Power Rangers: Rebel Force

[Theyra]

Power Rangers Rebel Force

The evil Velcon Empire, ruled by the evil Emperor Qyi, is a force that has conquered planet after planet with no end in sight. Now, after conquering the planet of Kial, the Velcon Empire has set its sights on Earth. Emperor Qyi sent a team to Earth to learn more about the planet before the proper invasion began after hearing the word of Earth's guardians, the Power Rangers.

But as the team settles in and learns more about Earth and the Power Rangers. That either already harboring treasonous thoughts or changed by Earth's people. This team has decided to defect from the Velcon Empire and join the Power Rangers in defending the planet. Using their knowledge of the empire to their advantage in the fight against the Velcon Empire.

Only the Power Rangers would mysteriously disappear, and in their place, the defectors would take their place as the new Power Rangers and defend the planet from their former allies while trying to discover what happened to the last Power Rangers. A task they must bear if they wish to defeat the Velcon Empire and stop their advance, and earn their place as defenders of Earth, their new home.

Overview

Hello and welcome to the rp. So that is the idea for the rp, playing as alien defectors that have taken up the mantle of being the Power Rangers after they go missing. Now I know this idea differs from other Power Rangers rps on this site that I have seen since you always play as humans from Earth. But, I was curious if people would be interested in a Power Rangers rp like this and so this is more of a gauge to see if the idea works.

If there is enough interest, then I will continue working on the idea and get an OOC up with more details. However, I will say that I am looking for a Co-Gm to help with things if any are interested, and I will answer any questions people have if they have any.

What I have so far is the colors for the rangers and how they look. Green, Red, Pink, Black, and Blue. Which are not gender exclusive and can be played by anyone. But I will reserve the Green Ranger for myself, and anyone can be the leader of the team if one desires. Now how the ranger look, Power Rangers, ignore the bottom three rangers and how the Zords look like is this, Zords and the Megazord.

As for the Velcon Empire, I will be lenient and will allow people to make up stuff for it as long as it does not contradict what I have for it. Which I admit is not much right now. Plus, allowing people to have the freedom to pick what their character looks like alien species wise along with a human appearance. As long as the alien appearance is humanoid in appearance.

That is it right now, and again, if anyone has any questions or interested in being a Co-Gm, then say something.

[Duthguy]

You had my interest at power rangers and in case you didn't know the artis who made the zords also posted a Megazord and a different, possibly older,version of the zords that shows them a bit better

[Crimson Flame]

I tend to join Power Ranger RPs just to play a male Pink Ranger and say fuck you to gender norms.

I have no idea how I’m going to incorporate that into an alien character who doesn’t have human gender norms, but I’m thinking about trying to figure that out.

[Dragonfly 9]

Interested! Intending on making a tiger humanoid alien, who initially is all aggressive and arrogant, but then, after being on Earth and interacting with humans, learns that acting like "the ultimate warrior" will, surprise surprise, not ultimately help him with his own self doubt/insecurities and overall lack of an identity. Nowadays, despite his strong sense of justice and humor, he's still struggling with an identity crisis, but covers it up with being boisterous, encouraging of others(even tho he doesn't know how to be sometimes), and "cool".

Either gonna go Black or Blue for him(tho the leader in Red will likely have to be more levelheaded than him, in order to balance things out xD).

@Duthguy

Thanks, I did not see that when I was looking for custom zords that fit the colors of the rangers.

@Crimson Flame

Well, the gender norms could be similar, or maybe your character's people had a preference for pink in their culture or were associated with good things, but after they were conquered by the Velcon Empire, this was forcefully changed, and pink lost its original value. So when your char defects to Earth and becomes a Power Ranger. Becoming the pink ranger was a symbol of defiance against the empire and wearing the color that was once considered good in your char's culture before the empire arrived.

@Dragonfly 9

I like it, so feel free to go with that.

So I will start working on the OOC once we get at least one more person interested.

Side note, since I have no experience with using AI to make stuff, if anyone wants to do that with the zords to make them more unique then feel free to do so.

@Theyra Seems interesting. If you need some Custom Ranger Costumes made, i do Microheroes myself and am running a Power Rangers TTRPG game using the Essence 20 system.



This is my current party. So, if you need a more customized suits, i'd be more than happy to make something for you.

@mattmanganon

Thanks for your interest, and I will accept your offer of making custom suits for the group. Since I have discovered that the suits that I found are very similar to another. Any ideas for a character so far?

So now I will start working in the OOC and will try to get it out sometime this week.

[mattmanganon]

@Theyra A couple of idea's.

1) An older warrior, something along the lines of Loyax or Villamax from Lost Galaxy. The type who believes in honour among villains and has been jilted for the last time by backstabbing from within the Empire.
2) A Triforian who, 2 of his 3 selves got corrupted which made him join the evil side when he was re-merged. Now the one good part has escaped, with the other 2 parts remaining behind as the typical henchmen for the bad guy.
3) An angel from the realm of good magic, sent down to help these redeemable souls in their quest. (Seeing how the goddess of good magic is Rita Repulsa herself.)
4) A mentor type character who doesn't morph, but is here to provide the technical support and assistance from the background.

@mattmanganon

Any of these ideas can work though I like the 1 and 4 character ideas.

[Cyrania]

I would be interested.

Could I be a blue skinned, red eyed psychic girl from an ice planet people who was taught to steel her heart to serve her people and the empire, but couldn't do so when she finds herself on Earth?

[Theyra]

@Cyrania

Sure, though about the psychic power. Could you describe that? I was toying with the idea of letting people have abilities based on their species but, can I have some more detail with what you have in mind?

Mostly just standard telepathy and telekinesis. Could go as powerful or as weak as you wanted it to be. Though her powers would likely go more out of control the more overwhelmed by emotion she was, hence why her people would be focused on control and being as emotionless as possible.

[mattmanganon]

To be fair, Power Rangers does have a long history of Civilian super-powers.

Andros in In Space had telekinesis.
In Time Force, Katie was super strong and Trip was a Psychic
The Dino Thunder Rangers all got super-powers from the Dino-Gems (Supersonic Shriek, Diamond Skin, Super Speed, Invisibility, etc.)
The SPD Rangers were all mutants with weird powers like Jack being Intangible, Z being able to multiply herself and Bridge could sense aura's.
The Mystic Force Rangers were all wizards and could do magic n shit.
In the Reimagining movie, the armour was just armour and they were all super-strong regardless.

So, yeah, Civilian Super Powers were pretty common. Especially during the Disney Era. Apparently, Disney wanted to push the civilian powers thing hard to try and cut down on the amount of Sentai footage and to replace potentially dangerous fight choreography with cheap CGI. Plus, Cheap CGI is harder for kids to hurt themselves trying to recreate, making the show more lawsuite friendly.

Okay, that sounds okay in that case. Just nothing too strong.

@mattmanganon

That is a point, and I do remember rangers having powers like in SPD. So yeah, I think I will be allowing people to have a power if they desire for their char.

@Theyra

I definitely desire for my character. I just don’t know what.

@Crimson Flame

You could look at Superpower Wiki since it has a massive list of powers. And you have time, granted I am almost done with the OOC, and it will probably be up either tomorrow or Thursday.
