This article is about a set of villains in Power Rangers Lost Galaxy. |
Trakeena's Army, formerly known as Scorpius' Army, was an army of villains led by Scorpius and by his daughter Trakeena after his destruction. They served as the main antagonists of Power Rangers Lost Galaxy and remnants served as the main antagonist of the Lightspeed Rescue episode "Trakeena's Revenge."
They initially wanted to become the most powerful villains in the universe but, after Scorpius' death, just wanted to destroy Terra Venture as revenge.
Group History[]
Past[]
3000 years ago, Scorpius and his army invaded the planet of the Magna Defender, destroying its cities and looting all its valuables. The Magna Defender himself confronted Sledge, Radster and the Motor Mantis only to be confronted by Scorpius and the monster Fishface who held his son Zika hostage. In the resulting struggle, Zika was killed by Scorpius when he tried to attack the spider who escaped from the planet as the Magna Defender grieved.
Lost Galaxy[]
In 1999, Scorpius sends his top general Furio to the planet Mirinoi in hopes of getting his hands on the powerful Quasar Sabers. However, this fails as a native named Maya enlists the help of four Galactic Space Alliance soldiers from the space station Terra Venture for help. Although Furio and his Stingwingers fail to pull the Quasar Sabers out of the rock they are kept in, the five manage to pull them out and morph into the new Galaxy Rangers and defeat Furio. Defeated and disgraced, Furio retreats but not before turning the entirety of Mirinoi into stone which begins a vendetta for power by Scorpius. TV STORY-Quasar Quest
Maya senses that Scorpius has captured five of the legendary Galactabeasts so the Galaxy Rangers go to rescue them and manage to do so by distracting the Brunt monster. Although the Radster monster then confronts them, they free the Galactabeasts which scares off the monster which enrages Scorpius who orders Furio to take Radster and attack Terra Venture for the first time. Although the Radster monster is strong, even using a potion to enlarge, the Lion Galactabeast manages to kill him and Scorpius completely focuses on attacking Terra Venture from here onwards. TV STORY-Race to the Rescue
Scorpius decides to cease his attempts in getting the Quasar Sabers and sets his sights on the Lights of Orion, giving this job to his general Treacheron. He enlists the help of both Samuron and Ruptor but the Magna Defender (sealed away in a chasm long ago) returns and helps defeat both of them. TV STORY-The Magna Defender
Because Treacheron falls at odds with Trakeena however, due to the former's arrogant superiority complex and the latter's princess attitude, she uses his plan with Destruxo to frame Treacheron. Using her ally Impostra to impersonate Treacheron, she creates "proof" that he wants the Lights of Orion for himself and thus gets him imprisoned by Scorpius. TV STORY-Orion Returns
Despite his imprisonment, Treacheron is sprung by the Shark Brothers and plans to destroy Trakeena as revenge and defeat the Galaxy Rangers to regain his good standing with Scorpius. However, his attack on Trakeena fails due to the Rangers interfering and his attempt to destroy them results in his own death instead. TV STORY-Shark Attack
Not long after the death of Crumummy, Scorpius tells Trakeena that he has made a special cocoon for her which will evolve her into an insect with great powers at the cost of her human beauty. Being extremely vain, Trakeena refuses to sacrifice her human beauty and ran away from her father. TV STORY-Stolen Beauty
However, the power of the cocoon attracts another power hungry being; the treacherous robot Deviot. Deviot, desiring the great power the cocoon can give him, weasels his way into Scorpius' service, by giving him the Lost Galactabeasts as a present although these soon fall into the hands of the Galaxy Rangers. TV STORY-The Lost Galactabeasts
Deviot, seeing Scorpius as an obstacle to attaining the cocoon, manipulates him into thinking the Rangers have kidnapped Trakeena. Scorpius, blind with rage, fights the Rangers, but was mortally wounded in battle by Leo Corbett. Meanwhile, Trakeena hides herself on the planet Onyx, but gets into a fight with a few thugs only to be saved by the chivalrous warrior Villamax. Trakeena, being sheltered her entire life, had no combat experience at all, so she asked Villamax to train her. After a long an tiresome training, Trakeena finally becomes proficient at fighting but, not long after Villamax's sidekick Kegler brings Trakeena the news her father is heavily injured. Scorpius, being at the verge of death, almost gave the cocoon to Deviot, but was interfered by the return of his daughter Trakeena. She inherites Scorpius' powers and army and also employs Villamax and Kegler into her newly inherited army. Vowing to destroy the rangers for killing her father, she now focuses her plans and monsters towards said goal and abandons all goals relating to power. TV STORY-Heir to the Throne
Remaining on her team as a general, Deviot decides to try and kill Trakeena discreetly so hires Kubak and Teksa to destroy her during an attack on the Galaxy Rangers. However, the scheme falls apart due to her being too skilled and Deviot has to kill Kubak under the pretense of him preparing an attack to keep his secret. TV STORY-An Evil Game
Because Deviot is getting impatient, as none of his plans against Trakeena works. Instead of the cocoon, he set his sights on the Galaxy Book as he knows that it has the ability to give him large amounts of power. After getting his hands on the book by killing the Guardian and reciting the spell that will give him power, the resulting burst of energy opens a wormhole that pulls Terra Venture into the Lost Galaxy. Trakeena, fearing the Lost Galaxy, flees at the sight of the wormhole and thier role as main antagonists is taken over by Captain Mutiny and his crew. TV STORY-Enter the Lost Galaxy
After a while, Terra Venture manages to escape the Lost Galaxy pnly to be followed by Captain Mutiny in his floating castle. However, they are spotted by Trakeena who uses her Scorpion Stinger to destroy the castle and thusly killing the entire crew in the process. TV STORY-Escape the Lost Galaxy
Deviot, after working with Captain Mutiny for a while, survives the destruction of Mutiny's castle and pretends to have been kidnapped by the space pirate. Trakeena sees Deviot for the traitor he really is as she has realized that he switched sides at his convenience and orders Villamax to destroy him. Deviot, knowing his end is near, drags Trakeena and himself into the cocoon. This causes them to fuse into an insane and ruthless being, completely fixated on destroying Terra Venture and the Rangers no matter the cost. She starts by destroying the only remaining active engine of Terra Venture, causing the colony to crash on a nearby moon and orders all of her Stingwingers to blow themselves up at Terra Venture by using suicide vests. Villamax looks at all this in dismay, not recognizing the princess he vowed to serve. At the moment Trakeena orders him to shoot at innocent civilians, fleeing in space shuttles, he speaks out against her, telling her that it is the Rangers who killed her father and not the innocent people aboard the shuttle so he refuses to obey this order. Trakeena becomes angry at this disobedience and kills Villamax as the latter refuses to hurt her. She is at the point of carrying this order out herself but is met by the Astro Megaship which blows itself up, causing the Scorpion Stinger to crash on a nearby moon, destroying it and presumably taking Kegler with it.
However, Trakeena manages to survive, along with the cocoon and finally used to sacrifice her human beauty for enormous power, mutating into a powerful green insect creature. She uses her power to lift the remains of Terra Venture, planning to throw them into the nearby planet Mirinoi where the survivors are currently amassed. However, she is met by Leo who, after a heavy battle, shoots her at point-blank range in his Red Armored Ranger form, seemingly killing her in a massive explosion. TV STORY-Journey's End
Lightspeed Rescue[]
One year later however, it is revealed that Trakeena has survived and managed to return to her human form. However, the kamikaze attack from the Battilzer has left Trakeena horribly scarred; donning a mask, she vowes to make the Galaxy Rangers pay for taking her mortal beauty. Deciding to destroy their homeworld as payback, Trakeena heads to Earth in the midst of the attack by Queen Bansheera's Demons. Keeping herself in secret, and needing her own army due to wiping her own out in her final attack, she employs the double agent Demon Triskull to capture humans from Mariner Bay, intending to use their life energy to restore her back into her insectoid form so she could regain her great powers. Triskull claims to the Demon leadership that he will give the energy to them so they can restore Queen Bansheera to her proper form. Trakeena wasn't concerned by the demons, knowing that at full power she could easily destroy Olympius and Queen Bansheera.
Things proceed well with Trakeena hiding in a secret thirteenth floor of an office building whilst Triskull captures humans for her purpose. Unfortunately, her actions soon catch the attention of the Lightspeed Rangers who team up with the Galaxy Rangers to foil her. Making matters worse, Olympius, aware of Triskull's betrayal, decides to destroy both him and Trakeena along with the Rangers. To do so, he creates a dagger covered with poison stronger than that of ten taipans. As Olympius and his forces battle the Lightspeed Rangers and Galaxy Rangers, he thinks that it will be more efficient to let Trakeena destroy them himself or be destroyed by them. Taking advantage of having both sides fighting, Trakeena straps herself into the machine and begins siphoning the life energy to return to her insectoid form. However, Olympius decides to "let Trakeena have her wish" to mutate, tossing the dagger into the room. It taints the life energy, causing Trakeena to lose control of the mutation process; becoming energy, she flies into the city and becomes a giant mindless monstrosity. Olympius leaves satisfied, knowing that one of his enemies will be destroyed, if not both. The Galaxy and Lightspeed Rangers team up to battle her but, despite the help of the Galactabeasts, the are unable to stop her until the Omega Megazord becomes infused with the Lights of Orion. Trakeena is then destroyed forever by the Orion Omega Megazord which marks the end of this faction. TV STORY-Trakeena's Revenge
