Devon Daniels is Beast Morphers Red and the team leader of the Beast Morphers Power Rangers.
Retroactively he can be referred to as Red Beast Morphers Ranger or Beast Morphers Red Ranger - as a variation of his label in the show.
Character History
Devon Daniels is the son of Mayor Adam Daniels. He is a brown belt in karate, loves to play video games, and not much into serious work, much to the chagrin of his father. Upon discovering that his father was up for a trip to Grid Battleforce, which Devon knows houses an advanced battle simulator, he copies the barcode on his father's guest pass. Having entered, he gets mistaken for an employee and sent to the Morphing Lab, where he witnesses Evox corrupting the system. He gets caught and tries to warn Commander Shaw and system creator Nate Silva of the virus but gets detained instead. His holding cell's door breaks down once Evox takes over the system and he finds himself in the line of fire. He saves Ravi Shaw from getting turned into an avatar and helps him and laundry girl Zoey Reeves fight off the evil avatars of those who would have been Rangers. Nate forces the Red Ranger morph on Devon to give them a fighting chance. As he is now the Red Ranger, with animal DNA infused in him, Grid Battleforce takes him in. 
TV STORY-Beasts Unleashed
On his first day at Grid Battleforce, he is introduced to Cruise, his Beast Bot sidekick and was shown his Beast Racer Zord. Later in the area of a warehouse district, Blaze and Scrozzle had arrived to steal Morph-X, then Devon, Ravi, and Zoey arrived along with Ben and Betty who watched the rangers in action against Blaze as he morphed and summoned the Tronics to attack the rangers, but Devon intended to defeat the Blaze and to retrieve the Morph-X. With a small amount of luck, the rangers morphed and attacked the Tronics while Blaze and Scrozzle fled with an good amount of Morph-X. TV STORY-Evox's Revenge

Personality
Devon is impatient and a rule breaker, but who also seeks to find a challenge for himself. He also shows signs of being overconfident. He has a strong love for karate and video games, but dislikes the job positions that his father attempts to supply him with. However, despite all of these traits, Devon acts as a big brother for Ravi & Zoey, even reminding them to stop bickering. His big brother instinct eventually led Ravi & Zoey to appoint him as team leader because Devon himself was a natural born leader despite being a slacker.
Powers and Abilities
Powers
- Super Speed: Due to being linked with Cheetah DNA; Devon can move at extremely fast speeds. When also using the Fury Cell in his new Battlizer, Devon became much more faster than his original powers were.
- Wall Running: During his battle with Vargoyle, he was able to run fast enough that he can run on walls.
- Super Strength: In Episode 15, Devon spotted two bank robbers trying to escape with bags full of cash, Devon quickly transformed then used the Red Fury Morph-X Key to transform into Red Fury Mode once again to catch the robbers who were trying to escape in their vehicle; they were caught red handed by Devon as he lifted up their vehicle. This ability was lost when Devon realized the Fury Cell powering his Fury Mode was slowly turning him evil and he had to discard it.
Weaknesses
- Cynophobia: Due to being linked with Cheetah DNA that was semi-corrupted from Evox; whenever he confronts a dog (since cheetahs are part of the feline lineage as cats, and cats are scared of dogs) he is instantly frozen, even in mid-air.
- Fury Cell Corruption: The Fury Cell was used to make any Robotron stronger, but then it was used to become Devon's New Power Up. This does has one side effect to it; when Devon uses the power of the Fury Cell, it would slowly turn him evil and act out into anger with his team and/or commander. Later in Episode 15, a battle with a Robotron and the rangers had occurred, but then Devon appeared to personally destroy the Robotron without his team's help. Roxy wanted Devon to use the last Fury Cell so he can become evil and turn against his friends, but he then quickly snatched the Fury Cell back and smashed it to realize that the cell was corrupting him and turning him against his own team.
Beast Morphers Red
- "It’s Morphin Time! Activate Beast Power!"

This form is the Red Ranger's default form used in battle against the Robotrons or other villainous characters. Devon can manually transform into the red ranger with using his Beast-X Morpher and Morph-X Key, however for him to be able to transform he must be bonded with the Cheetah DNA in order to morph into the Red Ranger. While piloting his zord, Devon summons the Cheetah Beast Blaster to perform a finishing strike, however part of his helmet comes down onto his visor creating an alternate visor for him to use in megazord mode or his his battle mode when only using his Racer Zord.

Behind the Scenes
Portrayal
- Devon Daniels is portrayed by Rorrie D. Travis & and his suit actor in Sentai footage is Hirofumi Fukuzawa (福沢 博文 Fukuzawa Hirofumi), & Yoshifumi Oshikawa (押川 善文 Oshikawa Yoshifumi).
Notes
- He is the second Ranger to be based on a cheetah, after Lily Chilman from Jungle Fury.
- He is also the first Red Ranger to have a cheetah theme.
- He is also the second Red Ranger with super speed, after Conner McKnight from Dino Thunder.
- He is the second Ranger to be the son of a high-ranking government official, after Scott Truman from Power Rangers RPM.
