Jangranger Lore Update (5-11-25)
4 months ago
Eyyo peeps! I’m back! And I brought updates!
Plotting and developing a story isn’t easy. Especially when you have a habit getting carried away with creating too many characters. Naturally trying to make a story / lore with all these African animal heroes is more daunting than I realized. But regardless, I have made some degree of progress in overhauling the story.
Firstly, the characters. For the villain faction Balakelami, Chodamu, Dhiigo, Drabuzu and Vertiti are going to be cut from the story entirely. It’s so I can make it easier when developing the characters. The same also be said for Asubuhi. I want Jade to be Mwako’s shaman advisor instead. (I MIGHT include Asubuhi as like a minor civilian character, but for now, she’s cut from the story.)
On the topic of me changing the species of some characters, Aimatna is going to be the impundulu now. Anansi is now going to be wilddog instead of a jackal, and I’m still debating whether or not I should make Sanjenmi a leopard or keep him as a panther. And this is most prevalent, I’m debating whether I should change Misty’s species at all. All I now is that she’s either gonna be cheetah instead or remain a tiger. I’m leaning towards the cheetah side.
Now for the plot of the Jangranger, I have two general ideas on how I want the story to be like. The core Jangranger team is composed of nine senshi, with Jade later joining as its tenth. That will remain unchanged. But what has changed a bit is what I want to do with the Dochorangers. (And this is essential to how I want the plot to be like.)
If I were to establish the Dochorangers in the lore, they would all be Obayifo. They would be like the Nejirangers; an antithesis to the Jangrangers, also doubling as MOTWs. Where Surea comes in is that she is trying to cure them of their vampiricism and return them to normal. She would get in the way of the Jangrangers finishing off her teammates and preventing the Sentai from killing them as DochoGold.
Though, if I were to NOT establish the Dochorangers as a rival Sentai team, I would make the story very similar to one of my favorite pieces of literature, Water Margin; as the story progresses, more and more animal species join the Jangrangers in some way. Kurba, Niobe, Tenaga, Muliwai, Taitimu, Hoku, and two extra characters I’ve thought up would in some part of the story end up joining the Sentai.
I might make it a combination of the two plots, but ultimately I want all the characters to have a degree of development in the long run. Whatever it takes to make sure the story’s good.
If you have any thoughts on how you think the story should be, let me know down below.
