Jambu
- "What prophecy? What's a Dragonet of Destiny?"
- — Jambu
Template:Infobox Character Jambu is a male RainWing, and is one of the only confirmed relatives of Glory, the other being Grandeur. He is believed to be Glory's half-brother, and his scales are usually kept magenta and pink, like the pinkish-red color of raspberries, implying that personality-wise he is very optimistic and cheerful. When he is disappointed or depressed, which is quite uncommon considering his cheerful nature, blue-gray will usually appear on his scales in clouds. He is similar to all the other RainWings, and is a bit pathetic at almost everything. He is also an instructor on tree gliding for dragonets of the tribe.
Biography
Jambu, along with Liana caught the Dragonets of Destiny entering the Rainforest Kingdom. He brought them back to the RainWing village, and spent time with Glory to educate her about the culture of the RainWings. During this time, they compared venom and discovered - much to Jambu's delight - that they were relatives, and it was likely that Jambu was Glory's older brother.
When Mangrove took off through the NightWing portal to the Kingdom of Sand, Jambu accompanied Glory and the other dragonets on their search to rescue him, which brought them to the borders of the Ice Kingdom and Blaze's Fortress. Glory and Jambu disguised themselves as IceWings to gain entrance, and managed to convince Blaze to come outside so the dragonets could meet her. Glory pretended to be an IceWing named Storm and Jambu pretended to be another named Penguin. On their way out the door, they saved two scavengers that were about to get eaten by Blaze and her followers.
Later, when Glory challenged the RainWing queens for the throne, Jambu competed in the tree top race against Queen Exquisite. He ended up losing when many of Exquisite's sloths tossed vines in his way and nearly choked him. Despite this, Glory won the contest overall.
Jambu became one of Glory's most reliable RainWings, after her coronation. He participated in Glory's mission to rescue the imprisoned RainWings in the Night Kingdom, and was one of the first dragons to go through the portal, which Starflight described as, "brave, or not knowing what he was getting himself into".
When Fierceteeth, Strongwings, and Preyhunter used the Obsidian Mirror to spy on Glory, she was shown instructing Jambu and Grandeur to count all the NightWings in the rainforest. Jambu was uneasy over this, and appeared to be terrible at counting, as he was only able to count to twenty. Later, Glory sent Jambu and Mangrove back to the Ice Kingdom to convince Blaze to attend the peace summit in Burn's stronghold. The mission failed, however, since Queen Glacier refused to allow Blaze to go.
He briefly appears smarting off to his half-sister, Queen Glory.
Personality
Jambu's scales are usually magenta or pink, meaning he is usually cheerful and optimistic. He dislikes the thought of no sunlight, and hugely enjoys calling his sister Glory, "Your Majesty". He finds having her as a sister "cool".
Trivia
- The name Jambu may come from the local name of the tropical Guava fruit.
