- "Here, master."
- ―Volkan's first lines as he gives Moltor the Fire Heart Scale.[src]
Volkan is a humanoid bulky Salamander/Lava Lizard-like monster that is a powered up Lava Lizard. Volkan served Moltor. He serves as the secondary antagonist of the episode "At All Cost".
History[]
Originally a Lava Lizard that proved himelf to be strongest Salamander among all Lava Lizards. Because of his strength and skill, Moltor transformed him into a powerful volcanic half Dragon, half lizard version of itself called Volkan. In the first battle with Rangers, the monster was too powerful for them. He had strong armor and could shoot fire from his mouth.
His mission was to steal Fire Heart's scale while in route to Hartford Mansion. He was initially too powerful for the Rangers until they found they could damage him by attacking his back.
Moltor's plan was to use the scale to power up this monster into the ultimate beast by exposing the scale to the increasing temperature of the factory where they were located. But the scale was stolen from the building before preventing the building's explosion using the DriveMax Megazord's Cement Formation. With the Rangers reclaiming the scale for the new Defender Vest, Volkan was destroyed by Mack Hartford with the new Drill Blaster weapon. TV STORY-At All Cost
