#Creepox

[tawneybel]

Power Rangers imagines: Darkonda, Broodwing, Snapper, Stingrage, Creepox.

Yes, good. Silly but cool looking monster requests!

Darkonda: Nice cleavage.

Broodwing: “Brood,” eh?

Snapper: Huh. You don’t see too many turtle scalies.

Sting Rage: His outfit makes him look like he’s wearing a bunch of Slimers, but it’s cooler than that description sounds.

Creepox: A male mantis? Probably wears armor on the off chance he meets a potential mate.

Megaforce Villain Headcanons

Something other than Pizza Tower or Bulgarian Treasure Planet, I know! I’m starting to hyperfixate on Power Rangers again! (I had one before I had this account.) The main one I’m hyperfixating on however, is Megaforce. It’s mainly because of the villains, my favorite being Bluefur. So, naturally, I had to make headcanons of him and the other villains! Enjoy!

Vrak has a sweet tooth. He mainly loves cakes and cookies, mostly chocolate.

Creepox secretly watches My Little Pony in his room. Only Vrak knows about this. He doesn’t dare utter a word about it.

Admiral Malkor has a YouTube channel…that he rarely goes on. When he does go on, he’s confused as to why there are so many shorts and videos. (Vrak constantly steals his phone to make his own videos and shorts.)

Bigs and Bluefur were friends since childhood. (if they ever were children) However, Bluefur has developed a crush on Bigs (that the latter doesn’t know about).

More General Rangers Headcanons

Sixth Rangers are inherently more powerful than the regular Rangers. You'll notice that most can 1v1 difficult enemies that prove challenging to even the Reds of the team (ie.: Zhane (In Space Silver) 1v1'ing Ecliptor). This is because, on a power scale, the Sixth is supposed to balance the team out. A team that can work as individuals and an individual that can work on/with a team

Reds develop an attachment to their Sixth Rangers, be it romantic (Carter Grayson/Ryan Mitchell) or platonic (Leo and Mike Corbett), but it's close and quickly formed

Similarly, Sixth Rangers form quick and close attachments to their Reds, platonic or romantic

Pinks and Blues are either siblings or best friends and there is no in-between

Survivor's Guilt is a powerful force and 90% of the Rangers have it, especially the alien Rangers or those like the Lunar Wolf Wildforce Ranger

Rangers getting discouraged and believing themselves unworthy of the Power is also common, so there's a network of Rangers you can call to help with that kind of stuff

If you don't already have fantastic spatial awareness, you develop it pretty quick as a Ranger. It's damn near impossible not to because of all the attacks by Monsters, Bugs, etc

Red Rangers can give orders to their teams and the Power will give little pushes for the other Rangers to following it, but that doesn't mean the other Rangers can't refuse of their own volition

The Morphin' Grid affords its Rangers a form of immortality. They can be fatally injured, but otherwise, Rangers are effectively immortal

Some Rangers go on to become police officers, but most Rangers agree that working to assist and help people (ie.: lifeguards, doctors, breaking ground in the science fields) is best. Some of them establish dojos to train people to protect themselves (Tommy Oliver) and others work with volunteer efforts (Troy Burrows)

Veteran Rangers, Reds especially, tend to hang back during crossover events- this is to give the new Reds the confidence in themselves and their abilities, and allow them to grow into their leadership. The only exception was Forever Red, because Jason is a little bit of a control freak. He's the oldest Red, it's his right

When a Ranger is in a battle that forces them into demorph (i.e.: Gia, Jake, and Noah (Megaforce) against Creepox) the other teammates will be supremely worried and clingy, this is because of a trauma bond each team shares, but also because seeing someone you love get so hurt in a battle that they lose their ability to hold their morphs is fucking terrifying.

On that note, other Ranger teams will check in after those battles because seeing your successors get demorphed in the middle of battle is also something terrifying

Also on that note, some Rangers have specific nightmares in which they don't make it out of those demorph fights alive

The TMNT do on occasion pop out of the New York sewers to assist in a battle or two with the Ranger teams

Rangers who have martial arts skills (Ninja Storm, Jungle Fury, Samurai, Ninja Steel, etc) stick together, much like Rangers who are from or went to space

The techs of the teams have secret channels that they use to make "communication devices" (cell phones) so that Rangers don't have to rely on their morphers to communicate as well as being able to communicate with other Rangers and teams

Bulk and Skull have been linked so tightly with the Rangers that they've been kidnapped several times, only to be let go when it's been clear they aren't Rangers themselves

Junior Rangers have a chat, kids that helped Rangers (Heather, Jordon, etc.) have linked up and compared notes. They know of or know each other and most of them are tightly linked together

Possibility of more later, I didn't expect more than one post lol

Hello!

This is the HD version of my Cameo request number 4 I made to acting legend Eric Roberts (Julia Roberts' big brother) and the request goes like this: I started watching Lifetime’s Stalked by My Doctor franchise and I liked it however I must admit that I was a bit skeptical due to my usual ethical crime fighting instincts against craze creepoxes like Dr Beck. My message to Doctor Beck is I’m the Bounty Huntress who is going to capture and escort you to jail in the name of the law!!! As previously stated, I am 37 years old from Philadelphia Pennsylvania and I love to dance and sing in my spare time and make earrings and bracelets. In addition, watching Eric Roberts being fierce on TV and Film. For some reason I favor Alexander Grady more than Dr Beck because Alexander is a warrior of justice and Dr Beck is a total creepox! I guess it’s a woman’s intuition to root for the underdog characters who are the good guys and combat all forces of evil Either way I still adore Mr. Roberts. I am too smart to fall for Dr. Beck's tricks and I am a happy woman!! I watched DWTS and I think you did well in The Top 10!! Congrats! Mr. Roberts and thank you very much I adore you even MORE than ever!! PS. I already bought a copy of your book, and I am going to read it this weekend! Please say hello to Mrs. Roberts and your stepchildren for me and thanks again sir!!

No one has ever call me "Doll" before and he's the first!!

WANNA RANT ABOUT SOMETHING IN PR THAT IS SO TERRIBLY WRONG THAT IT HURTS YOU TO YOUR CORE?!!!

One word: Megaforce

This was an anniversary season but it was just rubbish I mean there was so much wrong with the season (not gonna lie 12 year old me loved it and I was there on Nick every morning at 8 but looking back it was just no) I mean the characters I like (some what I mean Troy is just no but then on the other hand Gia and Orion) but it was so painful to just watch them ram messages and all these story arcs and characters at us without ACTUALLY developing any of it like one thing that really winds me up... Emma, episode 6 in the woods with Troy "singing to the trees reminds me of her" Why? Did something happen? Is she dead? Is she just recalling a memory? Do we get any sort of explanation... Noooo what do we get 'hold up we're gonna be late for school' and getting our ears murdered by whats his face, you see there was too much going on and not enough time to make it all make sense you. This season is known for being comically bad I mean it gave away a huge plot point within 5 minutes, Troy was more robotic than the LITERAL ROBOT, the only character with any backstory was Orion, Emma was queen of getting hurt or into the most ridiculous situations ever, Noah spent all season being all annoyed about being second hand to Jake or whatever his issue was, the only character trait Gia got was she had a soft spot for close people (Emma specifically) Jake was just the jock who had a crush... Gosei was pretty useless in terms of ACTUALLY mentoring the team Tensou was decent but half the time he was just there.

The villains... ugh... Vrak was good to some extent, Creepox was just pining for Troy's attention til he got rejected and destroyed, Malkor was just there to piss Creepox off, Super Megaforce ugh everytime I felt like I heard Vekar's name I just wanted to find the nearest cliff, Levira was pretty good I like her but that episode where she loved Jake just... was wrong I like the episode but I was just kinda put off at her skills and that idk, Damaras was great sometimes but it was just eh, Argus just had a crush on Noah all he ever went on about outside of the generalised ranger stuff all it was was 'blue ranger this, blue ranger that... blue blue blue blue' I mean come on dude and then Emperor whatever his name is and the other two were just irrelevant so I'm not even gonna mention them mostly because the most I remember was that decent shot on the ship with Orion and Troy kicking the hell out of the Emperor

The episodes were meh I mean I loved the one where Emma did all the plans in a like 2 minutes, but there episodes where kinda boring like I could tell you something that happened in the season but I have no clue what episode it was in or what happened next or before that it's just been a bit dry

The amount of stock footage was just ridiculous though like it was the same fights and zords and what not over and over and over

The chemistry with the characters where ok and all but nothing stands out about it

Ranger Rankings - Power Rangers Megaforce

I couldn't decide whether Megaforce and Super Megaforce should be one, like Samurai and Super Samurai were, or not, but they're so different that I think they deserve it.

Premise - 2.5

It's Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers with a re-skin, and it doesn't really pretend to be otherwise. Like it's literally the same premise, right down to the giant talking head and the aliens from outer space. I like the nostalgia factor, but it's far too basic for what Power Rangers should be at this point. It's not bad, and it's reliable, but we can do better.

Character Dynamics - 2

This frustrated me a lot. There's so much that they could have done with these characters, but they don't. Like, they're thrown together, and they're obviously all from different worlds, so there should have been some growing pains, right? But no, they're all together, they have to fight as a team, so they just...do.

While it's nice to see them all get along, it would have been a little more realistic if theyd' butted heads a bit more. Or if we'd seen more of why like Jake and Noah were friends before this, given that they're so different, or how Troy felt being the total outsider being thrust into the team leader position.

And they're all pretty static in terms of character arcs. Aside from Jake getting up the courage to ask Gia out, they don't evolve much beyond their original characters when we're first introduced to them.

I know Troy's kind of looked down on for being wooden, but I think he did a decent job with it. The other actors are all fairly solid, but Jayden still gets the prize for blandest Red Ranger if you ask me, unfortunately.

I would really have liked them to spend more time with the characters in this season, since there's almost no time to do so in Super Megaforce, but we'll get to that next time.

Oh, and Gosei's a waste, honestly. He's a big talking head, but he doesn't do anything in the way of mentoring the Rangers as opposed to just telling them to do things. Tensou's neurotic, but he's less annoying than Alpha was at least. And Ernie and Mr. Burley are just there for punchlines - I don't think either of them actually add to the plot at all.

Sixth Ranger Arc - 4

Robo Knight's arc is easily the best part of Megaforce. Learning to be a team player, to care about people as much as he does the planet, is a good arc to go through, and the fact that it takes five or six episodes for him to get there rather than just learning it all in one go and then becoming a generic Sixth Ranger was a nice change.

It all kind of comes home to roost in the Christmas episode, of all things, where he gives us all the clips from past episodes with his own understanding of how the Rangers/humans work. It's a nice end cap.

It's a shame he disappears for so long after the end of Megaforce, although I get why. It does make the first few episodes of Super Megaforce have a bit more of an impact though, especially Troy's determination to find him again, and when he returns right at the end of Super Megaforce, it's nice to see an old friend.

He also only gets brainwashed once, and that's only in Super Megaforce, so he beats out other robot characters like Blue Centurion automatically.

Plot Development - 3

Megaforce has a lot going on in terms of plots, even if they're all mostly the same thing - it's just different factions of villains taking it in turns to try and destroy the Earth.

The Insectoids are okay, although it's clear the writers didn't think the whole 'bugs vs. humans' thing through because they run out of recognisable bugs fairly early on.

The Toxic Mutants sideplot works only because it goes hand in hand with Robo Knight's arc about protecting the planet, otherwise they're just a sidebar with no real point.

And then we get the real cream of the season, Vrak's robots, for the final third.

I will say though, the final few episodes are very good, and the last shots with the Armada attacking and the cliffhanger ending to the series are great. It's a shame Super Megaforce rolls it all back in like two episodes though.

While most of Megaforce doesn't feel as much like a plot progression as it does the set-up changing and the plot staying still, it does mean we get some different questions to consider with each new villain group, and it does build to a satisfying conclusion at least.

Villains - 3

For a season with so many enemies, there's not many that actually stand out.

Creepox is decent, but Malkor's just generic shout-y villain.

Bigs and Blufur have some kind of personalities at least, but neither of them are particularly interesting.

Vrak's easily the standout, because he's meant to be - he follows through into next season, and he's the main link between the villains in Megaforce and the ones in Super Megaforce since he's Vekar's brother. But he's also the most actually villainous, and he has the most personality of them all too.

I did enjoy Metal Alice though; for a robot, she had some really good development. I especially enjoyed the fact that she took away some of Vrak's 'humanity' by making him half-robot, and then he leaves her to die because he doesn't care about her any longer. Poetic justice. And she admired him without falling all over him like she was in love, when that was the easy route to take.

Also, loogies. Loogies. Loogies. Why?

Overall - 2.90

Hottest Ranger - Probably Troy, because jawline. Jake had a really nice smile though. I'll talk more about Noah next season.

Notable Episodes:

Harmony And Dizchord - Emma has a lovely singing voice and defeats the monster of the week with it. Yeah, that's it.

Last Laugh - Robo Knight and Noah, the two characters without a discernible sense of humour, must make a villain laugh to beat him.

The Messenger/End Game - Because the finales are almost always the best part of the season.

❝ Fury of the Dragon! Megaforce Red! ❞ 

Troy Burrows is Megaforce Red, the Red Ranger and leader of the Mega Rangers. Before becoming a Power Ranger, Troy was a martial artist. During his teenage years, he receives visions about the Legend War - an armada of Power Rangers battling an unknown evil force, and among them, a mysterious new warrior. After one such dream, he woke up to discover that he was late for his first day of school. Later that day, Gosei summoned him and four others. He noted how the statues of other past Rangers lining the walls resembled those from his dreams. Gosei gave him the power of the Red Ranger, and soon he led the new Power Rangers into battle against the Warstar. The team won, and Troy rapidly adjusted to his new role as one of the defenders of Earth.

With his team, Troy & the Megarangers managed to defeat Vrak but were then faced with the armada of Prince Vekar. Vekar sent millions of X Borgs & Bruisers down to attack Earth. The Rangers attempted to fight them off but were quickly overwhelmed until the Legendary Rangers arrived from throughout the multiverse & helped the Mega Rangers save the Earth, in turn realizing Troy’s once ominous dreams.

Troy is a born leader, though he may not know it yet. His tough upbringing made him responsible and focused, and it shows in his incredible martial arts skills. As the new kid in town, he's kind of a loner at the start, but makes fast friends when he joins up with the Megaforce Rangers. Troy is compassionate and loyal, and a true champion of the underdog. But mess with the Red Ranger's friends, and they are in for a fierce fight with him and his Dragon Zord. Additionally, Troy has a strong faith in humanity and believes that if they work together, they can do anything. He also will not initiate a fight unless it's absolutely necessary, shown in his first encounter with Creepox, a general of the Warstar Insectoid aliens.

After getting into Babylon 5 and Buffy the Vampire Slayer I see Creepox's mum and dad made a name for themselves in the 90s.

[oohfaced-blog]

Sorry this is lateish, I had an early night and decided to put the review off until I got up in the morning. At least I was rewarded by an episode that wasn't as terrible as last weeks...although it still wasn't great.

❝ Flames of the Phoenix! Megaforce Pink! ❞

Evan Goodall is Megaforce Pink of the Mega Rangers. Evam was taking photos of butterflies and insect life when he came upon Creepox at the edge of a forest. To his surprise, he was teleported to meet Gosei, the protegee of the legendary Zordon, and asked to become the new Pink Mega Ranger. 

With his team, Evan & the Megarangers managed to defeat Vrak but were then faced with the armada of Prince Vekar. Vekar sent millions of X Borgs & Bruisers down to attack Earth. The Rangers attempted to fight them off but were quickly overwhelmed until the Legendary Rangers arrived from throughout the multiverse & helped the Mega Rangers save the Earth.

Evan Goodall is totally in tune with nature, and always on the lookout to protect the environment. He’s been best friends with Gia since they were little, despite their different personalities. He enjoys BMX bike riding and photography in the Harwood Forest, as well as singing. Like Kimberly, Evan speaks in a valley girl accent and is very feminine. Evan has an easy-going attitude and a very positive personality. He always tries to block out negative vibes with positive ones. He's a big dreamer and enjoys to see others happy.
