Personality[]
Like his mainstream counterpart, Zordon is a wise alien entity, who guides the Power Rangers in putting an end to Rita Repulsa's plan of destroying Earth by any means possible. In order to train them, he gives the rangers new powers to fight back against Rita Repulsa and her wicked machinations.
Unlike his Prime Reality counterpart, who was a father figure to the Rangers and treated them fairly and with respect, Zordon is a military leader and as such expects the new Rangers to follow his instructions to the letter. This causes frustration on his part as he is dealing with teenagers. Zordon also has a secretive side, as seen by him not fully explaining every part of his plan to the Rangers. He is a consummate leader and is wise, but racked with guilt at the death of his previous Power Rangers team, at the hands of Rita Repulsa, the Green Ranger, once his friend.
In addition to his dedication as a Ranger, Zordon also possessed a calculating and somewhat selfish nature, as he planned on using the new generation of Power Rangers to resurrect himself in order to fight Rita. However, upon being subjected to Jason's cold temper and dissenting remarks when faced with this selfishness, Zordon has a change of heart and decided to sacrifice his chance to live again in order to bring Billy back to life after the Blue Ranger died protecting his friends. Zordon remarked that there was no need for two Red Rangers when questioned by the Power Rangers for this decision, passing the torch down to them, and coming to terms with his own death.
