School for Evil

The **School for Evil** is the evil half of the School for Good and Evil. Its full name is The School for Evil Edification and Propagation of Sin. Its current dean is Sophie of Woods Beyond. Its students are commonly known as Nevers.

## Architecture

The School for Evil has staircases which leads to three towers: **Malice, Mischief,** and **Vice**. The school was designed black for its outer appearance.

### Interior

The school, described and written by the author himself, smelled like a mix of unwashed bodies, stinking wolf and mildewed stone. Three staircases leads to each tower, one carved with monsters read MALICE, another one etched with spiders said MISCHIEF, and the last with snakes read VICE. Along the walls are covered with different-colored frames according to the Never's alumni ranking.

**MALICE TOWER -** Not much is known about this tower except that Sophie, Dot, Hester and Anadil were roommates in this tower (Room 66). The dorm room was described as a "burnt dorm room" (by Sophie), which probably applies with the other rooms, too.

**MISCHIEF TOWER -**

**VICE TOWER -**

**SCHOOL MASTER (now Dean Sophie's) TOWER -** The School Master's tower was transformed into Dean Sophie's Quarters after the [Master] deceased. The tower has a Sophie statue (known as Winner's Weatherwane) as the roof with her way to the Evil Castle.

### Exterior

The school was formerly black and has an architecture of a castle, and shares a few similarities with The School for Good. The castle's appearance changed after Rafal's death as Sophie took charge for The School for Evil. Currently, the school is designed to look like a Halloween "amusement park", with flashy orange-red lights with an evil look.

**Teachers & Faculty:**

* MALE: Male teachers of Evil must wear one of the dark-colored robes hanging in the Tower of Vice haunted wardrobe. These robes are 500 years old, never washed and their stench well earned. (Many a teacher has smothered with these robes as a punishment.) Faculty are encouraged to accesorise with spikes, chains, and collars, provided they are true testaments to Evil rather than fleeting fashion trends.

## School Teachers and Faculty

### **Lady Lesso** (Former Curses & Death Traps)

Lady Lesso taught curses and death traps that could help the villains kill their Nemesis. She also led some challenges such as murder practice, which was supposedly her favorite. She taught before and during Sophie and Agatha's years at the school.

### **Sophie of Woods Beyond** (Current Curses & Death Traps)

It was never really said what Sophie really taught, only that she was the replacement for Lady Lesso once Lady Lesso died.

### **Bilious Manley** (Uglification)

"Ugliness - Being ugly means freedom. Only when you destroy who you think you are you will be free!"

### **Wolves**

In charge of the school's patrol and discipline. Failed students will be slaves in the opposite school, thus making the failed Nevers become Fairies (a few of them) and the failed Evers become Wolves.

## Weekly Meal Plan

Dean [[6]] created a new meal plan for the School for Evil, forbidding milk, gruel, potatoes, cheese, salt and shellfish. Instead, it offers greens as the foundation of meals, smelly foods that are good for the skin, bread-like substances and occasional indulgences for dates, balls, weddings or coronations. [[7]] and [[8]] were very skeptical of this plan, with Hester suggesting takeaways as a good way to eat instead, enclosing menus in the [Ever Never Handbook|Ever Never Handbook].

## Trivia

* The students at The School for Evil call themselves Nevers, referring to "Nevermore".
* Each villain (who defeats their nemesis) has their own "Nevermore".
* Graduation ranks consist of: Leaders (Students who consistently stay in first 5 rankings), Henchmen (students who consistently stay between rankings 6 to 12) and Mogrifs (Students who consistently stay in the 13th rank or lower).
* The School For Evil applies punishment to students in The Doom Room. The Executioner was the Beast until Sophie killed him after her time in the Doom Room
