List of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers characters

The fictional villains of the Power Rangers universe that appeared in the television series Mighty Morphin Power Rangers and the film Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie were aliens serving or allied to Rita Repulsa and/or, later, Lord Zedd, including the warrior Goldar.

Information about the other villains can be found below.

Note: For the purposes of this article, the mini-series Mighty Morphin Alien Rangers is considered to be a part of the third series of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.

Note also: Villains from the movie, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie, while they are included on this page, are not considered part of normal Power Rangers continuity.

Rita Repulsa

Main article: Rita Repulsa

Rita Repulsa was the primary antagonist for the first season, and later returned during the second to marry Lord Zedd. She is the Daughter of The first evil Monarch of the MG-51 planet Mastervile. She has a brother named Rito and, via Zedd, a son named Thrax.

It was also mentioned in "Power Rangers: Turbo" that Divatox was a friend of Rita, possibly a relative, where she asked Rita for advice on how to defeat the Power Rangers on the phone. Rita mentioned that if she knew how to defeat the Power Rangers, she wouldn't be trapped with Zedd, and faced the phone towards him, who was snoring in his sleep.

Rita Repulsa was played by Machiko Soga and voiced by Barbara Goodson.
She was played by Carla Perez in U.S. footage.
She was played by Sydney native Julia Cortez in MMPR: The Movie.

Goldar

Main article: Goldar

Goldar was the second henchman for both Rita Repulsa and Lord Zedd. In season one, he sometimes fought alongside Scorpina. In season three and later on, he often partnered with Rito Revolto.

He was voiced by Kerrigan Mahan.
He was played by Kerry Casey in MMPR: The Movie.

Squatt and Baboo

Squatt was a servant of Lord Zedd and Rita Repulsa, the dimwitted sidekick of Baboo. Squatt was a short, blue-skinned hobgoblin-like creature with a large horn. He wore metal armor, and was said to be a mix between a blueberry and a warthog.

Squatt is rather excitable, and may act like an eagar child when Rita has a plan, or when the Rangers are having trouble in a battle. Squatt was easily frightened by his bosses' bad tempers. Squatt was a coward and, rather than fight, he along with Baboo, would accompany Goldar, Scorpina and monsters as they attacked the Earth and cheer them on. However, he often went to Earth when there was no fight going on because his main duties were acting as a spy and saboteur, as shown in episodes like "Switching Places", "Foul Play in the Sky", "Calamity Kimberly" and "Rita's Seed of Evil".

Baboo is the more intelligent of a dimwitted duo consisting of him and Squatt. He is tall, slim, black, and vampire, and resembles a cross between a monkey and a vampire bat with crippled wings. Like Finster, he mainly works behind the lines. Though spineless and scatterbrained, he is highly creative. He serves as Rita's alchemist and potion maker, creating substances and devices for her to use. Notable creations include a time device, a punk potion, the monster Shellshock, and the Nasty Knight's sword. Baboo is rarely confident in his mistress' plans, but would never say this to her face.

Like Squatt he is somewhat cowardly often going to Earth to scheme or cheer on Goldar and/or Scorpina in battle, rather than take part in a fight himself.

Squatt and Baboo disappeared during the Power Rangers: Zeo series, when fleeing from the Machine Empire with his masters. Squatt was seen in Countdown to Destruction and was reduced to sand by Zordon's wave. Baboo, on the other hand, wasn't seen in Countdown to Destruction, so there is a small chance he may have survived Zordon's Wave.

Squatt was voiced by Michael Sorich. Baboo was voiced by Dave Mallow, credited as Colin Philips.

Finster

Finster is a shy henchman of Rita Repulsa and Lord Zedd, though mostly the former. He resembled an anthropomorphic white Scottish Terrier (in Zyuranger he is stated to be a leprechaun). During the first season of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, he was primarily responsible for creating a new monster to battle the Rangers in each episode, as well as producing a regular supply of Putty Patrollers, although this function fell to Lord Zedd after his appearance. Finster did this by sculpting the monsters out of clay and 'cooking' them in a special machine called the Monstermatic in his workshop. Not only is he skilled at supplying monsters and henchmen for his leaders, he is also shown to be a skilled alchemist and potion maker (similar to Baboo) and inventor, supplying many kinds of potions and gadgets. At the near-end of the episode "Crystal of Nightmares", it's implied by Goldar that Finster thought using the Crystal was a good idea, while Goldar denies it (calling him an "overgrown rat" in the process). He was the one responsible for making the suggestion that Alpha 5 be used in "delivering the message of evil" as Rita Repulsa had called it, in "The Wedding".

During the Zeo season, he aided Zedd and Rita in their fight against the Machine Empire with several machines that he built. In the very last episode of Zeo, Finster makes a new wand for Rita,which is absurdely more powerful than the previous as it creates a monster that is strong even for the Zeo Ultrazord. Finster was (presumed) reduced to sand by Zordon's energy wave in Power Rangers in Space.

Finster was the original "monster maker" of Power Rangers. This role is often filled by other characters of Finster's type, such as Jinxer of Lightspeed Rescue and Mora/Morgana of S.P.D.

Finster was voiced by Robert Axelrod.

Scorpina

Scorpina is a human-scorpion hybrid and is one of Rita Repulsa's most ruthless and dangerous minions aside from Goldar. Though the Scorpina/Goldar relationship in MMPR is significantly less developed than the Grifforzer/Lami relationship of its Japanese counterpart, Goldar and Scorpina have shown affection toward each other, albeit in a much less sexual degree, even, to a small degree, where Goldar is shown to be protective of her. She has a human form (a beautiful Asian woman with long raven hair wearing golden scorpion armor) but has a hideous scorpion monster form when Rita makes her gigantic.

Very little is actually known about Scorpina. Her first appearance was in the Green with Evil story arc. She is an old friend of Rita Repulsa, and according to Baboo, did horrible things. Much like Goldar, she would often square off against Jason when sent to battle the Rangers, and overwhelmed them with ease. She fights with a crescent-shaped sword that can be thrown like a boomerang. When in giant form, she often fights alongside Goldar. Scorpina once used her pet silkworm to fight the Power Rangers. Another time, she posed as a human girl named Sabrina to try to ensnare Adam Park ("Goldar's Vice Versa"). It is likely that Scorpina was reduced to sand (or maybe even turned to good since she has a human form) like the rest of Rita's henchmen, but this has not yet been confirmed.

According to IMDB, Scorpina was to make an appearance in an unproduced three-parter, Zordon, I Shrunk The Rangers (the episode would be set after The Wedding) Scorpina was supposed to return to the show as a main character in that episode, but Haim Saban was unable to keep the U.S. actress for more than one episode and was unable to find a replacement.

Scorpina was the first female villain warrior of the series, a role later filled by Archerina, Divatox, Astronema, Trakeena, Vypra, Nadira, Toxica, Marah and Kapri, Elsa, Morgana, Necrolai, Miratrix, Camille & Tenaya 7. Also, Scorpina is the first major villain to transform into an advanced form upon growing in the Power Rangers series.

Scorpina was played by Ami Kawai and voiced by Wendee Lee while the American actress remains unknown to this day.

Lokar

Appearing as a floating, Satanic, ethereal, blue head, the powerful Lokar changed Mutitus to his more powerful form and assisted in sending the Rangers to the Island of Illusions. After destroying Mutitus, the Rangers attacked Lokar with the Ultrazord, but he managed to escape. Lokar is seen teleporting away just after the blast hits and Jason says "we'll get him next time". Lokar is later summoned again when Goldar goes into battle with his extremely powerful War Zord, Cyclopsis ("Doomsday, Parts 1 & 2"). Lokar, heavily scarred from the Ultrazord attack, recreates the War Zord when it falls to the Power Rangers' attack and then aids Cyclopsis in its next two battles against rangers, but disappears forever when Cyclopsis is destroyed by the Ultrazord. Though he is not seen destroyed, Lokar does not make another appearance in the series after he and Cyclopsis are on the receiving end of a blast from Ultrazord (his Japanese Zyuranger counterpart, Great Satan was killed during that battle) and he is not seen in Countdown to Destruction.

Lokar was played by Masahiko Urano and voiced by Robert Axelrod

Seasons Two and Three

Lord Zedd

Main article: Lord Zedd

Lord Zedd was the primary antagonist for the second and third seasons.

He was voiced by Robert Axelrod.
He was portrayed by Ed Neil.
He was portrayed by Mark Ginther in MMPR: The Movie.

Rito Revolto

Main article: Rito Revolto

Rito Revolto was Rita Repulsa's brother and the secondary henchman for her and Lord Zedd in the third season, often partnered with Goldar. Though he was not seen in "Countdown to Destruction", he was possibly reduced to sand by Zordon's Wave or he was purified since Rita Repulsa and Lord Zedd were purified as well.

He was voiced by Bob Papenbrook.

Master Vile

Master Vile, was the father of Rita Repulsa and Rito Revolto. He was a tall demon-like being with large ear-like appendages and wore a dark cloak that had snakes seen emerging from it and wielded a magic wand. His home planet is called Gamma Vile, which was in the M51 galaxy. His personality is that of a crotchety old man. He's a very cunning villain overall, but is very comical. He also appears to be something of a coward.

Master Vile arrived on the moon in search of the legendary Zeo Crystal during the third season of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. He very nearly succeeded with the aid of an energy-draining monster he created and called the Blue Globber. After capturing Ninjor, the Crystal and the Rangers' Zords, Vile decided to throw an "End of the World Party" in the Angel Grove Youth Center before he would use the Zeo crystal to destroy the earth. However, Vile throwing his party gave the rangers the time and opportunity to locate and retrieve their Zords. Vile grew to giant size after Ninjor regained his energy and joined the Rangers in their battle against the Globber. Although his monster was destroyed, Vile survived the finishing attacks of both the Shogun and Ninja Megafalconzord, and still managed to retreat despite not appearing to be that badly hurt. On his retreat to the moon, he considered the failure nothing more than a minor setback and decided to stay.

Vile later summoned his old ally Dischordia (a monster that uses dance to control her victims) to battle the Rangers, and she nearly succeeded in taking control of the Rangers' minds. Vile was foiled once again, as Dischordia met her end courtesy of Ninjor and the Shogun Ultrazord.

Vile then summoned the Orb of Doom to the Earth, which he used to revert the Rangers to powerless children. He prevented Lord Zedd, Rita, Goldar, and Rito from destroying Angel Grove, revealing that he had more plans for the Earth. He sent a selection of monsters to invade the planet, led by his field general, Professor Longnose. When the invasion was thwarted by the Aquitian Rangers, Vile threw a tantrum and fled back to his home galaxy, where he claimed "the bad guy always wins".

After being overthrown by the Machine Empire, Rita called her father and begged him to let them stay with him. Vile reluctantly agreed knowing that his daughter would be bringing "that husband of hers".

Master Vile appeared in the Power Rangers Zeo comic book, in which the forces of the Machine Empire attacked his planet looking for Lord Zedd (who was in possession of Power Coin energies the Machine Empire was seeking). In the end, Master Vile handed the energies over to the Machine Empire despite the Rangers' attempts to stop the Machine Empire from getting them. The Power Coin energies subplot went unresolved.

Master Vile was last seen on the Cimmerian Planet, attending Dark Specter's conference. He was most likely purified (like his daughter) or destroyed by Zordon's Wave during the battles that succeeded the conference.

In the Power Rangers: Operation Overdrive episode "Once a Ranger", it is revealed that he has a grandson named Thrax.

Note: Vile was the first villain to receive the "semi-independent villain" position - a role which would later be filled by Louie Kaboom, Prince Gasket, General Havoc, Captain Mutiny, Mandilok, and some of the monsters in S.P.D.

• The Monsters that attended Master Vile's End of the World Party at the Youth Center are Fighting Flea, Slippery Shark, Rhinoblaster, Oysterizer, Robogoat, Invenusable Flytrap, Doomstone, Pachinko Head, Vampirus, Artistmole, Centiback, Hate Master, Miss Chief, Incisorator, See Monster, Garbage Mouth, Brick Bully's second form, and Dischordia.

• Monsters at Master Vile's conference are Crabby Cabbie, See Monster, Brick Bully's second form, Miss Chief, Lanterra, Arachnofiend, a clown dog monster, a large blue stitched monster, a furry brown tiki masked monster, and a white swirly monster.

Hydro Hog

Hydro Hog, who appeared in Mighty Morphin Alien Rangers, is the nemesis of the Aquitian Rangers. He was known as the Emperor of the Dark Waters on Aquitar for his evil ways. He was known for having destroyed many planets. His main power is by consuming all the water available before the Aquitian Rangers can get to it, leaving them dehydrated.

The Hydro Hog was too powerful for the Aquitian Rangers to destroy, and he was the only villain capable of withstanding the Shogun Megazord's Fire Saber, actually completely blocking the slash before it hit him. However, he was eventually defeated by the Shogun Megafalconzord. He was the first archvillain to be destroyed in battle, later followed by King Mondo. Hydro Hog is also the first, and only, monster and/or archvillain to be destroyed by the Shogun Megafalconzord.

Hydro Hog is voiced by Brad Orchard (uncredited).

Movie

Ivan Ooze

Ivan Ooze is a fictional character in the Power Rangers universe, the primary villain in the film Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie (1995). He was played by Paul Freeman and is only one of two Power Rangers villains with no place in the actual television show's continuity (the other villain being Mordant). Though Ivan is depicted as pure evil, he has a comical and charming side to him shown throughout the movie, typical of other villains in the series. He is also hinted to be a fan of The Brady Bunch - he wanted to either destroy or be a part of the show's reunion. He has his own troops of soldiers including Ooze-Men and winged creatures called Tengoo (based on the Japanese myth of the Tengu) that are easily destroyed by the Rangers.

Ivan Ooze was a tyrant 6000 years ago, until he was imprisoned in an egg-shaped Hyperlock Chamber by Zordon and a small group of young warriors, who presumably were the precursors to the modern Power Rangers. His hyperlock chamber unearthed by an Angel Grove construction crew, Ivan was released by Lord Zedd after 6,000 years of imprisonment. Apparently, he was most angered by the boredom of his lengthly imprisonment, being forced to miss several disasters throughout Earth's history such as the Black Death and the Spanish Inquisition (as well as the 1981 reunion of the Brady Bunch). Ivan proceeded to demolish the Command Center and fatally injure Zordon, leaving the Rangers powerless to morph, fight or call their Zords.

He traveled to the moon, and once there easily deposed both Lord Zedd and Rita Repulsa, trapping them within a snowglobe. Their henchmen Goldar and Mordant swore allegiance to Ivan rather than join Rita and Zedd in captivity. Ivan then began brainwashing the parents of Angel Grove into digging up and repairing his Ecto-Morphicons, large insect-like machines similar to the Rangers' Zords, which he turned loose to rampage in Angel Grove. After this, he told the parents to go and "leap to their doom", but the parents' children, with some help from Bulk and Skull, stopped them.

After the Rangers gained the Great Power, they returned to Angel Grove and battled Ivan's machines with their new Ninja Zords. Using these Zords, they were able to destroy one of the Morphicons, Scorpitron. An enraged Ivan combined with the other Morphicon, Hornitor, and took on the Rangers himself. The battle progressed into outer space, and though Ivan consistently had the upper hand, he was destroyed when the Ninja Megafalconzord kneed him in the groin, which sent him flying into the path of Orion's Comet, which happened to be passing.

Mordant

Mordant was a pig-like henchman in Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie. Together with Goldar, he defected from Lord Zedd to join Ivan Ooze, when Ivan imprisoned Lord Zedd and Rita Repulsa in a snowglobe. In an original draft of the script, he was revealed to be Goldar's second cousin, three times removed, on his mother's side, visiting for the summer, but this was written out for the final draft, and many audience members were confused as to Mordant's origins (information from Writer's Guide to the PR Universe). Mordant never appeared in the series since the movie wasn't part of the continuity, although he would go on to appear in Marvel Comics' adaptation of the movie and series. Mordant is in fact referred to being Goldar's cousin visiting for the summer in a coloring book based on the movie, but whether or not this is canon is debatable. It is because of his relationship with Goldar that he is naturally submissive whenever Goldar momentarily declares himself the new leader (until Zed and Repulsa return).

Mordant is played by Jean Paul Bell and voiced by Martin G. Metcalf.

Since the movie takes place in a parallel universe, the events of Countdown to Destruction never happened (in this universe, shattering Zordon's tube rapidly ages Zordon instead of releasing a wave of energy). Thus, Mordant (as well as the movie versions of Rita, Zedd and Goldar) are still evil and active, so in the unlikely event of a sequel the story could continue.

Oozemen

Ivan Ooze's foot soldiers, made from his own ooze. Their name is not mentioned in the movie proper, but they are instead referred to as Ivan's "kids" just second before he forms them.
