Sweetbee is a member of a race of intergalactic Bee People. Her people fled from the homeworld when it was destroyed when their sun exploded then they came to Etheria to find a new home.
All of her people possess bee-like wings on the backs which give them the ability to fly. Sweetbee is sent by The Hive to scout for a new planet to colonise, to find out if the planet has a good source of water and also if the people of the planet are peaceful in nature.
