Im rewatching jungle fury and i noticed that i never see any one talk about Whiger? Especially the relationship and dynamic between him and Casey. I mean presumably in this world not everyone has a spirit animal that they can connect to / fight with. So that further deepens there connection, then he fact that Casey is there for him as he is dying.

Also presuming that Casey is the first one to show this “killing tiger monster/spirit” kindness. I think there’s a strong possibility they probably understood each other on a more deeper spiritual level as they were both tigers.

I’m not an expert, but I feel like Casey background was probably very lonely as when we see him in the beginning of the show, he’s a cub. We don’t see him have any meaningful connections (And on top of that being picked on by Jared). I think it would’ve been interesting to try and keep him alive for a few more episodes and see how that would’ve affected the story and Casey; Maybe we would see Whiger grow.

I would like to have seen more connection to his background as a cub and everyone else technically having a Headstart before him.

If he had to die, I would’ve liked maybe a more impact on Casey’s costume, maybe a new weapon / power / Zord? I feel like Whiger was used as a single episode instead of something to build off of. I think it would be really cool if Casey had two spirit, animals, tiger, and white tiger. Though, that may be showing some favoritism, what can I say? I like Casey! (I would love to have seen where their relationship would have gone if Whiger had lived tho)

Anyway, as you can tell, I’m just a crazy Power Rangers fan. Who’s definitely overthinking a single episode with one throwaway monster.

Rise of the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers!

What if MMPR got an animated series in a similar vein to Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles?

Take a look at the main cast in this fun lil design series I’m gonna be working on

[wildissylupus]

Ummm guys??

You know my Power Ranger AU???

Alright so apparently the next season of Overwatch is a power rangers themed season? Kind of reminiscent of how the Starwatch season was a Starwars themed season.

....I didn't even theorize that this would happen?? I just saw some funky fan skins and thought "huh let's make an AU out of this!"

Which one of you fucks works for for Blizzard?? This has happened to many times to be a coincidence!!

The Fire Academy uniforms for the Ninja Storm AU.

Compare to the Wind and Thunder ones these have the same leather like material used in creating them but they do things differently unlike the other schools. The colors on their uniforms like the canon uniforms reflect a student’s elemental affinity, the belt pendant represents a persons second dynamic(most students being A♦️). From the chest and shoulder is a corsage of flowers that indicate ranking( @augment-techs gave me some inspiration for this)

1st)Genin-White Fleabanes and varying flowers

2nd)Chunin-Yellow Dandelions and varying flowers

3rd)Jonin-Blue Chicories and varying flowers

4th)Sensei/Master-Red Dahlias and Lotuses

Wave, Earth and Fire each have their own pendants differentiating from the Wind and Thunder ones. Fire here has a diamond theme resembling blooming flames as a flower formation. They two have variations with the first being for regular students, second with the star outline being more for advanced students and the final which resembles more of a sun like mandala for sensei’s and special members. Some inspiration I got for these designs aside from Ninja Storm was the Fire Nation attire in Avatar along with Kai in Ninjago(I actually do have an oc who has a sort of Azula dynamic story wise here👀🔥).

an interesting little contrast i'm experiencing compared to my previous run is that while Arvid at least entertained the idea of becoming a mind flayer himself, Iona just... categorically rejected even its very thought.

(but look at how cool she looked in this scene, OOH I love her backlit in red like this)

i'm kinda taking a break in going through the endgame (it's very cold right now in my apartment, so I'm like shivering as I'm sitting at the computer, doesn't make for very pleasant gaming lol), but I think I've mentioned before that Iona's trust in the Emperor has been far flimsier than Arvid's, or even the Emperor's in her, from the very start.

It was definitely a very far-rippling blunder on the Emperor's part, to take the face of Iona's (then only recently ex-)husband, which kinda tipped her off that something was up far faster than he would have otherwise revealed his cards. (It made sense for him to choose it though, it's easily the most prominent face in her mind, and the one she has the most intense, if mixed emotions about.)

Not to mention that she, being an elf, almost never truly sleeps, but only meditates, during which she's still essentially conscious.

I personally headcanon that that alone was enough to make it so she could keep her wits, and her rational mind about her even in her "dreams", more than Arvid could- making her healthy suspicions far harder to overcome, and, also making it far easier for her to lie, and string the Emperor along.

Like, as it's her little habit not to cut off a potential escape route until it's unavoidable, she made the Emperor believe that he had her in his palm, even though she never had any real intention of embracing her "illithid potential". (something something men are always willing to believe that a woman is weak, even if said man is now a mind flayer)

So when this scene of deciding whether to become illithid came up, not only was she already well primed to not believe a word the Emperor was saying.... she, unlike Arvid, is also just very simply far too selfish for that kind of sacrifice, I think.

(he kind of needed to be talked out of it, but as a result of her immediate and vehement rejection, I believe I missed out on some really cute dialogue from Astarion. it's okay tho, that's why I save every five steps or so, this is what reloads are for lol)

(either way, we're probably gonna go through the sewers this time because MAN i don't wanna do the courtyard fight today holy shit)

I am typing this at 12:30 am after being out for 7 hours walking and standing nonstop so I apologize if my tappings make no sense

anyways I think chris would’ve given the team some alien steroids, since they’re humans, and weak. like try dropping them from 30 feet high, or put them against an alien with 500 years of experience, they’re so fragile. but then he realized he gave alien steroids to *teenagers*, not just regular old plain human adults. cue to duncan holding a fucking bus over his head going on an absolute power trip, he’s having the time of his life

I also personally think that they deserve to get dna from their animals as a treat. just, y’know, some minor mutations that would help them out in battle but become massive nuisances outside of battle. courtney should become a kibby as a treat. they’re full of alien drugs, animal dna and puberty hormones. do you see it

-mmpr anon

NOT GONNA LIE I THOUGHT ZORDON ALREADY PUT THEM ON SOME SORT OF ALIEN STEROIDS IN THE SHOW... But yeah, Chris would absolutely do that. 💀

Okay "alien steroids" is a bit of an exaggeration, but I do believe there's some sort of power-up happening there. My Power Rangers knowledge in general is rusty, I watched one of the many TV shows sporadically as a kid (ie whenever it was on the lobby TV at my sister's karate dojo) so like... Lol.

But I've recently watched the episode in season 1 of MMPR where Tommy/The Green Ranger loses his powers cuz Rita put a spell on a candle, and like... Dude mentions physically getting weaker and feeling drained without his powers, so there's SOMETHING THERE. Tommy Green Ranger come back I miss you

I'll likely not include the candle-thing in the AU, cuz that was kind of silly and also the Green Ranger is... kind of my favorite in this show, so I ain't getting rid of him that easily. 😈 Will have fun with the Island of Illusions plot, though.

In the AU, I'd imagine this is how Noah gets enough upper-body strength to hold ranged weapons. Also yes, Duncan would throw a bus at someone. He will DO THAT !!!!

As for the minor mutations thing...? Nodding, nodding. First thing that came to mind were the mutations from the MMPRxTMNT comics which IS NOT WHAT YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT BUT—

Harold made them fursonas, I guess.

I'm not sure if I can do the minor mutations thing, but I'll try to toss in some nods to their zord-buddies in their designs, regardless. 😈

I've also been thinking about Bulk and Skull, and what I'd do with them in this AU. In the show, they're meant to be seen as bullies, but to me? They're losers, first and foremost. Above all else, they are losers. Losers trying to overcompensate by trying to be intimidating bullies. So I've given the role of bumbling loser to Cody—

Also let's be so heckin real right now, these guys would NOT get bullied. They are the bullies.

[wanderingchocolateeclair]

May I introduce my Space Rangers AU, just a teeny tiny bit?

At least- some initial doodles including some designs for it-

While there are a lot of other characters that have fun designs and backstories for this au, these four (+ Rusty) are the main focus for now-

They're space experiments, escapees from A.F.O (not the person), an organisation that experiments and tries to create perfect beings using solar and lunar energy extracted from suns and moons!

Brief character info:

PL:

Was stolen as a child from Earth and experimented on, ended up busting out and saving a bunch of the other kids.

Took them to Yuuei (a built up safe haven for all, home of the space rangers)

Ended up going on some adventures with Ecto, who was now his best friend that would tag along with anything.

Became a ranger captain and eventually built a crew with Ecto

They accept odd jobs and commissions, no matter the manner of them, and get money through them (+occasionally thieving things)

He ends up rescuing and breaking out more experiments from different A.F.O bases, and takes them to Yuuei for safety.

Rescued Rusty, who was in the animal space trade, and now looks after him and treasures him.

Hes about 70% space rock and metal and random alien blood at this point-

Loves to visit earth to get the snacks there.

Ecto:

Was a royal from a planet with constantly shifting gravity, so his body allows him to just kinda switch his own sense of gravity around if that makes sense-

(he can just vibe on the ceiling whenever he wants lol)

Also has this shadowy bone demon that lives within him/as part of him.

Got stolen and his planet kinda got wiped out, and off he went to go get experimented on.

He was supposed to be 'scrapped' but survived bc of Higari.

They made friends with each other when still young, Higari saved Ecto from being killed and he helped him break out.

Ever since then, he stuck with him and became a ranger with him (also ended up falling for him and becoming a huge mess about it)

He really likes the sweets that Higari gets him from Earth.

Tsunagu:

From an ancient civilisation that is now long gone, his entire kind was wiped out after him and a other kids got stolen by A.F.O.

Was part of the original experiments carried out by the actual AFO(person) before Tsunagu kinda went rogue, killed him, destroyed the original base and fled.

He is OLD as fuck.

He would qualify as a "royal" but wouldn't use that title, as within his civilisation they were all perceived as noble beings.

He can shapeshift, never shows his natural form due to insecurities with how he was experimented on, and trust issues.

The experiment on him went VERY wrong, and he was accidentally injected with the Solar energy of an ancient Celestial Solar Being :]

It inhabits his being and goes rogue sometimes. It is searching for its "Home", which happens to be its other half - an ancient lunar being <3

He is dangerous and grouchy as hell, but has a sense of humour deep down.

Also met Higari and his crew by being broken out of jail by him and now constantly relies on him to break him out of jail. Very often.

He's a captain of his own ship and crew.

Shinya:

Was stolen from earth quite a long time ago as a baby and not only experimented on, but raised by the scientists.

He was brainwashed and all that jazz to become one of their "higher functioning mercenaries".

He aided in their schemes and killing for quite the long time until he was sent on a mission out to earth.

This didn't go well, and he ended up losing all of his memory to do with A.F.O and space and only knew the information he was given to fit in: "Shinya Kamihara, age 33, scientist and medic for space exploration"

He came back out to space on an expedition and it went wrong, he got stranded with important dangerous stuff, and eventually gets helped by Higari and his crew and meets Tsunagu.

The rest is all a very long plot. He has to find out who he was and is.

He has hidden markings from his experiment mercenary days, and only certain circumstances/equipment/technology can reveal it.

He also, mirroring Tsunagu's predicament, is the host for the Celestial Lunar Being that is searching for it's home.

:)

Rusty:

The Bestest Boy

Is a Space Travelling Dinosaur

He is small, very huggable, and likes to eat seeds and nuts and occasionally anything else thats handed to him.

Rescued by Higari from being traded in the space trade.

He can blow lil sparkly galaxy bubbles from his nose-beak-thing, and step on them if he wants to.

He is The Best Space Ranger.

I hc that Kendall has been doing different types of fighting training since she was young.

Thoughts?

I'd like to think that G-Ma Betty (aka the MVP) allowed her to do fighting training on the side when she was younger. Going along with my strict Christian parents headcanon, Betty was definitely against how oppressive they were (especially with their beliefs) and saw how much potential Kendall had (both intellectually and as a fighter) and wanted to nurture it. I think since Betty is older and likely grew up in a time where women weren't really allowed to have choices or opportunities or self-expression like in the current time, she wants to make sure Kendall gets that chance.

Luckily, Betty has a close neighbor who actually does do fighting training for a living, and after understanding Kendall's situation, they offer to train her for free. Under the pretense of hanging out or Bible study, Kendall is often sent to Betty's house on weekends and summers, and she becomes adept at many different fighting styles. Also, unlike her parents, who taught her to constantly be quieter and trivialize her own feelings so she doesn't "cause a scene", they actually taught her the healthier alternative of staying still and thinking things through, always being cautious, calm and clearheaded while still encouraging her to express herself as well as her aptitude towards physical and intellectual pursuits.

say what you will about lightspeed rescue being quote unquote bad but you gotta admit that power rangers lore whiplash has never reached the peak of lightspeed rescue’s first episode

“We, a shady black tie high tech agency run by the (?) government (?) need to protect the American coastal city of Mariner Bay from some powerful evil demons who want to destroy it because it’s built on their ancient evil palace. Also last time they were kicking around they were sealed up in an Egyptian tomb by, now stay with me here, ‘a powerful warlock.’ To do this we have selected 1) a firefighter with curtain bangs 2) our boss’s daughter 3) a rock climbing lesbian 4) a Yeehaw stunt pilot and 5) literally just some dude who works at Seaworld.”

Ranger Profile v.01

Red Ranger - Cole Cassidy

As I said in a previous post Cassidy is the main mechanic of the team on top of being it's leader, he is the co-owner of Deadlock mechanics, the other owner being Ashe. Him and Ashe are the main mechanics while Frankie run finance and Bez runs the networking and partnerships. They've also all known each other since high school, Cassidy and Ashe even dating at one point, only to break up when they left high school because they're lives were going in different directions. The mechanics shop, specifically a workshop they never use for work, is where they store and fix the ranger equipment.

Cassidy is also the last to get his powers and the most weary about them, along with their new jobs as protectors of this technology. Especially because he doesn't want Lucio and D.Va involved, since they are only teenagers and this is protecting the entire world from an armada of monsters. He's even more worried due to the fact that Hana is his daughter and is already prone to reckless behavior.

Cassidy is the (currently) single father of both Hana and Echo, he's also the adopted older brother of Fareeha and the older brother figure of Genji. He's adoptive parents are Ana, an ex-military captain who is now fully retired, and Gabe, an ex-cop, ex-military and current P.I that has been missing for a year before the story began, they are his leagal guardians, and when Cassidy was a kid they basically had a joint custody arrangement with him. There is also Jack who is also ex-military and is currently the P.E teacher at Hana and Lucio's school and though he was not legally Cassidy's guardian, he is basically a third parent.

Cassidy is also close to most of Hana's friends, there's Dae-hyun and Seung-hwa being apprentices at Deadlock, Yuna being a regular at the shop with her car named "Beast" because of her racing shenanigans, Lucio being one of Hana's best friends who often just stays at their house, and Brigette, a new addition due to her not really being from this time or earth, the reason being she's Angela's apprentice and younger sister.

Angela is probably the only other person to understand the severity of the situation at hand and how much of a problem Lucio and D.Va being rangers is. Which did help smooth over things with Cole as he was very upset, but there was no changing the situation. After their rocky start, Angela and Cassidy became quite close, Cassidy often being the first to be informed about situation when they arise. Which often leads to Cassidy handling "minor" situations by himself without the help of the rest of the team, without the team themselves knowing, mainly because he knows that the others have their own lives to live, especially Lucio and Hana, so he doesn't want to disturb that more then it already is with the major threats.

@themundanemudperson The idea behind my headcanon of Fran's animal spirit both being a black cat and monkey stems from the idea of luck.

We kinda see her having a few troubling issues, mainly originating from having to manage the restaurant alone and being pestered by the team which made me think a little. Perhaps Fran used to be clumsy as a child or had a tendency to deal with stressful situations outside of her control.

It wasn't her fault; this was cause of her animal spirits. In my mind, an animal spirit stems from the soul or even the inner will of a person and can represent certain aspects. Some examples are Jarrod's lion struggling with authority and the "lone king" being lost in his own path; Camille's chameleon represents her change and the birth of the Phoenix as she rises on her own away from Dai Shi.

Along with this, some animal spirits give off powers, so in a sense, Fran has probability manipulation with luck. Though without control it seemed to throw various issues in her way as she grew up, of course without realizing it she found a way to maintain her spirits(like thinking of how she was able to handle the restaurant on her own, the scales of luck working in her favor).

She was never unlucky but just didn't know how to use the powers well, there's good luck and bad luck with probability, a double edged sword if you think about it like Domino from the X-Men(who's a character immune to bad luck but the world around her erupts in chaos as she activates the powers). Fran has yet to control the good side of her powers to make herself truly lucky but it does reach out here and there…I’d also say that if placed in dangerous situation her reflexes and combat would spike up, all apart of the powers

Some other influences with the powers along with my ranger design of her was the concept behind the black cat superstition along with the Three Wise Monkeys. For her to unlock the good side of her powers, Fran becomes ignorant to the world around her in a similar way like the monkeys, See no Evil, Hear no Evil and Speak no evil, or in a sense she blocks out negativity and let's the good vibes in.

Idk I got in a lore mood, this is technically all plans too for my JFAU fic but I have yet to get back to that, but yeah that’s some story behind her animal spirit. I need to do her weapon since she has like five in her ranger form but that’ll come later, also she can clone herself so they can take care of restaurant work when going to fight cause I hate how she was put through all that stress in the show👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾
