Jaune

Jaune
Species	Western Honey Bee (Apis mellifera)
Location(s)	Bee Kingdom Hive

Jaune is Vi's close sister. She is an artist who paints art for the Bee Queen in the Bee Kingdom.

Appearance

Jaune is a tall light-orange bee with a blue artist hat, brown eyes and a paintbrush that replaces the stinger. Her antennae are also curled in a spiral-like shape.

Personality

As one of the painters who makes art for the queen, Jaune is very hardworking and ambitious. She does not like to be disturbed by others when creating art.

Comparing to her sister, Jaune is more mature and rational. Upon her first meeting with Team Snakemouth, she is angry towards Vi (who insulted her art skills, telling her that she drew like a Weevil, in response to Jaune's constant belittlement of Vi's ambitions to become an explorer) and does not want to forgive her entire history of insults just because she and her teammates saved the Honey Factory. However, when Vi gets the Red Paint and actually apologizes for her rudeness in the past, Jaune begins to understand Vi, her own inconsiderateness and eventually makes up with her, and also paints a picture (titled A Bond Thicker than Honey) despite being busy with the Queen's. After that, she allows the team to rest at her art room for free.

Trivia

• Jaune appeared in the v1.0 demo. Her relationship with Vi was unknown, and she was the only painter of Bee Kingdom at that time. She teaches the team the secondary field abilities in that demo, although only Bee Fly is used.
• "Jaune" is French for "yellow". Similarly, her sister Vi's full name is "Violet," a shade of purple. Additionally, yellow and purple are complementary colors in the color wheel.
  • According to Genow in the manual of the limited run physical edition of Bug Fables, Jaune pronounces "Vi" like "Vye" instead of "Vee."
• Artia sees her as a rival and tries to outdo her artwork with her own pieces.
