Beaver

Beaver, the tritagonist of the series, is the clever, intelligent one of the bunch, who seems to act like the main heroine of the show.

She is voiced by Leah Renee Cudmore in the original series and Emily Nighman in Franklin and Friends.

As a member of the Super Cluepers, Beaver is known as Book Whiz.

Plot

Often overly sure of herself, Beaver sometimes shows hints of bossiness, boisterousness, and narcissism, but is certainly one of the more intelligent of the group. Beaver is not overtly sarcastic, though, and being with her generally more kind-tempered friends helps to keep her abrasiveness in check. Beaver is a know-it-all and when referencing to teenagers, she would be considered a "Queen Bee". Because of her personality, she can sometimes become self-conscious. She has buckteeth and can't help it if she's chewing on her pencils. She loves sports, has a little brother named Kit and a pet hamster named Henry, neither of which are depicted in Franklin and Friends. She’s a talented dancer as well.

Personality

Beaver is shown to be bold, kind and cheerful, with a charming and cunning attitude, but can be openly rude and snobby with her sulky, bossy and conceited behavior. She always wants to be right, and she gets stubborn, selfish, grumpy and frustrated when she isn't. She shows a lot of sarcasm at times, but is not meant to put it realistically. Her friends help keep her levelheaded at times when she acts like a know-it-all. She likes to respond to many of her friends' questions or information she already knows with her catchphrase, "Everybody knows that!". Beaver is also extremely smart and seems to be a bookworm. Beaver can sometimes be a stickler for the rules; she could, but not always be bragging about herself, but really she is helpful and loyal to her friends. On the tender side, Beaver acts like an older sister with a voice of reason, being mature, sweet and friendly.

Looks

Beaver has brown and white fur. Her hands, feet, nose, and tail are gray-colored, and her teeth are white.
