The Chillers are humanoid stone/ice monsters and are Flurious' foot soldiers.
History[]
These monsters are the personal foot soldiers of Flurious that shatter into ice bits when defeated. They can also freeze things with their ice abilities. When Flurious destroys them, they turn into snow. They are usually created through Chiller Stones. They worked for Moltor briefly in "Just Like Me", when Norg brought Chiller Stones to him in exchange for residence in Moltor's volcano when Flurious briefly kicked him out of his icy lair. They were all destroyed in "Crown and Punishment".
Personality[]
The Chillers are ruthless creatures that will destroy anything in their path and usually make grunting noises. But they are also loyal to Flurious.

Etymology[]
- These grunts are simply named for their origins in ice-cold conditions.
Notes[]
- In the Power Rangers Operation Overdrive toyline, the Chillers are referred to as 'Evil Space Aliens', instead of Chillers, despite not having anything to do with Rita and Zedd's group of villains. This is because 'Evil Space Alien' is a general term used by Bandai when releasing villains before they are explicitly named in the show.
- The Chillers are very similar to the Hidiacs from the previous season, Power Rangers Mystic Force.
- The Chillers are based on the Warrior Wheel from Power Rangers Zeo.
- In the episode "Once a Ranger - Part 2", Tyzonn used one of them to blast the entire army of Chillers around him using its mouth ice balls whilst battling Vulturus.
- While the Chillers have an ice motif, their Japanese equivalents have a stone motif.
