== Plot ==
A bizarre manifestation in the Control Room forces the TARDIS onto the Plutonian shores of the irradiated world Nevermore, whose sole inhabitant is the war criminal Morella Wendigo – a prisoner of this devastated planet. But the Doctor and his new companion aren’t Morella’s only visitors. Senior Prosecutor Uglosi fears the arrival of an assassin, after the blood of his prize prisoner. An assassin with claws…
 
There’s no escape from Nevermore, whose raven-like robot jailers serve to demonstrate Uglosi’s macabre obsession with the works of the 19th century horror writer Edgar Allan Poe. An obsession that might yet lead to the premature burial of everyone on the planet’s surface – wreathed in the mist they call the Red Death!

REMEMBER, SORTING IS CASE-SENSITIVE.  SORTING BY THE LETTER 'd' IS A DIFFERENT THING THAN SORTING BY 'D'.
It is much better to use DEFAULTSORT than to sort manually for each category, because this page might later get put

sort keys on a category will override DEFAULTSORT for that category.

Nevermore, previously called Corinth Minor, was a planet located in Cassiopeia. It had volcanoes that showered semi-precious gemstones instead of lava. It became a playground for the rich and famous, including General Verdigast. The general was involved in what the Eighth Doctor described as a "particularly nasty factional war" against one of the rival Cassiopeian colonies. His rival, General Morella Wendigo, detonated a biological weapon in Corinth Minor's troposphere. Faced with the outbreak of a previously unknown flesh-eating plague, the Galactic Authority sought the help of the Time Lords. The Time Lords passed the planet through a belt of ultraviolet radiation, killing almost the entire population of the planet through the Red Death. The authorities renamed it "Nevermore" as a reminder of the folly of war. Wendigo was sentenced by a war crimes tribunal to a lifetime of exile to Nevermore so that she could contemplate her crimes.
