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.

• Black Ranger Power

Zack Taylor is the Black Ranger. Being chosen by the Mastodon Power Coin has given Zack amazing abilities that reach beyond the limits of baseline humanity. There are two separate levels of Power that exist due to Zack being chosen to represent and protect Earth as a Power Ranger.

Zack Taylor: Since bonding with the Power Coin of the Mastodon, Zack has been given access to an enhanced physicality that takes him far beyond the scope of baseline humanity. Given an impressive set of enhanced abilities consisting of Strength, Speed, Agility, Reflexes, Stamina and Durability. All of these abilities are present whether or not the Power Coin of the Mastodon is in his presence or not due to Power Coin bonding to Zack's Essence. In addition to elevating his physical abilities to incredible levels, Zack also has access to limited healing, leaping and wall-crawling abilities as well.

Black Ranger: Zack can undergo a "Morph" that allows his abilities to reach a second level that's more akin to being Superhuman. His Strength, Speed, Agility, Reflexes, Stamina and Durability are boosted significantly to put him in a class that's capable of going toe-to-toe with aliens, monsters and other vile creatures that he may end up crossing paths with. Due to the Armor Creation that happens when Zack morphs, his healing ability becomes even more limited but only because his body is even more protected while Morphed. His Leaping ability, on the other hand, is launched to an even higher level.

In either form, Zack is bonded to both the Power Coin of the Mastodon and the Mastodon Dinozord. He has a connection to the vehicular beast machine that is used in times of great need and to take down larger than life threats to Angel Grove and the world. Being chosen by the Power Coin of the Mastodon gives Zack a natural affinity for controlling the Mastodon Dinozord.

• Teenager With Attitude

Not just anyone can be a Power Ranger. In this particular combination of time and space there's a need to be a very special person... a teenager with attitude. Maybe it's fate or maybe it's destiny but there's a connection between Zack and the other Rangers. There's a connection that Zack has to the Power Coin of the Mastodon itself. One could say that it could even be considered his spirit animal.

There's a good possibility that Zack Taylor was born for this.

Skills

• Angel Grove Native

As a native of Angel Grove, Zack has extensive knowledge of the streets of Angel Grove as well as the people that live there. This is probably one of the only ways that his popularity can come into play to be something useful. He knows his town and the people in it.

• Athletics

Zack's an athletic individual and has been most of his life. He served on the cheerleading squad of Angel Grove High for a while and also was on their track team. Outside of school sanctioned sports Zack routinely practices martial arts, plays various sports in the park. His number one movement though is Dance. It doesn't get any better than that.

• Bilingual

Zack speaks English and Filipino fluently.

• Dancing

If there's anything that Zack is a master of it's the Dance. He loves to dance and has been dancing since he could move. While he's a capable hip hop dancer, Zack is also very well versed in different styles of dance and runs the gamut from his country line dancing all the way up to formal dancing like waltzes and ballroom. He could have a career as a choreographer if he wasn't so busy saving the world.

• Fashionista

Zack has a way with style and clothes. He's always up on the latest trends and has a sense of style that keeps him looking as cool as he presents himself. Through a series of favors and connections is the only way he keeps his wardrobe as befitting of his attitude.

• Hip Hop Kido

Zack Taylor is the creator of Hip Hop Kido. It's a specialized martial arts style that combines elements of dance with elements of martial arts. He's very well trained in the martial arts himself and has taken it to another level by sprinkling it with dance moves. It makes his fighting style hard to read and predict thus giving him an advantage against some opponents.

• Music Trivia

Zack knows music more than he knows anything else. Artists, years, songs and various other information that is considered useless knowledge by the majority of the world. He's like a walking Wikipedia when it comes to music. Maybe some day this'll come in handy.

• Parkour

Zack has some limited parkour and urban climbing experience due to his knack for being places he has no business being. He often spends time up above and on top of things, watching the city of Angel Grove and the people to see what it's like to live a normal life. He's well versed in getting from one place to the other using only his hands and feet.

• Pranks

Zack knows pranks inside and out. He can almost spot them on sight or at least the set up. He's pretty good at making something out of nothing when it comes to setting up the pranks or things like that. Everything from the water bucket over the door to childish sound effects from his phone and a bluetooth speaker. The Zack Man's gonna' prank ya'!

• Ranger Training

Zack has underwent and continues to undergo training from Zordon and Alpha 5 on how to be a Power Ranger. This includes weapons and vehicle training, conditioning and preparation, strategy and tactics and alien knowledge. It's an ongoing process and pretty much the only thing that Zack wants to spend his time studying. He takes it serious because it's seriously fun.

• Street Magic

Zack has some credible talent when it comes to doing magic and illusions. He rocks best with cards or other sleight of hand tricks but he's also been known to dabble in slightly bigger tricks but he lacks the currency to pursue it as an investment. Instead, he just uses it to impress people.

• Teamwork

Zack has learned how to work with others. It was very difficult for him to learn how to trust and rely on other people but when he does, great things happen. He knows and understands how to play his role in a team situation and can work with others to compliment and assist where needed.

• Vocalist

Zack is a skilled enough vocalist to be perhaps, with proper training and guidance, do it professionally some day. Right now he can perform and rock talent shows and maybe small venues with his natural ability. Singing comes naturally to him but he can also craft a pretty mean rhyme or two when needed.
