This is a list of villains in Power Rangers: Jungle Fury. It is referred to in the theme song as the Dai Shi Clan.
Dai Shi
Dai Shi is an ancient evil entity, existing for at least 10,000 years, who wanted to rid world of the human race and believed that animals should be the rightful rulers. He was defeated by warriors, that formed the Order of Claw, and was trapped inside a chest. However, thanks to Jarrod attacking Mao, Dai Shi was released from the seal, killing Mao before using Jarrod's body to revive his Rinshi and continue where he left off, starting the "Beast War" anew. He has a completely evil and brutal personality, similar to Lord Zedd when he was first introduced.
It was slightly hinted in the first episode that Dai Shi is a Chinese Dragon spirit, given his elongated appearance before he possessed Jarrod.
Jarrod
Jarrod was a student of the Pai Zhuq and wielder of the lion spirit, able to assume a black lion/Ranger-like armored form when in battle. Though he was highly skilled enough to earn the chance to become one of the guardians of Dai Shi's prison, Jarrod's arrogance forced Master Mao to dismiss him and select Casey instead. In response, Jarrod attacks Mao, accidentally freeing the evil Dai Shi from his prison. Jarrod flees in the chaos, but is taken over by Dai Shi as he runs away. Although he now serves as Dai Shi's host, Jarrod still retains his memories and emotions, as well as self-control. Blaming Casey for his expulsion, Jarrod eventually shows up in person and demonstrates his superiorty to the Red Ranger at the time the Five Fingers of Poison began their attack, easily defeating Casey without breaking a sweat.
After the Five Fingers were destroyed, Jarrod undergoes the search for the three Overlords, starting with Carnisoar, to master their dark ways. Upon Carnisoar's revival, the wicked master took Jarrod back through time and altered his past, erasing any good deeds Jarrod had done in an effort to help Dai Shi reach the peak of his evil powers. After mastering Jellica's teachings, Jarrod calls out the Rangers to systematically defeat them until R.J. arrives and surrenders himself to save the rangers. After defeating R.J., Jarrod challenges the Rangers with R.J. as bait. Though he has the upperhand at first, Jarrod is easily defeated by the Red Ranger in his Jungle Master Mode.
After Grizzaka overthrew him, Jarrod began a training to master the power of Zocato like Grizakka did. During one of his trainings, Master Mao's spirit appeared to try to get through to what's left of Jarrod. It is this encounter that causes him to go on a quest to the Rhino Nexus to enhance his powers.
He is portrayed by Bede Skinner.
Camille
Camille is the female servant of Dai Shi, an ill-tempered user of the Chameleon spirit, which gives her the ability to camouflage into her backgrounds and use her tongue as a weapon in battle. She can also change into a Chameleon-like warrior for her battle mode, using a pair of sai as her weapons of choice. She remained quietly inside a wall until Dai Shi returned in Jarrod's body, resuming her role as his second in command. She serves Dai Shi out of devoted passion, proving herself by perfecting her abilities by withstanding the Claw Cannon and absorbing a bit of its energy before saving her master from Naja, slicing off his Life Talons for Dai Shi to use in his search for the Overlords. Her other various abilities include boosting the power of the Rinshi Beasts.
It is hinted that she may have feelings for Dai Shi/Jarrod as she commented that she found Dai Shi's new body to be attractive and she strives to gain his favor. She was also displeased at Dai Shi's change of personality after Carnisoar's training, deciding to resurrect Jellica to accomplish that. She also openly comments that she cares for him to Lily while she was in disguise. Despite his cold treatment of her, Jarrod may carry the same feelings for her as he saved her twice from Jellica's wrath, though the second time he said it was because she was still of use. She spares Lily's life when given the opportunity to destroy her, showing Camille has good inside of her that she is withholding.
Camille is followed, and annoyed by, the tiny fly, Flit. She once fought him as a human and cursed him by changing him into his current form and then swallowed him. As a part of the curse, Flit must stay in Camille's stomach or die. While she normally shows him aggression, she has shown a softer side to him meaning she may care about him.
She is portrayed by Holly Shanahan.
Flit
Flit was originally a martial artist who fought Camille before she cursed him into the form of an anthropomorphic fly and then swallowed him. While not truly evil, he usually resides in Camille's stomach as a result of his curse otherwise he will die. Normally emerging during Zord battles, Flit monitors the Rangers' fight as a Battle Commentator. Regardless of who has the upper hand, Flit maintains a neutral standpoint and unbiased commentary. When R.J. saves his life, Flit returns the favors by helping R.J. get control of his animal spirit before he is forced to return to Camille when the curse's effects manifest from being away from her for too long. After these events the rangers, especialy R.J., see Flit as a friend.
Flit is voiced by Kelson Henderson.
The Overlords
The three Overlords were a trio of demon warriors defeated and slain by the forces of good prior to the series, each with a bracelet that holds that Overlord's soul. Each one holds power over the levels of the world, namely sky, sea, and earth. After the 5 Fingers of Poison were destroyed, Dai Shi commands Camille to bring him the three bracelets of the Three Overlords and also to give him three remaining Life Talons she had taken from Naja, intending to resurrect the Overlords and increase his power through their teaching methods.
Carnisoar
Carnisoar is the Sky Overlord and the holder of the Hawk spirit, a master of aerial martial arts. Intending to resurrect the Overlords to become stronger, Dai Shi chooses Carnisoar to be the first to Camille's dismay due to his brutal teaching methods. Upon his revival, Carnisoar took Jarrod into the past to eliminate every good deeds that he did as a child, making him stronger as a result. After this, Carnisoar returned to Dai Shi's hideout to begin the actual training, teaching Jarrod to harness his hatred as power until Jellica was revived. After Jarrod manages to beat Jellica, Carnisoar leaves Jarrod's training to her. He returned to help Jarrod kill the Rangers briefly, reviving the Blue Shadow Guard.
Carnisoar is voiced by Cameron Rhodes.
Jellica
Jellica is the Sea Overlord and the holder of the Jellyfish spirit, a staff wielding mistress who can neutralize her opponents' physical attacks by having them pass right through her. She is revived by Camille so Dai Shi can train under her instead of Carnisoar. However, at first, she forced Camille to be her student and has her attack the Rangers after she personally defeated the Jungle Pride Megazord without trouble. But when Camille couldn't follow her orders, she attacked her with Lily going to her aid followed by Jarrod, who defeats Jellica in a brief fight. By then, she reveals that her mentoring of Camille was a test to see if Dai Shi truly desired her power, becoming Jarrod's new mentor, teaching him to harness his deceit as power. She helped Jarrod and Carnisoar to try killing the Rangers by reviving the White Shadow Guard.
Jellica is voiced by Elisabeth Easther.
Grizzaka
Grizzaka is the Earth Overlord and holder of the Grizzly Bear spirit, master of the power of Zocato that makes him the strongest of the Overlords. After Dai Shi's defeat by the Jungle Master Red Ranger, Carnisoar and Jellica send Camille to revive Grizzaka to increase Dai Shi's power. However, being short-tempered, Grizzaka blames Dai Shi for losing the Beast War centuries ago and hates humans even more. Once revived by Camille, whom he attacked until she pleas him to come with her, Grizzaka overthrows Dai Shi because of his current status as a human and becomes the new leader with Carnisoar and Jellica switching loyalites out of fear of their wellbeing. His current goal is to gather the Crystal Eyes that will release the Phantom Beasts from their prison.
Grizzaka is voiced by Derek Judge.
Rinshi
The Rinshi are Dai Shi's army of spear wielding foot soldiers used to attack the city and they move by hopping with their arms forward. Certain Rinshi are enhanced by Dai Shi, gaining a new attire and an animal signature on the forehead. These Rinshi can assume the forms of the Rinshi Beasts, who fight in the manner of the animal spirit they possess. After they are defeated, they normally turn to dust.
Queen Narissa
Queen Narissa is the primary antagonist of Walt Disney Pictures' hit Enchanted (2007). She was portrayed/voiced by actress Susan Sarandon and animated by Disney veteran Andreas Deja.
Narissa finds her position as Queen of the animated realm, Andalasia in grave danger when her stepson Prince Edward falls in love with the innocently stunning Giselle . The cruel Queen banishes Giselle to the very real world of New York City to keep her from wedding Edward and stealing her crown.
Narissa is a comical yet refined villainess whose mannerisms, characteristics, and aesthetic features are inspired by such classical Disney villainesses as The Evil Queen, Lady Tremaine, Maleficent, and Yzma.
