Powers:
 
Enhanced Abilities: Ratchet has enhanced strength, agility and endurance due to his Red Power ring.
Red Power Ring: The Red Power rings use red energy, supplied by a power battery, which in most cases takes the form of red light. The power ring can be used to fire blasts of rage energy. This power is unique as it takes the form of rage-energized blood. The power ring can project this blood from either the mouth or focused through the ring. This blood has the effect of bursting into flames of rage, these flames burn even in space and are so powerful as to burn through the energy auras of opponent ring wielders and corrupt their power rings, depleting them at an accelerated rate. The weapon's power is more an indication of the rage of the user, rather than his willpower.
Flight: By the manipulation of anti-gravitons and directed molecular movement, the Red Lantern ring allows the user to fly at incredible speeds.
 
Origins:
 
Ratchet comes from a race of aliens who refrain from any sort of physical contact. Their technological society has achieved longer life, eradicated disease and reduced crime to a philosophical level, because of this. However, Ratchet wished to meet real friends. He left his pod only to be stopped almost immediately by the Isolation Police. Ratchet was fired upon, arrested, and sentenced to 80 years of imprisonment. After two years his tendrils were amputated. He then went on a hunger strike but was force fed by robotic arms after 14 years. Finally after 40 years, Ratchet begins to hallucinate until it drove him mad with rage. A Red Lantern Power Ring found him, crashed through his prison wall, as a new tendril grew to take it.
