General Ranger Headcanons
Ranger Teams are protective of their youngest members and their Reds. Sometimes, this does coincide, but for the most part, the youngest and the Red are separate people
Red Rangers generally have zero self-preservation instincts, either because of trauma or daredevil personalities
Blue Rangers can be the 'tech wiz', but generally, they're just extremely intelligent
Rangers all have a pretty solid relationship with gender and pronouns. Mostly because they see and fight aliens literally every day and have decided they have Bigger Things to worry about
Reds, Yellows, and Blues are usually always there on the Ranger teams, so it's common for them to be close
Rangers have a list that they pass down to the younger teams. This list details little things like how to help give each other strength to what pain medications can help the aches and pains go away fastest, because yes the suits take most of the blows, but that doesn't mean it doesn't hurt later
Some Rangers have PTSD, some have anxiety, some have depression. There are, in fact, numbers of former-Ranger therapists that the Rangers all know by heart
Teams don't really drift apart, they stick together because who else is gonna understand what it's like to witness the people you hang around daily almost die every other week?
Rangers drift toward other Rangers. It's due to the Morphin' Grid power they've been imbued with and the Morphin' Grid's pull to itself
There's a point in every Ranger's fight that shift-sleeping becomes the norm amongst teams. It's to stop nightmares, but also because of the paranoia that strikes when you're in fight or flight mode too long
Rangers from space or space-adjacent stick together
Rangers in general stick together, always. Where one Ranger is, another is typically not far behind. Some teams go so far as to get houses together, others just in the same neighborhood or town. Never far from each other, and never away for too long
The Power will never, can never abandon its chosen people. Once it makes its choices, it will not deviate. It doesn't stop looking out for its chosen ones either. Once you've bonded to the Morphin' Grid, you're stuck for life, regardless of being active or not
In Universe, people write fanfiction about the Rangers. Yes, they read it, sometimes they even like it. (Megaforce and down in particular find it hilarious)
The scone the Rangers find out about their Super Sentai counterpart shows, it's on. Some find them hilarious, some find them uncomfortable, but it's all in good fun for all of them
A list of common triggers is passed around to the Ranger teams, including but not limited to: loud noises, bugs, fog, robotic voices/static
Some of the Rangers (especially those who've been fighting for years) get therapy animals
Rangers have problems connecting to people who aren't Rangers or don't know about Rangers. Similar to military or police or doctors, Rangers are never truly off unless they're inactive and even then, it's a roll of the dice as to if they'll be pulled back in. Most of them have been doing this since they were teens, so they never truly got a chance. Preston Tien, Ninja Steel Blue, once described the experience as "playing with a half-deck whilst the other decks are rigged against you" and most of the other Rangers agreed
Every Ranger knows the pain of Nightmares, which is a big part of the reason shift-sleeping became so common amongst teams. Sleeping disorders are also common, which is not easy for the Rangers to deal with. When you're trained from a young age to be fighters and saviors of the planet, you don't walk away without trauma
Rangers who've gone Evil (or started Evil) and come back to the side of Good have each other's direct lines, Tommy Oliver, Karone, Trent Fernandez-Mercer, etc, all of them share a similar fear of suddenly turning evil again
Rangers do not like Zordon for his express need to put teenagers into a war that isn't even their's

I've been watching a lot of reviews for Megaforce and they reminded me of how much I hate that the characters have like one outfit.
(In my version, they don't have outfit changes until Super Megaforce) I tried to make Gia have a casual punk aesthetic. Like, she constantly looks cool without even trying. I also feel that she wouldn't be afraid to wear a skirts/dresses on occasion. Gia still has the same canonical outfit (so she can switch around the same leather jacket, combat boots, and yellow crop top)
Gia constantly steals Jake's hoodie, since in my headcanon they get together halfway through Super Megaforce. Also, I couldn't think of a design for Gia's shirt...so just imagine it being an old band t-shirt
Depending on how good this post does...I will do the rest of the Megaforce Rangers

A couple of my rangers never got proper introductions because I created them after my original round of posts, and Deja and Alessia are new with Dino Fury. Descriptions below the cut.
Autumn Harlow, Purple Mystic Ranger: She'd never admit it, but Autumn is just as interested in superheroes, magic, and fairy tales as school disaster Chip Thorn. When she's introduced to the world of the mystic and becomes a ranger, she's over the moon, but god forbid she let anyone know it.
Brynn Thomas, Gold Megaforce and Super Megaforce Ranger: When Brynn said she dreamed of stardom, she thought it would be on the stage or the screen, not behind a mask. She'd heard of the Power Rangers before, everyone has, but becoming one of them has definitely put a damper on her own plans of fame.
Deja Sullivan, Yellow Dino Fury Ranger: What started as a simple hiking excursion for Deja turned into a fight for her life. Purple knights, talking dinosaurs, and aliens are all way beyond what she ever expected to see in her lifetime, and that's before she was called upon to become a hero herself.
Alessia Lopez, Purple Dino Fury Ranger: As a journalism intern, Alessia found herself playing babysitter more often than working. Amelia always had her on a wild goose chase after a ghost or some nonsense, and all Alessia could do was follow her around. Until they ended up in some real danger- like, monsters and aliens danger.

Happy 30th anniversary, Power Rangers! In honor of this big milestone and Power Rangers Day in general, thought I'd post another one of my stylized Gia portraits to celebrate. I took this during my most recent shoot with Ciara earlier this year and it was so fun to shoot some portraits of her as Gia. It's always so cool to see how easily she slips back into character, she and Gia have diametrically opposite personalities!
This one's called "To Morph, or Not To Morph," btw.
