## Description

Mrs. Pomp is a poorly 3D-modeled character with a human head attached to a red high heeled shoe as her body. She has a blonde pompadour at the very top of her head, hence the name Mrs. **Pomp**, with wild spring-shaped curls coming out the sides. Her face sports blushing rosy cheeks, red lips, and odd-looking purple/brown eyes (revealed as shockingly hyper realistic in her HD render).

When angered, her face gets heavily distorted, with a total of six spring hair curls sticking out in all directions. She is also added with shading effects that make her look a lot darker than usual.

## Personality

Like Baldi, Mrs. Pomp usually has a calm, enthusiastic, happy-go-lucky mood at first as she hops around the school cheerfully. Despite this, she has a much disturbingly negative side, releasing her rage when her instructions are not followed, by stomping around, screaming and berating violently over her students' tardiness.

## Artificial Intelligence

Mrs. Pomp will be seen hopping in the halls. When Mrs. Pomp sees the Player, she will run towards them and tell them to meet her at her classroom unless the Faculty Nametag is in action. However, if she sees the Player, but is not in the same hallway as the Player or they are entering a blue locker, she will seemingly forget about them and continue randomly wandering around the school until she spots the Player again. While she reminds the Player, they are unable to move for 3 seconds.

After reminding the Player, she will wait for 5 seconds, then run to her classroom. If the map is opened, her icon can be seen hopping in her classroom, making sure the Player knows exactly where it is. The Player will be given a timer for two minutes, and told to be at the classroom by the time the timer runs out. Remain cautious that there are many characters who can hinder the Player's progress while following Mrs. Pomp to the classroom:

* Baldi - As he is the one and only character to cause a game over, he can prevent the player from taking the quickest route to Mrs. Pomp's classroom as the Player cannot come into contact with him without An Apple for Baldi or else they will lose a life.
* Playtime - Makes the Player play jump rope. If the Player does not have the Safety Scissors, they will be at risk when time is almost up.
* Gotta Sweep - Could sweep the Player into an area far away from Mrs. Pomp's classroom, putting the Player in danger of being late to her class or being swept into Baldi.
* It's a Bully - If the Player does not have any items left, he might block them and have to go another way which might take longer and if they are unlucky, it might take longer on that route to get to the class before the time is up and/or Baldi will corner them as he will give them a game over.
* Principal of the Thing - Sends the Player to detention in his office if they are caught breaking the school rules. If the office is located far away from Mrs. Pomp's classroom, it puts the Player at more risk.
* 1st Prize - Can push the Player to Mrs. Pomp's classroom, but can also push them to the opposite direction of the way they need to go.
* Cloudy Copter - Slows the Player down if the wind is against them, making him a hindrance. Cloudy Copter can also be helpful by blowing wind in favor of the Player to speed them up.
* Chalkles - If the Player does not manage to get out of the classroom, Chalkles will lock them in the room for 15 seconds and can be a great threat if the time is almost up.
* Beans - Spits a gumball to slow the Player's speed down.

There are also some obstacles to be wary of when heading to the classroom:

* Coin Doors - May block the Player's quickest path to the classroom. If the Player does not have a Quarter in their inventory, then they must find another (and longer) path to the classroom.
* One-Way Swinging Doors - If the Player is on the wrong side, it may be a risk that the class ends.
* Conveyor Belts - Function similar to Cloudy Copter and either speed up or slow down the Player depending on the direction the Conveyor Belt.
* Lockdown Doors and Roto-Halls - Block the Player's path but a button needs to be pressed instead of using a quarter to pass.
* Whirlpools - Can teleport the Player closer to Mrs. Pomp's classroom but also further away.

The Player will earn 100 You Thought Points if they make it to class in time, and Mrs. Pomp will resume wandering around the halls until the Player gets caught by Baldi or completes the floor.

However, if the Player is not at her class in time, she will wait until the next time they enter a room (including but not limited to her own classroom), and make her way very quickly to stand outside the exit of that room. Then, when the Player opens the door to exit the room, Mrs. Pomp will begin screaming at them. If the Player is not already in Mrs. Pomp's classroom, she will pick them up and take them back to her classroom, leaving the Player in a massive threat to being caught by Baldi while this is happening. The Player can escape from Mrs. Pomp by using BSODA to push her or entering a blue locker, but she will go toward them quickly even if they are out of sight as she always knows the Player's location while trying to pick them up.

Once the Player is in her classroom, she will proceed to stomp around the room and "teach" them for 15 seconds. Right after entering the room, the door will immediately be closed and the Player cannot open any door until Mrs. Pomp finishes the class. If there is Chalkles in her classroom, he will spawn right before class dismissed, alerting Baldi and forcing the Player to waste more time if they did not leave the classroom. After two minutes, she will try to remind the Player again to come to another class.

After Mrs. Pomp's timer is over, if the Player opens the door in any room or enters her classroom, Baldi will be attracted and he will go toward the center of her classroom. This attraction can overwrite almost all sounds because her noise value is the second highest of all as 126 along with the buzzing noise from Baldi's Math Machine. Even if Baldi heads to the classroom where the buzzing noise occurs, he will immediately change the direction to Mrs. Pomp's classroom once she makes a noise unless he sees the Player.

If the Player is late for Mrs. Pomp's class and they hide in the Mystery Room, Mrs. Pomp will go to the Mystery Room. However, if the Player opens Mystery Room's door after the event is over, she will disappear and try to wait until the Player enters another room.

As the Player is trapped in the classroom during Mrs. Pomp's outburst, there are a few items to use for escaping the room:

* Principal's Keys - It can be used to open one of the locked doors.
* Dangerous Teleporter - Teleports the Player out of the room.
* Portal Poster - Connects to the any location, but Baldi can see the Player through the portal and try to catch them by passing through it.

While Big Ol' Boots is in effect, even if Mrs. Pomp drags around the Player, they can freely move. However, she will slow them down while contacting with them. The Dirty Chalk Eraser item is useful to hide from Baldi attracted by Mrs. Pomp after entering her classroom.

Mrs. Pomp can open any locked standard door that she contacts with, so it can be used to escape the location if the door is locked by NPCs including Mrs. Pomp herself. Other characters just pass through the locked door and do not open it.

## Trivia

General
* Mrs. Pomp has a number of unused dialogue files, where she was originally intended to randomly give the Player more time to join her classroom.
* She is the second female canon character in the *Baldi's Basics* series. The first female canon character is Playtime.
* She has less hair on the right side of her head, than on the left side. It is unknown why.
* Before Mrs. Pomp was implemented, mystman12 got jump-scared by her when she was slowly rendering due to her shadows on. Her render then popped on the screen at once.[1]
* There is a picture of an HD render of her leaked from mystman12's Twitter,[2] possibly meaning a redesign or prototype.
* Although she is named "**Mrs.** Pomp", who she is married to is currently unknown.

*Baldi's Basics Plus*
* Prior to V0.1.2, there was no quote when Mrs. Pomp spotted the Player.
* Prior to V0.3 update, her timer was 4 minutes in all modes, except for Grapple Challenge.
* She is also the fourth character out of the five characters not to be voiced by mystman12, instead, being voiced by Cady McGonigal. The first character is 1st Prize (voiced by Dr. Sbaitso), the second character is Chalkles (his voice provider is still unknown), the third character is Beans (voiced by Padre Snowmizzle), and the fifth character is Johnny (also voiced by Cady McGonigal)
* In the game's asset files, she is referred to as "`NoL`". This stands for "`NoLateTeacher`", according to the scripts.
* Her office poster claims she invites students to her class, even though the Player is the only one who is invited.
* Mrs. Pomp is unable to move through Cloudy Copter's wind, as she will constantly stomp in the same spot while caught in it.
* When Mrs. Pomp aggressively chases to a room the Player is in, she does not appear until the Player opens the door she is outside of. This is because Mrs. Pomp is not the source of the rapid stomping sound. However, she can still get hit by the gum.
* When Mrs. Pomp screams at the Player for being late at her class, it has an echoing effect, as if she was screaming in an abandoned tunnel.
* Mrs. Pomp stops moving, if there is no way to go to her classroom while the timer is given.
* Mrs. Pomp is the only human-like character that does not have any limbs.
* Prior to V0.3.3, she could make the Player unable to move while they were in her classroom after she got angry. The Grappling Hook was useful to quickly get the Player moving again.
* There were some difference prior to V0.3.4:
	+ After Mrs. Pomp told the Player to come to her classroom, she would walk, instead of running back to her classroom.
	+ The Player's movement would freeze instead of slowing down while being dragged by her.
	+ Mrs. Pomp would not reset after her class is dismissed.
	+ Mrs. Pomp could not open any locked standard doors, so she just pass through it.
	+ Her subtitles would last longer. The stomping sound's subtitle lasted for about 0.6 seconds, but in V0.3.4, it only lasts for 0.3 seconds.
	+ She would teleport the Player and herself to the center of her classroom, if they enters the blue locker or stuck in somewhere while being dragged around for more than 10 seconds.
* If the Player escapes from Mrs. Pomp who tries to drag around them, she will move back and forth between her classroom and their location. If the Player is located too far away from her classroom, she will turn back to their location while she is heading to her classroom.

## Glitches

* In V0.3.2, when Mrs. Pomp starts to walk toward her classroom, she briefly walks the opposite direction of her classroom before entering.
* Prior to V0.3.3, if Principal of the Thing sent the Player to detention right after they opened a door while in any room and Mrs. Pomp did not catch the Player before they got detention, they cannot move until Baldi catches them or quitting the game. This is because Mrs. Pomp would freeze the Player after they opened any door to the hallway, but they could only move after she dragged around them to her classroom.
* Since V0.3.3, if The Test is in the Player's sight while Mrs. Pomp tries to pick the Player up to her classroom, they will stuck until The Test is out of their sight or he makes the "blind" effect to them. Another way to escape this situation is using a Grappling Hook, but it will pull toward to the surface about 3 seconds later after it hits the surface.
