Jujubit: Red Bee

 My first profile JujuBit creation is the Red Bee.

If you don't know who the Red Bee is, well, where have you been?  He's a Golden Age hero who had a usual hook and a very brief floruit. This sculpt of him was generated from this image:

The Red Bee had no powers (other than being praeter-naturally athletic in the way Golden Age heroes always were).  His only competitive advantages are his vaguely empowering and unexplained "stinger gun" and his equally unexplained trained bee, Michael.

I mean, nobody wants to deal with bees.

I have put his sculpt on the "Jinny Hex" dial.

I mean, it's not like I'm going to play Jinny Hex.  Jonah Hex fan though I am, not even I think he needs a legacy in Young Justice.

Her "Quickdraw" trait means you are motivated to make sure she gets in the first strike any turn you use here.  And, face it, the element of surprise should be a necessity for someone as underpowered as the Red Bee.  Her special attack power grants "Blade/Claws/Fangs" allows her to roll one die to determine the damage she does on a successful attack; ordinarily, that only works for attacks on an adjacent opponent figure, but the special power allows you to do it even in a distance attack.  The possibility of doing up to SIX clicks of damage in any kind of attack? Terrifying, and not a bad representation of, well, whatever kind of damage the Red Bee's "Stinger Gun" does.  

The dial has "Running Shot", the grey Speed power that allows a figure to move up to have its Spped value then make a ranged attack.  It's especially valuable in combination with the "Stinger Gun" power and running around zapping people on the fly is very consistent with the Red Bee's vibe.  So too is pink "Sidestep" which lets him move two spaces for free.

The Red Bee was always on the go.

The pink attack power (Precision Strike) always lets him do at least one damage no matter what damage-reducing powers his opponent has.

I figure that's for Michael the Bee.

The lime defense power of "Combat Reflexes" increases his defense against close attacks (which is consistent with his being a good hand-to-hand combatant); the purple defense power of "Willpower" give him extra actions (I mean, you really need some Willpower to combat crime armed with bees); his damage powers help him and teammates make ranged attacks (like with.a swarm of angry bees). 

It's not a perfect impression of the Red Bee's Golden Age abilities and style, but it's serviceable.
