Operation Overdrive Ranger data 5: The Pink Ranger


ROSE ORTIZ
Rose Ortiz is the Pink Overdrive Ranger. She is a Mensa level genius with an encyclopedic knowledge regarding almost any subject, from geography to the Overdrive equipment. As she herself states she's "never wrong."

Before joining the team she was building a robot in a University lab in London, as well as writing a paper on Advanced Nuclear Robotics Science, and at Harvard she took a year in Ancient Universal Legends.

At the beginning of the series Rose is shown as a semi punk/scene type of girl. Later on in the series, she is seen as more of a girly girl. She also claims she learned how to translate morse code by the age of four. Despite her high intelligence, she shows a highly casual nature and is often found chewing something. She is also a highly dangerous fighter, defeatling Mig on her own, and doing the same with Miratrix & one of Kamdor's monsters.

Growing up so quickly because of her high intelligence, (even skipping most of grade school, starting college at eight years old), Rose didn't have much of a childhood. She set her sights on increasing her knowledge to an extensive amount, partially because as a little girl she never felt unique or special in any way. It's her experiences as a Ranger that teach her that she's special, that she has friends who care about her, and that she can let loose once in a while and enjoy herself, even while having to save the world.

Rose was the one who mixed zord based technology with the Sentinel Sword to create a new armor. She mentioned it was not safe for humans, and this was used by Mack Hartford as his Battlizer, making him the Red Sentinel Ranger.

At the end of the series, Rose, knowing intelligence is something to be proud of decides to go back to teaching.


Power and Equipments
Rose's genetic power is invisibility. Her primary weapon is the Drive Geyser, and she drives the Sub and Shovel Driver Zords, as well as the Drive Roader Zord.
