Barry Dort is the new principal of Nevermore Academy , and it can be said that he is quite unlike Principal Weems. To be precise, he is the polar opposite of the predecessor. Dort doesn’t show any disrespect for Weems, but he doesn’t respect her either. He believes that Weems had a soft corner for the normies, and he is going to repair the mistakes made by her.
While Wednesday Addams was trying to prevent the school from plunging into darkness, Weems called her a trouble magnet. However, in Wednesday Season 2 , when the girl showed up at Nevermore after the summer vacation, Dort greeted her with a huge smile and called her the saviour of the academy.
Now, if you remember Weems as a flawless impersonator who could take the form of anyone, the first episode revealed the powers of Barry Dort. He is a skilled fire manipulator and summoner who can ignite anything with his fingers.
