 —Adrien to Marinette, "Queen Wasp"

**Adrien Agreste** is one of the two titular main protagonists (alongside Marinette Dupain-Cheng) of *Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir*. He is a student in Miss Bustier's class at Collège Françoise Dupont in Paris, France. He is also a fashion model for his father's brand. With the Cat Miraculous, when it is inhabited by Plagg, Adrien transforms into the black cat-themed superhero **Cat Noir** ("**Chat Noir**" in the French version), gaining the power of destruction to stop Hawk Moth and his akumatized villains. He is the second-in-command of the French Miraculous superhero team.

In "Syren", Master Wang Fu translates the Grimoire in order to find a way to give Ladybug and Cat Noir the ability to transform into different powered up forms, he is able to make the potion that grants the **aqua form.** Adrien is able to use it to become **Aqua Noir**, which gives him a specially modified aqua suit with fins on his feet, granting him the enhanced swimming capabilities, as well as allowing him to breathe and speak underwater.

In "Frozer" when the titular akumatized supervillain freezes over Paris to turn the city into his domain, Adrien uses Master Fu's Magic camembert to transform into **Ice Cat**, which gives him a specially modified ice suit with skates on his feet, granting him enhanced skating capabilities as well as allowing him to stand subzero temperatures.

In "Reflekdoll", Adrien temporarily obtained the Ladybug Miraculous, which, when inhabited by Tikki, would be able to transform him into a ladybug-themed superhero **Mister Bug**, gaining the power of creation.

In "Desperada", Adrien temporarily obtained the Snake Miraculous, which, when inhabited by Sass, would be able to transform him into a snake-themed superhero **Aspik**, gaining the ability to go back in time for a Second Chance. Later, he returned the Miraculous after failing for the 25,913th time to save Ladybug from a particular villain.

In "Cat Blanc", in an alternative future, Cat Noir, conflicted between his loyalty towards his father and the girl he loved, was akumatized by Hawk Moth into **Cat Blanc**, a white cat-themed supervillain with the power of infinite destruction. Later, due to Ladybug fixing her mistake, the alternative future was erased, including Cat Noir's akumatization.

In "Miracle Queen," after removing the Snake Miraculous from a brainwashed Viperion, Adrien unified the Snake Miraculous with the Cat Miraculous to become **Snake Noir** ("**Serpent Noir**" in the French version).

In "Miraculous World: New York - United Heroez", Mr. Ramier had been reakumatized into Mr. Pigeon for the 51st time, Cat Noir became **Astro Cat** to stop Mr. Pigeon from taking over the moon for him and his pigeons. Astrocat has the power to travel long distances swiftly via flight, including in space.

In "Ephemeral", after finding out the truth about his parents, Adrien, affected by an akuma, gave the Cat Miraculous to Shadow Moth/Shadow Noir and was akumatized into **Ephemeral**, a supervillain who made time faster or sped up the time it took for a Miraculous holder to detransform. Later, after Sass used Second Chance, Ephemeral was erased from the reality.

In "Kuro Neko", after giving up on being Cat Noir due to feeling unappreciated by Ladybug, Adrien was convinced by Plagg to create a brand new identity as a holder of the Cat Miraculous, becoming **Cat Walker** ("**Patte De Velours**" in the French version), even donning a brand new suit. He later returned to his original hero persona.

In "Evolution", after future Bunnyx was paralyzed during a fight against Monarch, Cat Noir took her Rabbit Miraculous and combined it with the Cat Miraculous to become **Rabbit Noir** so he and Ladybug could keep on fighting the supervillain and prevent him from changing the past or discovering their true identities.

In "Miraculous Paris", he was kamikotized by Betterfly into **Celesticat**, an angelic-cat-themed superhero to help Ladybug and Betterfly escape from Shadybug and Claw Noir.

In "Passion", to avoid Safari's venom bolts, Adrien temporarily used the Ladybug Miraculous and once again becomes **Mister Bug**.

In "Revolution", after seeing all the Parisians willingly stand up and fight injustice with their own hands and refuse to turn their backs on Ladybug and Cat Noir, Adrien evolves his powers, and now, he doesn't detransform after using his powers, and is able to cast as many Cataclysms as he pleases without the need to recharge. Then, he was sent to London by his father, and yet, shared a kiss with Marinette before leaving.

In "Representation", after being sent to London, Adrien returns to Paris as Astrocat hoping to find Marinette so he could tell her his identity and stay together but after being struck with Nightormentor's dust and the fear of putting her in danger, he backs off the idea and returns to London.

In "Conformation", when Monarch commenced his global plan against the French Duo, due to him knowing he wasn't in the right state of mind to wield the power of Destruction safely and the fears of his nightmares, Adrien sent Plagg back to Paris with the ring to help Ladybug.

In "Re-creation", after Monarch's defeat and wish, Adrien reclaims his Miraculous and rejoins Ladybug and their whole team in Paris.

His mask is black, similar to Cat Noir's, but it has a horizontal golden stripe across the top with a dip in the middle where the edge of the mask dips. His costume is dark gray and looks similar to an 18th century military uniform with six gold paw print shaped buttons, and another two on the backs of his shoulders, and gold lining.

There are sets of three black arrows pointing down on his torso and members and a pointy helmet on his head with the same color of the suit with a black coloration at the front outlined by a glowing pink line and black arrows at the sides. All the arrows of his body starts flickering when he starts accelerating one's time.

## Personality

Adrien is a dreamer and charismatic but is also often shy, a bit reserved, and considerably innocent and naive — particularly due to his unfamiliarity with much of the world beyond his father's reach. According to Nino, because of this, he resembled a baby bird afraid to come out of his shell. Due to his kind heart, Adrien always tries to see the best in others, willing to give second chances to others that have mean or cruel intentions, like Lila and Chloé, believing that through patience and time, anyone can change. His patience does have limits though, and he ended his friendship with Chloé after she refused to apologize for her actions in "Queen Banana". Despite that, he can be oblivious at times to the darkness or mischief that is in the hearts of others, like his father or his cousin Félix.

Even though he is not very openly emotional to most people, he is friendly, empathetic, understanding, supportive, and encouraging to others in hard times and will defend his friends against those who would do them harm. His will for exposure, change and making friends definitely complements his personality, although it is a bit of a struggle for Adrien due to his busy schedule.

Adrien's shyer and gentler characteristics can be observed in awkward, uncomfortable situations or scenarios with particular people. This was shown when he nervously asked Marinette to sign his copy of Jagged Stone's new album, shyly greeted Ladybug in "Simon Says", posed with Marinette as their alter-egos in Clara Nightingale's music video, was shy about going on a date with Kagami alone in "Frozer", and tried to make Marinette more comfortable around him, but froze up and instead played a joke during "The Puppeteer 2".

While liking to have fun, Adrien is more serious, obedient, somewhat insecure, and less lively due to his strict upbringing. He is sensitive and perceptive; he was the only one who thought it was rude to party when Chloe told everyone she was 'leaving Paris'. He gets his feelings hurt and cries easily-- mention of his mother is enough to make his eyes tear up-- however he is used to disappointment and is able to manage these feelings to avoid attracting akumas. When in public, he usually tries to downplay his feelings on it, like his relationship with his father. He has an easier time letting his feelings show to those whom he is close to. However, Adrien will act on impulse if emotional enough, like lying to Théo Barbot out of jealousy about his relationship with Ladybug and sneaking out into the night while unhappy on Christmas, missing his mother. He feels that his father is overprotective, causing him to occasionally act rebelliously, like going places with his friends or alone without informing his family and taking things that don't belong to him, though the former case was caused by his father's over-protection.

His desire to be loved makes him vulnerable whenever disappointed by those he cares for, as seen when Ladybug didn't show up for their date in "Glaciator". Family-related issues also strike him emotionally, even in the simple situation when his father doesn't show up to spend dinner with him. Or when Mayura's deception leads him into trouble, meaning that he follows his heart at the most inconvenient times.

Adrien usually thinks reasonably and will express distress and frustration when someone is difficult or something is going wrong, especially in Plagg's case. However, according to Gabriel, Adrien is very similar to his mother, describing them as "dramatic" and "headstrong when it comes to other people's safety". He can be rather reckless with or without the mask, insisting on fighting Riposte with a sprained ankle in order to protect his crime-fighting partner. Then, seen again to a more dangerous extent when his ribs were broken as a result of his Cataclysm being used against him. On the verge of dying, he insisted on continuing to fight, showing his will and determination to help even if restrained. On certain occasions, Adrien (as Cat Noir) can be hasty sometimes, evidently when rushing to face certain akumatized villains without a plan. Due to this rashness, he often needs to be restrained or stopped by Ladybug or Master Fu.

At times, Adrien can be persistent and curious about his Miraculous powers or when wanting to figure something out, as seen when he continuously bribed Plagg with cheese until he spilled the truth about what Ladybug was hiding. This trait is highly apparent in his romantic pursuit of her, to the point where both Marinette (referring to Cat Noir) and Kagami believe that he is stubborn. However, like Alya Césaire, he places extreme values on the mutual trust he has with Ladybug, respecting her decision to keep her identity secret and eventually her secrets with the guardian and when Ladybug became one. To where he held a great fear of losing it and disappointing Ladybug to where he tried to hide the truth from her, evident in "Miraculous New York". According to Ladybug, Cat Noir does annoy her a lot, but he has never lied to her. Per her wishes, he is secretive to others about his personal life, such as his love towards her, partially telling his true feelings to her aforementioned friends.

Adrien is also unaware that his mother is still alive but in a comatose state due to the Peacock Miraculous. He believes that his mother is dead, which is why he told his father it was fine with him if his father wanted to pursue a romantic relationship with Nathalie. Showing that has more fortitude than his father as Adrien despite being in the dark accepted her passing and it didn't lead him down a dark path like his father.

Similar to Chloe, it's also understandable as to why Adrien hates secrets because of his father and possibly mother as he had to live his whole life as one big secret as he was home schooled meaning he was unable to interact with anyone else beside Chloe. Extending to the point to where no one else knew the real him, only the image his father made up of him and as a model. Not only that because of his parents mistake he felt excluded from them as well even mentioning himself that he took up modeling just to get close to his father. When he dons the mask of Cat Noir Adrien is free to express his inner self, but is bound by his secret identity and ends up becoming a liar himself as seen in "Lies". However his understanding is bit more refined than Chloe; as he accepts the secrets of his father and Ladybug and trusts that they have good intentions.

Because of his father planning every detail of his life Adrien was unsure of what to do about the future. More so about who he truly is at first he started to accept Cat Noir as his true self but as time went on he wasn't sure. In "Kuro Neko", Adrien believed if he reinvented himself as Cat Walker things would change. But seeing how much Ladybug cared for his old alterego and after the sentimonster's defeat from Plagg he started to accept that he is both Adrien and Cat Noir.

As Cat Noir, Adrien has the freedom to act however he desires outside of his normal life, letting his wilder side come out. More optimistic and open, he says whatever comes to his mind and has a habit of cracking cat-related jokes and puns. As he said in "Plagg", being Cat Noir is the only time Adrien can be himself. Much of his exaggerated personality, especially his flirtatious behavior with Ladybug, stems from entertainment such as anime, television, and movies due to his lack of experience with people his age beyond Chloé. According to Plagg, Adrien often takes after him and is one of his most irresponsible owners in 5000 years, though the latter might have exaggerated since he also considered him the best "Cat Noir". It is rare for Cat Noir to reveal his vulnerable side, but it does come through at times. Examples of this are when he quietly comments that not all parents are loving, tries in vain to tell Ladybug about his love for her before their transformations wore off, and opens up to Marinette about his struggles in the love department.

Since he became Cat Noir, like Marinette, Adrien has grown in confidence and developed characteristically. This is seen when he lashed out at his father and courageously asked Nathalie if he could bring his friends with him to the wax museum. In his attempts to get Ladybug's attention, as well as interacting with certain other people, he acts cocky and brags, liking to boast about himself in a comedic way. In "Cat Noir as seen by Marinette", he was described by Ladybug in the same way. His perspective of people slowly begins to change at first through his fights as Cat Noir; Adrien naively believed that people are only dangerous when akumatized, but in "Oni-Chan" through Lila, he learned that people could become dangerous even without superpowers. Horrified that her hatred of Ladybug is so deep, she was willing to leave the heroine and, by extension, everyone else in great danger just to have her revenge.

However, Cat Noir occasionally shows insecurity when comparing his abilities to Ladybug or their new partners. He displayed his biggest sense of insecurity when he failed to save those he cares about, leading to the fear of losing them seen in "Desperada", when his romantic feelings towards Ladybug caused him to take the snake miraculous despite knowing she also needed him as Cat Noir. As Aspik, he tried for months before coming to the realization that he wasn't the right choice. These traits also often spark his instincts to protect Ladybug before himself, sacrificing himself numerous times always with a confidence she'll find a way when he can't. In "Furious Fu", realizing that if Ladybug had given up the Miracle Box and her memories she'd forget about him. Finding the memories they share so precious, refusing to lose her and the duty they share too important to pass onto someone else Cat Noir bravely defied Su-Han. To where he impulsively attacked Scarabella with his Cataclysm fearing that something happened to Ladybug in "Hack-San". During the "New York special", he grew aware of the destructive capabilities of the Black Cat Miraculous as he accidentally struck Uncanny Valley, knowing that if she weren't an android the outcome would've been different, in contrast to how he nearly cataclysmed Stoneheart in Origins. Because of this for a time Adrien felt unworthy of his powers and renounced them showing his growing discipline, restraint and caring side.

Despite all these traits, Adrien's change to his superhero status doesn't diminish his kindness and concern for others, among his other personality traits, such as his reasonable character and reckless behavior. He usually tries to persuade the supervillains to calm down and stop their rampage before fighting them when able to do so. While more prone to goofing off, Cat Noir gets serious when it is a lethal situation. He understands that it takes more than just superpowers to be a hero or useful, using his wits to help Ladybug out of a tight spot even without them. Even understanding that it's a hero's duty to rescue everyone especially those that cause trouble holding onto hope by setting an example for them that it will help others change seen in "Félix". Underneath his hero exterior, Cat Noir never forgets that he and Ladybug are still human with their own problems. He also knows how to cheer up his partner during their hardest times and encourages her to try to fight again. Deeply loyal and determined to help others and save the day, he really cherishes being uninhibited by his civilian life as a superhero. Due to his lifestyle and yet unlike his father he isn't tempted by power because he understands depending on how a person uses it won't get them what they need the most.

Cat Noir is welcoming and friendly when it comes to accepting new additions to the team, having open arms for Lila in "Volpina" and Rena Rouge in "Sapotis". He is also open to accepting help from others like Alix and Nathaniel during battles, as shown during the time he was reversed from "puss to wuss", becoming a complete coward, contrasting to his brave and confident nature. Like Ladybug, he is good at providing advice to others when they need it.  As Cat Noir, Adrien has the people's loyalty, respect, trust, and help when he needs it.

Through spending time with his other allies, Cat Noir, like Ladybug, also values their support and help. Thanks to his time as his alter ego and daringly wanting to see the outside world, Adrien got to experience something his father may have forgotten: The love of others. Starting to feel that Ladybug and others are like his second family. As well as valuing the support, companionship, and help of his friends. Due to Shadow Moth's power and desire ever growing like Ladybug, Cat Noir is thankful for the help of their old and new allies but due to them constantly showing up he felt left out and started to believe that there will be a day when Ladybug won't need him. This suggests he has little sense of his own worth due to his homelife.

By "Kuro Neko", his feelings of being left out by Ladybug and the others then makes him so depressed that Adrien didn't bother going on missions, temporarily giving up his ring and even would not do anything else. But seeing how Ladybug felt about his old hero alter ego he showed remorse for his earlier behavior understanding that he was just as valuable as the other team members.

While Ladybug was away in "Hack-San", Cat Noir takes over as leader of the team taking after the heroine's cautiousness and seriousness acting like a stern older brother and mentor as he did with Scarabella. After Ladybug was struck by Psycomedian becoming very angry he took after her calm and coolness aware in her state that she was reckless and kept her close.

As Mister Bug, Adrien retains most of his personality as Cat Noir, like his hastiness and his confidence in his abilities. However, according to Lady Noire, he has lost some of his sense of humor, getting a taste of Ladybug's careful side and creative thinking.

As Aspik, Adrien retains more of his personality as a civilian rather than as Cat Noir. However, despite being still trustworthy and faithful, he was unfocused as his crush on Ladybug prevented him from doing a good job with fighting Desperada. Desperate to impress her as Adrien, he disregards the villain's movements and keeps using his power to go back in time to try to prevent Ladybug from being captured. Eventually, he comes to the conclusion he cannot be of any help to her as Aspik and returns the Snake Miraculous to Ladybug, understanding that what he was doing brought more harm than good.

As Snake Noir and remembering his time as Aspik, Adrien greatly improved using the power of Second Chance, as he shook off his desire to impress Ladybug. Following Viperion's example, he turned it into calmness, focus, and determination to save his friends.

As Cat Walker, Adrien acts as he normally does in his civilian form, being respectful, gallant and soft-spoken at the same time. Unlike Cat Noir, he does not fool around and focuses on the job that needs to be done. Despite a new superhero identity,
he still loves Ladybug, showing it with more subtly. All that reflects the image of perfection his father wants him to be. In fact, Cat Walker acts so much like his civilian self that even Ladybug can't even act like herself, similar to how when she is around Adrien, even interfering with her ability to use her Lucky Charm. Through this new persona he learned not to take exclusions so hard as Ladybug told him he is irreplaceable.

As Cat Blanc, he retains most of his personality as Cat Noir, but in more of a twisted manner. He used his flirtatious behaviour as a facade to get close to his opponents so he can attack them. His love for Ladybug had become more obsessive and, while still showing to care for her, he still tries to get her Miraculous, even if that means destroying her. His temper becomes even more intense as he tried to destroy the whole galaxy, if not more, in anger for Ladybug not giving him her Miraculous. He also started to resemble his father in the sense that he let his emotions get the better of him. During the alternative timeline showed episode Ephemeral, after Adrien revealed his secret identity to Ladybug, his Cat Noir and Adrien traits merge, with him showing traits of one when he is the other, as he no longer needed to hide who he really is from her.

As Ephemeral, he is shown to be very lethargic, as he is forced by his father, the one who akumatized him, to betray the girl he loves to get her Miraculous. Just like his power is to accelerate time, he wishes nothing but that time passes quickly, not only because he wants his mother to return, but also because he wants Marinette's suffering to end. Despite being completely submissive to his father, Ephemeral is shown to still care for Marinette, as he is shown to react to her, when she calls for him as Shadow Noir takes her Miraculous.

## Abilities

### As a civilian

Studious and formerly home-schooled, Adrien is the top student in his class, with his lowest grade being an A- in Math. He is especially good at physics. Having many extra lessons, Adrien can speak fluent Chinese and Japanese and can even understand Morse code. He is also very skilled at playing the piano and enjoys sharing musical joy with others.

Adrien is able to fight on equal grounds with his fencing teacher and fend off most of his students effortlessly, with the exception of Kagami, showing great reflexes and skill for offensive or defensive movements. Other than fencing, Adrien does *Karate* and *Kung Fu*, which enables him to fight in hand-to-hand combat and briefly fight his akuma-controlled bodyguard. Furthermore, Adrien takes basketball lessons. He took an interest in video games as well, being able to beat Max Kanté in Ultimate Mecha Strike III and achieve one of the top scores in the entire school (despite being surpassed by Marinette later). It is shown in "Mr. Pigeon" that he can whistle.

Like Marinette, to a possibly lesser extent, Adrien has great stamina and endurance as he was able to outrun a fan mob and was able to handle both the physical and mental strain of wielding two Miraculous together without struggle .

Though often looked down on compared to Ladybug and being more simple, straightforward-minded, Adrien is very intelligent and capable. He is able to look for loopholes in his father's rules, which his friends considered "sneaky". Though restless and reckless, Cat Noir is observant, noticing where the akumas are hidden several times and finding ways to save his Miraculous even when captured. He tricked Ladybug (and indirectly the suspicious Hawk Moth) into believing he wasn't Adrien. He further demonstrated his wits in his use with the Snake Miraculous as Snake Noir. He also suspected that Marinette was Ladybug after discovering that her kwami was in school and considering her regular disappearances (although he was tricked by her in the end).

From his lessons with Master Fu, Adrien has received the same knowledge about the history of the kwamis and the Miraculouses as Marinette, though likely to a lesser extent, as he wasn't prepared to become a guardian.

### As Cat Noir

Cat Noir has enhanced physical skills such as superhuman speed, agility, and near-invulnerability. He is fast enough to outrun a pair of panthers, being capable of running at least between 35-50 mph. His increased strength allows him to do things such as being able to over shoulder throw his own bodyguard into an elevator, use his staff as a lever to knock over a city bus, roundhouse kick, punch and stomp vending machines and kitchen appliances with just one strike. His increased stamina, durability, and endurance allow him to survive being smashed into a series of cars, a face-plant into a traffic pole, falling several stories, being flung by Gigantitan, and taking a crash landing through Andre's ice cream stand without being dazed or injured. He has even survived attacks from Ikari Gozen and Bakerix, both of whom are akumatized villains who are strong enough to lift and throw around entire city buses. He also has good hand-to-hand combat skills when needed. Even out of "Aqua Mode," Cat Noir is a good swimmer. He can even handle temperatures as severe as absolute 0.

Like a cat, Cat Noir has enhanced senses such as hearing, smell, night vision, and super stealth, which he sometimes uses to find opponents. Also, like a cat, Cat Noir can use his claws to climb up surfaces or use them to cut through things.

Cat Noir uses his staff efficiently, wielding it as a sword, throwing it with great precision, and having it be deflected back to him. He is able to spin it at high speeds to form a shield or take advantage of its duplication and length-changing features. To travel long distances, he uses his staff and its variety in length to vault over obstacles. In and out of "Aqua Mode", he can also use his staff as a breathing apparatus for those who can't breathe underwater.

His special power, Cataclysm, allows him to negatively affect and essentially destroy anything that he touches with his ring hand. While it is usually used for object destruction, it can be used for a variety of different effects, for example, causing a bus's controls to go haywire and creating a platform in a structure. However, like other superheroes, using Cataclysm drains his Miraculous power, causing him to revert back to Adrien five minutes afterward.

#### Aqua Form

When accessing his aqua powers, Cat Noir has the ability to breathe underwater and enhanced swimming capabilities.

#### Ice Form

When accessing his ice powers, Cat Noir has the ability to handle extremely low temperatures, as well as move freely and quickly on the ice.

#### Space Form

When accessing his space powers, Cat Noir has the ability to breathe in space, and with the help of his jet pack, the ability move freely and quickly while up in the air.

### As Mister Bug

He has the same abilities as Ladybug: enhanced skills like speed, agility, and strength, and near invulnerability to physical damage.

Like Ladybug, Mister Bug can wield his yo-yo remarkably well, like using it as a grappling hook, a rope to restrain others, a projectile, and a shield if he spins it fast enough. After an evil akuma is released from its corrupted object, he can open his yo-yo, throw it to grab it, and remove the energy-charged it with, releasing it as a normal butterfly.

Along with his special power, Lucky Charm creates an object that helps him to achieve his objective, and it often is to stop a villain. Though usually confused at first, his cleverness help enables him to perceive where the object can be used to help him achieve his goal. However, the Lucky Charm drains his power and causing him to revert back to Adrien shortly afterward, so he has to use it wisely. Once the villain is dealt with, Mister Bug can throw his Lucky Charm object into the air and use the Miraculous Mister Bug, which will make it revert back to energy and fix all of the damage done since the villain appeared.

### As Aspik

Like Viperion, Aspik has much more enhanced skills, such as speed, agility, and strength, and he is almost invulnerable to physical damage. Like a snake, he also has enhanced senses like hearing and smell as well as infrared vision.

His special power, Second Chance, allows him to reverse time and change the outcome of an event, in which the power activates by sliding his finger on his Miraculous.

### As Snake Noir

Snake Noir has the powers of both Cataclysm and Second Chance, which he uses to attack and read his opponents' movements in battle, respectively.

### As Cat Blanc

As Cat Blanc, he possesses the power of infinite destruction. He can use a super-enhanced version of the Cataclysm, known as the Mega Cataclysm. He can also release his destructive power at long range, as a blast, or as a ray. He is capable of unleashing destructive energy that could potentially destroy whole galaxies in a single strike, unlike Cat Noir, who can only destroy one thing at a time. He can use his power an infinite number of times without his transformation dropping or his power source exhausting.

### As Ephemeral

As Ephemeral, he has the power to accelerate time for another person. He does this by touching someone, causing an orb of lilac energy to get pulled out of them, and then absorbing it, which causes the arrows on his body to flicker as time starts to accelerate. When this power is used on a Miraculous holder, after they have used their superpower, their detransformation happens much sooner, in a matter of seconds.

## Trivia
