Appearance
Benevolence is a woman of petite build, about 5,0 in height but of good figure, even without her corset she has a petite waist and an slim figure.  She has very pale skin which is contrasted with her very dark, jet black  hair which she tends to keep in unfussy styles, and isnt found of the heavily ornamented, nor lead set ringlets as she thinks they make her face look frumpy. She does however, wear a flower in her hair most days.  She has large blue eyes which she sees as her most attractive feature and a prominent cupids bow mouth.  

Her style of dress is simple and practical, she likes working in the greenhouse means so she generally wears block colours, without patterns, or overly fussy ornamentation and she HATES English pointwork and will not wear it under any circumstances.

* They marry, a match of love and good breeding.

Personality
quiet, bookish, passionate, sweet natured, pragmatic, sensible, dutiful. She is passionate and warm once you get to know her but only intimate friends see this side of her, as she can come across as especially proper and formal when not in her circle of intimates. When you are in her circle you will find her warm, kind and effervescent on subjects about which she is passionate.
Other
Benevolences patronus is a hummingbird
Her amormentia smells of leather of books, spices and a warm almost mulled wine.
The Montagues are on the richer end of the middle class spectrum. Financially they would be considered lower end upper class, but Montagues status as only one generation from self made money has limited the Montagues to being considered middle class. The Montague grandfather secured the families financial future.
