Red Ranger
Name: Josephine Taylor (Jo)
Age: 19 (physically) 25 (on paper)
Gender: Female
Hair: Mousey brown, reaches halfway down her back,
more often than not in a ponytail
Eyes: Brown
History: Was eighteen when she got caught up in the
start of the Elfame Realm invasion of Earth and became the Red Power Ranger, their leader, in
order to protect people. She hadn’t felt ready to be the leader of the Rangers
but had tried her best until the night of the her nineteen birthday, when
during a Team Building exercise/her Birthday party the Rangers got a call out
and were tricked by the bad guys into entering Elfame.
Though
it only felt like an hour or two to the Rangers, who were all entertaining
thoughts of continuing the party when they escaped, when they emerged from Elfame
they found to their horror that they returned not the same night but the day of
Jo’s 25th birthday and
that in their absence the Fae folk had overrun the world and the humans are
living in zones warded by cold iron and salt.
The
Rangers make their reappearance by defending the nearest Zone, which is under
attack when they get there, looking for information.
Jo’s
one of the lucky ones. Her family made it to one of the Zones, but trying to
explain her six year absence wasn’t easy and she ended up having to show her
parents and brother what she was in order to have them stop thinking she had
run off on them.
Zord: Red Gryphon
Pink Ranger
Name:
Stacy Prisby
Age:
21 (mentally/physically), 27 (on paper)
Gender:
Female
Hair:
Dark brown, almost black hair that’s curly and reaches just past shoulder
length.
Eyes:
Brown.
History:
Was 21 when she was caught up in the invasion from the Elfame Realms and became
the Pink
Power Ranger in order to help her friends fight against the
intruders. She was the one who helped Jo decide where to go for her birthday
when they remembered that Brian was a year under the drinking age.
Worked
with Phones in the call centre before they were trapped in Elfame, but started
working for Jo’s family who own a couple of apartments as a repair man and in exchange
lives rent free in one of the apartments and is a welcome guest anytime in the
Taylor family home (Yes, they know she’s a Ranger too).
None
of Stacy’s family made it into a Zone, but Jo’s family go out of their way to
make her feel like part of the family. They did take in Stacy’s cat though, who
had been at the vets with Jo’s when the Rangers vanished.
Zord: Pink Pegasus
Blue Ranger
Name: Scott Dee
Age: 19 (mentally/physically), 25 (on paper)
Gender: Male
Hair: Shoulder length, straight dark blonde hair.
Eyes: Grey.
History: Scott was nineteen when he got caught up in
the invasion from the Elfame Realms and became the Blue
Power Ranger. Though at the time he was concerned with saving people
he had been a long term follower of the Power Rangers teams that had emerged
over the centuries and the ‘this is so cool’ factor was often a thing when he
was presented with new weapons or Zords.
When
he emerged from Elfame, Scott found it difficult to get a job, but he had
always been a film buff and had been planning to take a Film Studies course. He
managed to get an intern position at the TV station and was often sent out with
the news crew, allowing him to get close to the action before morphing without
anyone thinking that he was out of place.
Scotty’s
brother, his brother’s wife and his nephew all made it to the Zone the Rangers
find when they’re looking for signs of people when they leave Elfame, but his
parents ended up in a different Zone while looking for Scott.
Zord: Blue Wolf
Green Ranger
Name: Brian Higgs
Age: 17 (mentally/physically), 23 (on paper)
Gender: Male
Hair: Short, always messy, brown hair.
Eyes: Green.
History: Brian had been 17 and on his way home from
work when the invasion from the Elfame Realm happened and he became the Green Power
Ranger purely because he could and it would be cool to be able to
kick the fae folk’s rear end. It was because Brian wouldn’t have been able to
join them at a pub or the like that the Rangers decided to go ten-pin bowling
for Jo’s nineteenth birthday where they were trapped by the Fae Folk for six
years.
Upon
emerging from Elfame, Brian went back to doing exactly what he had been doing
before, minus the job since it hadn’t stayed open for him, which was playing
games and getting pushed around by his little brother who had safely made it to
the Zones with their mother.
His
good friend, Phones, made it to the Zones too and the two often hang out
whenever Stacy isn’t working at the call centre for emergencies where she often
gives the Rangers a heads up on trouble before it gets too far, by phoning
Brian or Jo, who Brian introduced her to.
Zord: Green Stag
Black Ranger
Name: Louise Post
Age: 20 (physically/mentally), 26 (on paper)
Gender: Female
Hair: Shoulder length unruly dirty blonde hair
Eyes: Grey-blue
History: Louise was twenty and somewhat of a bookworm
when she was caught up in the invasion from the Elfame Realms and became the Black Power Ranger, though she chose to
do so in order to try and eventually find out if a peaceful solution could be
reached. She hadn’t originally been planning to attend Jo’s birthday party but
had gone along after it had been arranged for them to go do something
interesting instead of all meet up at a pub and get very drunk.
When
she re-emerged from Elfame after their six year captivity, despite the absence,
Louise was the only Ranger able to find a job easily, as she had been training
to be an accountant before she had been captured by the Fae folk. She went into
politics when she saw how badly the humans were organised and how much help
they needed to regain a more stable society but hid her Ranger identity so no
one knew that she was a Ranger. When it finally did come out to the public she
said something along the lines of “I didn’t want people voting for me because
they were afraid of my power or because I saved their lives or because of the
Team’s popularity. I wanted people to vote for me because I’m the best choice.”
Louise’s
parents didn’t make it to the Zones, but her siblings did and Martin (now 24)
does what he can to look after the twins, Gary (14) and Tamsin (14), while
Louise helps, supplementing the income where she can and being there for her
siblings.
Zord: Black Bear
