Overview: David Robert Jones (who, yes, prefers to be referred by his full name at all times) is a major diva and a real pain to work with. He demands nothing less than perfection from anybody including himself. There are many who believe that's he past his prime and too old for rock n' roll, but David Robert Jones spits on such doubt.
He's been big - still is - and just wants to get bigger and bigger until he's the biggest rock star in all of rock star history. Despite his massive ego, he's a nice guy at heart (no, really). He may have left Running Offbeat, but that doesn't mean he's stopped being a Rockranger. If there's person being attacked by a Discord except David Robert Jones to make grand entrance being laying the smack down.
Hero Stuff
Name: Rockranger Silver
Type Of Hero: Sentai Senshi
Henshin Device: Rock Jammer - a device worn on his left arm that resembles his instrument of choice, in his case, a keytar.
Henshin Sequence: After the Jammer appears on his left arm, he holds it up, then plays a set of notes on the kets, and says "Let's Shine! Rockranger Silver!". He's then engulfed in a dazzling silver light, as camera flashes go off all around his head before gathering to form his helmet's visor. He then rests his hand over his ears, as if holding on headphones, as the modules on the sides of his helmet appear, and then the rest of his helmet forms, and with a flash, so does the rest of his suit.
Forms:
- Form Name: Rockranger Silver
Image/ Description: His helmet sorta looks like this, except silver (obviously) and instead of circles for the visor its stars. The white on his helmet (such as the mouthpiece) is gold instead of white.
His suit is also mainly silver, composed of a material that resembles leather. The top is a silver, zipped up (and actually armored) jacket that flows down past his knees, with a set of gold stripes going from above his left hip, to over his right shoulder, resembling a musical bar that lacks notes. the shoulders of this jacket are gold, leading down the sleeves in gold stripes to slim silver bracers with black straps. His gloves, which are black, appear fingerless, except the fingers are in silver leather. There is a set of five silver tassels attached to the bottom of each sleave.
His pants are a darker shade of silver, with a gold going down from his hips to the silver and black accented boots his pants are tucked into.
Every part of suit is blindingly shiny and glittery from the helmet to the boots.
Motif: Music
Color Scheme: Silver, gold, black
Transformation: See above
Fighting Style: Practitioner of the Capoeira style of Martial Arts.
Weapons:- Beat Blaster/Blade - The standard sidearm of the Rockrangers, the B-B is a sleek, black laser blaster that can be converted into an energy saber with only a flick of the firing assembly to line up with the handle of the blaster.
- KeyBlade - The personal weapon of Rockranger Silver. Looks like this, but without the logo and the jagged edge is lined with a sharp blade so it sorta looks like an axe with keys. Besides sonic blasts, the tip can fire a scatter shot of colorful laser beams.
Abilities: Along with enhanced speed and strength, Rockranger Red can call on his RO-D, Ziggy, to help him Up-Tempo, accelerating him to the speed he needs to keep up with and destroy Dischords. His weapon, the KeyBlade, can shoot out powerful sonic attacks that can potentially damage multiple enemies at once.
Finisher(s):- Sonic Cascade - Can only be performed with the rest of his team. The group gathers up in front of the enemy... and to put it in its simplest terms, rocks out, the combined sonic power usually proving to be enough to destroy most enemies.
- I'm in the Silver Spotlight! - The KeyBlade begins to vibrate rapidly after a certain tune is played. David then cuts through enemies like Swiss cheese usually while spinning his weapon around his body.
- Beat Blaster/Blade - The standard sidearm of the Rockrangers, the B-B is a sleek, black laser blaster that can be converted into an energy saber with only a flick of the firing assembly to line up with the handle of the blaster.

History
David Robert Jones grew up with a mom, a dad, and eleven brothers and sisters. He was constantly fighting for his parent's attention with his many siblings and more than often lost that very fight. This quickly developed into a psychological need for attention.
When David Robert Jones was a teenager in London, he started a band with some of his schoolmates called Space Oddity. The band did fairly well locally for a couple years, but Jones wanted more. He wanted to be an international superstar. His bandmates were happy with their current popularity (especially with the ladies) and didn't want to risk it by trying to swim in a bigger pond.
This didn't sit well with Jones and ensuing fight causing the band to break apart. David faded into obscurity for some time until he was eventually discovered by a man named Alfred Davis. Not only was he impressed with David's talent as a performer, but also with his talent at Capoeira.
Davis was forming a band and wanted Jones to be the lead singer. Of course David agreed and Running Offbeat was born soon after. The group was an instant hit and David found himself right back on the round to international mega-stardom. Rocking the hearts of millions wasn't the band's only purpose though. Using the Rockranger gear developed by Davis, Jones and his band fought against the monstrous Discords.
All was going good for Jones...until this young upstart by the name of Eric Shale joined the group as a backup singer and Rockranger Red. He quickly became quite popular with the fans - some of which thought his singing was on par with or even better than David Robert Jones himself.
This didn't sit well with Jones who eventually left the band after Davis refused to fire Shale (taking the Rockranger Silver gear with him). He went solo - continuing to ride on his popularity with the Offbeat fanbase.

Sample RP:
David Robert Jones, in all of his glory, sat in a comfortable arm chair - his feet resting on a stool. He was reading the paper, looking for any mention of his name like he usually did, and sipping hot chocolate.
"David Robert Jones," he muttered while scanning the fifth page in, "David Robert Jones...Eureka! There i am!"
He cleared his throat before he began to read, "David Robert Jones, an AGING British rockstar played Jerome Stadium to a crowd of...blah, blah, blah! AGING?!"
David spat on the paper, crumbled it up, and tossed it into his fireplace.
"What does that supposed to mean?!" he gripped, "We all age!"
He sat back in his chair and sighed, remembering the good old days as the leader singer of Running Offbeat....
