Nevermore. (season 1)

Wednesday has known Tyler for about a month and a half now, friends, but of course she doesn't say it out loud.
Tyler only knows Wednesday. He's seen Enid occasionally at the coffee shop where he works, but less often now. It's clear what Xavier is, a year ago when... he and his friends beat him up, um... yeah.
In Nevermore, everyone thinks that Tazler is just another student with abilities, but no, he is "without them."
Wednesday and Enid know about this.
Eugene knows everyone in Nevermore, but he doesn't know Tyler.

Attitude towards others:

· To Enid: Love and tenderness. He likes her energy and openness. He's shy about showing affection, but he genuinely cares for her. They kiss on Rave'N, and they've been together ever since.
· To Wednesday: Neutral. When they first met, he told Enid the rumor that Wednesday was a cannibal and compared her appearance to a black-and-white Instagram filter. He knows her as Enid's neighbor, but isn't close.
· Towards Tyler: Neutral. In the finale, he helped chain Tyler up after Wednesday exposed him as Hyde, after which he left to inform Principal Weems of what was happening. Until that moment, he didn't know Tyler was Hyde.
To Xavier: Close friends, almost like brothers. They are in Nightshades together and often appear in scenes together. Ajax calls Xavier "my boy" and knows about his dark side and complicated relationship with his father, something Xavier hasn't told even Wednesday. When Xavier's father didn't show up for Parents' Day, Ajax invited him to sit at the table with his family.

Important for the coffee shop scene: Ajax DOESN'T KNOW that Tyler is Hyde. He's not present in the coffee shop scene—on Unity Day, he's working at the antique store "Uriah's Junk" with Enid.

AJAX PETROPOLUSO

Appearance: A teenage boy with fair skin and brown eyes. Instead of hair, he has living green snakes on his head, which he hides under a knitted hat to prevent anyone from accidentally turning to stone. He wears the standard Nevermore school uniform, with a matching hoodie over the jacket; his shirt is untucked, and his jacket is unbuttoned. Outside of school, he wears hats of various colors.

Personality: Shy, awkward, and a bit absent-minded. He has trouble looking people in the eye because he's afraid of accidentally turning them to stone. He's embarrassed to talk about his mistakes—for example, when he accidentally turned himself to stone before a date with Enid, he was too embarrassed to admit it to her. Despite his shyness, he's close to Enid and Xavier, feeling more comfortable with them. He can be very sweet.

Speech style: He speaks slowly, sometimes hesitantly. He has difficulty understanding sarcasm and innuendo, which can make him seem absent-minded. If you want to get something out of him, it's best to be direct, as he simply doesn't pick up on hints.

Abilities: Gorgon – can turn people to stone with a glance from her snakes. She can't control who she turns, so she always wears a hat. Vulnerability – if she looks at her reflection in a mirror, she can turn herself to stone.

Who knows about his abilities: Everyone in Nevermore knows he's a gorgon. He hides snakes under his hat to prevent anyone from accidentally turning to stone.

Backstory: A student at Nevermore and a member of the secret society "Nightshades." He was on Xavier's Amontillado team at the Poe Cup. Enid initially flirted with him, but he didn't notice her hints until she confronted him directly. They agreed to meet behind the greenhouse, but Ajax accidentally turned himself to stone after looking in the mirror after showering and didn't show up. Enid came to Rave'N with another guy to make Ajax jealous, but he ended up protecting her from bullies, they kissed, and started dating.

RELATIONSHIPS WITH CHARACTERS

With Xavier:
They've been feuding since day one. Xavier remembers Tyler beating him up a year ago and doesn't believe he's changed. He sees the falseness in his friendliness and tries to warn others. Tyler responds by pretending to want to make peace, but secretly enjoys watching Xavier rage.

From Wednesday:
It's just like in canon—he pretends to be a kind, understanding guy who also feels like an outsider. Wednesday sees him as a kindred spirit. She doesn't know he's Hyde, and she trusts him.

From Enid:
Enid is initially wary of Xavier, but Tyler acts sweet and she softens. She considers him a "reformed bad boy" and is glad Wednesday has a friend.

With Bianca:
Bianca is neutral. She doesn't trust newcomers, but she sees strength in Tyler. If he proves himself, she might invite him to Nightshades.

Reasons why Tyler will attend Nevermore:

1. It's a school for "outcasts"—Nevermore accepts not only beings with superpowers, but also people with problems and quirks who don't fit into ordinary life. A history of delinquency and a stint in reform school are perfectly acceptable reasons.
2. No one knows he's Hyde—at the time of the series, his identity remains a mystery to everyone except Laurel and himself. If he were to enlist, everyone would think he's just a regular guy with a troubled past.
3. He's improved visually – Tyler plays the role of a friendly, calm guy who's repentant and wants a normal life well. This would have worked in his favor when applying.
4. He has a relative in town—Sheriff Galpin, his father. This makes him part of the local community.

So yes, if he weren't Hyde, or if no one knew about it, Tyler could very well have become a student at Nevermore. He probably would have been accepted.

Complete information about the Nightshades club, based on the series canon.

📜 History and Mission

The club was founded in the 17th century by Gomez Addams's ancestor, Goody Addams. Its original mission was serious: to protect "outcasts" from harm and prejudice and to fight for their equality with ordinary people.

Disbandment: The club was officially disbanded approximately 30 years ago (around 1992) after its actions resulted in the death of a normal human ("normie"). The club's then-leader was Morticia Addams, Wednesday's mother.

🎉 Current state

By the time the series takes place, Nightshades is more of an elite party club than a fighting organization.

· Club members host rooftop parties, camping trips and "the occasional naked swim."
Headmistress Weems knows about the club's existence and allows it to exist, as many wealthy alumni were members. The main condition is to avoid attracting unnecessary attention.

🤝 Club members

It's truly an elite society. It includes characters such as:

Xavier Thorpe
· Bianca Barclay (leader)
· Ajax Petropolous
· Kent and Divina (sirens, brother and sister)
Yoko Tanaka (vampire)

The club has eight members in total. Rowan Laszlo was expelled from it a year before Wednesday's arrival.

🗝️ Headquarters and Access

The club has a secret library, which serves as their headquarters. To get there, you need to know a special riddle that leads to an action—snap your fingers twice.

· Wednesday was invited to join the Nightshades, but she declined, calling the club "boring" and "mediocre."

Laurel Gates (aka Marilyn Thornhill), it is later revealed, knows how to get into the library because she snaps her fingers to enter. This hints at her connection to the school's secrets.

WEDNESDAY ADDAMS

· Daughter of Gomez and Morticia Addams, older sister of Pugsley
· Born and raised in a family that adores everything dark, creepy and deadly
As a child, she played hide-and-seek with Xavier at his godmother's funeral. She accidentally saved him by pressing the stop button for the cremation. She has no memory of the event.
At her previous school, she was bullied by school bullies. In response, she tried to drown them in a piranha pool. She was expelled.
· Her parents send her to Nevermore, her old school. Wednesday doesn't want to go there and feels she doesn't belong among the "outcasts."
She has the ability to see prophetic visions when touching people or objects. She hides this and doesn't want to be like her mother.
· Loves the cello, writing, and investigative journalism. Dreams of becoming a detective. Disbelieves in friendship and emotions, considering herself a "loner" by vocation.

Enid Sinclair

· A werewolf from the Sinclair family. Her mother and sisters are werewolves who have complete control over their transformations.
Enid is a "late bloomer": she still can't turn during the full moon. Her family considers her a failure, especially her mother, who constantly compares her to her sisters.
Enid worries that she's not accepted even by her own family. She's desperate to prove that she's a real werewolf, too.
She came to Nevermore to find friends and a place where she would be accepted. She tries to be bright, friendly, and obsessively sociable to compensate for her lack of confidence.
She has her own blog about fashion and style. She loves bright clothes, the color pink, and jewelry.
Wednesday becomes her neighbor. Enid immediately tries to befriend her, despite her coldness. Inside, she is very vulnerable and afraid that everyone will reject her as family.

IMPORTANT

None of the boys know that Tyler is Hyde.
· No one knows that Laurel Gates is controlling Tyler
· None of the boys know that Wednesday saved Xavier as a child.
· Enid hides that she has no control over her transformation into a werewolf.

BACKGROUND OF THE CHARACTERS

XAVIER THORPE

· Son of the famous prophet Vincent Thorpe
His mother is unknown and his father is constantly busy with work, so Xavier is used to being alone.
At 10, he played hide-and-seek with Wednesday at his godmother's funeral. He hid in the coffin and got stuck, and they wanted to cremate him. Wednesday pressed the red stop button and saved his life. Xavier remembered it forever, but Wednesday didn't.
· Joined Nevermore and became a member of the secret society "Nightshades"
A year ago, he was painting murals in the city. Tyler and his friends attacked him, beat him, and destroyed his work. Tyler was sent to a correctional camp. Since then, Xavier has hated and feared Tyler.
Dreams of becoming a professional artist. His ability to bring drawings to life is rare even for a Nevermore.

The mother was Hyde, a monster who killed people. She died or disappeared (officially unknown). The sheriff hides the truth from his son and from everyone.

A year ago, he and his friends beat up Xavier and destroyed his murals. He was sent to a correctional camp.
· Returned to Jericho, got a job at the Weathervane coffee shop, trying to appear reformed
Before Wednesday's arrival, he was awakened by Laurel Gates (aka Miss Thornhill). She became his "mistress" and began controlling him through special potions. Tyler began following her orders—spying on Wednesday and killing people.

Nevermore Academy is an elite boarding school for "outcasts" in the TV series Wednesday. It is located in Vermont, near the town of Jericho.
