	No. 15 is a capable fighter, able to match [[Cell]]-era [[Son Goku]], [[Future Trunks]], and [[Vegeta]] while in their base forms, but ultimately falling after Vegeta transformed into a [[Super Saiyan]]. Paired up with No. 14, No. 15 appears to be the "brains" of the group with skills that allowed him to scan his enemies for weaknesses and strategize. He also had the ability, similar to his later counterparts, to create a [[barrier]] to protect himself from attacks. Even if the weaker of the pair, he was still an exceptionally powerful Artificial Human.<ref>{{cite guidebook\|Book=11\|Page=p. 97}}</ref> Like most characters of the era, he has the ability to [[fly]] and to fire a variety of energy attacks.

	No. 15's design was initially developed by [[Akira Toriyama]].<ref>{{cite guidebook\|Book=11\|Page=p. 185}}</ref> Toriyama gave No. 15 a design reminiscent of African American fashion of the 1970s, bordering on a "pimp" stereotype with gold earrings and an (apparent) drinking problem. Toriyama also gave him exaggerated lips, a characteristic that he uses with several dark-skinned characters, although his skin is tinted purple in the colored design. He also sports a [[Red Ribbon Army]] bowtie ~~and an~~ oversized hat, somewhat ~~resembling~~ an afro. His sunglasses disguise his mechanical eyes.

	This shorter figure was initially designated by Toriyama as Artificial Human No. 14, however the roles were reversed at some point.<ref>{{cite guidebook\|Book=11\|Page=p. 185}}</ref> It is unknown if this was an accident of production, a change once filming began, or a different reason.
