- “Rules and schools are tools for fools!”
- ―Constance's motto
Constance Contraire is the quartagonist in the Disney+ series The Mysterious Benedict Society. She is a rude and blunt girl who solves her problems with unconventional solutions.
Background[]
Personality[]
Constance is a very rude and inconsiderate girl. She tends to be very blunt about her opinions and does not care what others think of her. She is said to have "unconventional thoughts" and apparently displays some intense rebelliousness, to the point where her previous boarding school avoided giving her a roommate to keep her from having tantrums. Constance seems to hide her feelings behind her stubborn nature, often insulting the other members of the Mysterious Benedict Society despite having concern for their wellbeing.
She is incredibly smart, though many do not notice due to the fact she prefers to ignore rules; she was shown to be able to pass Benedict's tests despite refusing to answer questions, and she is able to pass Mr. Oshiro's classes with little effort once she is focused and motivated. She also showed this by figuring out Curtain's complex code in one night, as soon as she was away from distracting sounds such as "Kate's finger tapping, Sticky's chewing, and Reynie's breathing."
Physical appearance[]
Constance is a small girl who has blonde hair done in two braided loops. Unlike the others, she rarely has other variations of her attire is is always wearing a dark pink coat over a green or yellow dress and dress shoes.
In season two, her outfit is relatively unchanged except for minor cosmetic differences. Halfway through the season, she ditches her pink coat in favor of a bright yellow one.
Abilities[]
Constance has a low level of psychic sensitivity, being able to hear the Whisperer directly instead of simply feeling its effects. She also has high intelligence and complex puzzle skills; though she dislikes Morse Code, she was able to decipher several of Benedict's hidden messages almost on her own.
Constance is proficient in writing poetry, even though it is usually insulting.
