Line 80:
Beatrice is Princess' best friend at Queen's Mayfaire (and vice versa), and despite her high birth (her father is a Baron) is happy to serve as a servant to royalty. She was originally an honest and straightforward girl, although getting involved with the spies who have infiltrated the school quickly changed her behaviour.
 
She's also a [[ManVoice of a Thousand Voices|Woman of a Thousand VoicesChangeling]] (the anime fakes this by having multiple voice actors read her lines), thanks to mechanical vocal cords that her father implanted in her throat (against her will). This comes in handy, when she's able to be heard and not seen by Team Principal's opponents.
 
Beatrice is an amateur spy, and thus fills the story role of "person to explain things to" – letting the scriptwriters avoid the use of [[As You Know]]. She supports the team with her skills as a mechanic and her superhuman mimicry ability.
Line 86:
{{tropelist|Tropes exhibited by Beatrice include:}}
* [[Curtains Match the Window]]: Beatrice has brown hair and eyes... and her [[Brown Eyes]] show that she's a trustworthy and stable character.
* [[Cyborg]]: Strictly speaking; her mechanical voice box qualifies her.
* [[Mundane Utility]]: Beatrice uses her steampunk vocal cords for more than just impersonations.
** In Case 7, the implants prevent her from being beheaded, stopping a sword swing from an assassin who had just killed two people with one sword swing each.
Line 92:
** In Case 22, she ultrasonically calms some dogs.
* [[Naive Newcomer]]: To the spy business.
* [[ManVoice of a Thousand Voices|Woman of a Thousand VoicesChangeling]]: As mentioned above.
* [[Wrench Wench]]: And not afraid to get herself dirty in the process, as shown in Case 16.
