History
Jarrod/Dai Shi summoning Rinshi.
Rinshi were JiangShi-like warriors who traveled by hopping forward or backward. They appeared to lack the ability to speak beyond going "HUH! HUH! HUH!" when hopping. On occasion they wield staffs for battle that harnessed and released energy. They were also infiltrators, as in several episodes they appear as regular people (such as thieves or technicians) to trap the Power Rangers.
