Emperor Mavro is the overarching antagonist of the Power Rangers Megaforce series.
He is the leader of the Armada as well as the father of Prince Vekar and Vrak. He favors Vrak more than Vekar due the latter being more intelligent and serious. He is also the Mega Rangers' archenemy and the most powerful and dangerous enemy the Mega Rangers team ever faced. After the defeats of all of his minions and underlings, such as Warstar leaders, including Admiral Malkor, his sons Vekar and Vrak, Toxic Beasts and all of his Armada generals, Mavro decided to take down the Rangers and conquer the Earth with his forces himself. He eventually became the final enemy and opponent the Super Mega Rangers faced in the finale of Super Megaforce.
He was voiced by Mike Drew, who also previously voiced Mirloc in Power Rangers: S.P.D..
History[]
Invasion of Earth[]
Mavro was first seen in a flashback speaking to Damaras, some time before Warstar attacked the Earth. He tells Damaras even Vekar is incompetent and dimwitted compared to his brother Vrak, as the first born son Vekar is destined to succeed his throne. He tells Damaras that wants to serve Vekar's second in command of the Armada, which he agrees to. When he learns of the Armada's failures to defeat the Power Rangers, Mavro sends elite guard member Matacore to assist Vekar in conquering Earth and destroying the Power Rangers.
However, the Rangers are able to defeat Matacore. After many more repeated failures, Mavro sends two of his Royal Guards to deliver the Armada Megazord to Vekar to assist him in taking over Earth. However, the rangers were able to destroy Argus (Vekar's bodyguard), the two Royal Guards and combine their megazords and destroy the Armada Megazord, resulting in the death of Prince Vekar as well.
Revenge[]
Upon learning of both Vrak and Vekar's deaths by the Power Rangers, Marvo arrived at Earth with his army and his generals Redker and Yellzor, to avenge his sons' deaths. He destroys Damara's fleet to have failed to conquer the Earth and to protect Vekar. Persuaded by Levira, Mavro gives one chance to Damaras redeem himself, only to he is destroyed by the Rangers. Later, Mavro sends Levira on a suicidal mission too, for having failed to protect Vekar and Damaras' failure.
After Levira's death, Mavro sends the First Wave of Armada's ships against the Rangers but they destroy all of them. But Mavro uses the Second Wave and destroy all Rangers's Zords (except Turbo Falcon returned to Corinth Dimension). Then, he destroys the Legendary Megazord and thinks that the Rangers are deceased. he addresses to the humans to claim his victory and informs them of Rangers' death. He left one night and concludes in saying that him and The Armada will return tomorrow to exterminate them.
Final Battle and Death[]
Mavro appears with his fleet when the Rangers fight Redker. Then Troy and Orion (Red and Silver Rangers) attack his huge fleet with Orion's ship. Troy uses the Mothership's weapons to destroys the entire fleet while Orion holds him back (killing Yellzor off-screen). Redker is destroyed by the others Rangers on Earth. Angered by the lost of his army, Mavro continues to attack Troy and Orion but they refuse to give up and Mavro is finally destroyed by them. His Mothership is destroyed soon after.
In the Extended Version, Mavro survives at the crash of his ship and fights the Rangers only to be destroyed by Orion with the Super Mega Cannon. Before exploded, Mavro calls the rest of his army (X-Borgs and Bruisers) to finish the Rangers. But the Legendary Rangers come to aid the Mega Rangers and the Armada is destroyed once and for all.
Personality[]
Emperor Mavro is the strict and ruthless ruler of the Armada. He is very self-entitled as he claimed to be the ruler of the universe in his time. He treats all of his servants as extensions to his will. However, he isn't entirely heartless as he displays compassion for his sons, Vekar and Vrak. He showed greater favor towards Vrak, as he could operate on his own, unlike Prince Vekar, but showed greater concern for Vekar's well-being.
It appears that Armada tradition of the firstborn inheriting the throne prevented Mavro from making Vrak the heir. His children in turn tried to impress him. Although Mavro favored Vrak over Vekar, Vrak still felt the need to prove his worth to him since Vekar is the firstborn heir. Additionally, Vekar stated that Vrak always hogged the glory whenever possible. While being very egotistical himself, Mavro seemed to think that Vrak was too egotistical for his liking, and sought to humble him by having him serve under Admiral Malkor. After hearing that both of his sons have perished, he became determined to avenge them by destroying the Rangers. Due to enjoying countless victories over the years, Mavro developed a superiority complex as he deemed himself invincible in battle. He has claimed to have survived far worse than Orion and Troy's attempt at destroying Mavro by blowing up the Armada Mothership with him. However, his arrogance is his flaw as it eventually led to his downfall.
Powers and Abilities[]
Emperor Mavro is so powerful that he is able to dodge every attack even while sitting down, giving him power that far exceeds that of Vrak, Admiral Malkor, Creepox, Bigs, Bluefur, Metal Alice, The Messenger, Prince Vekar, Argus, Damaras, Levira, Yellzor and Redker combined. Although Damaras declares himself to be the most powerful, that is actually false because Damaras only holds the title out of reputation. Unlike Malkor and Vrak, Mavro's power is consistent, as he does not get his power from a metamorphosis like Malkor nor does he change form or use stolen powers like Vrak, being powerful from his own accord without outside sources.
- Shoulder Fireballs: Mavro can shoot powerful fireballs from his shoulders, which can cause large explosions.
- Ultra Strength: Mavro is the strongest opponent that the Super Mega Rangers had ever faced.
- High Durability: Mavro's body is resilient and impervious to most attacks as shown in the true final battle, it took the power of most of the Super Megaforce Ranger's Legendary Ranger Modes to defeat him. Even then, nothing significantly case him to the point that the blow from Orion in Gold Mode that broke his sword only made him fall to one knee. Even the Super Mega Sabre Blast and Orion's spear throw merely made a sound on his stomach. The only way to destroy him was by shoving the Super Mega Cannon right in the wound in his middle and blasting into it otherwise he will not die.
- Royal Leadership: Due to his great leadership, Mavro leads a galactic empire.
- Battle Skills: Mavro can hold his own against just about any foe.
- Quick Reflexes: Mavro can block any attack effortlessly from his opponents even while sitting down.
Arsenal[]
- Royal Sword: Mavro possesses a sword which excels in both offense and defense. He uses it against his enemies as well as to symbolize authority towards the Armada.
- Royal Sword Wave: Mavro can also fire a powerful yellow energy wave from his sword.
- Armada Megazord: A Megazord which Mavro designed. It is equipped with a chest cannon, gauntlets that can fire powerful arrows, a reinforced armor which is impervious to almost any attack, and the ability of hyper speed. He later gave this to Vekar.
Weaknesses[]
- Arrogance: While he rarely showed it, but Mavro's primary weakness was his immense arrogance and pride, since he considered himself utterly and absolutely invincible and underestimated Super Megaforce Rangers, who eventually managed to defeat the evil alien tyrant.
Enemies[]
- Troy Burrows
- Jake Holling
- Orion
- Gia Moran
- Emma Goodall
- Noah Carver
- Legendary Rangers
Trivia[]
- Dark Doctor Mavro from the Ninninger/ToQger crossover would later share his name, but with a different title.
- His name is the Greek word for "Black" (μαύρο).
