"What prophecy? What's a Dragonet of Destiny?"
— Jambu in The Hidden Kingdom.

Template:Infobox Character Prince Jambu is a male RainWing, and is one of two confirmed relatives to Queen Glory, the other being Ex-Queen Grandeur. He is confirmed to be Glory's half-brother. His scales are usually kept a bright magenta or raspberry pink, 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 appear on his scales in the shape of clouds. He is similar to all the other pre-Queen Glory generation of RainWings, and is a bit pathetic at almost everything except for tree gliding. He is the instructor on tree gliding for dragonets of the tribe and competed against Exquisite for Glory when she challenged Magnificent, to be the new queen of the RainWings.

Biography

Jambu, along with Liana, and a few other RainWings, 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 RainWing culture. 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 half-brother.

When Mangrove fled the Rain Kingdom through the NightWing portal to the Kingdom of Sand, In hopes of finding Orchid, Jambu accompanied Glory and the other dragonets on their search to find 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 when inside Jambu managed to spot Mangrove. They 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. Starflight described him as either, "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 was revealed 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 while he's watching over the unconscious Princess Icicle. He tells Glory the story of the RainWing that later turns out to be Chameleon.

Personality

Jambu's scales are usually bright 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". He can be quite unintelligent and very annoying towards others, but he is very cheery. He does seem to care about Glory, however.

Trivia

  • Jambu is the name of a fruit, and some people call guavas "jambus".
  • Jambu is one of the best with the sleeping dart guns that RainWings use.
