Time Force Power Rangers - Eric Myers

Eric Myers (played by Daniel Southworth) is the Quantum Ranger, the sixth ranger of the Time Force Power Rangers.

Eric is first seen as a soldier working for the Silver Guardians, an organization established by Mr. Collins to protect Bio-Lab. Wes later reveals that they attended the same private school. Whereas Wes came from a rich family, Eric worked hard and was dirt poor, and eventually decided to leave the school, saying he had "bigger plans". Eric was resentful for having to work so hard while Wes did not have to work at all. From this, Eric grew bitter and had few friends, although Wes did try to befriend him on several occasions.

After discovering that Wes is the Red Time Force Ranger, Eric attempts to find his own powers. He becomes aware that the Time Force Power Rangers are looking for the Quantum Ranger power, and he gets to it first and morphs. He refuses to hand the powers over to the rangers. The rangers didn't trust him. Wes tries to get the Quantum Ranger power and Wes and Eric fight each other. Eric defeated Wes and Time Force Rangers were unable to get it back. The rangers have no choice but leave him alone and accept him. Wes later accompanies him in a journey back in time to find the Quantum Ranger's Megazord, the Q-Rex. Time Force HQ, aids Eric, by giving him new powers.

Eric becomes a reluctant ally to the regular Rangers, remaining separate and occasionally aiding them at certain times. Unlike Wes, Eric works alone and doesn't let someone like Jen push him around. Eric acts more like lone wolf leader. As time goes by, the rangers learned to trust Eric. During the end of the series, Eric is severely injured by a laser shot from a Cyclobot after taking a shot meant for Wes and Mr.Collins, and he hands his morpher over to Wes. (He was originally supposed to die, like his Timeranger equivalent, Naoto Takizawa, but this was later changed because higher management did not like the original ending.) He recovers, though, and becomes co-leader of the Silver Guardians with Wes who was offered command, but accepted only under the condition that Eric was his partner. The two from then on led the Silver Guardians (now working for free) in protecting the city from threats.

Eric later makes a few other appearances. Now best friends with Wes, he teams up with the other Time Force Rangers in the team-up battle with the Wild Force Power Rangers, who are trying to stop a trio of Mutant-Org hybrids. During this time, he develops a love/hate relationship with Taylor Earhardt, the Yellow Wild Force Ranger. He is also one of ten Red Rangers to battle in the episode Forever Red, which celebrated the tenth anniversary of the Power Rangers franchise. Due to his red color, Eric was the only Ranger to take part that was not a member of the core-team for their respective season, since Rocky DeSantos, the second red ranger from Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, was absent. He was considered to some fans as the second anti-hero in the franchise, after the original Magna Defender from PRLG.
