Biography[]

Past[]

Divatox was raised as the adoptive daughter of Mama D, an infamous sea hag who raised her to be evil. After gathering a crew of alien cutthroats that included Rygog, Porto and her nephew Elgar, Divatox began travelling throughout space stealing numerous riches to satisfy her greed. She also became an acquaintance of Rita Repulsa at some point although it was more of a hostile rivalry than a friendship.

Sometime before 1997, Divatox's Crew was forcibly annexed into the United Alliance of Evil because Divatox feared Dark Specter but were allowed to continue thier pillaging. With the larger organisation's support, Divatox and her crew swelled in power and became extremely dangerous. In 1997, Divatox became aware of the powerful fire demon Maligore and how he was sealed away on the lost island of Muranthias. Hoping to marry him and use their combined power to pillage the galaxy so she tracked down Lerigot; the descendant of the wizards who sealed Maligore away.

Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie[]

Exactly one year after the destruction of the Machine Empire, Divatox attacks Liara and has her Piranhatrons search for Lerigot but he escapes. Desperate for help, Lerigot comes to Earth to seek help from the inactive Zeo Rangers but Divatox follows in her Subcraft; having also kidnapped his wife Yara and their daughter Bethel. Divatox captures Jason and Kimberly to use them as sacrifices for the demon and manages to use them to make the Power Rangers give up Lerigot but doesn't turn over Jason and Kimberly. With Lerigot in her hands, Divatox's Subcraft is able to travel through the Nemesis Triangle to the island of Muranthias. However, she soon becomes aware that the Zeo Rangers (having now become the Turbo Rangers) are following her so she calls Rita Repulsa for advice on how to take care of the Rangers only to be told that she should flee. After destroying the Ghost Galleon, she manages to awaken Maligore but the Power Rangers crash the ceremony and destroy the demon with the Turbo Megazord. Divatox becomes furious and swears vengeance on the Rangers but has to flee Muranthius as the volcano's eruption completely destroys the island.

Power Rangers Turbo[]

Sometime after the movie, Divatox rallies her entire army on another planet so that she can destroy or conquer the Earth and kill the Turbo Rangers as revenge for slaying Maligore. Divatox comes to Earth, landing her Subcraft in Angel Grove as a base and manages to find out who the Rangers really are and tries to sabotage their graduation ceremony but is unsuccessful. Divatox then sends bombs to constantly destroy Angel Grove whilst using monsters to distract the Rangers but all of the bombs are either disarmed, destroyed harmlessly or the effects are undone.

When the Blue Senturion comes to Earth and informs her that he has a message for Dimitria, the space pirate poses as the mentor to hear the message and is shocked by what she sees. In the future, Divatox will ally herself with Rita Repulsa, Lord Zedd, and the Machine Empire, defeat all the Power Rangers, and conquer the universe then divide it up amongst themselves. However, the idea of dividing the universe's riches is something Divatox doesn't like and later receives help from Mama D and General Havoc with the latter helping her to steal the Turbo Megazord and the Phantom Ranger's power ruby which she uses to take control of the Megazord. Divatox sends it into battle against the Rangers' Rescue Megazord but they regain control of it.

Divatox later sends the powerful monster Goldgoyle who manages to destroy both of the Rangers' Megazords at the cost of his life. Later, Rygog and Elgar manage to discover the location of the Power Chamber so Divatox sends her forces in an all-out assault on it. After having explosives planted inside, she detonates them and destroys the entire Power Chamber. After the dust settles, Divatox has her forces search the rubble to make sure that the Rangers really are gone but she receives a summons to the Cimmerian Planet for a meeting of the United Alliance of Evil. Though Divatox refuses the summons since she is on the verge of conquering Earth, she immediately listens when she find out that the summons came from Dark Specter and immediately packs up and leaves.

Power Rangers In Space[]

During the United Alliance of Evil's meeting on the Cimmerian Planet, Divatox is the talk of the conference for destroying the Turbo Rangers. She has a run in with Rita where she brags about destroying the Power Rangers but the Red Space Ranger is discovered spying on the meeting and escaped, Divatox is tasked with hiding Zordon until Dark Specter can completely drain his power. She first brings him to planet Hercuron but has to take him elsewhere after the Phantom Ranger discovers him there. Later, when Storm Blaster escapes, she contacts Astronema to see if she's seen it but ends up losing both vehicles to the Power Rangers with help from the Blue Turbo Ranger.

Divatox-human

Divatox purified

After Dark Specter initiates his conquest of the universe, Divatox attacks Gratha where she battles and defeats the Aquitarian Rangers. She is shocked and outraged when Astronema is announced as the new Queen of Evil. After Zordon's Energy Wave sweeos across the universe, she tries to flee the wave even as it annihilates her army but is caught anyway. However, she is purified and turned human but what happened to her after this is unknown.

Dino Thunder[]

Divatox is featured in a chronicle of Power Ranger history compiled by Tommy shortly after he formed the Dino Rangers which is found by the nascent Ranger team in the Dino Lab. She is recalled ordering the final attack on the Power Chamber when Tommy recounts the final battle.

Personality[]

Divatox was an extremely cruel, vain, arrogant, manipulative, and pompous ruler who refused to accept defeat. She treated her henchmen like garbage, especially Elgar, though she seemed to have a soft spot for Rygog. Divatox was prone to hysterics and overreactions and was known to have a very short temper. She also became jealous of others quite easily due to being spoiled much of her life and never settled for second-best.

Powers and Abilities[]

  • Strength: Divatox was able to flip Visceron to the ground one-handed and defeat Elgar in an arm wrestling contest.
  • Teleportation: Divatox could teleport to any location at will in large spreads of red lightning.
  • Energy Blasts: Divatox could fire red lasers from her eyes strong enough to instantly defeat Dreadfeather.
  • Prehensile Tongue: Divatox's lizard/frog/toad-like tongue was able to capture both insects and a shrunken set of Turbo Rangers.
  • Monster Conversion: Divatox was also seen using her tongue to turn a Lunar Bat into Count Nocturne.
  • Voice Imitation: Just by clearing her throat, Divatox completely imitated Dimitria's voice in the episode "The Millennium Message."

Arsenal[]

  • Hidden Wrist Blade: On her left wrist, Divatox had a small curved blade hidden beneath a device which popped out when she triggered the mechanism. She only used this in the movie to cut off Elgar's hand.

Quotes[]

Idiots!!! You nitwits! And you! You lost Lerigot and let him get away.
~ Divatox’s first words after Lerigot escaped from her forces on Liaria.
Zordon, I know you can hear me so listen well. Lerigot must surrender. Say hello to Lerigot’s family; Yara, loving wife, and devoted mother to baby Bethel. Bring him to me. Oh, and as a little token of my appreciation, I’ll spare a couple of your favourite humans. They’re certainly not much to look at but my sensors tell me that they were once one of your- Oh what do you call them? Oh yes. ‘Power Rangers.'
~ Divatox's ransom demands.
All my plans! The money, the jewels, the plastic surgery. I didn’t even get a honeymoon! Mark my words, Rygog. The Power Rangers will pay for this someday!
~ Divatox after the death of Maligore.
Piranhatrons. Monsters. Fateful followers. You all know the reason we are here! The ruination of my plan to dominate the universe must be avenged! The Power Rangers will pay dearly! Their beloved Earth will become mine! Are you with me?!
~ Divatox rallying her forces at the start of the series.

Trivia[]

  • In Caranger, Divatox did not exist. The main antagonist was President Gynamo (who was adapted as Rygog), her equivalent Beauty Zonnette was a supporting antagonist and not truly evil, and the final antagonist was adapted as Goldgoyle.
  • Carol Hoyt played her as cold and calculating and Hilary Shepherd Turner played her as a spoiled brat. Hoyt had been hired to replace Turner when the latter took a pregnancy leave until "The Darkest Day" after which she returned to the role.
  • It was originally going to be revealed that Divatox was kidnapped as a baby and was actually the sister of Dimitria as an in-joke due to them having the same actress at the time.
    • These plans were abandoned when Douglas Sloan and Ann Austen left due to creative burnout and were replaced as head writer by Judd Lynn. However, the original plan is still evident in the show since the episode "Transmission Impossible" concluded with telling Dimitria she had a sister which ultimately went nowhere and Divatox perfectly imitated Dimitria's voice in the episode "The Millennium Message."
