Webby Vanderquack

Webbigail "Webby" Vanderquack is a character featured on DuckTales. She is the granddaughter of Betina Beakley, Scrooge McDuck's maid and cook. It is unknown what happened to Webby's own parents, but Betina seems to be her legal guardian. At the time of Mrs. Beakley's interview for the position of Scrooge's maid, cook and the Nephews' nanny, Betina and Webby were homeless. She agreed to work only for food and shelter for both of them, a deal Scrooge couldn't refuse. Since then, both have been adopted into the Ducks extended family, as she earned a place in Scrooge's heart, evident by him telling her to call him "Uncle Scrooge" even though they're not related.

Personality
Webby is an extremely affectionate, pretty, adorable and emotional little girl and has a great love for animals. She's never without her "Quacky-Patch" doll, a small stitched doll that looks exactly like her, and sometimes keeps small tokens like jellybeans and marbles inside of a hole in its stitching. Webby's love for animals is her greatest asset, since she seems to be able to tame even the most exotic animals indluding dinosaurs and an abominable snowwoman. Her only conflict with animals came when she got lost in the Outback, her doll was stolen by a koala, and she was chased by warthogs, though she eventually overcame her fear and became friends with those animals as well.

Webby is vey expressive and always speaks her mind. An example of this is that in a possible future, Webby is the only one of Scrooge's family to help him return to his own time. She's grown into a lady and is married to Doofus Drake. When Scrooge returns to his own time, he suggests he will see them at their wedding, to which Webby displays great disgust.

The Disney studio promotional material said that her greatest goal is to become the Fourth Nephew. Webby often feels neglected, and this has often been the impetus for her own misadventures. One even caused her to join the Beagle Babes after being kidnapped by them. Despite incidents like the prior, Webby is also often the voice of reason, and is shown to be much more "sencible" about certain, things than the boys. One example of this is in the episode Merit-Time Adventure. Here the children are trying earn their sailing merit patches, but she is the only one who studies for it, while the boys goof-off. In the end her studing pays off, she not gets her patch, but saves the day.
