Master Vile

Master Vile, voiced by Tom Wyner, was the father of Rita Repulsa and Rito Revolto. His home planet was in the M51 Galaxy.

Master Vile arrived on the moon in search of the legendary Zeo Crystal during the third season of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. He very nearly succeeded, capturing both the Crystal and the Rangers' zords, and even throwing an "End of the World Party" in the Youth Center, before entering battle against the Power Rangers themselves. Vile grew to giant size and survived the finishing attacks of both the Shogun and Ninja Megafalconzords. On his retreat to the moon, he considered the failure nothing but a minor setback and decided to stay.

Vile later sent his old ally Dischordia to battle the Rangers, and she nearly succeeded in taking control of the Rangers' minds. Vile was foiled once again, however, as Dischordia met her end courtesy of the Shogun Ultrazord.

Vile then summoned the Orb of Doom to the Earth, which he used to revert the Rangers to powerless children. He prevented Lord Zedd, Rita, Goldar, and Rito from destroying Angel Grove, revealing that he had more plans for the Earth. He sent a selection of monsters to invade the planet, led by his field general, Professor Longnose. When the invasion was defeated by the Aquitian Rangers, Vile threw a tantrum and fled back to his galaxy, where he said evil always wins.

When the Machine Empire arrived on the moon, Rita called Vile and begged him to let them stay with him. Vile agreed, despite the fact that Rita would be bringing "that husband of hers."

Master Vile was last seen on the Cimmerian Planet, attending Dark Specter's conference. He was not seen in Countdown to Destruction.
