## Store description

Create a cloud of chalk dust and block off the sight of Baldi and his freinds. Stand inside to hide, or use it to sneak past characters without them seeing you.

The **Dirty Chalk Eraser** is an inventory item in *Baldi's Basics Plus*.

## Description

The Dirty Chalk Eraser is a photo-realistic, dithered chalk eraser which has black felt and a wooden handle.

## Usage

### Main gameplay

The Dirty Chalk Eraser produces white dust clouds when used. While in the dust cloud:

* Baldi cannot see the player.
* Principal of the Thing cannot see the player breaking the rules, thus he cannot send them to detention.
* Playtime will not notice the player and cannot play the jump rope minigame with them unless she sees them.
* Arts and Crafters cannot see the player when all the notebooks are collected, and therefore he cannot charge at them while behind the dust cloud.
* Beans cannot see the player and will not spit the bubble gum at them.
* Mrs. Pomp cannot see the player, therefore she will not tell them to get to her class.
* The Test cannot see them, which means the player cannot be blinded.
* 1st Prize cannot see the player, so he will not move towards them.

After a while, the characters will go into other directions. However, there could be a chance of them wandering towards the player and seeing them, unless they are in the corner of a room.

Even if the player is in the dust cloud, if other characters head to the same tile where the player is on, they can see and interact with them.

### Challenges

In the Stealthy Challenge, the player starts with their inventory completely filled with Dirty Chalk Eraser items. The Dirty Chalk Eraser, along with the Energy Flavored Zesty Bar, are one of the few items to collect and can be used to hide from the Principal of the Thing clones.

## Locations

### *Baldi's Basics Plus*

#### Hide-and-Seek

Being common, the Dirty Chalk Eraser can be found in both faculty rooms and classrooms. They can also be bought in Johnny's Store for 75 You Thought Points. It is also one of the five items that can spawn with another item (in faculty rooms), the other four being the Principal's Keys, Quarter, Alarm Clock and Safety Scissors.

#### Endless Mode - Medium

There are two Dirty Chalk Erasers found in a faculty room along with a WD-NoSquee.

### *Baldi's Basics Classic Remastered*

These items can only be found in NULL/Glitch Style. Three Safety Scissors in three classrooms where they usually spawn in Classic Style are replaced with Dirty Chalk Erasers. There is also a Dirty Chalk Eraser behind Baldi's bus, but it is noted that once the player gets in the building, this Dirty Chalk Eraser is unable to be picked up because the exit is closed.

## Other appearances

* In *Baldi's Basics Kickstarter Exclusive Demo* and *Baldi's Basics - Challenges Demo*, the item has a fade-in effect when used.

## Trivia

* The item was first found in the C-sharp for the *Full Game Early Demo* in DnSpy, in the "`Items`" part of the code. The Dirty Chalk Eraser was later introduced in the *Kickstarter Exclusive Demo*.
* In the item's store description, the word "friends" is misspelled as "freinds".

## Glitches

* After completing a field trip, the dust cloud disappears, but its effect still lasts.
* The sprite of the dust cloud will not be affected by The Test's blind effect or the fog event.
* Prior to V0.3.5, Beans could spit gum at the player even if they were hiding in the dust cloud.
