Edenoites
-
- humanoid beings native to Edenoi
301-FIN1
The poisonous gases that the Edenoites
(prounounced "Eden-ites") were forced by Dregon's armada to dig up only hastened the
destruction of their planet.
The digging
Edenoites appeared to have antennae; Lexian's antennae were much longer than
his three fellow diggers' antennae.
Zordon said the
Edenoites were a highly intelligent and gentle race of people.
Dex and his three friends were particularly paranoid
of invaders.
When Billy tried to
explain that they'd gotten a report that Edenoi
was in danger, one of Dex's friends said they'd sent no message
to the likes of them.
Dex told the Rangers, "You pose as friends, yet your garments
betray you! You were sent by Count Dregon
to further enslave our people!"; the Rangers were
probably mistaken for the soldiers of Dregon's which wore tan and white suits
somewhat similar to Ranger suits.
302-FIN2
Dex had a silver crystal in
his forehead which glowed faintly with white light at key points in his
speech.
Dex was prince of Edenoi.
Dex's three friends had silver crystals on
their foreheads as well.
The Edenoite's mind crystals, silver crystals
located on their foreheads, gave them the ability to communicate their
thoughts as well as images.
According to Dex, Count Dregon had enslaved the Edenoites and
forced them to mine the soil, releasing noxious gases which would
ultimately destroy the planet.
For many centuries, Edenoi had been a planet of great peace without
the need for weapons or armies; Count
Dregon, knowing this, had waged an attack and enslaved the Edenoites, a race of scholars and artisans.
Some Edenoites had escaped the planet, but many more were still in hiding.
Dex explained, "Until Lexian can be returned to his rightful
throne, the people on Edenoi buy their time
slaving in the gas mines, depending on Masked
Rider to stave off Dregon's attempts
to destroy the planet. Until that day, our
rebel forces continue to fight bravely on, and I remain an outlaw under
the guise of the Masked Rider, trying to
bring some sense of hope to our people."
303-FIN3
When Adam asked Zordon what he thought would happen to the
Edenoites, whether he thought Lexian
and Dex would get them away from the planet in time, Zordon
replied that they were a strong-willed people and that he believed they
would succeed.
Billy was sorry they
hadn't had more time to get to know the Edenoites, Dex especially; Zordon said
there was much they could learn from the Edenoites, and that perhaps
there would be another chance.
On Edenoi after Dregon had been shown approaching Earth, Dex and Lexian were in a misty black chamber
with images of planets around them, light
streaming down from above, and they were wearing ancient white and gold
royal garments.
Lexian and a
saddened Dex had the following discussion in the
misty black chamber:
Lexian: "The time has come, Dex."
Dex: "But, Grandfather, I can't just leave
you."
Lexian: "You must. It is too late
for our planet now. Our spirit will live on to guide you to your
destiny."
Dex: "My destiny?"
Lexian: "Planet Earth is Dregon's
next target. It will be up to you to protect it from destruction. Now,
go, before it is too late."
Dex: "Grandfather, I will always love you."
Lexian: "And I, you,
Dex."
334-ARA1
To help convince Zordon
to call the Aquitian Rangers for help,
young Rocky reminded him of their helping of Dex
on Edenoi; since Alpha and the teens most likely would have checked up on the Edenoites' well-being some time after 303-FIN3 and Rocky probably wouldn't have mentioned their helping the Edenoites if the Edenoites had lost their struggle, it can be inferred that the Edenoites survived the crisis.

Masked Rider's allies
-
- three allies of Prince Dex, a.k.a. Masked Rider
301-FIN1
Dex and three friends were
all dressed in gas masks and brown cloaks with white sashes to fight the
Rangers, whom they thought were intruders.
Masked Rider appeared to fight the Rangers just as well as his three unmorphed Edenoite friends did.
When Billy tried to
explain that they'd gotten a report that Edenoi
was in danger, one of Dex's friends said they'd
sent no message to the likes of them.
The female friend suddenly stopped attacking when
Aisha mentioned that they had only come because
Alpha had asked them to.
One of the male
fighters was shocked that Billy knew that Edenoi's surface was being disrupted, but Billy could have known this easily if he had indeed
been sent by Dregon.
302-FIN2
Dex's friends called him
"Sire."
Dex's long-haired
Asian-looking friend was Ferrian, the shorter-haired friend was Donais,
and the female friend with brown hair was Zarius.
While the three friends had fought the Rangers with Masked
Rider earlier, they now hid safely as Masked Rider and the Rangers fought the Plague Patrol and Cogworts.
404-Trgt
Jennifer, Rocky's science project partner, looked exactly
like Zarius, but without the mind crystal.
"Edenoites."
