Season 1
Discovery is a non-governmental organisation based in the city of Sovereign City, dedicated to exploration, research and defence of the Sub-Atomic Realm, an parallel, microscopic dimension, founded by commanding officer Solomon Burnham, an extra-terrestrial scientist and warrior from the fallen planet of Chimeria. He selects Billionaire and Discovery chairman Anton Baxter, experienced Discovery operatives Daniel Elahi and Laura Jacobs, and rookies Jimmy Sophocles and Erin Tucker, to participate in Isis III, the third of a long line of missions to Instinctia, a kingdom ruled by a race of andromorphic animals, and shrunk into the sub-atomic plane to isolate itself from those who threaten it.

During the crew's first mission, an accident leads to Xenu - an evil, ancient warrior who planned to shrink Earth into sub-atomic mass - being unleashed from Instinctia's core, which contains his essence. In his rampage, the freed Xenu lays waste to Instinctia and takes over Baxter's body, while the spirits of four fallen Instinctian masters are fused with the DNAs of the four remaining members. Michael Burnham, the commander's half-human son and a Discovery zoologist who met one of the Instinctian masters - Master Bird - as a child, finds out about the incident and decides to help the four surviving members. After their DNAs are studied and analysed, Commander Burnham grants the four Isis III crew members with he powers and abilities of the Discovery Rangers, making them Earth's only hope to stop Xenu - along with his lieutenants Narnette, Cubois and Snisog, and his army of mutant warriors attempting to take over the world and shrink it to sub-atomic mass. Against his father's wishes, Michael also joins the group as their fifth ranger, the Red Discovery Ranger.

Ranger Bios

 * Michael Burnham: The half-Human, half-Chimerian hybrid son of Discovery commander Solomon Burnham, Michael is a zoologist working in Discovery's species management unit. When he crosses paths with the Isis III crew and tells them that he knows lots about Instinctian culture, he offers to help them further - against his father's orders - and becomes the Red Ranger of the team. Michael shows great determination in guiding the Rangers, and is often shown to question authority, which puts him at odds with Daniel. As the series progresses, Michael gains access to an alternate, stronger "Gorilla Form" which he is later forced to discard it after learning that it fed on Zyncado, and became the second Whale Warrior after losing his Omnimorpher in a duel with Xenu, before regaining his default Eagle form when Lester found a spare morpher.
 * Laura Jacobs: A high-ranking Discovery Corps operative, Laura is the daughter and heir to the owner of a large automotive company, and dreams to become a top race car driver. She is chosen as the pilot of the Isis III mission, and as Xenu was unleashed, her DNA was fused with that of Master Michelle Fieng's, and she becomes the Blue Ranger. Laura acts as the team's big sister, and is very compassionate and caring, usually being the one who steps in to defuse tension among the others. She is the closest of the Rangers to Michael.
 * Daniel Elahi: A senior operative at Discovery Corps with many years of experience, Daniel previously served in Iraq, before becoming one of Discovery's most reliable operatives. He is appointed first lieutenant to Anton Baxter of the Isis III mission, and as Xenu was unleashed, his DNA was fused with that of Master Lion's, and he becomes the Yellow Ranger. Daniel is smart, structured and no-nonsense, and is extremely loyal to Commander Burnham. As a slightly serious ranger with a military background, he is often at odds with Michael's more reckless nature.
 * Jimmy Sophocles: The youngest member of the team, Jimmy was previously a slacker, unable to be educated as a result of her mother losing money to loan sharks. He is recruited to join the Isis III mission to serve as its systems operator, having previously impressed Lester by building a robotic bird, Digit. As Xenu was unleashed, his DNA was fused with that of Master Master Donald Trunk's, and he becomes the Green Ranger. A rookie member of the Discovery Ranger team, Jimmy is optimistic, energetic, and easy-going, and somewhat cowardly, and has a heated rivalry with Michael. He is best friends with Erin.
 * Erin Tucker: A college student and daughter of a scientist working at Discovery who was killed in an accident involving a quantum portal, Erin was recruited to join the Isis III mission's science officer. As Xenu was unleashed, her DNA was fused with that of Master Beria's, and she becomes the White Ranger. A rookie member of the Discovery Ranger team, Erin is very quiet, shy, and is usually viewed the loner of the group. Despite struggling to socialize with her teammates, she doesn't hesitate to help them when they are in danger, and has a soft spot for Jimmy, whom she considers her best friend.
 * Lester Crest: Lester previously served as Isis III's mission director. A senior employee at Discovery Corps with near-genius intellect - especially in technology, computing and quantum physics, Lester suffers from a wasting disease that left him wheelchair-bound, though he was able to walk for short distances with a walking stick. Initially, Lester serves as a technical advisor to the rangers, but after the Rangers retrieve an ancient weapon known as the Continental Tricon, Lester take it upon himself to activate the Tricon, purifying his disability and gaining the Instinctian Power of a Rhino, Wolf and a Crocodile, to become the Continental Ranger.
 * Commander Solomon Burnham: Solomon Burnham (born Shong Lei Myun) is the commander-in-chief of Discovery Corps and Michael's father, who serves as the Rangers' mentor, who is from the fallen planet of Chimmeria, which was decimated by Xenu years ago. Solomon is first shown to lead his team verbally rather than on the battlefield, and is shown to have a grumpy side when the rangers are not taking their job seriously however, he is also shown to care very much for his ranger team by giving them time off once in a while. In the second series, Solomon is given the Avalon Morpher as a present from Master Bird, and after some hesitation, he becomes the Avalon Ranger; however, this power is later revealed to be limited towards the end of the series.
