**Nevin Jovel** is a student at Foxfield High School, prospective chef, present emo and main character of the story.

## Appearance

Nevin is a short fifteen year-old-boy with tan skin and dark and almost purple brown eyes. He has straight black hair, which is styled to sweep by his left eye. He is usually wearing a long black coat with a cyan striped shirt underneath with black pants and similar colored shoes. Nevin self-classifies himself as an emo.

## Personality

Nevin tends to be distrusting of others. He is fairly aggressive particularly towards Edward Quinton, whom he has picked fights with before. He also has a more overprotective side, as shown during the many times that he has tried to protect his younger brother Drew Jovel both physically and emotionally. Nevin tends to be very self-assured, thinking he knows better than most and that his way of doing things is the best, getting himself into a lot of trouble on a regular basis, especially considering that he tends to omit the truth out of habit.

He also enjoys cooking, taking the practice very seriously and aiming to be a chef in the future like Grandma Jovel. There are several scenes where Nevin makes breakfast for his brother and Chris Jackson, and Drew has said that Nevin cooks most of the meals when their grandma doesn't have time.

## History

Nevin and Drew were born in Arkansas before their parents divorced. When they were eleven, while living with their father, their stepmother found out that Nevin was gay and locked Nevin in a small room and forced him to cut off ties with his only friend at the time. It is implied that this incident led to Nevin's claustrophobia. Sometime after this incident, Nevin came out to Drew, who didn't tell anyone until they moved with their grandmother and accidentally outed Nevin to her, but she was very understanding.

He and Drew had only been living in Foxfield for a few months before their debut. Nevin did not tell Drew about the presence of his powers or the existence of the supernatural–confirming Drew's suspicions until Season 1, Chapter 20.

### Nevin's Powers

Nevin was born with the power to read people's true emotions. He also has the power to highly increase his strength when his eyes change to a glowing teal color, although it has been said that he was not born with this power, unlike the first. When he uses his increased strength, he risks a strange black substance secreting from some part of his body, like his ears. It is unclear why this happens and it seems that he can control the properties of this substance like in Season 1, Chapter 8, where he had used his power to cut Edward Quinton's strings, the black substance taking the form of a blade.

In Chapter 4 of Season 2, Nevin pushed the limits of his power to see if he could bring this out again. While he succeeded, the ramification of this action did not affect him well, as he did this by purposefully thinking of things that made him feel horrible, such as his mysterious mother, and ended up making himself physically ill. Chris was present the entire time and took Nevin home, fearing for the state Nevin put himself in.
