The Cruelcumber is a recurring monster in the Dragon Quest series that made its debut in Dragon Quest IX. It is an anthropomorphic spear-wielding summer squash.

Characteristics

The Cruelcumber and their cousins are tribal looking 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 Chonmage, a traditional Japanese topknot hairstyle.

Description These veteran vegetables are very versatile, and can batter with Boom, and resurrect perished pals with Zing.
The white design on their bellies is the mark of a misspent youth. It seemed like a good idea once, but now they're not so sure.
