Active

Using her new powers, Chloé would reveal her identity to the public and afterwards, sabotage a train in order to make appear she was saving it. This ended up backfiring, and Ladybug and Chat Noir retrieved her Miraculous, much to her disappointment. Several days later, Ladybug would return the Bee Miraculous back to Chloé in order to help stop her father André, who had been akumatized. Since then, Chloé joined he French Miraculous Team, which consisted of Ladybug and Chat Noir, Césaire/Rena Rouge, Nino Lahiffe/Carapace, Luka Couffaine/Viperion, and Kagami Tsurugi/Ryuko. Like the rest of them, Chloé would only take part in difficult missions before returning her Miraculous to Ladybug when the task was complete. While Chloé enjoyed being a superhero, her ego, public life, and constant bragging led to Ladybug relying on her less and less until she decided that Chloé was no longer fit to wield it, citing how Hawk Moth could use her identity to hurt her family. This resulted in Chloé beginning to resent Ladybug and the other Miraculous holders, all because of her identity being known, and ego.

## Personality

### As Chloé

Chloé is a bossy, egotistical, and superficial girl who does everything in her power to crush and loves making her rivals' lives miserable, particularly Marinette Dupain-Cheng, who she is jealous of even calling Marinette by her surname. She thinks highly of herself and lowly of others believing that she deserves everything and takes pride in her luxurious lifestyle. This has also caused her to view herself as above any consequences of her actions.

She believes that she is the most important person in the world and everyone adores her, but the main reason why she acts this way is to impress her mother. If there is something that she wants, like attention or revenge, Chloé will do anything, including underhanded actions, to succeed. Such as stealing Marinette's belongings to humiliate her, impress both her childhood friend Adrien Agreste and his father Gabriel, or threaten others into doing her bidding by calling her father. Chloé rarely treats any of her peers respectfully, being bossy and overbearing to her best friend Sabrina and claims to her mother that she is just using the former. Her sour attitude comes across openly to whatever and whoever she despises, but will sometimes pretend to be innocent and emotionally distressed to manipulate others in front of her father.

While being callous and careless to anyone but herself, Chloé can be cowardly, easily scared of danger often caused by akumatized villains, despite this change throughout the series. Having helped caused some people to be akumatized, to her horror and confusion, she found herself their victim for revenge. Despite some of them calling her out for her nasty behavior, she disagreed with them, believing she was good. Chloé sometimes acts like a daddy's girl, as her father spoils her immensely, and she often calls on or threatens to call on him to enforce her will with her peers and even superiors.

Despite all of these traits, Chloé can be courageous as she is willingly helpful when asked by those she is close to or admires, particularly Ladybug, such when she asked for help in saving Adrien's life once. Like her mother, she has a fierce temper when angered. Chloé remains awful most of the time, but she shows a bit more kindness occasionally, expressing happiness when Ladybug is saving her or towards Sabrina. However she is only helpful if the situation furthers her own goals and selfishness.

Ultimately, Chloé's abrasive and selfish attitude stems from a massive inferiority complex, born from the neglect her mother Audrey Bourgeois showed to her as a child. With Peter Parker and Jaune Arc even questioned whether or not Chloé was the doppelgänger of Weiss Schnee, comparing it to the latter's father. As seen through their interactions, Audrey cares little for her daughter, even failing to remember her name on many occasions, and only gives attention to things that interest her. This caused Chloé to try and emulate her mother's unpleasant behavior in a vain attempt to win her affection.

### As Queen Bee

As Queen Bee, Chloé acts more like an antihero compared to her peers. She is proud of her abilities and wanted to prove herself to her mother that she caused a subway train accident to save it so the civilians will be grateful towards her. She didn't care about hiding her superhero identity in the process, revealing Pollen to the public, and transforming in the eyes of everyone in the area. She wants to be a famous, well-known, and well-liked hero just like Ladybug, going as far to informing the press of her saving the subway train so they could film her. When using the Be Miraculous a second time, Chloé became somewhat heroic, wanted to prove herself to her idol. Much like Chat Noir, Queen Bee has a bit of a habit of leaping before she looks, meaning she is hasty or quick to act.

When working with the French Miraculous Team, Queen Bee's acknowledges them as her teammates, unaware that they're her classmates and people she dislikes. However due to her revealing her powers to the public and ego, some such as Rena Rouge do display some animosity towards her. Regardless of this, Queen Bee works with them to the best of her ability, always having their backs when on missions.

However, just like her civilian life, Chloé's life as an antihero only fuels her own selfishness. According to Chloé herself, she feels useless without the Bee Miraculous, showing a lack of self-confidence behind her arrogance, feeling that nothing she does has any real value no matter what she tries. She believes that she is entitled to the Bee Miraculous, constantly boasting to her family and the public how Ladybug needs her. These actions resulted in latter decided to sideline Chloe for other Miraculous holders, out of fear of her putting her family in danger. According to Ladybug, Chloé doesn't understand the true power of the Miraculous, despite knowing how to use it well. She has grown possessive of her own powers, unwilling to let them go or share them with others. This resulted in Chloé slowly resent Ladybug, hoping one day she would ask for her help once more.
