Jubilee

History

Early History

Jubilation "Jubilee" Lee was born and raised in Beverly Hills as the daughter of two prosperous Chinese immigrants, Dr. and Mrs. Lee. She attended an exclusive Beverly Hills school where she was believed to have the potential to participate in the Olympic Games. One weekend her parents lost their money in the stock market. That same weekend two hit men mistook Dr. and Mrs. Lee for their neighbors, also named the Lees, and killed them.

Jubilee was sent to an orphanage, but she ran away and hid in a Hollywood shopping mall, stealing food to survive. She first discovered her mutant power to generate blinding and explosive energy "fireworks" while running away from mall security. The stress of running away from the security guards caused Jubilee to emit a large light energy blast while in a back alley. This completely disoriented the men and allowed the frightened young girl to escape. Upon learning about her mutant ability to create fireworks, she realized she could earn money by using her powers to entertain customers in the mall.

Frustrated with the young girl's rebellious nature and powerful light-shows, the mall security hired mutant hunters known as the M-Squad to capture her. Jubilee held her own by blasting the M-Squad's energy tractor beams, but she was eventually caught by them. She was rescued by X-Men members Dazzler, Psylocke, Rogue, and Storm, who happened to be shopping at the mall. Curious, she tracked them for a while and later followed them into a portal.

The X-men

She found herself in the X-Men's temporary base, deep in the Australian outback. She stayed in hiding until the X-Men had abandoned the base, and their enemies the Reavers had captured Wolverine. While living in the underground base, the mutant known as Gateway, who created the portal to the Hollywood mall, was the only being aware of Jubilee's existence. During her stay in the base she stole food and borrowed clothes from several of the X-Men to create a makeshift costume for herself. She was also attacked by a cybernetic dog, and was forced to use her powers in self defense by blowing up the beast. This was the first time Jubilee knew her powers could do real damage, although a later retcon had her first manifestation causing destruction on a similar scale.

While sneaking around the caverns in the outback base, Jubilee was startled to find Wolverine hung up on a cross and near death. Jubilation helped Wolverine get down from the cross, and nurtured him back to health. Afterward, she teamed with Wolverine on several of his missions throughout the world. During this time she held her own against the Hand and blew up a section of the Mandarin's castle with her powers when she, Wolverine, and Psylocke were the super-villain's prisoners.

Jubilee and Wolverine grew a close father-daughter relationship with one another. Jubilee needed the guidance of a parent, while Wolverine needed the peace and joy of a child. Due to this relationship, Jubilee was referred to as Wolverine's unofficial sidekick. The duo teamed up to take down Sentinels, fight Omega Red, Sabretooth, Sauron, and even seek revenge on Reno and Molokai for the murder of her parents.

Wolverine brought Jubilee to Professor Xavier, who welcomed the girl with open arms. Jubilee found a home with the X-Men, and even joined the X-Men Blue Team. She aided her fellow mutants in battles against Mondo, The Shi'Ar Empire, and the Brood, among others. She grew close bonds with many of the team members, including Beast, Professor Xavier (whom she took roller-blading when he briefly had the use of his legs) and Illyana Rasputin. Jubilee mourned the loss of Illyana with the rest of the X-Men, especially Jean Grey.

Feeling that she needed a rest from the stresses at the mansion, Jubilee volunteered to join a new group of teenage mutants known as The New Students.

Powers and Abilities

Energy Plasmoids: Formerly, Jubilee possessed the mutant ability to generate and control articulate, quasi-animate energy plasmoids that took the shape of brightly colored streamers, sparklers and multi-colored energy globules that exploded at her mental comband. bright bursts of energy from her fingertips. These "fireworks", as she called them, obeyed her mental control, traveled where she directed them, arranging themselves in balls, streamers, and other shapes, and exploded when she wished. The strength of the energy ranged from a multitude of colorful sparkles capable of temporarily blinding a person to a powerful detonation capable of smashing objects and destroying property. However, they could be used to produce heat or concussive force. Jubilee could absorb the fireworks back into her own body without harm. According to Emma Frost, she had the potential to detonate matter at a sub-atomic level.

Psionic Shields: Jubilee's mind possessed a natural defence against telepathic detection or attack. These psionic shields rendered her mind "slippery" and invisible to telepathic beings unless they knew precisely what to mentally scan for.

Jubilee is also skilled in gymnastics and had qualified for the Olympic Games before her parents were murdered. She is also a good hand to hand combatant, having received some training from Wolverine. She also seems to have the makings of a good leader.
