case in point, if I want the Sage to encounter an imperial bio-weapon that was made by Doctor Gerro, and is essentially a prototype for an Imperfect Cell, would that be disallowed since my character is not from the DBZ universe?
Correct, no go.
Now in this instance, Dr. Gero is an Omniverse NPC, so if you wanted to have your character run into a bio-weapon that was made by Gero AFTER he showed up here, that's fine. Bear in mind that Omniverse Gero is pre-android saga. Hit me up if you want to flesh out details.
