Character History[]
Ryan Lee was born on May 24, 2049, into a family with a deep-rooted connection to space exploration. His father, Michael Lee, was a second-generation immigrant from China who had always dreamed of venturing beyond Earth's boundaries. Michael moved to Japan to become part of the ASTRO-23 space mission, a monumental undertaking that occurred from 2037 to 2047.
Growing up, Ryan heard countless stories of his father's daring space adventures and witnessed the profound impact Michael's career had on their family. Ryan felt the immense weight of his father's legacy and the substantial expectations placed upon him. He lived in the shadow of Michael Lee's achievements and was determined to prove himself worthy of the Lee family name. The desire to follow in his father's adventurous footsteps and make him proud became a driving force in Ryan's life.
With a thirst for adventure and a relentless determination, Ryan embarked on his own journey into the world of space exploration. His goal was to become a Power Ranger and protect Earth and its allies from interplanetary threats. The prospect of carrying on his family's legacy and honoring his father's memory inspired him to pursue this path.
In 2065, at the age of 16, Ryan entered the Power Rangers ASTRO Force Academy (PRAFA). There, he underwent rigorous training and honed his combat skills, all while carrying the legacy of the Lee family with him. As he advanced through his training, he learned valuable lessons about leadership, teamwork, and the responsibilities that came with being a Power Ranger.
Ryan joined A.S.T.R.O. Force 2 following the retirement of Darrick in 2069. During his time on this team, he grew close to Nemora Wylder, forming a strong bond with her. However, tragedy struck in 2074 when Nemora was comatose in a battle with the rogue alien pirate Hackbeard, leaving Ryan devastated.
In 2075, Ryan was the only member of A.S.T.R.O. Force 2 who was capable of joining A.S.T.R.O. Force 3. Despite the challenges and losses he had experienced, Ryan remained determined to honor not only his father's legacy, but now Nemora and protect the cosmos as a Power Ranger.
Personality[]

He embodies the qualities of a dedicated and stoic person, always striving to maintain a calm and collected demeanor, especially in the face of adversity. Growing up with the weight of his father's legacy and the desire to honor his memory, Ryan has developed a strong sense of responsibility and duty.
Despite his composed exterior, Ryan carries a profound emotional burden. The comatose state of his close friend and teammate, Nemora, weighs heavily on him, even though he tries to keep his emotions hidden. He often internalizes his feelings, believing that showing vulnerability would hinder his ability to protect the team. It is this internal struggle that often causes him to lash out at his team in anger. Ryan always attempts to push his limits and strive for excellence in every mission. He is fiercely loyal to his team and values the bonds of trust and camaraderie that develop among them. While he may appear unyielding, beneath the surface, Ryan is driven by a deep sense of compassion and a desire to protect those he cares about.
He has an unwavering commitment to following protocols and ensuring that every mission is executed with precision. This dedication to order and structure often gets him into conflict with some of the rangers who prefer more unorthodox solutions.
