Cymbal

is a Mutated Namekian, and King Piccolo's third son since his release from the Electric Rice Cooker.
==Appearance==
Cymbal is a large, humanoid, dragon-like Namekian, and his mutation is related to his apparent specialty: finding Dragon Balls (King Piccolo mutters that it is only fitting that such a spawn resembles a dragon).
==Personality==
Like his siblings, Cymbal is highly loyal to his father and is dedicated to serving him. He is extremely rude to humans, as when he first meets Goku and Yajirobe, he demands that they tell him if they know anything about the Dragon Ball he is looking for, threatening to kill them if they don't tell him everything they know. Cymbal will do anything to get the balls, even if it means killing a person. Unlike his brother Tambourine, Cymbal is not needlessly cruel or sadistic, as he states he only cares about the Dragon Balls, and only tries to kill Yajirobe when he refuses to give him his ball.
==Biography==
===Dragon Ball===
====King Piccolo Saga====
After Tambourine comes back to Pilaf's Flying Base with the list of martial artists who were contestants in World Martial Arts Tournaments, King Piccolo gives Tambourine the mission to murder all those martial artists and decides to give birth to Cymbal in order to find Dragon Balls.
After hatching, Cymbal's first assignment is to gather the remaining Dragon Balls so his father can wish for restored youth and power. After he learns of the location of the nearest Dragon Ball from Emperor Pilaf, Cymbal heads out to retrieve it.
Cymbal finds Goku and Yajirobe at Yajirobe's Prairie, and demands they hand over the Dragon Ball. When Yajirobe refuses to give it to him, Cymbal threatens to kill him for it. Goku and Yajirobe play Rock-Paper-Scissors to see who fights him, which Yajirobe wins. Cymbal fights Yajirobe, with his punches and Electric Shock Waves not affecting the swordsman. He is killed when Yajirobe slices him horizontally in half with his katana. Cymbal is then roasted and eaten by Yajirobe.
==Power==
;Manga & Anime
Although short-lived, Cymbal showed his fighting prowess when he actually landed a few hits on Yajirobe (who at that point was described by Goku as the toughest person he had met) and later fired Electric Shock Waves at him before meeting his end. He is not as strong as his older brother Tambourine, who was made for fighting rather than finding the Dragon Balls.
