas was an ancient Namekian and the father of the Nameless Namek (who later separated into two: Kami and King Piccolo).
[edit] Biography
Katas lived on Planet Namek some 300 years before the start of Dragon Ball and belonged to the Dragon Clan during a time period when Namekian fighters were more common and when Namek had knowledge of higher technology such as space travel. Some point after spawning his son, a massive climate shift took place on Namek. He managed to save his son by sending him off to planet Earth in a space ship before he was killed by the climate shift. The only survivor of this was Guru, who gradually restored the population and modified the society somewhat. Whether Katas was good or evil was never stated. Kami originally had some evil in him before becoming guardian of Earth, but Guru claims that his evil side might be from Earth's own evil and not Katas (King Kai also speculated the possibility of Earth's evil influence being the reason why the Nameless Namek had evil in him prior to the start of Dragon Ball).
