Kamen Rider Chrono Warrior is the main protagonist & eponymous character of the American Kamen Rider Series Kamen Rider: Chrono Warrior.
Darren Carter[]
Personality[]
Darren Carter is a hypocritical & self-righteous young man who does not know much about his past. He has a strong desire to "catch the world" using his photos, but they never develop well. He sees this as a sign that he is not of this world, unaware of it being a prelude of it being supplanted by the worlds of the other seven Kamen Riders. However as Chrono Warrior, he is seen as an agent of destruction, usually being called "the devil", a rumor spread by Oliver, who believes Darren does not belong in any world.
It is also revealed that those who appear in his badly developed photographs die or foreshadow events. As Darren travels between dimensions, his clothing changes to suit the Rider's World, including some accouterments similar in color to his camera & Chrono Warrior. He also exhibits some prior knowledge or a talent necessary to his quest in the Rider's Worlds he enters. Some examples include his enrollment as a student in Phi's World. He has also mentioned before that he is capable of doing anything except for taking photos.
Before a climatic battle begins, Darren answers a major villain's demand for his identity by saying that he is "I'm just a Kamen Rider passing by. Remember that!"
Darren uses a "Chrono Pink" Blackbird, fly 135 Twin Lens Reflex Camera.

After finding Summer, Darren uses the Kamen Ride Cards to assume the forms of Beetleborg, Phi, & Echo Demon to deal with groups of Worm, Orphnoch, & Makamou. Confused by both his actions & the cards' powers' fading, Darren takes Summer & returns to their world as it is being destroyed by the various monsters.

He teaches the two brothers that they have to protect each other, no matter what, before heading off to the next world.

For most of the beginning of the crossover between Kamen Riders Double Detective & Chrono Warrior, Chrono Warrior assumes Kamen Rider Chrono Warrior Violent Emotion.

While this form appears similar to Chrono Warrior's normal form, it is drastically stronger, both possessing greater combat capability (enough to go toe-to-toe with Masked Rider Ultimate Form & destroy countless other riders) & able to use Attack Ride cards such as Clock Up without having to transform into the associated Rider first.

When possessing Darren (or anyone else) or by himself, Momotaros can assume Electric King's Sword Form, the first and most used form. When in Sword Form he uses the ElectricGasher as a standard sword-style weapon. This form is the most balanced among Electric King's forms, probably due to Momotaros' prominence among the other Imagin. He occasionally forms different finishers for defeating enemies, despite parts 2, 3, and 5 being similar to each other. He also uses a Special Version in I'm Born which resembles the aforementioned parts, the only difference is that Full Charge is used twice. There is also a Final Version used against the Death Imagin which uses energy from the other Taros, Sieg, and Kamen Rider Minos. In the Cho Electric King series Sword Form also has a triple Roundhouse Rider Kick that Momotaros dubs his "Super Finishing Attack." The ElectricKamen Mask resembles two halves of a peach, which is based on the story of Momotaro.
Equipment[]
Chronodriver[]
- Change announcement: KAMENRIDE
- Form Change announcement: FORMRIDE
- Attack announcement: ATTACKRIDE
- Rider Form change announcement: FINAL FORMRIDE
- Final attack announcement: FINAL ATTACKRIDE
- Decade Complete announcement: FINAL KAMENRIDE
Darren transforms into Chrono Warrior through the use of the Chronodriver belt that is based around the Rider Cards. By inserting a card into the Chronodriver, Chrono Warrior can invoke the cards' abilities. In Complete Form, the Chronodriver is moved to the right side of his belt where Chrono Warrior inserts his Final Attack Ride Cards & activates them by touching the Chronodriver's window.
Rider Booker[]
Chrono Warrior's primary weapon is the Ride Booker which has three modes: the default Book Mode, which is placed on the left side of his belt & holds the Rider Cards that Chrono Warrior uses in his arsenal, Gun Mode which can be used to execute the Dimension Blast finisher & Sword Mode which can be used to execute the Dimension Slash finisher.
When fighting Cow Demon, Chrono Warrior briefly fought as Dragon Knight with a red bullfighting cape adorning the blade of Sword Mode. In either Mode, Chrono Warrior primarily uses the Ride Booker in the place of the Kamen Riders' signature weapons, regardless if in the form of blades or firearms, unless it is weapons with a nature like that of the first or second Masked Riders of Mystica's or Vampire King's.
Rider Cards[]
- Main article: Rider Cards
K-Touch[]
The Final Kamen Terminal K-Touch is a special touchscreen cell phone. Originally from the World of Negatives in the possession of the Dark Riders, the K-Touch was designed to attach onto the Chronodriver replacing the card slot, which is moved to his right hip, allowing Chrono Warrior to transform into Complete Form. In this form, Chrono Warrior can still use his Ride Cards by inserting them in the card slot & touching its visor, allowing Chrono Warrior to summon the powers & weapons of the ultimate form of any of the previous Kamen Riders. When a Rider is summoned, the cards on Complete Form's chest & shoulders change to match the Rider's specific Kamen Ride card & the summoned Rider copies Chrono Warrior's motions. When activating the K-Touch's functions in Complete Form, any of the Seven Kamen Riders & Two Masked Riders present will be transformed into their most powerful form. K-Touch also seems to have a function to summon all previous Kamen Riders in their respective ultimate form without Chrono Warrior pressing the buttons of the K-Touch.

- Electric King Liner: Summons Kamen Rider Electric King Liner Form, armed with the ElectroKamen Sword. Using the Electric King Final AttackRide card allows Chrono Warrior to execute a Train Slash-style attack alongside Electric King Liner Form.

- Mystica I Ultimate: Summons Masked Rider Ultimate Form. Using the Mystica I Final AttackRide card allows Chrono Warrior to channel flames from his hand alongside Masked Rider Ultimate Form.
In the crossover episode between Kamen Rider Double Detective & Kamen Rider Chrono Warrior, Mystica I & Electric King's options are changed to Rising Ultimate & Super Climax respectively, including the card on Chrono Warrior Complete Form's chest armor.
Machine Chronoer[]

The Machine Chronoer is Chrono Warrior's personal Honda DN-01. Like Chrono Warrior himself, the Chronoer can assume the form of the respective Rider's Machines.The bike can also transforms into previous Rider Machines as it exhibits this ability when Chrono Warrior (as Phi) transforms the Chronoer into the Auto Vajin & Side Basshar (as Chrono Warrior's Violent Emotion).
