Carter Grayson (PRLR Orange Ranger)

Carter Grayson is a Mariner Bay firefighter and the Red Lightspeed Ranger and the leader of the Lightspeed Rangers.

Biography
As a child, Carter was saved from a burning building by a mystery firefighter. This encounter led him to follow in his savior's footsteps and become a firefighter himself. He later found this mystery firefighter to be none other than Captain Mitchell. Over the years, Captain Mitchell kept a close eye on Carter, watching him become a fireman and saw he had the potential to be a great Power Ranger and leader.

Carter Grayson was one of Mariner Bay's best firefighters. His daredevil maneuvers risked his life, but saved those in danger. Carter is brave, headstrong, and quick thinking. Carter was the first to accept his role and took up the position of team leader as the Red Lightspeed Ranger, and courageously led the Rangers against Diabolico's forces. As the Red Ranger, Carter is a strong leader, however he is strict and by-the-book.

In Operation Lightspeed, he met the Mitchell sisters' Jane and Dana for the first time and fell in love with them but couldn't show his expression until they were alone.

In Lightspeed Teamwork, Carter confess her love to the sisters. Carter asked Jane and Dana to be his girlfriends which they agree as Dana and Jane like him when they first meet.

In Trial by Fire, he almost lost his one of his girlfriend, Jane completely due to his reckless.

In What If's 1, Carter, Dana and Jane decides to leave Mariner Bay and moved to Wenster Bay. Jane found a CD in her stuff after her fever gone down. Carter and Dana decided that all three of them watch the CD. The CDs revealed to Dana and Jane that they are half-sisters and part Native American. Carter revealed to the Mitchell' sisters that he is part Native American as well. Then Carter proposed to Dana and Jane as his wives.

In What If's 2, Carter married Dana and Jane. They are expected two babies from Dana and Jane at the same time. At eighteen weeks, Carter's wives are expecting two boys and two girls. At thirty-seven weeks, Carter's wives water broke and they head to the hospital. The doctors suggested an emergency C-Section on his wives in two different operation room. Carter want his wives to be together, not separate, and their doctor agree.

In Lightspeed Rangers' Secrets, Carter kissed Dana and Jane in one of the hallways after the Demonite's fight.

Physical appearance
Carter is Caucasian/Native American with short black hair and standing at 6'2" tall. He has muscular build. He wore red shirt, blue pants and a Lightspeed Rescue jacket.

Personality
As a career fireman, Carter's priority has always been the well-being of others. In his debut scene, he refuses to leave a burning building that's about to collapse without retrieving the civilians trapped inside. At the end of Lightspeed Rescue, he even urges his friends to close the lid of the tomb to the Shadow World so he can sacrifice himself to stop the demons from being unleashed. Carter's dutifulness to protect others is somewhat misguided. He never took a day off, even when Captain Mitchell gave the Rangers crystal clear orders to take a day off and relax. This was because he believed to help others, he must put himself through intense training, even if he isn't happy with it. It wasn't until a pep talk from Captain Mitchell did Carter finally realized even selfless people need time to themselves once and a while.

Carter is shown to be a brave individual with a warrior's pride. He refuses to retreat even when it was clear the resurrected and empowered Trifire and Magmavore were overpowering their Lightspeed Megazord and would rather die fighting. He could also be impulsive, sometimes performing actions that would result in more casualties if not for Captain Mitchel's guidance. He eventually learns to listen to Captain Mitchel's orders to retreat, realizing it's better to live to fight another day than to die for nothing. Carter also has a sharp battle instinct, shown when the Lightspeed Solarzord seemingly destroyed Diabolico and again when the Lightspeed Megazord seemingly destroyed Queen Bansheera, he concluded it was way too easy and accurately deducted during the second time that Queen Bansheera escaped, rather than being destroyed.
