Murasaki, Tetomu's grandmother玉山鉄二, Tetsuji Tamayama (confirmed) is the name of the actor who plays Gao Silver, SPARKING WOLF, who is companion to Gao Wolf. A thousand years ago the Gao Rangers' most powerful formation, Gao God, was defeated by a particularly dangerous Highness Duke Aurg (perhaps the last Aurg our heroes will face!! Could it have been the Gao Master?). In desperation, Shirogane (Shirogane means Silver, by the way, in the olden days) donned the mask of Loki, which would tremendously enhance the power of his three Power Animals, as well as his own power. Despite frantic warning from their priestess, Murasaki that it would turn him into a demon, he did it. He knew what would happen anyway. He lasted long enough to defeat the Aurg. Then the mask transformed him into Loki. And he begged his former companions to stop him while he still had a vestige of control. Then the Gaoranger sealed him away....

Turned loose and freed of his curse in the present time, we will eventually learn his real name, 大神月麿, Oogami Tsukumaro. Interesting choice of kanji. Great, god, moon and... well, I'm failing to find that last one. Unlike the others, he gets the G-brace-phone, which he wears on his wrist, tears off the band, opens and hollars "Gao Access" etc. His weapon is the Gao Hustler Rod. Er, maybe. It romanizes as gaohasuraaroddo. It has three modes, Sabre, Sniper and Break. In Break, the handle can be slid up and down the "blade!" In Sniper, the handle reverses. Nice thing. He has a very nice jacket, his own special belt buckle, AND his own vehicle, the Wolf Roader (which is his companion. Hey, we were introduced to the Giraffe in this manner....). He killed Ura, though that one came back and now has a personal grudge against Silver.

Silver's fighting style is sometimes based around Pool. He uses the Gao Hustler Rod as one would use a pool cue to send his three orbs into battle or formation. However, he does not actually know the game, and has been taken under the tuteledge of a bartender/Billiard Master who sees his potential. He also plays the flute. He used to play it for Gao God and Gao Deer, with Murasaki singing.
