Jubilee (X-Men: The Animated Series)

Jubilation Lee, better known as Jubilee is one of the main protagonists of X-Men: The Animated Series and it's sequel series, X-Men '97, as well as a guest character in Spider-Man: The Animated Series. She's the youngest member of the X-Men with the power to create pyrotechnic energy blasts from her hands.

==Appearance==
Jubilee is a young teenage girl of Chinese-American descent with short black hair. Jubilee is usually seen wearing a pink sweater tucked into a pair of short jeans. She also wears a yellow trenchcoat on top of that along with a pair of yellow gloves and blue boots. She normally carries around a pink set of sunglasses on top of her head as well as a pair of earrings. 
==Personality==
Like her comic counterpart, Jubilee is a spunky, upbeat, and cheerful person who has moments of being overconfident. When she first joined the X-Men, she was somewhat naive and too trusting, as shown when she unlocked Sabertooth's arm restraint after he promised her he wouldn't try to escape or hurt her if she did so. Despite her naiveness and occasional overconfident attitude, she's still a kind and well meaning person who's loyal to her friends and teammates and considers them her family, willing to do whatever is needed to help them out. 
==Biography==
===X-Men: The Animated Series===
Jubilee grew up in an orphanage, where of the other girls taught her how to pick locks, until she was adopted by two loving foster parents. However, after living with them for a whole year, they all discovered Jubilee was a mutant when she accidentally destroyed the family VCR with her powers, this caused her foster father to register her with an organization called the Mutant Control Agency, believing it to be for her good and get her help, despite her foster mother's protests about it. As she overheard her foster parents talking about her one night, Jubilee expressed sadness about what she is going through, then sneaks out and went the mall to play in the arcade. However, her powers cause her to accidentally destroy the arcade game she was playing, the manager of the arcade begins to suspect she is mutant and Jubilee runs out the arcade, where she bumps into the X-Men members Rogue and Storm. However, she was then attacked by a giant mutant hunting robot called a Sentinel, that followed her from home. Storm, Rogue, and another of member of the X-Men, Gambit protect her from the Sentinel until it was destroyed by the field leader of X-Men, Cyclops. Later, Jubilee was brought to the X-Mansion, where she was formally introduced the X-Men and their leader, Professor Charles Xavier, and told their mission to fight for the rights equality for mutants. After Jubilee went home to make sure her foster parents were okay, but she was captured by two more Sentinels and a member of the Mutant Control Agency, Henry Peter Gyrich. She then woke up in the Mutant Control Agency headquarters in Detroit to be interrogated Gyrich about the X-Men. However, the X-Men managed to track down where she was being kept and rescue her. After this, Jubilee choose to join the X-Men and live at the mansion for help on controlling her powers, as she said goodbye to her foster parents Jubilee promised them she will still come visit them, whenever she can.
===X-Men '97===
Jubilee helped rescue Roberto da Costa, and begins a relationship with him shortly after an encounter they have with Mojo.
Bastion, along with Mister Sinister and collaborators in the OZT, create human-Sentinel hybrids known as Prime Sentinels, which are unleashed across the world to capture mutants for processing and - unbeknownst to the general public - planned experimentation, then likely execution. On a visit to Roberto's parents, he and Jubilee are located by the Prime Sentinels; Roberto's mother doesn't object, allowing her son to be taken away. Magneto unleashes a global EMP from the North Pole, which deactivates all unshielded electronic technology, including Prime Sentinels, so Jubilee and Roberto are able to escape to the X-Mansion.
Magneto brings Asteroid M to the X-Men, hoping to recruit them in his renewed war against humanity; most refuse, except for Rogue, who is suffering from grief from Gambit's death, and Roberto, who is resentful for his mother's abandonment. This ends Jubilee's romantic relationship with Roberto, who now goes by Sunspot.
The X-Men split into two teams, one to tackle Bastion's main Sentinel factory on the Galapagos Islands, the other heading to Asteroid M, aiming to either convince Magneto and his allies to cease their war, or at worst, defeat them. Jubilee, angry with heartbreak and disappointment, fights Sunspot, who tries to convince her to join Magneto, although Jubilee rejects his offer out of her loyalty to Xavier's pacifism.
When Magneto is briefly psychologically impaired by Professor X, and the upgraded Bastion invades Asteroid M, the divided mutants join forces to fight the common enemy. President Kelly, out of fear and pressure from advisers, orders the Magneto Protocol, which is a plan to launch ICBMs to Asteroid M; one of the missiles breaches the reactor core, which explodes, and seems to kill Bastion. Without the reactor, the Asteroid begins its plummet to Earth.
The mutants with useful powers work together to decrease the rate of decline, with Jubilee and Sunspot seeming to recover a positive - although not necessarily romantic - relationship, and are able to coordinate their powers well to slow the fall. After Professor X healed Magneto's mind, Magneto himself carries Asteroid M back up into orbit, therefore it became no longer an extinction level eventuality.
A mysterious explosion consumes Asteroid M, fading without any debris; the X-Men are sent to two separate times, with Cyclops and Jean Grey in the future of 3000AD, and the rest of the X-Men - including Jubilee - and Magneto being sent to 3000BC. The X-Men in the past are shocked to meet En Sabah Nurr - a purely organic version of the future mutant overlord Apocalypse.
== Powers and abilities ==
• Pyrotechnic Energy - Jubilee's mutant power is the ability to create multicolored explosive energy that looks like fireworks from her hands. 
However, since she's not as experienced with her powers as the other X-Men's are with theirs, Jubilee sometimes has trouble with controlling her powers. For instance, when she went to the arcade after overhearing her foster parents conversation about her, Jubilee unintentionally blew up the game she was playing.
