August 1896. Victorian London is rocked to its foundations by a supernatural event that gives certain people — mostly women — abnormal abilities, from the wondrous to the disturbing. But no matter their particular “turns,” all who belong to this new underclass are in grave danger. It falls to mysterious, quick-fisted widow Amalia True (Laura Donnelly) and brilliant young inventor Penance Adair (Ann Skelly) to protect and shelter these gifted “orphans.” To do so, they will have to face the brutal forces determined to annihilate their kind.
The protagonists of The Nevers are residents of an orphanage that’s become a kind of safe haven from this scrutiny, overseen by Lavinia Bidlow (Olivia Williams), a wealthy benefactor in a wheelchair. Or, to restate this paragraph in fewer words: Victorian Lady X-Men.
