## Jubilation Lee

**Children:**

* Shogo Lee (adoptive son)

**Other Relatives:**

* Hope Lee (paternal aunt)
* Xarus (vampire sire)

**Jubilee** (*Jubilation Lee*) is the mutant daughter of two prosperous immigrants from Hong Kong. After her parents were tragically murdered, she was sent to an orphanage, but she quickly ran away and lived out of a Hollywood shopping mall. When the security guards grew frustrated with her light shows, they hired the M-Squad, a group of mutant hunters, to capture her. She was rescued by the X-Men and taken to the Xavier Institute.

## Powers and Abilities

### Powers

**Energy Plasmoids:** Jubilee possesses the mutant ability to generate what she calls "fireworks" (also known as "energy plasmoids" or "lumikinetic explosive light blasts"). These are essentially globules of energy that vary in power and intensity. The explosions generated from her energy plasmoids can result in anything from a multitude of colorful sparkles that are capable of temporarily blinding a person to a fairly powerful detonation that is capable of smashing tree trunks or metallic objects. Jubilee can also absorb the generated plasmoids back into her own body without suffering any harm. According to Emma Frost, Jubilee has the potential to detonate matter at a sub-atomic level.

**Psychic Shields:** Jubilee's mind possesses a natural defense against telepathic detection or attack. These psionic shields render her mind "slippery" and invisible to telepathic beings unless they know precisely what to mentally scan for.

#### Former Powers

**Vampirism:** After Jubilee lost her mutant powers due to the effects of M-Day, she was attacked by a suicide bomber and infected with a vampiric virus. When she was bitten by Xarus, she became a vampire until her powers were restored years later. Her vampiric powers included:

* **Mist Mimicry:** Jubilee could transform into mist.
* **Psychometry:** On at least one occasion, Jubilee viewed X-23's memories by drinking her blood.
* **Superhuman Strength**
* **Superhuman Speed**
* **Superhuman Hearing**
* **Night Vision**
* **Immortality**

### Abilities

* **Hand-to-Hand Combat:** She is a good hand-to-hand combatant, having been trained by Wolverine and with Generation X.
* **Leadership:** She appears to have the makings of a good leader.
* **Acrobatics:** Jubilee is skilled in gymnastics.

### Weaknesses

* **Dyscalculia:** Jubilee suffers from dyscalculia, a learning disability that causes severe difficulty in making arithmetical calculcations.

#### Former Weaknesses

* **Sunlight:** As a vampire, exposure to sunlight was lethal to Jubilee, as it is with most vampires. However, Beast designed several forms of UV light filters that allowed her to operate in indirect sunlight.
* **Wooden Stake:** Like other vampires, Jubilee could be killed by having a wooden stake plunged into her heart.
* **Decapitation:** Jubilee, as a vampire, also could have been killed by being decapitated.
* **Religious Symbols:** As a vampire, Jubilee could have been negatively affected by religious items and symbols, such as a Bible, holy water, or a crucifix.

## Equipment

### Former Equipment

**Wizard Technology:** After losing her superhuman powers, Jubilee had some derivatives of technology used by the technologically advanced villain known as the Wizard.

* **Superhuman Strength:** Jubilee possessed a variation of the Wizard's Wonder Gloves. The micro-circuits lining the gauntlets she wore were designed to use gravitational waves for the purpose of increasing her strength. While wearing the gloves, Jubilee possessed a degree of strength that was sufficient to lift a train locomotive.
* **Force Field Generation:** The gloves were capable of generating a powerful force field around her.
* **Flight:** She also possessed some of the Wizard's anti-gravitational technology built into her costume.
* **Phasing:** Jubilee's costume allowed her to enter a "ghost mode", which made her intangible.

**Lightbender Amulet:** During her time as a vampire, Jubilee owned an amulet that protected her from sunlight.
