Personality
Wednesday is fascinated with dark and macabre subjects. She is intelligent and interested in mysteries, being very skilled at solving them.
She is very vengeful and chaotic as she seeks revenge on Dalton and his friends for torturing her brother. After arriving at Nevermore Academy, Wednesday is quite an unsociable person, despite Enid Sinclair and Larissa Weems welcoming her. She is never afraid of speaking her mind and can be quite intimidating, blunt and rude to others. But she also has a compassionate side that she only shows to those she cares about.
Starting from the end of the first season, Wednesday starts to become a more friendly. She also shows a great sense of justice when protecting her school. As a result, Wednesday and her friends help each other save Nevermore from Laurel Gates, Joseph Crackstone and the Hyde.
Physical Appearance
Wednesday Addams is a young 16 year old teenager who is 5ft and 1in tall with bangs, long black pigtail braids. She normally wears a long-sleeved black dress that has small white dots all over it.
In the Nevermore Academy, she wears a school uniform that has black stripes with Nevermore Academy's badge on the left side of her chest. Behind her uniform is a long neck tie that's on top of a white shirt. The bottom part of her clothing is a black striped dress under a long pair of black tights.
Wednesday also shares a similar appearance to her ancestor Goody Addams.
