Scars/Tattoos/Other Markings:
Mike is...well Mike. There isn't much in the way that sets him apart from the crowd either. He's an average guy of average height and average weight. He has a muscular build but its nothing really noticeable. He has no tattoos or piercings but he does have several scars from different encounters--perhaps the most noticeable one is the one across the middle of his back. It was from the very first encounter with the original Magna Defender down in that crevice. It reminds him just how close he came to dying. And how grateful he should really be. As for clothing--its mainly jeans a t-shirts. A jacket if its needed. And that's about it...simple, yes, but it works for him.
Personality:
Mike is definitely a guy who takes what he does seriously. He knows what he has to do and he does it. And he won't stop till he gets it done. He isn't one to stop, or give up or back down from challenges. And he has always believed that there's some solution to any problem. Though he can over think things at times...he's trying. He's always been one to try and think things through instead of running in head first.
He's very protective over friends and specially his brother and would willingly take a shot for him if he had to. With everything that has happened, he gets a little on edge about things. But he also knows that no one is stupid either. And so he doesn't really say anything about it nor tell anyone about it either.
Though that's not to say that he can't have fun though. He is rather easy going guy with a slightly wry sense of humor. The whole spiel with the Magna Defender has left him with a whole new appreciation for life. And how quick it could be taken away from you. And so he never says no to anything new anymore.
History:
Birthplace: Angel Grove
Current Residence: Angel Grove
Father: Andrew Corbett (Deceased)
Mother: Melissa Corbett (Deceased)
Siblings: Leo Corbett
Other: N/A
Mike's early life with his parents and his little brother in Angel Grove was as normal as it could be. His parents expected him to be the role model and his little brother looking up to him. It was normal. There was no reason to think that anything would happen...right? Wrong. There parents were killed in a car crash and Mike had gained legal guardianship. It was a tough loss for him, but he knew he had move on. He couldn't afford to get stuck in his grief (that wasn't to say he didn't have his moments though).
He would soon become a member of the GSA and be offered a position as one of the security personnel on the space colony Terra Venture, which he accepted. He fully expected his brother to stay on Earth...only to later find out Leo had snuck aboard. He wasn't too happy with it...but at that point in time, they had already taken off and so there wasn't a lot he could do about it. They--along with Kai, Kendrix and Damon--would meet a girl from another planet. Her name was Maya and she needed their help. They went through the spatial rift to another world. It was Maya's home planet--Miranoi. Long story short--they had found the five Quasar Sabers and pulled them out from the stone. Then Furio began to turn everyone into stone in anger for not being able to get the sabers for himself. Then there was the crevice. Mike had only moments before he knew that he was going to loose the grip he had on that flimsy hand hold and fall. And so he did what he thought was the best choice--he gave his brother the Red Quasar saber before falling--to his death most would have assumed.
But that was not the end of the story. It was just the beginning.
Mike had been saved...pinned to the wall by some type of sword. The blow had him seeing stars and he wouldn't have been able to make out the figure even if he had wanted to. He would later find out that it was the Magna Defender. And that he had been trapped down there for three thousand years. And that he had used his life force...his spirit...to free himself so that he could get revenge on the one who killed his son. But his morals had been skewed. He was putting innocent people in danger--and even the rangers at some points. And Mike could not--would not stand for that. And so he literally caused the Magna Defender great pain anytime hatred would take over or that he would let it overwhelm what was right. Eventually Mike would be free when the Manga Defender sacrificed himself to save the colony.
Leo would then try to give him back the Quasar Saber but Mike refused to take it. There were other things in store for him. He wasn't sure what--but that saber wasn't meant for him anyways.It was in the ranger's next battle in that the spirit of the original Magna Defender gave him his powers. He was now a ranger....able to harness every power that the old Magna Defender had...though without the vengeance.
He still works for Stanton and all...and life is back to normal? Normal....yeah such a relative term now a days. But hey--its what it is. Mike really doesn't complain. He is alive after all...
