Andresians are an unnamed Human-like species from an Earth-like planet known as Andresia, who were almost entirely wiped out by an alien force known as the Armada.
Biology[]
Andresians appear to be identical to Humans in outward appearance, with any differences in internal physiology unknown. Like Humans, Sirians, Aquitians, Triforians, and many other humanoid species, they are capable of becoming Power Rangers.
Culture and society[]
Andresians are known to have been organized in villages, at least on some part of Andresia. Andresians are known to have had a mining industry, and appeared to have lacked either the troops or firepower to fend off the Armada's invasion. In addition, their society appeared only about as advanced as those seen on early 21st century Earth, and their planet was described as being similar to Earth. While the true extent of their space capabilities is unknown, it appears likely that they did not have significant developments in that field, although one of their members, Orion, knew enough about space to be able to travel through it, and the robot Tensou, who laid dormant with Gosei on Earth, knew Andresian, so it is possible that they had some contact with other alien lifeforms.
Technology[]
Andresians appear to have had a similar level of technology as 21st century Earth, and appeared to have lacked planetary defenses. If Tensou is of Andresian origin, then they also had sophisticated robotics technology. The Andresians also presumably developed a handheld device that can grow organic beings to gargantuan sizes, which was scavenged and utilized by an alien criminal known as Ryjack. Andresian mining equipment includes pickaxes and other handheld tools, with no known heavy machinery.
History[]
Orion watches Andresia being invaded by the Armada
At some point in the past, the Legendary Silver Morpher and its key were buried in the mines of Andresia. At another point in time, the Andresians either developed or acquired a device that can cause beings to grow giant-sized, and possibly created a sapient robot known as Tensou, which was delivered to the being Gosei on Earth. By the 21st Century, Andresia was known to be similar to Earth in many ways, and a young Andresian miner named Orion came across the Legendary Silver Morpher while mining crystals. When he tried to use the key on the Morpher, he saw visions of various sixth Rangers from across time and space. Not knowing what to make of the visions, but figuring that they were trying to tell him something, he kept hold of the Morpher and Key, but did not use them. A week later, Andresia was attacked by an alien force known as the Armada, who sought to conquer the galaxy, destroying the Andresian civilization and slaughtering the populace. Orion managed to survive the attack, but found his village destroyed, his family presumably killed. Swearing vengeance, Orion morphed into the Silver Ranger. However, he was too late to save his world and was unable to find other survivors, so he hid in the wilderness, training himself in survival and combat over a few months. Armada ships began to leave for other targets, leaving only a few behind as guards. Orion, now seeking to defend other worlds from the Armada and avenge Andresia, used a slingshot to fire a rock into the engine of a passing Armada ship, jamming it and causing the ship to crash. After the pilot was retrieved, leaving the ship behind, Orion took months to repair it and teach himself how to fly it. He then took off from Andresia, chasing the Armada across the galaxy until he found them invading Earth. After roughly landing on Earth, he set off for the site of most of the Armada's incursions on Earth, Harwood County, the home of the Mega Rangers.
Utilizing the morpher, he operated as the Legendary Silver Ranger, and began hunting down Armada XBorg platoons sent to invade the county, also trying to blend in with the Human population by taking on a part-time job at a frozen yogurt shop known as Ernie's BrainFreeze. He soon ran into Gia Moran, the Yellow Mega Ranger. Later, Orion watched the Mega Rangers fight XBorgs and an alien commander known as Gorgax, noticing that Gorgax had a bomb built into his collar. Morphing into the Silver Ranger, he threw Gorgax' collar off and destroyed him, formally introducing himself to the Rangers and explaining his past on Andresia. He was later brought to Gosei, able to speak in Andresian with the robot Tensou, before joining the Rangers in fighting against more Armada incursions, even being granted the Q-Rex Drill Zord from Gosei. Orion was later kidnapped by Vrak, another Armada commander, but was saved by the robotic Ranger Robo Knight, who was supposedly destroyed in the process. The Mega Rangers soon destroyed the last two Armada generals present around Earth, supposedly ending the invasion. Deciding that the threat has been dealt with, Orion told the Mega Rangers that he wishes to return to Andresia, hoping to rebuild it the best he can.
After saying farewell to the Rangers and taking off, Orion soon intercepted an Armada transmission that stated that Emperor Mavro, the monarch and supreme commander of the Armada, was heading to Earth himself with the rest of his fleet. Knowing that the threat is still present, Orion turned his ship around and returned to Earth, helping the Mega Rangers fend off Armada forces. Orion used his ship to fly himself and Troy Burrows, the Red Mega Ranger, up to Mavro's ship. They fought their way to Mavro, with Orion fighting Mavro as Troy manages to take control of the ship and use its armaments to destroy the invasion fleet. They then brought the ship down with Mavro still in it, utilizing their Space Legendary Modes' Galaxy Gliders to safely land on the ground.
Mavro also survived the crash, and confronted the Rangers. The Rangers managed to injure him, making a gaping wound in his stomach, and Orion used the Super Mega Cannon at point-blank range to blast Mavro's wound, destroying him. However, before his destruction, Mavro managed to call all remaining Armada forces, consisting of a massive XBorg and Bruiser army, to destroy the Rangers. While ready to take on the army on their own, they soon receive aid from all the Legendary Rangers of the past. Orion fought in the battle alongside all the Rangers, and at the battle's end, all Armada forces were destroyed, ending their threat to the galaxy for good. In the wake of the battle and the end of the Armada, Orion decided to permanently settle on Earth.

Notes[]
- The name of this species is conjectural, based on the name of their home planet.
- While supposedly wiped out, Orion's decision to go back to Andresia gives a possibility that other Andresians survived the attack, and could be hiding in parts of the planet that Orion had not explored.
