Team: Space Rangers
Ranger Color: Red
Powers: Telekenisis-inherited through his family blood line through his legendary decendents the original Red space Ranger Andros and pink Galaxy ranger Karone. Unlike his older cousin Jackson Hammond he isn't as skilled with this ability thanks to his lack of confidence and his shyness which makes it hard to concentrate on the ability.
Personality: Unlike his older cousin Jack, Andy is no where near as bulky or even near as confidant. Andy is a wallflower in nature choosing to blend in so that he doesn't make a fool out of himself in public. Most people would absolutely crave to be a red ranger but Andy just wants to live a normal life now that he's on Earth with his big cousin Jack.
That said he knows that it is his birth right to take up the mantle of the Red space ranger if the world ever needed him to and so despite his not wanting to be in the lime light as a superhero or have the responsibility of one he will fight back his insecurities and step up to not only protect the Earth but the entire universe when the time finally comes. He knows that with the great power he has been given he has to uphold the responsibility that comes with it.
Aside from his responsibilities as a ranger and being from another planet Andy is just an average teenager which comes with it's own trials and rewards. The biggest problems Andy faces on a day to day basis is making friends and talking to girls while keeping his families secret. He doesn't have the Charisma that his cousin Jack has but he often does try to make an effort to be the best person he can be even as just normal Andy and hopefully when he doesn't have to save the universe people will see the worth while person behind the helmet.
History: Andy Hammond was born in the human colonized planet of Ko-35 on October 31'st 3003 and from the moment he was born he had massive expectations set upon him. You see he was born to a family that not had one but four Power Ranger Ancestor's in it. Those Ancestors were Andros the red space ranger ranger, Ashley Hammond the Yellow Turbo and space ranger, Karone the 2nd pink Galaxy ranger and Zhane the Silver space ranger. What made this fact even more stressful was that he had been chosen at a very young age alongside his cousin Jack Hammond to be the heir to the Red and Silver space ranger Legacy respectfully.
While Jack's part of the family who were descended from Zhane and Karone Hammond decided to live on Earth meaning that Andy had to go through his training and studies of being a ranger all on his own. The solitude was the hardest part for Andy because it meant that when he screwed up be it physically or mentally he had no one to blame but himself. The first part of his training began when he was about five years old and was his telekinisis training as well as learning the history of his ranger family. The ranger studies was the easiest out of the two as for some reason when it came time to try out the zord simulator that had been built he excelled rather quickly. Andy's telektic training however did not go so well due to his rather timid and shy personality ruining his concentration as he buckled under the massive pressure he was under.
When Andy turned eight his martial arts and weapon's training began. This was another place where Any excelled quite quickly but not in the same way his cousin Jack probably did. While Jack was all muscle, Andy was rather thin. Yes he had abs but his limbs were long and thin which made him rather agile. He was quite the climber, leaper and acrobat. Andy chose to use these traits in his fighting styles of choice of kick boxing and tai kwan do. The young ranger to be continued this training non-stop until he was 14 with very little chances for socializing which meant his social skills especially girls were incredibly lacking which lead to Andy becoming quite the shy wall flower. If he thought things were bad because of his lack of social skills they were about to get so much worse.
On the day of Andy's 15th birthday tragedy struck as a fleet of quantron's sent by darkonda and dark specture ambushed KO-35 while a fleet also landed on Earth at the exact same time. Their targets were Andy and Jack the future Red and Silver space rangers. Knowing that his son was part of the future of the universe his mom and dad quickly dragged Andy to the Astro megaship after grabbing not only the red Astro morpher and the Battlizer gauntlet but also the legendary Ashley Hammond's Turbo morpher and key.
Once at the ship Andy's parents shoved him inside with a duffle bag of clothes and a satchel bag containing the morpher,gauntlet and Turbo morpher. They then instructed the ship's on board AI D.E.C.A to lock down the ship with their son inside and sent a course for both the Astro megaship and the Delta Megaship to Earth town of Angel Grove while sending a distress message to Andy's cousin Jack and his family saying what happened that Andy was on his way to them. As the doors shut and the ships took off into space the last sound Andy heard was both of his parents being gunned down and with one horrible tragedy Andy had not only become an orphan but also the universe's next Red Space Ranger.
