The Power Coins themselves have been known to generate heat strong enough to melt metal.<br />
The Power Coins are capable of minor shapeshifting between looking like ancient gold coins or having more crystalline features.

Profile

Zachary "Zack" Taylor has always been a bit of a cad, the life of the party and a rebel that doesn't need a cause. An on-again, off-again student at Angel Grove High School, Zack can often be found wandering the halls, pulling pranks or taking up space in his desk for his various brushes with detention. A former cheerleader and track sprinter, Zack's popularity never really took a hit when he stopped being a representative for Angel Grove High's stellar sports program. Instead, his popularity shifted into a whole new brand of wise-ass. All of which he uses to hide from and deal with his troublesome home life.

Things got turned up a notch when this teenager with attitude stumbled upon some new friends and ancient alien artifacts. Chosen by the Power Coin of the Mastodon, Zack became the Black Ranger of the Power Rangers. He works alongside the other Power Rangers as a protector of Angel Grove while trying to figure out exactly what the future holds.

History

Zachary "Zack" Taylor has had an interesting life ever since he was born. His father, Walter Jones Taylor, was an African American real estate agent and his mother, Tala Bayani, was a Filipino teacher at Angel Grove Middle School. Their relationship brought Zack into this world and he was a shining light from the moment he was born. His childhood was riddled with jokes, laughter and a healthy relationship with his parents. It was the most average childhood that one could have in the town of Angel Grove.
In school, Zack was always the class clown with solid grades and an outgoing personality that made him one of the popular kids. He rocked this natural charisma and persona all the way into middle school and even managed to continue to roll with his popularity during the years that he was in his mother's classroom. Even though his rebellious nature bubbled up during his middle school days, Zack always managed to smile or dance his way out of any real trouble. Most of his pranks or schemes were harmless and done more for the enjoyment of all than to actually hurt or ruin anyone's day.
Zack moved on from middle school and walked right into the summer from hell. In the span of three months, Zack's mother fell very ill, his father left to pursue another relationship and the results of being thrust into the role of Man of the House put enough pressure on Zack for him to explode. Instead, though, Zack retreated even more into his fun-loving persona and turned up the rebellious antics to give himself a bit more edge. A bit more attitude.
Zack hit high school and wrapped himself up in a tornado of pranks, wisecracks and extracurricular activities to keep himself sane while doing through so much drama and stress at home. He retreated even further into his love for music. He joined the cheerleading squad as a way to try and find something in his life worth caring about. His style of popularity shifted, though, as he stopped being a good student and moved more into world of someone that only cared about where the next laugh was coming from. Eventually, lackluster grades got him kicked off the cheerleading squad and his rebellious antics got him a regular desk in the corner of detention. His troubles at school fueled his excuse to attend less and spend more time with his Mom or on his own.
Zack spent a lot of time dancing by himself in abandoned rail yards or running through rock quarries. One of these visits got him caught up in some madness with four other teenagers from Angel Grove High. Together, they discovered alien artifacts that gave them all incredible powers and abilities. After separating and almost dying that night, the five teenagers with various attitudes met again and discovered the source of these alien artifacts. They met an alien being known as Zordon and his robot companion, Alpha 5. There they learned the origins of their artifacts, which were known as Power Coins. They were trained to become a team of chosen protectors. They had become the Power Rangers.
Zack embraced his role as the Black Ranger and found himself with some new friends and a reason to care again. With his newfound lease on life, Zack Taylor works with his Power Rangers to protect Angel Grove (and the world) from whatever evil threats dare to rear their ugly heads. For his Mother. For Angel Grove. For the World.
It's Morphin' Time.

Personality

Zack is a fun-loving, wisecrackin' teenager with attitude. Zack's primary role in life seems to be 'fun one'. In school he takes up the role as the class clown and tends to try his best to make his friends (or anyone) laugh. He's a jokester and a prankster without malicious intent. He's always good to step it up and throw some witty banter in the direction of anyone that's within earshot. A sarcastic and self-deprecating sense of humor keeps him from falling into the realm of being a complete jerk and leans him more towards that of a lovable cad!
A rebellious wild streak is very present in Zack's nature. He's often doing something to show just how fearless and uncaring he is but in the most wild ways possible. He doesn't care what anyone thinks, excluding a handful of people and he's more than willing to make a fool of himself. He seems to often go against the grain for no other reason other than to just rebel against the status quo. His sick mother and horrible father figure have shown him that life should be lived to the fullest every day because tomorrow everything could change. Nothing is promised so Zack doesn't believe in his own future. Even if he fights for everyone else's.
Underneath it all, Zack is a broken individual that deals with every problem as it comes. He's brash and impulsive, even sometimes to the point of being hotheaded under the right circumstances. It's hard to keep up with Zack as he tends to be a bit unpredictable but his heart is always in the right place when the chips are down. He wants to do the right thing. That's just the way he rolls.
Zack lives and breathes music. Music makes his world go around. Music is how he survives. Music keeps him sane. At least, it did before he became a Power Ranger. Now Zack doesn't have to rely so much on music as he actually has friends to lean on. He's found another family to replace the one he's going to eventually lose and that makes him as fierce and as loyal as he needs to be to protect them. They are bonded together, forever and he'll be damned if he gives any of that up without a fight.
