She is a studentformer student in Miss Bustier's class at Collège Françoise Dupont.

She is also a former resident of Paris, before she and her mother were sent on exile to New York City. She also served as the mayoress of Paris from the end of "*Mayor Problems*," all the way to the end of the next episode, where she would be akumatized for the last time.

She is a rival of Marinette Dupain-Cheng (and Ladybug). She is also the daughter of André and Audrey Bourgeois and the older half-sister of Zoé Lee.

In "Antibug", after Ladybug ignores her suggestions on how to beat Vanisher and calls her a liar, she is akumatized by Hawk Moth and becomes **Antibug**, a supervillain copy of Ladybug with an inverted color scheme and Anti-Charm as her superpower, which, unlike Lucky Charm, grants her real weapons.

In "Style Queen", after Ladybug loses the Bee Miraculous that she wanted to entrust Alya Césaire with, Chloé finds it. When the Miraculous was inhabited by Pollen, she became **Queen Bee**, a bee-themed antihero who helped Ladybug and Cat Noir "during particularly difficult missions" in Seasons 2 and 3.

In "Queen Wasp," after a failed attempt at trying to impress her mother, Queen Bee gets akumatized by Hawk Moth and becomes **Queen Wasp**, a wasp-themed supervillain.

In "Miraculer", after being manipulated by Lila Rossi and believing that Ladybug isn't gonna come to recruit her as Queen Bee anymore, she is nearly akumatized by Hawk Moth. However, the akumatization fails as Chloé rejects it. After the titular villain is de-akumatized, Ladybug tells Chloé that she'll no longer call upon her to be Queen Bee due to the risk her identity being public knowledge places upon both her and her family.

In "Heart Hunter", after being passed over too many times by Ladybug and being manipulated by Hawk Moth, Queen Bee joins the villains' side and gets akumatized into **Miracle Queen**, a supervillain who can brainwash Miraculous holders by stinging them with wasps, where she's set in motion for Hawk Moth's "elaborate mortal plan".

In "Miracle Queen", after being de-akumatized by Ladybug and losing both her army of superheroes, the Miracle Box, and the Bee Miraculous, Chloé becomes bitter towards Ladybug and claims she will no longer be her fan and friend, being terminated from being Queen Bee for good.

In "Queen Banana", after being removed from the movie Kreatika and having her half-sister be the main character, and after she ends her friendship with Adrien Agreste, Chloé is akumatized and amokized by Shadow Moth into **Queen Banana**, a banana-themed supervillain and her anger, pride, sadness, and frustration form Banana Boom-Boom, a banana-themed gorilla sentimonster. Ladybug also tries to give her a Magical Charm that prevents her from being akumatized again, but she initially rejects it. However, later on she accepts the Magical Charm after Zoé tells her that it's a gift from their mother.

In "Penalteam", after getting fed up by the class playing soccer, Chloé's Magical Charm is destroyed by Shadow Moth and she voluntarily gets akumatized into **Penalty**, a soccer-themed supervillain multiplied into ten clones capable of trapping people in force fields. With her clones, she forms the supervillain team, **Penalteam**.

In "Deflagration", after being confronted and subsequently humiliated by Zoé in front of the whole school in the cafeteria, Chloé is willingly akumatized into **Sole Destroyer**, a villain identity resembling her own half sister's akumatized form, Sole Crusher, transforming anyone she stomps on into singing heeled shoes.

In "Confrontation", Chloé and Lila frame Marinette for forging their classmates' study option forms in order to get them to turn against her. Their plan backfires when she and Lila fall into a trap set up by Marinette and Sabrina and reveal their true plan in front of her entire class and the school faculty. Following this, while Lila is expelled from school, Chloé receives special attention from Miss Bustier as punishment.
In "Collusion", with the help of Cerise ("Lila"), through Gabriel's manipulation, and after her father resigns as mayor, Chloé takes over her father's position becoming the mayor of Paris, effectively banishing superheroes from Paris.

In "Revolution", Chloé allies herself with Monarch and gets akumatized into **Queen Mayor**, a political supervillain. Her police robots receive the superpowers of the Ox, Turtle, Rooster, Bee and Horse Miraculous, allowing her to enforce "Chloé's law" and imprison dissidents as she pleases. After being defeated, she loses her position as Mayor of Paris and is exiled to New York with her mother by her father as her second punishment.

At the start of the *Deniesse and the Stolen Harmony* season of the main series, Chloé redeems herself and becomes a major character of *Kimberly's Adventures* from that season onwards, as well as a real hero.

## Bio

### Appearance

**Chloé** is a slender teenage girl of medium height. She has brilliant cobalt blue eyes, pale pink lips, and light honey blonde hair. Her hair is parted in the middle while pulled back into a high ponytail held in place by a white hair tie. She is mostly seen wearing makeup; pale, light grayish cerulean eye-shadow, pale, light grayish brown lipstick, and a light scarlet blush. For accessories, she has a gold chain necklace, with a small gold disco ball, and white-rimmed sunglasses on her head. Chloé wears a sparkly brilliant yellow bolero that goes halfway down her forearms with a light blue button on the left side and two pockets over a white shirt with black stripes around the chest running down to the bottom of the waist. The rest of her outfit includes white jean capris with a golden belt that has pyramid-shaped bumps and white dress shoes adorned with white bows with black lining and soles.

As **Queen Bee**, she wears a yellow and black domino mask. She wears her hair back in a ponytail which is curled to resemble a bee's stinger at the ends, tied with a black hairband, with two black antennae-like ribbons sticking out from the hairband, and a streak of black hair curled into her ponytail. The Bee Miraculous comb is placed on the upper right side of her head next to the hairband. Queen Bee wears a yellow skin-tight jumpsuit made up of many tiny hexagonal patterns to resemble a honeycomb with a black collar(turtleneck), three black stripes on her torso, which includes a large black one covering her rib cage, and two on the upper thigh. The sleeves of her suit are also black, which end in gloves with yellow fingers. Her black boots go down the length of her lower legs, starting directly below the second stripe on her thigh, and ending with yellow high platform soles. She has her weapon, the spinning top, tied around her waist. The similarities between her and Ladybug's suit designs could be an allusion to her adoration of the latter.

As **Antibug**, she wears a costume similar to Ladybug's, but it has inverted colors. Her hair remains in a ponytail rather than pigtails.

As **Queen Wasp**, she looks similar to Queen Bee, but with inverted colors, very dark gray hair with a yellow hairband going through. She also has light cornflower blue sclerae, vivid fuchsia irises, strong rose colored lipstick, and dusty, yellow skin.

As **Miracle Queen**, she looks nearly identical to Queen Wasp, except she now has black hive-designed shoulder armor, a crown, and bracelets.

As **Queen Banana**, she has vivid crimson colored-eyes with light violet sclera, vivid yellow lipstick, two solid bananas as her front hair, a black mask with a yellow outline, a black and yellow full body-outfit, and a skirt consisting of five large bananas with a circular hole for her gun. She also has four mini bananas attached to a black circle on her chest and has light yellow skin.

As **Penalty**, she still keeps the same skin color and hair color/style as Chloé, but she also keeps the same color scheme of her former hero persona, Queen Bee. Her eyes are have same colors as her 4th akumatized form, Queen Banana, but they are light brilliant scarlet with light purple sclera, and they have soccer ball-like tattoos around them, with black spots and brilliant yellow lines. She wears a vivid yellow long sleeved shirt with gloves, a black soccer jersey with a yellow belt and short sleeves, vivid yellow long legged pants, black and yellow triangular wedge heeled high soccer shoes, and black fingerless gloves. Her glasses are yellow with black lenses. Her clones look exactly like her, but without the glasses.

As **Sole Destroyer**, she has the same appearance as her half-sister's akumatized form "Sole Crusher", but with pupil-less glowing very pale cyan eyes and glowing blue diamond glasses, along with small glowing blue diamonds on her jacket and one on each cheek.

As **Queen Mayor**, Chloé remains exactly the same, expect she wears a brilliant golden, glittery coat with a fur collar and fur cuffs, with the mayoral sash being worn over this. She also has a golden purse around her shoulder down to her hip.
### Personality

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 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. To the point where she believed in "Derision", what was the point of having power or status if you can't use it on those who don't. As well as similar to Monarch, Chloe too misunderstood the meaning of her powers learning from what she wanted instead of what she needed.

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, who until "Queen Wasp", had very little care for her.

If there is something that she wants, like attention or revenge, Chloé will do anything, including underhanded actions, to succeed. She steals Marinette's derby hat design to humiliate her, but impresses Adrien and Gabriel Agreste and threatens Mr. Damocles into punishing Alya 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, such as helping Ladybug defeat the villain in "Despair Bear" and asking her to help save Adrien from her akumatized mother. 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. She also listens to advice at rare moments, like following Ladybug's suggestion to reconcile with Sabrina. If requested for a purpose, particularly by Adrien so that she can still be friends with him, she knows how to act congenial around others, although she often comes off as forced and can't keep it up for long.

On rare occasions, Chloé can be remorseful towards her actions, seen when she apologizes to Miss Bustier about forgetting her birthday, ruining the present Marinette made for her and her temper, causing trouble for everyone. After being de-akumatized in "Queen Wasp", she sincerely apologizes to Ladybug and Cat Noir for selfishly using her superpowers and for what happened to Pollen because of her actions. In "Animaestro", when Chloé finds out that Marinette had a crush on Adrien, she decides not to tell him as she believed that Marinette doesn't deserve attention, showing that although her actions are sometimes good, they're only motivated by her selfishness.

Ultimately, Chloé's abrasive and selfish attitude stems from a massive inferiority complex, born from the neglect her mother showed her as a child. As seen through their interactions, Audrey cares little for her daughter up until the events of "Queen Wasp", 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. Additionally, she sometimes shows a lack of self-confidence behind her arrogance, feeling that nothing she does has any real value no matter what she tries, even referring to herself as "useless" to Ladybug in "Malediktator". Yet, once she received the Bee Miraculous, she finally began to feel that she had true worth and value. However, her desire to help others stems from her love for attention, and not from her willingness to do the right thing.

In "Stormy Weather 2", when she insulted Aurore and it led her to be akumatized, Chloé waited for Ladybug to give her the Bee Miraculous, implying that she might've deliberately hurt Aurore, so she'd use the miraculous after Aurore's akumatized.

As Queen Bee, she is proud of her abilities and wanted to prove herself to her mother by causing 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, so she called Nadja Chamack to film her saving the said subway train. After Marinette helps her repair her relationship with Audrey, by making them realize their similarities as mother and daughter, Chloé expresses a sense of pride in taking much delight in tormenting others same as her mother. However, after a talk with Ladybug, she tearfully reveals that she is aware that no one in her class likes her and feels useless. When given the Bee Miraculous by Ladybug, she heroically helps her defeat the titular villain and returns the Miraculous without hesitation. Afterward, she attempts to be a better person by cleaning up her lair instead of having her butler do it. She was happy that everyone at school threw her a party in honor of her saving Paris, but quickly takes it as an opportunity to boast about her wealth and new found popularity among the student body as her title as hero is acknowledged.

Similar to Cat Noir, Queen Bee has a bit of a habit of leaping before she looks, meaning she is hasty or quick to act. As she quickly apologized to her father instead of listening to Ladybug's plan first and when she was eager to fight against Scarlet Moth's akumatized army.

However, in "Heart Hunter", Chloé is shown to have grown resentful towards Ladybug after being passed up to help out so many times, believing that she was now entitled to the powers of the Bee miraculous, and deserved them regardless of the consequences, refusing to understand that the Bee miraculous power did not belong to her. According to Ladybug, while she isn't impressed by others in power, she has grown possessive of her own powers, unwilling to let them go or share them with others. When her parents are akumatized in this episode, she hopes that Ladybug would give her the Bee Miraculous so she could save them. Instead, she sees that Ladybug chose another heroine over her and grows very upset. Hawk Moth, who has managed to steal the Miracle Box by now, gives Chloé the Bee Miraculous and uses her anger to manipulate her into turning against Ladybug, all without akumatizing her. Chloé's allegiance to him ultimately stemmed from the realization that he was willing to ensure he could provide her whatever power she wanted rather than keep it from her in the same way Ladybug did.

In "Miracle Queen", regardless of her betrayal, Ladybug was willing to offer her another chance to refrain from allying with Hawk Moth and return all the Miraculous in her possession. However, by openly expressing her resentment towards Ladybug for not providing her the power of the Bee Miraculous, Chloé revealed that she refused to understand that the power of the Miraculous was not her right to use. After Ladybug de-akumatizes her, takes back the Miracle Box and the Bee Miraculous, and expels her from the French superhero team, Chloé bitterly renounces her loyalty and friendship with Ladybug, officially becoming her enemy.

In the two aforementioned episodes, it is shown via Chloé's behavior that, because of her attitude and possibly how she was raised, she didn't fully understand one of the main responsibilities of being a true hero is selflessness. By giving up her powers, she was unknowingly protecting everyone in her life from Paris' villains. Through her actions, just as Hawk Moth used his family's love to cover his guilt of akumatizing innocent civilians, Chloé did the same to cover up her desire for power and glory. Although Chloé was eager to do good as a superhero, she lacked commitment to continue her duties without her superpowers. Even though Chloé made efforts to make up for some of her mistakes before "Miracle Queen", she did not make an effort to maintain this change or attempted to make up for them, implying that she did not feel compelled to acknowledge her past mistakes, let alone admit that she needed to change her behavior and apologize to those she wronged and took advantage of so long as she still bared the title of a hero, leaving the impression that Chloé did not see the need for self-improvement so long as she continued to obtain what she wanted and to become Queen Bee at her own request rather than Ladybug's.

And yet, it seems the neglect she suffered because of her mother also had lasting effects: when Chloé was told she couldn't be a hero anymore, she was consumed by fear that Ladybug would neglect her (thinking she was worthless as mentioned in "Miraculer") as Audrey did. Sadly, she didn't have the maturity to separate the two instances and gave into her anger and Hawk Moth's false promises under the pretense that the heroine didn't care for her. Ultimately, Chloé fooled herself, because if it wasn't for Ladybug and Cat Noir constantly saving her from the messes that she caused by getting people akumatized, she wouldn't be present, and despite all that the pair went through with her, the heroes continued to show her real love and kindness as real parents should. Although she was so eager to become a superhero again, Ladybug's encouragement and Marinette's willingness to let go of their complicated past to show her kindness, did not convince her to abandon her ways, resulting in her succumbing to Hawk Moth's manipulations. In the end, regardless of the many chances others were willing to give her, Chloé's need to prioritize herself and not lose the privileges she had grown accustomed to, ultimately led her to lose everything (powers, superhero status, reputation, etc.) to the point of becoming enemies with her former idols.

Throughout the fourth season, Chloé is still sore over the events in "Miracle Queen", with her selfishness, pettiness and anger being amplified over losing her hero status and powers. As such, her subsequent mistreatment towards other grows stronger while her kindness diminishes towards everyone even more than in previous seasons: she treats Sabrina even more like a slave than ever, repeatedly and forcefully tries to send her half-sister, Zoé, back to New York after the latter befriends Marinette and her other classmates, ends her friendship with Adrien in "Queen Banana", and further hates Ladybug when she chose a new Bee Miraculous user, believing the jewel was hers alone. Her anger becomes so intense that Hawk Moth admits that it is limitless and Ladybug comments that she needs to control it. Despite this, she still accepted the anti-akuma charm when Zoé lied about it being from her mother, showing that she still cares for her mother, despite her increased aggression towards the citizens of Paris. In "Gabriel Agreste", she implicates that she still cares for Adrien to some degree, despite having their friendship end so spitefully, and has chosen to reconcile with him under her own terms. However, her attempts to reconcile are done selfishly as she tries to have him all to herself by attempting to expose her classmates' plan to bring him and Marinette together to Gabriel, and by extension, forcing Adrien's return to homeschooling which, in her mind, would allow him to seek her as the only source of social interaction again, with no outside interference, and return him to a state of being her prince charming, regardless of it being at the cost of Adrien's loneliness. In "Penalteam", Chloé continues her mean streak by refusing to participate in the class's exhibition soccer game, forbidding Sabrina to play even though she enjoys the sport and is skilled at it, and even voluntarily accepts Shadow Moth's akumatization to ruin it. After being tricked into de-akumatizing herself, she reluctantly allows Sabrina to play while dressing her down as a "loser" like the rest of her class, though their friendship doesn't end like with Adrien. Soon after, she voluntarily forms an alliance with Lila over their mutual hatreds of Marinette and Ladybug.

In the fifth season, with Monarch having stolen all the Miraculous, Chloé's bitterness towards Ladybug worsens, as she believes she and Cat Noir lost the Miraculous for being incompetent, and makes no effort in hiding it, even going as far as to express her thoughts on live TV and social media. She also expresses believing that none of this would have happened if she was still Queen Bee, revealing that despite the consequences of her action in previous seasons and despite her willingness to betray the heroes in favor of Hawk Moth, Chloé is willing to disregard her actions and genuinely believes she is still entitled to the power of the Bee Miraculous.

As the season continues, Chloé's anger, hatred, and desire for revenge grow, and as her status and power diminishes, so does her emotional state, with her becoming more demanding, selfish and unreasonable than ever to the point where even her father admits that she has become heartless, which likely stems from her jealously and fear of losing what little power she has left, from "Miracle Queen" to "Collusion". This especially continues with Lila as her ally as they push forward in their alliance in plots and schemes to stymie Ladybug in her hero duties or ruin Marinette's life. Chloé even goes as far as to permanently throw away the chance to reconcile her friendship with Adrien, and her friendship with Sabrina worsens as she continues to treat her like a slave but treats Lila like an equal. This culminates in Sabrina finally turning against her as she helps Marinette expose her and Lila's plan to destroy Marinette and ruin their classmates' futures, effectively stripping Chloé of the last true friendship she has left. Following this, Chloé goes far above and beyond to destroy her enemies with her remaining power, such as unjustly getting Marinette expelled for something she didn't do and Ms. Bustier fired for trying to talk sense into her. She eventually accepts an offer from Monarch to become an interim mayor of Paris after the villain engineers her father's resignation just to continue in her revenge and avoid the consequences of her actions.
In "Revolution", after labeling Ladybug, Cat Noir, and Monarch as fugitives and outlawing all superheroes and supervillains, Chloé, at Lila's urging, hypocritically makes a deal with the latter to be akumatized and given more powers from the Miraculouses, which she used to imprison people at will, particularly all who have ever stood up to and/or defied her, including her father; this shows just how mad she has gone with her power after losing respect for him in "Collusion". She also sets a trap to publicly expose Ladybug and Cat Noir's identities after forcing them to use their powers and confined them using robots supplied to her by Gabriel until their powers run out and they de-transform. However, the heroes are able to overcome the time limit and master their powers, and urge the citizens to revolt against Chloé's tyranny. In quick succession, Chloé is de-akumatized, ousted as mayor, abandoned by everyone, and finally forced to face the wrath of the entire population of Paris, who have now come to despise her for her rule. She is even finally disciplined by her father, who also forcibly exiles her and her mother to New York, while her mother harshly reprimands her for ruining their family name and reputation, and vows to come down harder on her; this leaves Chloé deeply upset that she has even lost her mother's love and respect. She briefly softens herself and considers calling Sabrina for consolation or to try and reconcile, but soon hardens again and decides to take one last shot at Marinette over Adrien's departure to London, demonstrating that, even at her lowest point, Chloé's instinct is to make someone else suffer to validate herself. This, however, backfires as Marinette turns the tables on Chloé, telling her point blank the cold hard truths that she no longer has any power over anyone or anything anymore, and that she is the "utterly ridiculous" one. Seeing her once-favorite punching bag stand up to and shut her down so harshly finally shatters Chloé's pride and spirit and she breaks down in tears after finally realizing that she has truly lost everything and hit rock-bottom.

Eventually, as seen in "*The Redemption of Chloé Bourgeois!*", it is revealed that Chloé saw the error in her ways and apologized for being selfish and rude, even admitting that Marinette was right about her being the "utterly ridiculous" one.

As Antibug, most of Chloé's personality remains the same, except that she is more vengeful towards Ladybug. She enjoys taunting her and Cat Noir about their teamwork, believing she is weak without him and Cat Noir is playing second fiddle.

As Queen Wasp, Chloé is prideful and arrogant towards Cat Noir and Ladybug, believing herself to be a more exceptional hero worthy of her mother's praise than both of them. She also wants to prove herself by taking away their Miraculouses and feels angry towards everyone who dislikes her and paralyzes them.

As Miracle Queen, most of Chloé's personality remains the same except that she gets meaner and more power-hungry, using her power to take control all over Paris and turn the Miraculous holders into her own army.

As Queen Banana, Chloé gets immensely vengeful towards her half-sister Zoé, searching to turn her into a banana and blaming everything on her, all while turning everyone that crosses her and her sentimonster's path. She also isn't afraid to show dishonesty, as she promised Zoé she wouldn't hurt anyone else if the latter gave herself up, but immediately turned a nearby bystander into a banana. Queen Banana is also very cunning and loves chaos as well. This is shown when she purposely lets Cat Noir use Cataclysm on her sentimonster causing it to go out of control and cause more chaos in Paris.

As Penalty, since she is akumatized voluntarily, Chloé's personality remains the same as she is still cruel, unfair, hypocritical, and demanding, who doesn't play fair by making her own rules, and yet, she doesn't like it when others cheat despite her doing the same. With her Penealteam, they work well and cheat together, however, they started arguing and insulting each other when the Miraculous superheroes used their superpowers and make them all angry. As the heroes use her anger against her, she becomes fed up with Shadow Moth's demands, realizing his power is incapable of allowing her to torment the heroes like she wanted. Believing she has lost the advantage in the game, regardless of how much she cheats, she willingly destroys her own akumatized object.

As Sole Destroyer, since she is akumatized voluntarily, Chloé's personality remains the same.

### Etymology

* The name **Chloé** means "blooming, fertility, green sprout/young green shoot" in Greek.
* Chloé's surname **Bourgeois** is a French term that is used to describe a member of the middle class within France.
	+ The fact that she looks down on people who aren't as popular or rich as her is a reference to this.

## Items

* **Bee Miraculous** (occasionally prior to "*Miracle Queen*," and then up to "*The Kwamis' Dangers*" after redemption)
* **Pokévice**
* **Digivice**
* **Dream Phone** (reverted to a regular phone after turning against Marinette; returns to Dream Phone during *Deniesse and the Stolen Harmony*)

## Skills

Having grown up in politics due to her father's position, Chloé knows how to cheat, manipulate, fool, and humiliate others for her own personal success. If she has a goal in mind, she will do whatever it takes to achieve it, even if it means sabotaging others and bringing them down. For example, she tells Sabrina to lock Juleka in the bathroom so that she can just stand next to Adrien in the class photo. She is very clever when she puts her mind to something, as displayed in Animaestro, where she comes up with a genius plan to humiliate Kagami.

Due to eight years of practice, Chloé is a very skilled dancer in ballet. She even manages to do acrobatics in the process.

As Queen Bee, she has enhanced physical capabilities, such as flexibility and agility. She is easily able to do a backflip from the floor to the top of the stage. However, she isn't strong enough to stop a subway train by herself, requiring both Cat Noir and Ladybug's help. Queen Bee is skilled in hand-to-hand combat.

Queen Bee can yank the pull string on her spinning top to send it onto the ground and letting it spin, which then allows her to travel with it by either riding it or letting the top pull her. She can reach her destination much quicker than other Miraculous holders, with the exception of Pegasus. She can also use her weapon to attack and protect.

Her superpower, Venom, allows her to use the top as a stinger, immobilizing her target for a set amount of time.

As Antibug, she has the same abilities as Ladybug, including enhanced strength and agility. She has her own yo-yo, which she prefers to mostly use offensively.

Antibug has her own special superpower to summon objects called "Anti-Charm." Unlike Lucky Charm, which gives Ladybug random, inherently normal objects, Anti-Charm gives Antibug a weapon, like a large and bulky sword. However, she shares the same time limit to her transformation after using her superpower, but it is unknown what happens once she detransforms.

As an akumatized Miraculous holder, Queen Wasp is considerably powerful. She is able to summon swarms of wasps and direct them. Like her original superpower Venom, she can use her wasps to sting her targets and immobilize them indefinitely. She can form her wasps into different shapes and forms such as arrows, rockets, binoculars, and telescopes. She can also ride on her wasps by letting them carry her. However, her wasps have a weakness and dislike for water, avoiding their target if they manage to go underwater.

As Miracle Queen, she possesses similar powers to her past form, Queen Wasp, being able to control a swarm of wasps. The sting of these wasps will brainwashes the victims. The stung victims will follow Miracle Queen's commands without hesitation; they will even obey if they are out of hearing range as her servants. Without receiving any commands from Miracle Queen, then the stung victims will remain motionless. Those who are stung gain a bright yellow with black outlines to their entire eyes. Like the wasps used by her previous Akumatized form, Queen Wasp, Miracle Queen's wasps also have a weakness and dislike of water.

As Queen Banana, she is armed with a banana gun that can shoot out bananas, causing any human it touches to turn into a banana. She also possesses a floating banana-themed car equipped with circular weapons, that can also shoot out bananas. She is given minimum control of her sentimonster, which has the same exact ability as her.

As Penalteam, Penalty is able to create a team of clones of herself, where they share the same powers. Each one can trap people in floating, soccer ball-shaped force fields, either by kicking them with their shoes or by throwing red cards at them. She can also control the soccer field she has created, being able to move the goals around the city or control the time of the game, either by making a time limit or make the game infinite.

As Sole Destroyer, she has the power to turn her enemies into singing shoes by touching them with her high heels and the people who were transformed repeatedly praise her, she even has enhanced strength as seen when she threw away the table that Marinette and Adrien were hiding behind.

As Queen Mayor, she looks exactly like her civilian self aside from her golden jacket to avoid suspicion of being akumatized. Her police robots have the power of Voyage, Resistance, Sublimation, Venom and Shell-ter. She can control the robots in any way she wants as they can immobilize whoever she wishes, teleport people to "detention", create shields that are immune to any kind of superpowers and can turn invisible and visible at her will.

## Trivia

* In the earlier concept art of Chloé, she doesn't have her hair in a ponytail. She wears a purple vest with a diamond pattern around the waist, a white long-sleeve shirt, and blue jeans.
	+ This is very similar to Sabrina Raincomprix's current outfit.
	+ Also, in one concept art, Chloé is watching a fashion show with Marinette Dupain-Cheng and Alya Césaire, suggesting that she may have been friends with them in an earlier concept.
	+ A later concept art design for Chloé included a white cardigan with a black edge, white shorts with black stripes, and high white boots with black edges and soles.
* Originally, Chloé and Sabrina Raincomprix were supposed to be in a trio with Alix Kubdel, which was a reference to the trio Sam, Clover and Alex in *Totally Spies!*

* On April 18, 2021, the Brazilian voice actors accidentally revealed that Chloé is Zoé's half-sister. Feri González confirmed that through her Miraculous Mexico Twitter account.
* According to Thomas Astruc on Twitter, Chloé was intially never planned to have a redemption arc and this was purely assumed by fans based on the reveal that she would use the Bee Miraculous. He added that she remains unchanged as her ‘purpose of the show is to warn about the people who willingly refuse [to change]’.
	+ Despite the improvements she displayed before the events of "Miracle Queen", Thomas states her character was being presented exactly as she was written; someone who refuses to change and can often pull others into a toxic relationship by having them focus on her potential good and overall suffering, rather than the ongoing cruelty she continued to display towards others.
	+ Although her past explains her act like her mother leaving her as a child, it doesn't excuse the choices she made, and despite the initial changes she made about herself to make up for some of her mistakes, Chloé never saw the need to fully change herself if she continued to obtain what she wanted.
	+ Despite the many chances others were willing to give her to change her ways, Chloé felt such change was not worth the effort if it came at the cost of her privileges.
	+ According to Feri González, colorist for ZAG inc and the ambassador for the show in Latin America, Chloé had never changed at all during the later parts of Season 2, and the entirety of Season 3. She only wanted to be Queen Bee, not only to help others, but to get recognition, her motivations to be a hero stemmed primarily from her own selfish reasons. The series had always presented Chloé's fate and unchanged personality, the viewers simply needed to observe her character for what it was rather than what they had envisioned it to be.
		- Despite the few moments of good Chloé has throughout the series, Chloé will revert back to her original personality either near the end of the episode or the following to show that she is still the same person. Despite what she experiences or expresses, those moments never made her want to change who she was and are quickly left in the past the moment she knows things are once again within her favor.
		- Feri states Chloé's downfall was marked in "Queen Wasp"; the moment she used the Bee Miraculous to endanger hundreds of lives on the train simply to make herself look good.
		- Feri states a miraculous is a privilege, it is not someone's right to use. Despite Ladybugs explanation, Chloé refused to understand that the power of the miraculous was not her right to use and had determined it was a privilege Ladybug had wrongfully taken from her.
		- Although Chloé was quick to resist Hawkmoths control in "Miraculer", her willingness to resist did not stem from her need to be good, but rather from her belief that Ladybug would still provide her the power of the bee miraculous, a power she now felt she was entitled to.
* The Bee signal that Chloé would shine in the sky whenever a villain came is a reference to Batman's Bat signal.
* Chloé's superhero name, Queen Bee, is a play on the bug "queen bee". A queen bee is normally tended to and protected by all other bees in a hive, correlating to Chloé's rich life style and expectations to be put before others within any social circle, regardless of a situation.
	+ Alternatively, "queen bee" could also be referring to a queen bee personality which is often described as having an overly heightened self esteem, which may lead to arrogance as well as being overly aggressive, selfish, manipulative and confident. Behaving as a bully or sociopath.
* Chloé is the first person to break their akumatized object themselves, seen when she broke her sunglasses in "Penalteam" when she was akumatized into Penalty.
	+ She's also the third villain who is okay with their akumatized object being destroyed, following Christmaster in "Christmaster" and Reflekta in "Guiltrip".
* Chloé currently holds the record for facing the highest number of Miraculous holders, with facing 15 Miraculous holders, which is all the holders on the Miraculous superhero team except for Rena Rouge and Bunnyx.

* Chronologically, she is Monarch's last akumatized victim, excluding Gabriel Agreste, who was Monarch and akumatized himself in the episode after Chloe's akumatization and briefly in "*It's Time to Unify!*" into Nightormentor, and the Miraculized, the group of villains formed by Monarch and Tomoe Tsurugi in the same episode and "*The Fall of the Monarch!*" However, it's possible that she was one of the Miraculized villains, as she owns an Alliance Ring.
* During the *Deniesse and the Stolen Harmony* season, Chloé was initially hesitant to become Queen Bee again at first, as she had been expelled from the French Superheroes team in the past, but since Gabriel Agreste's death, she can't side with him anymore. She didn't have much of a choice, as it was an emergency to save her former friends. Luckily, working together with Deniesse *does* allow her to learn true teamwork and allow true friendship into her heart, which is what allows her to sincerely and genuiely apologize to her half-sister and her friends.
	+ After the Bee Miraculous gets stolen, the MoF - seeing that she has redeemed herself - decides to do a Plan B: by allowing her to turn into Queen Bee at any time via her Dream Phone.
	+ During the first episode of the *Deniesse and the Stolen Harmony* series arc, Chloé finally realized everything she'd done and breaks into tears, apologizing to a DigiEgg and even calling herself "utterly ridiculous" for her behavior, she told it that she finally reallzed what she had lacked, a sense of kindness, teamwork and gratitude. As soon as she said all of it, her Digivice glowed in a light of good, as did her DigiEgg, causing it to hatch and Pupumon (the Baby form of FanBeemon) to be reborn.
