Master Org is a name that applies to two beings in the story of Power Rangers: Wild Force. One of them is the original Master Org, who led the battle against the Animarium millennia ago and destroyed Animus. However, that Master Org was then destroyed by Merrick Baliton, the guardian of Princess Shayla.
Years later, the scientist Dr. Viktor Adler and his companions Richard and Elizabeth Evans discovered the seeds that remained of Master Org while on an expedition to prove the existence of the Animarium. Driven by his jealousy (because Richard beat Viktor to asking Elizebeth in her hand of marriage, had baby Cole and Richard stole the spotlight from him during the press conference in which they were announcing they would find the animarium), Dr. Adler took the seeds secretly, and out of personal revenge, swallowed them and gained the powers of an Org, killing his companions, but never finding Cole.
So it was that Dr. Viktor Adler became the second Master Org. He was aided by the Duke Orgs Jindrax and Toxica, who later found out his secret. He temporarily turned them into slaves, but they escaped. After repeated defeats at the hands of the Wild Force Power Rangers, Master Org fought them himself. In the process, he lost his Org powers, and was then killed by General Org Mandilok.
However, from Dr. Adler's dead husk was born the true Master Org, with REAL Org horn on his forehead. He sent Duke Org Onikage to arrange for his return. When he came, he destroyed Mandilok and kidnapped Shayla. He then invoked a ceremony to create an Org Heart, summoning Retinax, Nayzor, and Mandilok to guard him. He swallowed the Heart, and his human body crumbled.
Unfortunately, Master Org used the Org Heart to create a full-Org body, which resembled a composite of the three General Orgs. He attacked the Animarium, destroyed Animus (and with that, Kite was no more) and was seemingly destroyed by the Kongazord, but the Org Heart quickly restored him. He then proceeded to destroy the Kongazord, as well as every last wild zord and brought the Animarium down to Earth. He attacked Turtle Cove, but was destroyed when the Wild Zords were all revived and countless others combined powers with them. Master Org was hit with an Ultra Roar, and disappeared into nothingness. The Org Heart itself was then destroyed by the six Wild Force Rangers, who used the Jungle Sword to destroy it. With the destruction of Master Org, Dr. Viktor Adler could finally rest in peace.
Master Org is played by Ilia Volokh.
NOTE #1: The costume for Master Org is remodeled from the costume for Gorma Emperor XVI from Gosei Sentai Dairanger.
[edit] Org Generals
[edit] Retinax
Retinax is an Org General and was the bodyguard of Master Org, and wandered the Earth for millennia after his master's destruction, believing he had failed. He was later found by Toxica and Jindrax, who told him Master Org had returned. Seeking to redeem himself, Retinax attempted to destroy the Rangers. However, he was defeated, and then destroyed by Master Org, whom he did not recognize because he was the human Viktor Adler.
Retinax, themed after an eye, was brought back with the other face-themed General Orgs Nayzor and Mandilok to defend the pillars used in the Org Heart ceremony. He was defeated, but returned fused together with the other Generals as Master Org's new body.
In battle, Retinax uses an axe with an eye embedded in it, this axe is also used in the formation of the Nexus Blade. This General Org can also shoot electricity from his main eye and can extend his arms to wrap around enemies.
Retinax is voiced by Michael Sorich.
[edit] Nayzor
Nayzor was one of three General Orgs modeled after parts of the face, and is modeled after a nose(His name is even a pun of nasal) and ear-shaped projections from his back shoulders. He is revived by Master Org to destroy the Rangers, and plans to do so by unleashing Zen-Aku. When Zen-Aku begins to remember who he is, Nayzor modifies his memory so he won't remember.
Nayzor later obtains the animal crystals stolen by Zen-Aku and uses them to create Quadra Org. However, the Org is beaten by the Lunar Wild Force Ranger Merrick Baliton, who also takes out Nayzor. Nayzor's crown is then used by Toxica to become the General Org Necronomica. Master Org later revives Nayzor as Super Nayzor, who pounds on the Rangers until his defeat at the hands of the Isis Megazord.
Nayzor is revived in his normal form during the ceremony of the Org Heart, and is ordered to guard one of the pillars involved in the ceremony. He is defeated, but appears later as a part of Master Org's new Org form.
In his normal form, Nayzor uses a paper fan in battle, this fan can be used to deflect projectiles back at enemies and was also used in the formation of the Nexus Blade. He could also fire electricity from the purple colored gem on his chest. In his Super Form, Nayzor used a staff with a pair of claws on them, these were identical to the claws on his knuckles (similar to Wolverine's retractable claws from X-Men.) and feet. In Super Form, Nayzor could also manipulate electricity with his hands and from his eyes and shown in the 'Next Time on Power Rangers Wild Force' sequence, it is shown that Nayzor can separate his molecules before he is attacked and can reform, although this was not seen in any actual episode.
Nayzor is voiced by Ken Merckx.
[edit] Mandilok
Mandilok was one of three General Orgs based on parts of the face. Mandilok was themed on the mouth, having dozens of them all over his body. Mandilok had both male and female voices, and an appetite that could not be satisfied. He was revived by Jindrax and Toxica to destroy Viktor Adler, and did so, but then treated the Duke Orgs like dirt. He was later destroyed by a returning Master Org, but revived to guard the Nexus during the Org Heart ceremony. He was destroyed again, but reappeared as part of Master Org's new body.
Mandilok used a giant fork and knife as weapons. These were used in the formation of the Nexus Blade. Mandilok could also breathe fire from the mouth with the male voice on his stomach and could also manipulate electricity with his hands.
Mandilok's upper, female face is voiced by Barbara Goodson. The lower, male face is voiced by Ezra Weisz.
[edit] Duke Orgs
[edit] Jindrax
Jindrax is a Duke Org, the Master of Blades and the partner of Toxica, and they serve as the primary henchman of Master Org.
Jindrax is known for his skill with knives (occasionally swords), and uses them constantly in battle. In a few episodes, he causes monsters to grow using Toxica' staff and reciting the spell "Evil spirits of toil and strife, give this fallen Org new life".
He was later transformed and brainwashed, along with Toxica, into Super Jindrax by Master Org after they discovered that he was a human. He was later released, and set out with Toxica to free the general Mandilok. However, the two were mistreated under Mandilok, and Toxica was actually destroyed in battle with the Rangers.
He has a brother named Juggelo, who was imprisoned along with the other Orgs 3000 years ago. Together, the two form "Team Carnival". In one episode, Jindrax eats Toxica's magic beans to grow large and fight alongside Juggelo. After Juggelo is destroyed, the effect of the beans wears off and Jindrax shrinks to his normal size. This makes him the only Org ever to grow large and return to normal (indeed, Toxica warned him that this was normally not possible). After Juggelo's death, Toxica joins Team Carnival in his stead.
Jindrax later brought Toxica back from the netherworld she had been sent to by charging her severed horn with energy from the Rangers' weapons. The two aided the Rangers in the final battle with Master Org, and then left to travel the world.
Jindrax was voiced by Richard Cansino for four episodes, and later his US suit actor Danny Wayne Stallcup (credited in this series as Danny Wayne), who played Jindrax in his human-guise prior to the series beginning.
[edit] Toxica
Toxica is Jindrax's partner, a Duke Org and the Mistress of Magic.
She can resurrect fallen Orgs and cause them to grow by reciting the spell "Evil spirits of toil and strife, give this fallen Org new life" and firing some magic beans from her staff, which grow into vines that entangle the fallen Org.
She and Jindrax hid themselves for centuries after Master Org's defeat, and were the first to rejoin him in the Nexus when he re-emerged. Toxica grew suspicious of Master Org, when she saw him adjust his horn, something no real Org should be able to do.
After General Nayzor was destroyed, Toxica temporarily used his crown to become the General Org Necronomica. She and Jindrax later received newer forms from Master Org when they exposed him, and were brainwashed, becoming the submissive slaves Super Jindrax and Super Toxica. However, they were later freed, and unleashed the General Org Mandilok to aid them against Master Org.
Duke Org Onikage tricked her into cutting off her horn, telling her that it would grow back (a lie). After this, she was near-death and was soon inadvertently killed by the Power Rangers using the Jungle Blaster when Mandilok grabbed her and used her as a human shield.
Jindrax then re-energized Toxica's severed horn by tricking the Rangers into firing the Jungle Blaster at it (backstabbing the Locomotive Org in the process), and used it to resurrect her from the Netherworld she was trapped in. She aided the Rangers by rescuing Princess Shayla, and then left with Jindrax to travel the world.
Toxica was played by Sin Wong, who also voiced Necronomica.
[edit] Deleted Scene
This would have been the final scene in "The End Of The Power Rangers". Jindrax and Toxica are visiting a zoo. While Toxica is getting drinks, Jindrax sees some kids feeding an elephant some peanuts. He wants to feed the elephant, so he takes some seeds from Toxica's staff, resulting in a giant elephant.
[edit] Zen-Aku
[edit] Artilla
Artilla is one of the Duke Orgs that were freed by Mandilok. Artilla is a tank-themed Duke Org. He and Helicos attacked Turtle Cove and were destroyed by the Isis Megazord.
Artilla is voiced by Michael Sorich.
[edit] Helicos
Helicos is one of the Duke Orgs that were freed by Mandilok. Helicos is a helicopter-themed Duke Org that can fly. He and Artilla attacked Turtle Cove and were destroyed by the Isis Megazord.
Helicos is voiced by Dave Mallow.
[edit] Juggelo
Juggelo is a Duke Org and Jindrax's brother. They attacked Taylor, Max and Kite at a carnival, even to when Jindrax ate the growth seeds to join him. Juggelo was destroyed by the Wild Force Megazord and Jindrax shrunk back to normal.
Juggelo is voiced by Patrick Thomas.
[edit] Onikage
Onikage is a ninja-based Duke Org who appeared seemingly out of nowhere to aid Mandilok. However, he was actually working for Master Org, preparing things for his return. He succeeded in capturing Princess Shayla, getting rid of Toxica, and setting up Mandilok to be destroyed. Onikage then used his ninja powers to create evil clones of the Rangers, whom the Rangers could not damage without hurting themselves. Jindrax upset his plans by reflecting one of his blasts back at him, creating a clone that the Rangers destroyed. Onikage returned as a giant, and fought the Rangers in another dimension where the spirits of defeated Orgs reside. However, with the help of the Pegasus Megazord, he was defeated for good.
Onikage is voiced by Dan Woren.
NOTE: Onikage is translated to Shadow Devil or Shadow Ogre in Japanese.
[edit] Mut-Orgs
In the year 3000, only three Orgs remained of the once great army that battled Animaria. Imprisoned in statues, they were stumbled upon by Ransik. When he learned that his cause, taking over the world, was the same as their own, he released them. They copied his DNA, combining the invulnerability of Mutants with their ancient Org powers. In exchange, they gave Ransik the power to pull weapons from his body. After Ransik's incarceration, the Mut-Orgs (who spoke their own language, which was actually English played in reverse) escaped into the past to seek out Master Org. After thoroughly trouncing the Wild Force Power Rangers several times, they find him. However, the Mut-Orgs are then met in battle by the combined Time Force/Wild Force team, as well as by Ransik. When they attempt to summon an energy blast, Ransik leaps in, taking the blast at point blank and causing it to wash back over the Mut-Orgs. As a result, their Mutant halves are destroyed, and their Org halves soon follow.
The Mut-Org's names are Takach, Kired, and Rofang. They were named for fans Jason Takach, Derik Smith, and Joe Rovang.
Takach and Kired are voiced by David Lodge and Rofang is voiced by Kim Strauss.
NOTE #1: The three Mut-Orgs are made up of recycled, repainted, and horn-added costume parts of various other monsters:
- Rofang: Head and right arm of Body Switcher, body of Darkliptor, sword of Cyborg Ecliptor, left shoulder armor of Strikning, boots of Prince Gasket.
- Takach: Head and boots of Strikning, body of Gatekeeper, left arm of unused Ohranger monster Bara Police, right arm of unused GoGoV monster Jeeruda, weapons of Tire Org.
- Kired: Body and head of Deviot's Keonta-Spell form, right hand of Beetleborgs Metallix' Repgillian, wings of unused GoGoV monster Zairen (or Mermatron for fans of the PRLR video game whom briefly appears in PRLR's "Sorcerer of the Sands" in advanced form), and the boots of Radster.
NOTE #2: The Mut-Org costumes were suppose to be used from the Gaoranger Movie, but a majority of the costumes from Gaoranger were caught in a warehouse fire.
[edit] Machine Empire Remnants
Years after Countdown to Destruction, in the episode Forever Red, the last generals of the Machine Empire gathered on the moon. Determined to obtain revenge for the destruction of their beloved monarch King Mondo, they set out to resurrect Serpentera. Led by Generals Venjix, Tezzla, Gerrok, Steelon, and Automon, the Empire unearthed the giant Zord and placed a neo-plutonium core inside to power it. However, just as they were about to board Serpentera, a team of 10 Red Rangers arrived on the moon. The Generals battled the Rangers, and Tezzla, Gerrok, Steelon, and Automon were destroyed. Venjix escaped to Serpentera, which he flew towards Earth. However, the Red Wild Force Ranger used his Wild Force Rider to reflect Serpentera's blast back into it. The Zord was destroyed, along with Venjix and the Machine Empire.
The five actors who voiced the remnants of the Machine Empire were Archie Kao (General Venjix), Catherine Sutherland (Tezzla), Walter Jones (Gerrok), Scott Page-Pagter (Steelon), and David Walsh (Automon).
NOTE #1: The Machine Empire Remnants are really recycled Big Bad Beetleborgs/Beetleborgs Metallix costumes. General Venjix' is Shadowborg, Tezzla's is Lady Borg, Gerokk's is Green Hunter Borg, Steelon's is Dragon Borg (minus the antennae on the head), and Automon's happens to have the head of Fire Borg and the body of Lightning Borg.
NOTE #2: Walter Jones, Austin St. John, and Jason David Frank had a mini-reunion with this episode, as all three were from the original team of Power Rangers (Red, Black, and Green/White). Christopher Khayman Lee and Selwyn Ward also had a reunion (both of them served on the In Space team as Red and Blue, respectively).
