Clare is a fictional character from the television series Power Rangers: Mystic Force. She is a human sorceress in training, is offbeat, clumsy and bumbling, yet never gives up. She is both niece and apprentice to Udonna, the sorceress. She once feared that she was far worse with magic than her mother Niella, but has recently discovered she was just as clumsy as Clare when she first started practicing magic.
Clare is portrayed by Antonia Prebble.

[edit] Fictional character history
Clare was originally just a comic relief character, with her poor spellcasting abilities serving as her gag. It was later revealed she was the heir to the role of the Gatekeeper, and that her mother had died using her powers to seal the Morlocks within the Underworld. As the Gatekeeper's daughter, Clare was the only one who could undo the seal. Udonna had promised to keep her from harm and to only give her the Gatekeeper powers when she was ready, but the machinations of Morticon forced Clare to inherit the powers early. Donning a mystical tiara that granted her the Gatekeeper powers, Clare proved herself to be highly courageous and powerful, taking on evil with determination and focus in her desire to rescue a captured Udonna. She weakened Necrolai and took away the Vampire Queen's new powers, but did not come out so well against Koragg. Beaten, she was used to unlock the gate to the Underworld and unleash Morticon's forces. With Nick's help, she was able to get free and used up the last of the tiara's powers to seal the gate once more.
Even with the Gatekeeper powers gone, she still is an important ally to the Rangers and continues to resiliently work on her magic. She was responsible for hatching the baby Fire Heart, which imprinted on her as its mother, and took care of it as an infant. Even after Fire Heart grew up and is now many times her size, Clare still cares for it.
Since Udonna lost her powers after using a powerful dark magic spell, Clare has recently become a much more competent sorceress, joining Udonna on her quest to find her husband, Leanbow. When the two reached the Lake of Lament, however, Hekatoid, one of the Ten Terrors, appeared. He knocked Clare unconscious and proceeded to kidnap Udonna.
In Light Source, she, Phineas, and Leelee, traveled to the Underworld to rescue Udonna. While they could do nothing to help her at first, Leelee produced the Snow Staff, stolen from her mother, and the trio used it to revive her. After this, Leelee, Phineas, and Clare returned to Rootcore with the newly reenergized White Ranger.
During the final battle in "Mystic Fate Pt. II", the Mystic Mother grants Clare the power of a Sorceress. After Udonna leaves Rootcore with Nick and Leanbow, she becomes the new Sorceress of Rootcore, turning the Xenotome to its final page in the last scene and successfully performing the vanishing spell that she was unable to accomplish in the first episode.
[edit] Powers
As the Gatekeeper, Clare also wields the power of the Moon, and control of the Gate of the Underworld, which Necrolai used against her in the first half of The Gatekeeper story-arc. In times of real trouble, she can transform herself into an Ancient Mystic Mode dubbed the Shining Moon Warrior, in which she was similar to the Ancient Titans. She also controls a powerful staff in "Gatekeeper" mode.
