Biography[]
Early Life[]
Little is known of Never's early life besides the fact that their family lived in Roarhaven during the events of Darquesse's rampage and their brother was crushed and killed by a building in the carnage. This caused Never to have negative feelings toward Valkyrie in the future.
When Never first started attending Corrival Academy, they showed an aptitude for Teleportation and studied under Fletcher Renn.
Skulduggery Pleasant: Resurrection[]
Towards the beginning of Resurrection, Never and Omen Darkly go about their lives. Two-thirds in, however, Valkyrie comes to Never for help as they can teleport. Never initially refuses, but Omen persuades them. Never takes the group to San Francisco where they find a new lead. Never takes Temper Fray to New York, then teleports back to San Francisco right into the middle of a fight between Valkyrie and Gleeman Shakespeare. Panicked, Never teleports an unconscious Omen away first but comes back for Valkyrie.
The Irish Sanctuary reaches out to Never and asks them to teleport a group of Cleavers to help Valkyrie Cain. However, Omen calls and urges Never to take him and Temper with them. Never takes the group to Coldheart Prison and back.
Relationships[]
Never was in a relationship with Auger Darkly. (They broke up in 'Dead or Alive')
Personality[]
Never has been shown to both care and tease Omen, and to gently nudge their friend to work harder at school. A particular noteworthy quality of Never is their hatred for Valkyrie Cain, caused by Darquesse causing the death of their older brother. Never also seems wary of Skulduggery Pleasant.
Description[]
Magic[]
Like all students at Corrival Academy, Never has been trained in multiple fields of magic and has yet to experience the Surge. However, they are a naturally gifted Teleporter under the tutelage of Fletcher Renn. They also have an aptitude for Elemental magic and Omen describes them as "pretty good at everything".
Physical Appearance[]
Never has long, ash-brown hair which they use as an indicator of their preferred pronouns (tied up for male, down for female). As a Third Year at Corrival Academy, Never wears the standard uniform of a black blazer (with purple piping and the school crest on the left breast), black trousers or skirt, white shirt, and purple tie. They wear the trousers when identifying as male, and the skirt as female.
Trivia[]
- Never is the first genderfluid character in the series.
- Given that Never's brother was killed by building falling on him (caused by Darquesse either on Devastation Day or before), it is highly likely Never's family were Roarhaven Mages who were aware of Erskine Ravel's plan to rule over mortals. It is unknown how exactly Never feels towards mortals themselves.
