[edit] Character history
[edit] In Power Rangers: Turbo
Little is revealed about the Phantom Ranger throughout the series. Indeed, the name 'Phantom Ranger' is given to him by the Turbo Power Rangers because of his ability to become invisible, like a phantom, and also his armour, which loosely resembles the armour worn by the other Rangers. It is not made clear from where his power originates (for example, it is unknown whether his armor is his actual body), though his armor is powered by the ruby in his chestplate. The Phantom Ranger is from the planet Eltar, which is also the home planet of Zordon. His Zord is Artillatron, a massive vehicle that appears to be a combination of a tank and an 18-wheeler. His weapon is the Phantom Laser, a black bat-shaped laser weapon which fires black energy beams.
Phantom Ranger provided the other Power Rangers with advanced zords to battle evil. The first instance of this was his gift of the Rescue Zords to the Rangers, after the Turbozords were captured by General Havoc.
The Phantom Ranger was also the love interest of Cassie Chan, although since she knew little to nothing about him, it is most often considered little more than a crush. Despite this, the Phantom Ranger displayed his own affection for Cassie on certain occasions as well. He later left Earth believing it to be safe with the Power Rangers as its protectors.
[edit] In Power Rangers in Space
He was later searching for Zordon after he was captured. After the Space Rangers found him, he gave Andros, the Red Space Ranger, a special CD which would unlock the control over the Delta Megazord in Power Rangers in Space.
In the finale of Power Rangers: In Space, Countdown to Destruction, the Phantom Ranger fought alongside the Blue Senturion in defence of the planet Eltar.
To this day, the Phantom Ranger stands as the only ranger whose true name, race, species and identity are a mystery.
In both series, the Phantom Ranger was voiced by Alex Dodd.
