[QUOTE="Alzrius, post: 846065, member: 8461"] Trying to determine who Cell is "composed" of can be a somewhat daunting task. From what we hear in the anime, he says he is composed of cells from Goku, Gohan, Vegeta, Nappa, Krillin, Tenshinhan, Yamcha, Piccolo, Freezer, and King Cold. He also mentions that he did not have any of Trunks's DNA incorporated into him because the computer in charge of constructing him calculated that he had enough Saiyan DNA. However, in the alternate timeline that Cell is from, he reveals that he successfully killed Trunks there. Since Trunks mentions later that Cell has none of his cells, it would seem that Cell killed his timeline's Trunks without absorbing him. And of course, Cell later absorbs Androids 17 & 18, as well as thousands upon thousands of ordinary people. This probably doesn't need to be mentioned, but the DBZ cosmology has no "God" per se. Also, what they just called the Otherworld was originally called Heaven. In reference to Android 16, I'm assuming that you mean "more powerful" than Freezer, yes? That seems like a safe bet to make, using the following line of reasoning: Goku is stronger than Freezer when he begins fighting Android 19. Vegeta appears to be of roughly equal strength when he fights Android 19. Androids 17 & 18 are stronger than Vegeta, initially. Cell, when he returns, is stronger than Androids 17 & 18. Android 16 is equal to Cell then. While Babidi was able to cast spells on very powerful beings (such as Vegeta) the incredible ease with which Piccolo, and later Buu, were able to dispatch him with seems like a good case that, in terms of martial power (if not ki), he was quite weak, compared to the people around him. What exactly do you mean by "independant"? No one was controlling Cell, certainly. He apparently wasn't "roaming around", although Babidi most certainly was. The only information I've been able to find on Dabura is that he was the "king of the demon world". This isn't much help though, as the cosmology in the DBZ-universe that I've seen doesn't include a "demon world" per se. There is a Hell, but it is where evil people do when they die, not a harboring ground for any sort of demons. [/QUOTE]
