Ranger (The Animals of the Farthing Woods)

**Ranger** is a fox who is the son of Scarface in the books and the TV series. In the TV series he is a blue fox, but in the books he is an ordinary red fox. During the feud between his father and Fox, Ranger develops a relationship with Fox's daughter Charmer. Ranger is the only blue fox to appear in the third series.

Ranger is born in White Deer Park during the spring, along with two other cubs. Ranger's first appearance is when Bold encounters him while exploring in Scarface's territory. Ranger tells Bold to go back to his own territory, but responds positively when Bold suggests that they could be friends. Scarface arrives and attacks Bold, but Ranger shows no interest in joining the fight and only pursues Bold with his father out of a sense of obedience. Ranger later meets Charmer, while she is out hunting and they go hunting together. They soon start meeting each other regularly and they start to fall in love. When Charmer fails to show up at their meeting place one night, Ranger goes to look for her and finds her keeping guard for the other animals. Bold discovers them together and threatens Ranger, but Fox and Vixen soon arrive and allow Ranger to return to his family while they hear the story from Charmer. When Ranger discovers that Scarface is launching an attack, he goes to warn Charmer, but meets his father and tries to get him to call off the attack, but Scarface is not interested. When Scarface discovers that the animals have gone into hiding, he tells Ranger to follow their scent, but Ranger deliberately loses the scent and leads them the wrong way. Scarface soon discovers this and gives the job to another fox, and the group of foxes soon arrive at Badger's set. Ranger offers to check the set for them and plans to report it as empty, but Scarface realizes the animals are inside and surrounds the set. Ranger vows that, whatever happens, he will not take part in any fighting. After the attack Fox and Vixen realize that Ranger is not on Scarface's side and actively encourage his relationship with Charmer, so the two foxes hunt together every night and make plans to spend their future together.

In the beginning of the seaquel film of the movie, Ranger had a dream that he was in a mysterious purple dusk-like landscape with mist that may have entirely made of ice, and under it is the ocean and a raven in pursuit of him in his dream, causing him to running through the purple-icy landscape of the dream A huge crack begins to split through the surface of the ice, and Ranger slips and begins spinning around as a huge wall of ice rises from the crack in front of him. Ranger tries to stop, but is unable to, and begins to slide up the slope before he slides back down and looks up at the strange wall, causing to make Ranger speechless while the blue fox walks slowly in carefully towards the huge of the strangest, icy block of wall that made him very curiously speechless in his dreamland. Until with all the sudden, the spirit of Balto's mother who was the great powerful-white wolf, Anui's voice breaks into the dream of the purple cloudy sky of the dream-landscape with her spirit-voice. She tells Ranger of the same major characters of the animals that will help guide him, while the different villains of The City of Townsville from *The Powerpuff Girls* appear in the purple cloudy who were: Mojo Jojo: Accursed, Fuzzy Lumpkins: Ill-Conditioned, HIM: Infernal, the Gangreen Gang: Unprincipled, the Amoeba Boys: Spineles, the Broccoloids: Distasteful, White Kitty: Felonious, Roach Coach: Gross, The Boogie-Man: Dark, Sedusa: Naughty, Abracadaver: Grave, the Rowdyruff Boys: Miscreated, and Princess Morebucks: Spoiled all the every villains of Townsville who were the with the importance of them, until the last to appear is the carving wolf face from the Totem Pole, and the sound of Aniu the White Wolf howling is the last thing that Ranger hears before he wakes up from his dream.
