Cryptid File - 4
The Flatwoods Monster
The Flatwoods monster (also known as the Braxton County monster, Braxie, or the Phantom of Flatwoods), is an entity reported to have been sighted in the town of Flatwoods in Braxton County, West Virginia, USA, on September 12, 1952, after a bright object crossed the night sky. The creature was described as having a large pointed "hood-like shape" around the face, eye-like shapes which emitted greenish-orange light, and a dark black or green body. May described the figure as having "small, claw-like hands", clothing-like folds, and "a head that resembled the ace of spades". The creature was said to be approximately 10ft. According to the story, when the figure made a hissing sound and started "gliding" towards the eyewitnesses they fled the area in terror. Some investigators have stated that they believe the light was a meteor and the creature was a barn owl perched in a tree, with shadows making it appear to be a large humanoid. Although many are skeptical of this theory, and the seeming implausibility of multiple different people mistaking a barn owl(which averages at 25cm from head to toe) for a 10 foot hovering entity that hissed and had glowing eyes. The monster seemingly disappeared, but it is still said you can hear the monster hissing in the dead of night in the back woods of West Virginia.

Before I officially start work on Power Rangers Supernova (title, yay!) here’s the (mostly) major villain names too:
Don Armage: Karna Rog (Don Armage is an anagram of Armageddon (missing a d but still) while Karna Rog is an anagram of Ragnarok)
Kukuruga: Mirfak (the brightest star in Perseus, which is what Kukuruga is partially based on)
Akyanba: Schedar (the brightest star in Cassiopeia, which is what she’s partially based on)
Tecchu: Alderamin (the brightest star in Cepheus, which is what I think he’s partially based on)
Scorpio: Eurypto Calchas (Later Antares) (Eurypto is meant to bring to mind Eurypterid, prehistoric sea scorpions, while Calchas is a genus of scorpion. Antares is the brightest star in Scorpius)
Eriedron: Kaus (brightest star in Sagittarius, which is what he’s partially based on)
Ikagen: Skragen (Skull+Kraken, as he’s based on the Kraken and crystal skulls)
Madakko: Calamartia (Calamari+Martian+Marsha since she’s based on octopus-like Martians)
Geth Indaver: Cassius Bodmin (Later Felis) (Cassius is the one who orchestrated the assassination of Caesar, which fits his role in the adaptation in a way. Bodmin is a reference to Bodmin Moor, a location known for the Beast of Bodmin Moor, a Phantom Cat, and Geth Indaver is partially based on Phantom Cats. Felis is the name of a no longer existing constellation, as well as a star that’s part of the Hydra constellation)
Don Aslan: Ankaa (not explaining since it’s massive spoilers for the end of the first season of the adaptation)
Indaver: Greyder (Portmanteau of Grey (aliens that they’re based on), invader, and raider)
Tsuyoindaver: Flatborg (Named after the Flatwoods monster, which they’re based on, and cyborg, since they’re mechanically enhanced Indavers) (As an aside I’m not naming all of the Daikaan which are just modified Tsuyoindaver costumes aside from Ommo Indaver because that would be absolutely miserable)
