[edit] Zeroro
Zeroro was a son of a wealthy Keron family. All of its members wear surgical masks. He was close friends with young Keroro and young Giroro, but was repeatedly abused (such as being left in a hole with a three headed monster, being blasted, used as a foot step, and used as a flotation device, being used as a shield, etc.). Despite this, Zeroro deeply valued his relationship with Keroro and Giroro, following even the most insane orders if told doing otherwise would break their relationship. When playing, Zeroro's beloved music box that he had since he was a infant was accidentally broken by Keroro, an action which Zeroro never forgave. During the fight with Cool Big Brother Viper, Keroro revealed he also lost Zeroro's beloved pet turtle, he ate a strawberry that was for a cake for Zeroro, he wrote the names of murderers in a mystery novel Zeroro read, using his prized stamps to label postcards, and eating the bananas Zeroro was going to eat on a hiking trip. Later, he joined the Keron Army. Due to his abuse as a tadpole, he developed supernatural powers, becoming the army's top assassin and someone who even Giroro feared. At this point, he wears a gas mask instead of a surgical mask and uses a length of wire as a weapon.
[edit] Dororo
After crash landing on Pekopon, Zeroro was rescued by the kunoichi Koyuki. Wishing to follow the way of the ninja, Zeroro changed his name to Dororo, after the forest where he was rescued. Now, he wears a ninja mask and a sword with sheath on his back. He spends most his time training, reading, or spying on the actions of Keroro Platoon and others. Dororo is often forgotten by the rest of Keroro Platoon, causing his trauma switch to turn on, making him sit in a corner and cry. Dororo will also not participate in plans that are potentially harmful to people's feelings, well being, the Earth, etc.
