Mustard, originally named Tard in the Japanese version, is a member of the Spice Boys, the loyal squad of fighters serving Garlic Jr. during the Garlic Jr. Saga. He is a tall, muscular Serpent-race alien with long red hair, bull horns, and small horn-like growths on his biceps. He wears Frieza Force-style armor in black and purple.
When Garlic Jr. escapes from the Dead Zone using the power of the Makyo Star, Mustard and the Spice Boys help him spread the Black Water Mist across the Earth, turning the planet's population into mindless, violent servants. Mustard is aggressive and simple-minded, preferring brute force over strategy.
During the battle at Kami's Lookout, Mustard and his partner Salt fight against Gohan and Krillin. When Gohan taps into his latent power after seeing Krillin brutalized, the young fighter becomes overwhelmingly strong. Salt is vaporized first, and a furious Mustard charges at Gohan seeking revenge, only to be destroyed by a powerful energy blast from the enraged half-Saiyan.
