Knights of Death

The Knights of Death were generals of the Extinctionors who had pledged their services to Zagan and were the vessels for Azazel's resurrection.

Josh Peterson
Josh Peterson was the first Knight of Death. Prior to becoming evil, Josh Peterson was a normal man who was a Senior at Orlando University. He was best friends with Damon Cartwright, the Black Ancient Warrior Ranger. Zagan and the other Extinctionors planned on using a spell to transform Damon into an Evil Ranger. Once he became evil, Damon could successfully destroy the Ancient Warrior Rangers from the inside. When Damon was on his way home from hanging out with Josh, Zagan prepared to shoot Damon with the evil spell. However, the spell went haywire and hit Josh, who had followed Damon to give him his forgotten backpack. Josh became evil and he disappeared from Orlando, Florida, taking refuge in the Ice Prison where the other Extinctionors lived. Once there Josh pledged his allegiance to Zagan and the Extinctionor Army. In return, Zagan gave Josh the Navy Blue Ancient Warrior Ranger Power Cell Morpher, an item Zagan had modified for his own evil purposes. When Josh activated it he became the Knight of Death - an evil variation of the Navy Blue Ancient Warrior Ranger.

Meanwhile, Damon and Josh's family put up flyers and advertisements for his disappearance. Not long after the disappearance was reported, The Knight of Death appeared in Orlando. The Rangers were immediately notified but found that he was extremely stronger than the rest of them. The Knight of Death caused all the rangers to fall to the ground and demorph but left them out of pity (Episode 26: When Evil Strikes).

The Knight of Death returned various times along with monsters he had created. The rangers began to notice that each monster the Knight of Death sent had represented qualities in each of the rangers, and believed the Knight of Death could be somebody they knew and trusted. The rangers began to become paranoid and fearful of all of those they trusted and suspected Mason Sanders, their technology expert, to be working as the Knight of Death. This was proven to be false, however, when the Knight of Death came to the Treehouse, the hideout of the rangers, and destroyed all the technology inside. This attack occured with Mason inside, and made him unconsious. Although Mason woke up with only minor injuries, the rangers apoligized profusely. Without their weapons, the rangers believed that they could not stop the Knight of Death or the Extinctionor Army from taking control of the world. It was only a matter of time before the Extinctionors would conquer the planet.
