- “He was just a boy, but he could dream.
So goes the sad tale of Jushtin the un-queen.” - ―Royal family inscription[src]
Jushtin Butterfly, also known as Jushtin the Uncalculated, is a former prince of the Kingdom of Mewni,[1] the son of Skywynne Butterfly, and the older brother of Solaria Butterfly. He is featured in Star vs. the Forces of Evil: The Magic Book of Spells.
Appearance
Jushtin has cream-colored skin, short purple hair that curls upward in the front, green eyes, and purple four-leaf clover-shaped marks on his cheeks. He wears a large feathered hat with a ruby on the front, a red fur coat with a diamond-studded cravat, gray pants, red shoes, a large diamond ring on his left hand's middle finger, and a gold watch on his right wrist. He is 6' tall.[1]
History
- Note: The following information is from Star vs. the Forces of Evil: The Magic Book of Spells.
Jushtin's time as the heir to the throne of Mewni was considerably brief, judging by the shortness of his chapter in the Magic Book of Spells.
Immediately after inheriting the Royal Magic Wand from his mother Skywynne, Jushtin embraced the celebrity lifestyle that came with being prince. His time as heir to the throne was largely spent frequenting Mewni's club scene with his entourage, the "Boy-Prince Cru"—consisting of himself, Prince Sazmo of the Dock of Unending Torment, Prince Pea-Pea of Musty Mountain Caves, Viscount Tinbenz of the Forest of Unlikely Spider Bites, and Whizzbag of Garbage Beach.
However, Jushtin would have to give up his claim to the Mewni throne when Skywynne became pregnant with his younger sister Solaria, due to Mewni being a matriarchal society. Though Solaria would go on to become the next Queen of Mewni, Jushtin served as one of her diplomats to ally the Butterfly family with the Pony Head and Lucitor families against the monsters in the Mewman-Monster War. He later married Duchess Recluza of the Spiderbites.[1]
Powers and abilities
- Royal Magic Wand: As Queen Skywynne's original heir to the throne of Mewni, Jushtin once wielded the royal magic wand, taking the form of a red and white-striped cane with an alligator head in his possession. However, Jushtin only ever used the wand for very simplistic spells (if at all), such as granting wings to a person or object and creating comfortable chariot seats.
