==Characteristics==
The Cruelcumber and their cousins are tribal looking [[Nature family|vegetables]] with deranged smiles, their tongues flailing about as they fight. Interestingly, a bit of dishwater blonde hair extends from the tip of their stem, giving them a look reminiscent of the ''[[Wikipedia:chonmage|Chonmage]]'', a traditional Japanese topknot hairstyle.

Cruelcumbers have a rivalry with [[Orc]]s over who are the better spearmen, according to their bestiary entry in {{X}}.

Cruelcumbers began appearing in Version 5.0 of the game, this time being stronger than both their [[Zumeanie]] and [[Scourgette]] cousins by virtue of being introduced later in the game. They can perform [[Multithrust]] and lunging attacks with their spears, as well as being able to cast [[Oomph]].

Cruelcumber is one of the four possible starter monsters [[Psaro (Character)|Psaro]] can receive at the beginning of the game. Monty will offer it if the player answers "No" to the question: “Would you say you prefer lovable monsters to more rugged types?”, "Yes" to “Would you prefer a monster with sleek skin to one that's on the furrier side?”, and "No" to “Do you like weird and wonderful monsters?”.
