Name: Janelle "J.T." Brooks Age: 18 Previous Ranger Designation: Lightning Sting Red Ranger Dino Steel Ranger Designation: Dino Steel Pink Ranger Personality: Janelle is your typical happy go lucky girl but can be extremely fiery and extremely charming when the situation calls for it, taking after her mother. With a relatively peaceful childhood coupled with a touch of celebrity, she can come across as bratty given who her parents are and is sometimes seen as naïve thanks to her lack of life experience but is fiercely loyal and passionate to all she holds precious, just like her father. History: In terms of traumatic events, Janelle's childhood was rather uneventful outside of the occasional death in the family. Born to Joey Brooks and Jules Grayson, Janelle Turner Brooks or JT for short in honor of her father's best friend grew up in a family of legendary people and for that reason, she was beloved in the Ranger community and enjoyed a bit of celebrity in the public eye. However in terms of romance, her last name did more harm than good as any boy who was interested in her were either scared off by her father given his previous exploits but to say that an overprotective father is the worst thing she's had to deal with is a win in the book of most kids growing up. Upon turning 18, a new threat emerged on Earth forcing Grid Battleforce to assemble a new team of Rangers to combat this evil. Janelle was chosen to lead the team as its Red Ranger, using the same morpher that put her father on the map as a hero and led him to her equally heroic mother, creating the next generation of Lightning Sting Power Rangers. Early on in her tenure as Red Ranger, Janelle encountered friction with the team as her lineage and prior training caused her to get a big head and caused her to almost get one of her teammates killed. In her greatest setback to date, she was heartbroken to see that her team lost faith in her ability to lead. In an effort to restore her team's faith in her, she ran to her father, hoping for a quick fix but his words were simple, "In order to lead, you must first learn to follow." Before she could take action on her father's advice, the multiverse began to collapse, pulling her into a timeline with no friends or family. With her Ranger career just being started, she set out to repair the dimensional tears so that she can get back to her team and make things right. Other: N/A

Name: Joseph "Joey" Brooks Age: 25 Ranger Designation: SPD Red Ranger Gear: Delta Morpher, Delta Blasters Personality: In his line of work, easy going is typically not a term used to describe someone but for Joey, he was the exception to the rule. He was extremely laid back, to the point of being almost too carefree on the borderline of naïve. With his carefree nature, he is extremely loyal to those he deems his friends and that loyalty is matched by his drive to do what he feels is right, even when his decisions don't benefit him personally. History: Born into a traditional two family household, Joey's childhood was pretty normal in terms of how he grew up and no major trauma outside of the occasional injury while playing sports or your run of the mill girl trouble with many fond memories along the way. Once he turned 18, made the surprising decision to skip college where many scholarships were offered to him to play quarterback at powerhouse football programs and instead, he chose to serve his country alongside his best friend, Brooklyn Turner. For the next four years, he served his country admirably during several tours of duty, earning a reputation for being an elite level sniper while maintaining his same calm and carefree demeanor, even in the harshest of conditions, earning him the nickname Triggerman by his comrades. At the age of 22, Joey was recruited along with Brooklyn by Commander Jack Storm who was recently moved to the CIA and tasked with building an elite strike team. For the next two years, Joey was learning invaluable skills while traveling around the world and engaging in dangerous missions not for the faint of heart along with his best friend, the other recruit brought in by Storm was Amy Porter, a tech whiz who had been relegated to glorified since she joined the CIA right out of high school due to her technical know how. Joey and Amy formed a blistering romance and the CIA's dynamic duo became a trio. Early on in Joey's CIA tenure, there were whispers of a global organization known as DRAGO that had their teeth sunk into everything. The trio of operatives, had been chasing this organization all around the world and during this pursuit, forces began to emerge beyond the comprehension of normal man. Whether it was demons in Japan, evil ninjas with unimaginable abilities or strange aliens, the United States took notice that they were lacking in the protection department of these extraordinary threats. To remedy this threat, the government began to use their technology to develop their own Ranger program and tasked Commander Storm with putting a team together to wield this power and serve as the face of the effort to defend the planet against all threats human, alien, and otherwise. To everyone's surprise including his, Joey was chosen to lead the team as the new Red Ranger. For the first time since his QB days in high school, the Triggerman will be forced into a situation to lead a team to victory but on a much grander scale where losing will result in a lot more than a few extra laps at practice.

Name: Alexander "Alex" Clement Age: 23 Ranger Designation: Red Eagle Ranger Personality: Calling Alex a free spirit would be an understatement to say the least. Under normal circumstances, Alex thrives on both living and thinking outside of the box, living his life with as few restrictions as possible. He is usually very laid back but will not hesitate to jump into action when he sees that the freedom to live and be as one sees fit is threatened for himself or his friends or family. His desire to feel as free as possible has led him to become an adrenaline junkie, constantly seeking out the next thrill in search for the ultimate high. History: Alex grew up as the youngest of three children. As the youngest sibling, he enjoyed many of the benefits of being the baby, primarily dealing with his parents giving him considerably more leeway compared to his older siblings where there was much more pressure on them to fit within a certain societal box. As a child, he developed an obsession for thrill seeking while watching the X Games and seeing these extreme sports where it looked like the athletes were experiencing such joy and felt so free in the air or in the water. As he grew older, his obsession evolved from simply watching extreme sports to participating from skateboarding to bungee jumping and eventually evolving into jumping out of airplanes, consistently upping the degree of difficulty as it had become almost an addiction with Alex being a functional adrenaline junkie. On his 16th birthday, his parents surprised him with a car followed by a skydiving trip. Instead of the normal, planned dive, young Alex called an audible and jumped without the parachute, opting to throw the parachute out of the airplane door and then catching it as he was inspired by the idea of the rumored Banzai skydiving for which there was no record of completing successfully. Things began to take a turn for the worst as a strong wind, took his bag off course, causing it to fly out of reach. Just as it was beginning to sink in that he may have pushed his luck one too many times, a large eagle appeared, pushing his parachute in Alex's direction, allowing him to open it and complete the dive safely. To this day, his friends and family still do not believe his story as they thought that he was just seeing things in the sky when in reality, that eagle not only saved his life but changed his life in ways that were not quite seen just yet. Beast Spirit: Eagle Spirit Beast Spirit Personality: The Eagle Spirit is the complete opposite of Alex in terms of personality. While Alex is a free spirit that believes in few restrictions and living your life to the fullest, the Eagle Spirit is more rigid, believing in order, proper planning, and operating inside of whatever proverbial box that is set for him. Because of this personality clash, he and Alex are always at odds, even though the pair care deeply for one another. Fears: Alex is claustrophobic and also has a fear of never being able to achieve that ultimate high that he felt when the eagle spirit saved him when he was a teenager.

Name: Derek Chase Age: 30 Ranger Designation: Shift Steel Silver Ranger Ranger Gear/Weapons: Shift Key, Silver Shifter, Trinity Lance Personality: Outgoing and driven, Derek is a man with a high motor as his profession is one that demands constant energy. While his consistently energetic demeanor may be draining for some, his friends appreciate that he never changes. Derek is extremely loyal and with that loyalty comes a willingness to help whenever it is needed. As a wealthy man, Derek is surprisingly approachable, yet surprisingly frugal, as he is always looking to save a buck whenever he can. History: Born to a family who believed that it was your brain and the work you put in that would get you far in life, Derek grew up without the opportunity to get into athletics like other kids. Instead, his only opportunities for having social life came with chess and math clubs. Unknown to his parents, it was with these clubs that his passion for gaming was born for these clubs and the people in them taught him skills such as timing, strategy, hand-eye coordination and the willingness to take risks. The best part about his new passion is that because it wasn't physically demanding, he had little trouble hiding his hobby from his parents. During his senior year, Derek began entering professional tournaments, winning events ranging from Madden to Fortnite, to Pokemon VCG. While the success and the bonds he made with his fellow gamers made him happy, it caused a rift between him and his parents because he was on a path that they believed to be fruitless. Upon graduating from high school, made the ultimate gamble and chose to forego college to become a full time pro gamer. For the next two years, Derek continued to win many tournaments and enjoy much success but wanted to do more with the platform he was blessed with. As a result, he started his own gaming company with a video service to rival that of Youtube and Twitch that gives gamers a better chance to not only have fun but also earn money while giving others an opportunity to show off all of their technical skills. Five years later, Dream Chasers has become a Fortune 500 company, making Derek a millionaire and a member of the top 30 under 30 club as per Forbes. As things couldn't be better for the young millionaire, but life as he knew it would be at risk and now his skills as a pro gamer would be put to the test in the ultimate game for survival. After the defeat of the Space Pirates, Derek was widely regarded in Ranger circles as one of the best tacticians in the world, doing what should be impossible by using video games to implement high level strategies that were used to help take out their long time adversaries. But with all great strategies, it's almost impossible to account for every single scenario and it was one mistake that in his eyes, cost Derek everything. During an attack on one of the cities, his group was tasked with defending from the Tok'ra Empire, the group was outgunned and out of position. Retreat was the clear and easy solution so that everyone may live to fight another day. Confident that he could overcome these odds, Derek went against the obvious choice and came up with a plan that was met with much resistance, even from his own team but out of their unwavering loyalty to him, some of the Rangers agreed to accompany Derek as they infiltrated one of the empire ships to disable its core engine, rendering it useless. Miraculously, he succeeded in shutting down the engine but what he didn't know was that the ship's was rigged with its own twist on a dead man's switch. As soon as the engine was shut down, it triggered a massive explosion which not only hit the city like a mack truck but killed thousands of people, including fellow Rangers. The fall from grace was swift for the CEO. Many in the Ranger community began to distance themselves from him with others outright wanting to kill him for what he did. Derek went into a severe depression, not only because of how his peers felt about him but also how he felt about himself. He trusted his long time friend Boss to manage what was left of Dream Chasers and before the final confrontation between Earth's heroes and the Empire and once the job was done, he retreated to his lavish home which now felt like a prison where all he could hear were the blood curdling screams of innocent people and fellow Rangers, all dead because of the call he made. Little did he know, with the Empire emerging once again, the former Red Ranger may have one shot to redeem himself and put his demons to bed. Side Notes: Derek has a tattoo of a Play Station logo on his right arm, as a tribute to the first console he ever played.

Name: Darius "Showstopper" Keller Age: 25 Ranger Designation: Red Guild Ranger Weapons/Gear: VS System, Jetrunner Personality: Darius has always been motivated by money, fame, and women. While not a mean person at his core, he has always been driven by the almighty dollar and ultimate glory. Darius' charm tends to endear him to those he comes in contact with but has a mean streak that can come out if someone interferes with his ability to carry out a job. While his style is very flashy, he isn't afraid to get his hands dirty if it means getting the job done. History: As a child, Darius grew up in a middle class family that worked hard to ensure that their kids had everything they needed and wanted within reason. When he was young, Darius was influenced by the likes of Michael Jackson and Prince who always performed with a certain flash about them which translated to everything he did, whether it was sports or any other extra curricular activity. His bold personality also kept him very busy with the girls which inadvertently cost him more lucrative scholarships to the bigger D1 schools because of all of the time he spent behind the bleachers or in the back of the auditorium when he should have been working. Upon graduation, Darius was approached by some less than savory figures, offering him the opportunity to reclaim some of his dwindling fame, the young man jumped at the chance and soon became a mercenary of sorts, robbing everything from banks to art shows to exhibits and engaging in other sinister odd jobs, earning the nickname Showstopper due to his dazzling displays. Several years later, Darius was hired to complete one of the biggest jobs of his career by breaking into SPD, not knowing that his life would forever change the second he said yes. Other: N/A

Name: Aiden Page Age: 25 Personality: Aiden has a very outgoing and charming personality that's primarily attributed to his work as a chef as he was constantly interacting with customers on a daily basis, which normally helped to keep him out of prison, given that he's spent most of his life affiliated with pirates, particularly Zekial's crew. Although very engaging, he sometimes tends to go full on nerd when speaking of food as cooking is his passion. Ranger Designation: Blue Bounty Ranger History: Aiden is the son of Amon Page, the long time Blue Bounty Ranger. Like his father, he developed a passion for cooking at a young age and developed his craft over the years, earning him the nickname Chef Jr. As a child, Aiden would run around the ship while the Rangers at the time were going on raids and living the life of a true pirate. As a child, he also picked up his father's love for swordplay and spent his free time training to become a great swordsman so that when his time came, he could pick up his father's mantle and serve the crew just as he did. Things for Aiden began to take a darker turn as Aiden's dad grew ill. A mysterious illness plagued the long time Ranger and while he did his best to fight off this sickness for years, it got to a point where it became too difficult to manage and Amon lost his life. In his final days, Amon passed off his powers and for Zekial, there was no other choice in his eyes other than the kid he watched grow up in his kitchen thus giving his blessing and officially passing on the Blue Rangers powers to Aiden along with the role of crew chef who swore to do his father proud. Little did Aiden know, not only would he be inheriting his father's title and powers, he'd also inherit his dark burden as the mysterious illness may not be as natural as the new Blue Ranger originally thought. Job/Specialty: Chef/Swordsman

Name: Mateo Alvarez Age: 24 Personality: If the phrase 'pedal to the medal' was in the dictionary, Mateo's face would be next to the definition. Describing Mateo as passionate doesn't do the young man justice. He lives as if there is no tomorrow and carries that mentality into his work as well as his love life. Underneath his fierce loyalty and his endless desire to befriend everyone like family lies a tortured soul who is pained every time he forms bonds then has those bonds ripped from him for the sake of the mission. While his high energy is who he is at his core, some may wonder if his true self may also serve as a mask to hide the pain of loss he's suffered through the years. Ranger Designation: Red Chrono Storm Ranger History: Born in the late 80s, Mateo was the youngest of five children, so all he knew was a big family. His childhood was relatively normal, growing up in a primarily Hispanic community with working class parents doing their best to support all of their children. As he got older, he was plagued by complacency. He was unsure of what to do with his life but he knew he wanted to do something big. Couple that with him being the baby of the family and everyone's desire to coddle Mateo to an extent, left him in a bit of a life limbo. After graduating College, Mateo's chance encounter with a certain ageless wonder would change his life forever, leading him to join the Time Masters Bureau, finally giving Mateo the life of wonder and purpose that he so desperately sought. Fast forward two years and Mateo is fully invested in the TMB. His desire to not be coddled and treated like the baby of the bureau caused him to work hard and push himself to new heights, becoming a fast rising agent, eventually being given Ranger powers like his mentor. Now that he was finally living the life that he always wanted, he would be put to the ultimate test against a new foe that threatens time and space. Mateo is now forced to go from being the loveable baby of the family to the head of the table, leading a new group of Rangers against this new evil and save the timeline as we know it.

Name: Harrison Nelson Age: 33 Ranger Designation: Black Wasp Ranger Previous Ranger Designation: Green Mystic Ranger Weapons/Gear: King Saber, Royal Shield Home Territory: Mystic Force: Dark Age / Mystic Force: Dragon Age Personality: With his stature, one would assume that common words to describe Harrison are bold and outspoken, but that could not be any further from the truth. In any situation, Harrison prefers to use words rather than his fists to achieve a peaceful resolution as he believes that everyone is connected through the planet and doing harm to one another harms Mother Earth. As someone who is almost always in a zen-like happy place, the fastest way to cause Harrison to lose his temper is to cause harm to the innocent. The one thing that Harrison hates even more than violence is a bully and will stop at nothing to protect those who can't protect themselves. History: Growing up as the son of two botanists, Harrison developed an appreciation of the Earth from an early age. As a child, he possessed a drive to protect the planet that his peers considered weird or normal. As a result, he was bullied on many occasions during his childhood. As he grew older, he underwent massive changes to his body by not only getting taller, but gaining muscle that you would normally see from someone who works out frequently. His family couldn't explain it, but he saw his changes to be a gift from the planet as a reward for his loyalty and as he made a promise to protect those in need whenever he could so others wouldn't have to go through what he went through. During his time as the Green Mystic Ranger, Harrison carried a bit of resentment towards Jameson, the team's Red Ranger's hopping into the Dino Steel universe left Harrison's powers unusable as well as his teammates for two years until his return. His heart hurt, primarily because his brother in arms was knee deep in trouble against powerful enemies and he was powerless to help, leaving him unfulfilled as he could not fulfill those right hand man duties and watch his boy's back. After reconciling with Jameson upon his return, they along with the other Mystic Force Rangers took on the Balaur Syndicate. After a hellacious final battle, Harrison thought that things were finally over and that he could rest and return to some level of normalcy. Unfortunately for the resident voice of reason, he was once again called upon to serve the greater good and while everything in him wanted to say no, he couldn't fight the urge to protect, eventually deciding to join this new crusade in a whole new world.

Name: Shun Kurosaki Age: 22 Ranger Designation: SRS Green Ranger Ninja Rank: Jonin Gear/Weapons: Shuriken Morpher, Star Saber Personality: Blunt, unforgiving, direct, and honorable are all words to describe Shun. Not one for socializing takes himself and his work very seriously and takes anything less than perfection very seriously, even if he's the one making the mistake. His code of honor drives his courage to stand behind his convictions, willing to speak up anytime that there is something that clashes with his ninja way. History: Born in the Sound Village, Shun would often visit his relatives in Karakura town as a baby but when he was old enough to walk, his full focus was on training in preparation for the battles to come. Shun was raised in a strict household with little to no time for pleasantries. Although he didn't possess the natural talent of a Sasuke Uchiha or a Neji Hyuga, his sheer force of will and determination allowed him to hone his craft, perfecting Sound Style jutsu that allowed him to quickly rise through the ranks in the Sound Village. At 18, Shun was promoted to the rank of Jonin and early in his Jonin tenure, Orochimaru experimented on the loyal Jonin, able to partially duplicate his sound based jutsu and apply that to technology for other shinobi. Once he turned 19, the Konoha Crush was now in play. Although he was loyal to the STC by way of Orochimaru, he could not bring himself to lay waste to the Hidden Leaf outside of honorable combat. As a result of his perceived betrayal, he was locked away in one of the dungeons in Proto's lair and that is where he remained for the duration of the STC's battle against the Rangers. After Proto's defeat, chaos ensued at Proto's lair, allowing Shun to escape. With his former allies so concerned with themselves, no one thought to go after him. Shun spent the next 2+ years training, killing many of his former comrades, motivated by revenge. With rumors of Orochimaru's location surfacing, Shun was intent on revenge. Little did he know that one little disc was about to alter the trajectory of his life forever.

Name: Paul Cross Age: 25 Ranger Designation: Red Nitro Blaze Ranger Weapons/Gear: Nitro Morpher, Nitro Lightning Sword, Nitro Blaster, Nitro Blade, Red Lightning Nitro Zord Personality: Generally seen as more of a smooth talking people person, Paul's demeanor is normally the opposite of what you what see from someone in his line of work. What is more in line with his work is his strong sense of loyalty. He believes that if he shakes your hand or makes a promise, so when someone breaks a deal with him or betrays his trust, the likelihood is high that they're getting a bullet to the head. History: Born to a middle class family in Louisiana, Paul's childhood was pretty standard...except during Mardi Gras season, but that is a different tale for a different time. His childhood was a pretty happy one with no major trauma, save for some damage here or there when a big hurricane hit. One thing that his parents always tried to instill into him is the value of hard work and your hard work will translate to your level of success in this world. Taking those lessons to heart, Paul made it through high school and opted to serve his country versus college right away and that is when his values would all be tested. During his four year stint with the military, Paul earned high marks and even higher praise from his comrades and his superiors. Shortly after his stint, he was quickly recruited by special forces during which time, he learned just how poorly veterans were treated after serving their country. The benefits paled in comparison to the efforts these men and women put in and the horrors he encountered with some struggling more than others was a direct counter to everything he ever knew. These people all worked hard and had nothing to show for it. Paul became so disenchanted that after leaving special forces, he began to get into weapons dealing, eventually putting him on the path of DRAGO who worked with him as an outside contractor of sorts. Things were looking up for Paul... until some old friends surfaced. Almost two years ago, Paul's private island was invaded by Brooklyn Turner and Joey Brooks. Normally, two against his small army was no big deal bit when one of the two is a Power Ranger and the other is someone you've never been able to beat, it spelled a recipe for disaster. After spending nearly a year locked away in SPD's Delta Command, Paul was freed by Lord Drago during his invasion of Delta Command, leaving Paul free to resume his work. Unfortunately, Paul was captured by Brooklyn again a month or two after during a Saints game in their home stadium to add insult to injury. This time, it was on the order of high ranking government officials who have much wilder intentions than just to let him rot in jail.
