Vzkříšenci

**Vzkříšenec** je člověk, který povstal z mrtvých. Byl povolán jiným žijícím Vzkříšencem, aby se stal jeho nástupcem. Ten se vrátí do života a jeho úkolem je postarat se o zbloudilé duše v limbu. Podle pravidla však nemůže zasahovat do života živých lidí.

Celý řád Vzkříšenců obsahuje několik skupin, přičemž každá z nich odpovídá za pokrytí jistého území. Jejími členy jsou vůdce Převor, popravčí Carnifex a deset vojáků.

Pokud nastane výjimka a Vzkříšenec předá své schopnosti svému následníkovi až posmrtně, vznikne tzv. falešný Vzkříšenec, který má takřka neomezenou moc a na rozdíl od běžných Vzkříšenců dokáže čerpat energii přímo z limbu. Takovým příkladem falešného Vzkříšence je Martin Lafetka.
Kachooga Boop

— Narration

Illustrated by Tim Heitz

"**Kachooga Boop**" is the twenty-seventh chapter of *Wayside School Beneath the Cloud of Doom*.

## Synopsis

The kids in Mrs. Jewls's class hear a threatening bell they've never heard before.

## Plot

The chapter opens by revealing that no one failed the Ultimate Test, as Mrs. Jewls came up with it herself so each student's special talent would shine. Back in the classroom, Mrs. Jewls asks if anyone has nail clippings for their collection. Myron has thirty-seven, which he adds to the bucket, bringing the total to 999,999, but before he can write it on the board, he is interrupted by a loud bell that goes *kachooga boop*! The class is startled, as it is followed by a *kachooga* followed by two, then three *boops*. No one has heard this bell before. Mrs. Jewls scrambles to find the guide to Wayside School's bell system in the back closet to find out what that bell means, which she has to dust off.

She starts reading as a loud *BOOM* shakes the room, turning out the lights. She grabs another candle so she can read it. It states that if the class hears a *kachooga* followed by a few *boops*, they must evacuate immediately, because the Cloud of Doom is about to destroy everything. Another *BOOM* shakes the room, as the children run for the door, but it won't open, as Mrs. Jewls's paper clip closet is blocking the way. Todd, Maurecia, Dameon, and Allison try to push it out of the way, but they can't, until Kathy suggests that Stephen helps them after all the push downs he’s been doing.

They push the closet out of the way, as its sirens and smokescreens go off. The chains and steel bar are shattered, and paper clips are strewn across the floor. Benjamin and Rondi start picking them up, but Mrs. Jewls asks them to leave them, so they know that the situation is serious. Mrs. Jewls leads the class down the stairs as they hold hands so they will not get lost in the darkness, but Joe slips on a skateboard, bringing everyone else down with him. They land sprawled across the staircase, feeling doomed as the school shakes around them and worrying about what they should do, but they notice a light coming from inside a classroom that's still open, where they see a strange woman with a long fingernail on her pinky, whom they have never seen before.

A Short Chapter About a Long Book

Illustrated by Tim Heitz

"**A Short Chapter About a Long Book**" is the sixteenth chapter of *Wayside School Beneath the Cloud of Doom*.

## Synopsis

Jason has to read the longest book in the world.

## Plot

This chapter opens with a repeat of Mrs. Jewls's book report, quickly followed by a disclaimer that it's not a repeat of "Consider the Paper Clip." Jason, who has picked up a 999-page book from the library, is starting to regret checking it out, as the weight makes it difficult to carry, and reading it feels like a monumental task. Mrs. Jewls repeatedly asks him how far he is in the book, though he simply says that it's a really, really, really long book, a response he always gives, though the number of "reallys" varies. Allison and Rondi tease him, asking if he has finished the book yet. Jason isn't even sure if the author finished writing it.

That evening, however, as Jason is trying to read, he reaches page twenty-six, and starts laughing and becomes quite invested in the story, which he thinks is really funny. He reads for an hour, now feeling like he and the character have become friends, and eventually starts reading so much that he cannot stop. He stays up all night, constantly waiting to see what will happen next. The next day, Allison and Rondi show up to tease him on the playground, but he asks them to stay quiet so he can read.

## Characters

* Mrs. Jewls
* Jason
* Allison
* Rondi
* Jason's sister (only appearance)

## Trivia

* This chapter is a follow-up to "Mrs. Surlaw," and is further followed up in "Inside the Closet."
* True to its title, this chapter is the shortest chapter of *Wayside School Beneath the Cloud of Doom*. In the main *Wayside School* series, however, it is still longer than chapters such as "Miss Zarves" and "Elevators."
* This is the third time Allison and Rondi teased Jason. The first two were in "Jason" and "Pencils".

Eric, Eric, and What's-His-Name?

— Narration

Illustrated by Tim Heitz

"**Eric, Eric, and *What's-His-Name?***" is the fifth chapter of *Wayside School Beneath the Cloud of Doom*.

## Synopsis

Eric Ovens hopes to find more recognition after bringing in a large number of nail clippings.

## Plot

The chapter opens by stating there are three Erics in Mrs. Jewls's class. Eric Fry, who is fast and strong, Eric Bacon, who is funny, clever, and sneaky, and Eric Ovens who is quiet, kind, and trustworthy; the kind of person that regularly gets the least attention from his classmates. However, Eric Ovens plans to change this, as he brought in eighty-three nail clippings, enough to beat the record of seventy-one that had been brought in before. Kathy asks how many he has, but Eric Ovens stays quiet, worrying that he'll jinx it, or that Kathy will be mean. Mrs. Jewls prepares to collect more nail clippings that morning, and calls on Eric, but before Eric Ovens can get out of his seat, Eric Fry walks to the front of the room.

Eric Fry unravels his fist, revealing forty nail clippings, dropping them into the collection bucket. Eric Ovens is relieved, knowing he'll still have the record. Eric Fry adds his clippings, bringing the class total to 2,717. Stephen remarks that's almost a million, but Allison thinks he's a bit off. Eric Ovens prepares to submit his collection, but Eric Bacon is already heading to the front of the room when he submits a bag with 349 nail clippings. Mrs. Jewls is skeptical, but after having Dameon, Allison, and John count, finds out that he's right. Eric Bacon explains he got them by going door-to-door, as he happily sets the new record. Stephen once again remarks that it's almost a million, but Allison still asserts it's not close.

Eric Ovens feels defeated, but Kathy is still impressed with his collection. Kathy encourages him to go up, raising his arm for him. Eric Ovens is still sad, feeling like he hardly gave any, compared to Eric Bacon, but Kathy cheers him on for bringing in the second-most of anyone in the class, and everyone else joins her. Now feeling proud of himself, he adds his nail clippings to the collection, bringing the total to 3,149. Stephen remarks that it's closer to a million, and Allison isn't able to argue with it.

## Characters

* Eric Ovens
* Eric Fry
* Eric Bacon
* Mrs. Jewls
* Kathy
* Stephen
* Allison
* Sharie
* Dameon
* John
* Leslie

## Trivia

* While in "The Three Erics," it is stated that Eric Fry was usually picked last on teams, here it is stated he is usually picked first. It is possible that the other students in Mrs. Jewls's class realized he is actually athletic in the time between the two chapters.
* The illustration seen in the Aleksei Bitskoff edition of this chapter is shared with the one seen in "A Million."

#### Substitute teachers

Characters that have substituted for Mrs. Jewls's class at some point or another.

 Miss Wendy Nogard |  | A substitute teacher with a third ear that hears thoughts. While initially kind, her heart was broken by Xavier Dalton, causing her to become bitter, using her ability to turn people against each other.

### Recurring characters

Other characters that appear in multiple chapters with major roles, including students in other classrooms and other adult figures.

### Minor and one-off characters

These characters only appear in one chapter, or are otherwise minor enough to be placed in this section, albeit major enough to get their own page. Characters less significant than these are placed in the list of minor *Wayside School* characters.

## Cartoon

### Main characters

In the cartoon, four students in Mrs. Jewls's class make up the main cast, listed below.

 Dana |  | A studious and organized, albeit easily amused student who knows all the rules and ropes of Wayside School. She helps Todd adapt to his surroundings, and serves as Myron's campaign manager.

 Louis |  | The school's part-time playground supervisor, janitor, and cow caretaker, Louis is a laid-back and agreeable figure who often acts as a foil to Mr. Kidswatter.

### Mrs. Jewls's class

Ingénieurs

### Les Ingénieurs Edit

Les ingénieurs ne sont pas plus que ceux qui travaillent au chantiers
pour relier les îles entre elles, se sont les meilleurs des Viscans et
ces aptitudes leurs permettent en plus d'avoir une intelligence
superieure. Ils vont surprendre en combat par leur ingéniosité et les
outils qu'ils vont utiliser. Ils peuvent se spécialiser dans les
machines de guerres et être dévastateurs sur place, ou plus superviser
l'équipe en tant que commandants.

Technicien->ingénieur->Commandant/Maître de Guerre
Garde Civile

La garde civile sont les gardes employés par les villes, bien souvent
des mercenaires, leur role est moins de protéger mais de répendre
l'ordre, bien souvent a coup poing dans le visage, ce sont de bons
guerriers, malins, qui savent que frapper l'entre-jambe est efficace.
Ils vont se spécialiser en commandants ou en archer, ce ne sera pas le
commandant moral comme la garde royale, mais le commandant stratégique.

Mrs. Gunn

— "Bebe's Baby Brother"

* Cartoon
* Allen

**Mrs. Gunn** is a minor character in the *Wayside School* books and cartoon. She is the mother of Bebe Gunn.

## Appearance

In the books, Mrs. Gunn's appearance is never described, but a statue of her appears in the episode "Cabbage, My Boy," where she is seen to be a woman with long hair, a bow in her hair, a white-collared shirt, and full lips.

## Personality

Mrs. Gunn is a very minor character in the books, as she only appears in the chapter "Bebe's Baby Brother." In this chapter, it is revealed that she is well aware that her daughter is a troublemaker, and that her regular antics prove tiresome to her. She is quick to assume that Bebe is causing trouble when Mrs. Jewls calls her, but despite this, doesn't seem to be a particularly strict parent, as she allows Bebe to stay up past midnight to create her best artwork.

Absolutely nothing can be inferred about her personality in the cartoon, as she only appears briefly as a statue in the episode "Cabbage, My Boy."

## Relationships

### Bebe Gunn

Although she is Bebe Gunn's mother, she seems to regularly get tired of her troublesome personality, immediately questioning what Bebe did when Mrs. Jewls calls her. She states that Mrs. Jewls's assesment of Ray being an "angel on the outside and a devil underneath" summarizes Bebe pretty well, and according to Bebe, she regularly blames her for her likely misdeeds. That being said, Mrs. Gunn allows Bebe to stay up past midnight to work on her artwork, as long as her grades are good.

### Ray Gunn

Mrs. Gunn doesn't seem to know who Ray Gunn is, despite Bebe claiming that he is her younger brother. Interestingly, Ray appears on the nineteenth story, but his actual relation to Mrs. Gunn is unknown. According to Bebe, Mrs. Gunn never assumes anything bad of Ray, but this is likely because she doesn't even know that he exists.

## Appearances

Mrs. Gunn appears in one chapter and one episode.

* "Bebe's Baby Brother"
* "Cabbage, My Boy" (as a statue)

## Trivia

* Ray Gunn is an actual character who appears on the nineteenth story, but whether or not he is actually related to Mrs. Gunn is unknown.

Guilty

— Miss Wendy Nogard’s thoughts

Illustrated by Tim Heitz

"**Guilty**" is the twenty-fifth chapter of *Wayside School Gets a Little Stranger*.

## Synopsis

After Miss Nogard hears Maurecia is blamed for tearing the dictionary, she purposely tries to make her feel guilty by having her confess to it.

## Plot

The chapter opens with the students in Mrs. Jewls's class working on various assignments, while Miss Nogard scans the room for another victim. She picks Maurecia, knowing everyone would be guilty of something. Maurecia tries to think about why she's been called to the front of the room, when she remembers the time she accidentally ripped a page in the class's dictionary before Miss Nogard came to Wayside to substitute for Mrs. Jewls. Initially, she thinks there's no way Miss Nogard could know about what she did, but when Miss Nogard asks her to bring the dictionary so she can look up the word "journey", she confesses. Miss Nogard says that she is disappointed in Maurecia for tearing the dictionary and never telling anyone, and Maurecia is mad at herself.

Miss Nogard then says that she needs to apologize to the entire class, since it's the class's dictionary. Then she has her read both sides of the page that was torn (which has some long and difficult words), since it is now unusable and must be memorized. Miss Nogard also says that there will be a test afterward, to the other students' dismay.

Everyone blames Maurecia for giving them extra work. While Maurecia isn't mad at Miss Nogard, thinking she is only being fair, she doesn't know how she knows about her mistake. She realizes one of her classmates must have told on her, and looks around the room, unsure if she can trust any of her friends anymore.

## Characters

* Miss Wendy Nogard
* Maurecia
* Mrs. Jewls (mentioned)
* Jason
* Jenny
* Deedee
* Todd
* Terrence
* Joy

## Trivia

* Mrs. Jewls's class had apparently gotten more computers after their first new one was destroyed.
* Maurecia considers Terrence a friend in this chapter marking one of, if not the only occurrence in which someone has a positive opinion of Terrence. Although, in "Maurecia", she is said to like everyone except Kathy.

Eric Ovens (cartoon)

*For information on this character in the books, see Eric Ovens.*

## Eric Ovens

**Eric Ovens** is a character in the cartoon *Wayside*. He is one of the three Erics, alongside Eric Fry and Eric Bacon. He is one of the many students in Mrs. Jewls's class.

## Appearance

In the cartoon, Eric Ovens is a relatively short and fat student wearing a blue long-sleeved shirt with yellow highlights, and dark blue shorts. He wears white socks with blue stripes, and golden-brown shoes. Eric Ovens has light skin, blond hair, and wears glasses. His nose and glasses are very similar to those of the other Erics.

## Personality

Due to Eric Ovens's minor role in the cartoon, little can be inferred about his personality. As well as this, he has the most minor role of all three Erics, as "The Three Erics" primarily focuses on Eric Bacon. From what can be told, he often falls into routine with the other two Erics, and holds a very tightly-knit bond with them. He seems to have a friendly and accepting nature, as he easily accepts Maurecia into her group, though he could be oblivious to noticing her concerns. As such, it could be stated that of the three Erics, Eric Ovens is the most faithful to his book counterpart.

## Appearances

For a list of every episode Eric Ovens is seen in, see here.

## Trivia

* While which Eric is which is never directly confirmed in Wayside, it can be assumed that this one is Eric Ovens, as he is relatively short and fat, and the episode "My Partner Gets All the Credit" depicts the tallest and skinniest Eric as being athletic, in contrast to the other two, leading to the assumption that one is Eric Fry.

Le système de combat est fait en 2 étapes, la première étant l'initiation du combat, on y resume la position de chaque joueur ou élément du RP afin que les joueurs fassent le moins d'erreurs possibles. On y calcule l'initiative de tout le monde afin de déterminer l'ordre de jeu des combatants. Après avoir déterminé tout cela, il faut passer a la phase de combat, la ou les combatants vont, évidament, se combattre. Cela se fera en plusieurs étapes aussi.

## La Phase d'Initiation

Avant que les combatants se mettent sur la gueule, il faut déterminer qui aura le droit de le faire en premier. Mais avant cela, pour éviter des confusions quelconques, l'idéal serais de décrire la scène du combat, en tout cas ce que peuvent voir les joueurs individuellement. Après cela, touts les joueurs vont lancer 1D10 auquel va être sommé leurs degrés d'agilité, cela va nous donner, pour chaque joueur un résultat que le MJ va noter quelque part afin de s'en souvenir durant le combat.

Tableau exemple:

## La Phase de Combat

La phase de combat est beaucoup plus complexe, et ne finis qu'après que le combat soit fini. Il faut prendre en compte que chaque tour pendant cette phase prends a peu près 5 secondes.

Chaque tour est divisé entre 2 demi-tours dans lequel vous pourrez faire toutes sortes d'actions: courir, vous préparer, combattre, recharger, etc...

Pour savoir a quelle vitesse vous courrez, consultez la page Vitesse de Mouvement.

Vous pouvez executer n'importe quelle action deux fois pendant votre tour, avec vos deux demi-tours, cépendant il y a des exceptions: vous ne pouvez pas engager la séquence de combat deux fois pendant votre tour (il y a tout de même des façon de combat qui vous authoriserons de utiliser un tour entier pour faire une attaque), et en toute évidence, il y a des actions que vous ne pouvez pas faire deux fois, par exemple, se relever après être tombé.

### La Séquence de Combat

La phase de combat est assez complexe, elle est divisée en plusieur étapes a suivre afin d'arriver a un résultat qui se soustrairas au total des points de vie de l'adversaire.

Blame It on the Cloud

Illustrated by Tim Heitz

"**Blame It on the Cloud**" is the twenty-third chapter of *Wayside School Beneath the Cloud of Doom*.

## Synopsis

The students use the Cloud of Doom as a scapegoat for their misbehavior.

## Plot

Mrs. Jewls is handing back arithmetic tests, and is disappointed in Joy when she hands back hers. Joy remarks that the Cloud of Doom made her change her answers, and using two strokes, Mrs. Jewls changes her grade from an F to a B. Bebe enters the room over fifteen minutes late, and once again, blames it on the Cloud. Paul pulls both of Leslie's pigtails at the same time, and claims the Cloud of Doom made him do it. Leslie calls him an "ugly bug sniffer," and blames it on the Cloud as well. Jenny and D.J. both laugh at this, and blame the Cloud.

Mrs. Jewls continues to hand back the tests, reaching Terrence, and telling him he can do better. He crumples up his test, puts it in the wastepaper basket, and kicks it across the room. Mac waves his hands like a football referee, and they both prepare to blame the Cloud, but Mrs. Jewls has had enough of the students using the Cloud as a scapegoat for their misbehavior. She understands that it's difficult to have the Cloud of Doom hanging above their heads all the time, but that in spite of it, they need to work hard. As a result, she doubles their homework. Benjamin says it's not fair, and Mrs. Jewls has him write his name under the discipline list.

Mrs. Jewls announces that the Ultimate Test will start on Monday, and they'll take it, cloud or no cloud. She marks out Joy's B, and gives her an F minus, and has Terrence and Mac sweep the floor. For everyone else, Mrs. Jewls makes them write their name under the discipline list, save for Todd, the only kid who has been well-behaved. Rondi and Allison ask why Mrs. Jewls is being so mean, and she blames it on the Cloud. Meanwhile, the Cloud of Doom is still churning, slowly growing by the day, but not causing any havoc... not yet at least.

Consider the Paper Clip

Illustrated by Tim Heitz.

"**Consider the Paper Clip**" is the fourth chapter of *Wayside School Beneath the Cloud of Doom*.

## Synopsis

Mrs. Jewls explains the importance of paper clips to her class after getting tired of them losing their paper clips so many times.

## Plot

The chapter opens with Mrs. Jewls assigning book reports. Dana is finishing up a report based on *The Lost Giraffe*, which she thinks is her favorite book ever (even though it makes her cry). She needs a paper clip to hold it all together, but she can't find one. She asks Mrs. Jewls for a new one, and Mrs. Jewls is disappointed, telling Dana that she gave her a paper clip at the start of the year that she was supposed to hold on to. Joe, Bebe, and Calvin turn out to have lost their paper clips as well, which upsets Mrs. Jewls, who gave everyone a paper clip at the beginning of the year with the responsibility to take care of it. She looks in her desk, and notices that she only has six left. Joy additionally asks for one, which causes Mrs. Jewls to snap.

Feeling ashamed of her students, Mrs. Jewls walks to the front of the room, ranting that the kids don't realize how laborious the process of making a paper clip is. She takes one of the paper clips from her desk, observing the perfect double-loop, and how it gleams in the light. She explains that making a paper clip takes a lot of people, years of training, and hard work. First there's the wire maker, that makes wires that are not too stiff, or too wiggly. Then there's the wire polisher, that gives each paper clip its special gleam. Then, the wire cutter, that cuts the wire to exactly the right length, and finally, the master bender, that gives each paper clip its perfect double-loop.

Mrs. Jewls, however, is saddened to admit that in modern times, few kids study the art of paper clip bending, and that there are very few master benders left in the world, with there possibly being none left in ten or twenty years. Mrs. Jewls hands Dana a new paper clip, making her promise not to lose it, and Bebe and Calvin admire it. Calvin remarks he wants to be a paper clip bender when he grows up, and Mrs. Jewls smiles, never being more proud of a student.

## Characters

* Mrs. Jewls
* Dana
* Joe
* Bebe Gunn
* Calvin
* Joy

## Trivia

* Although *The Lost Giraffe* made Dana cry as she read it in the previous chapter, her book report considers it her favorite book, calling back to "A Giggle Box, a Leaky Faucet, and a Foghorn."

John (book chapter)

Illustrated by Tim Heitz

"**John**" is the seventeenth chapter of *Sideways Stories from Wayside School*.

## Synopsis

John tries to learn how to stand on his own head.

## Plot

The reader is introduced to John, a kid with a round head who is Joe's best friend and one of the smartest students in Mrs. Jewls's class. However, he is only able to read words written upside down, which is an issue as no one ever writes anything upside down. Rather than try to learn to read correctly, he simply turns his books upside-down, but Mrs. Jewls is concerned. Mrs. Jewls tells John that he can't spend the rest of his life turning his books upside down. John asks her why not, and she reminds him that he can't turn the blackboard upside down if she writes on it. Mrs. Jewls tells John that the only solution to that problem is to stand on his head, but John is concerned, because every time he has tried before he has always fallen over because his head is too round.

It's mentioned that Joe can stand on John's head, and that every time John fell over, Joe would stand on his head. Mrs. Jewls points out that if Joe can stand on John's head then he can stand on his own head, so she has Joe try to stand on his head and find his center of balance. John falls over, and Mrs. Jewls tries to figure out how else she can help. She has Joe get a pillow, and has Calvin and Nancy help by propping John up at his sides. Eventually, it works. John finds his center of balance and can stand on his head for a minute, but then he falls over and hits the ground hard. However, when he gets up, he realizes that he's able to read correctly by looking at the blackboard and assumes that the impact from that fall caused his brain to flip over. Mrs. Jewls is glad, and has John put the pillow under Mrs. Jewls's desk and grab a Tootsie Roll Pop from the can on top. Instead of putting the pillow underneath the desk, John puts the pillow on top, and instead of looking on top of the desk for a Tootsie Roll Pop, John looks underneath it. This could mean that even though John can now read right-side up, he now sees the rest of the world as upside-down.

## Characters

* John
* Joe
* Mrs. Jewls
* Mac (as Nancy)
* Calvin

## Trivia

* This is the first time text is printed upside down in a *Wayside School* book.
	+ Digital versions of the book, however, feature this text right-side up.
	+ When right-side up, the text reads: "Hey, look at me. Look at me, I'm up. I'm really up. I'm standing on my head. I found my center of balance. It's beautiful. I can read the blackboard! Hey, Calvin, bring me a book, and you don't have to turn it upside down. Ha Ha. Hey, who, aaaaaahhhh...".
	+ Additionally, the book that John is reading in the illustration by Tim Heitz is titled "Normal Stories from a Normal School".

Séquence de Combat

## La Séquence de Combat

Ceci est la vue plus schématisée de cette étape d'un combat, pour voir de meilleures explications: Le Système de Combat

### Séquence pour les attaques au Corps a Corps

#### Étape 1:

Le joueur annonce son attaque. En fonction de ce qu'il dit, se sera de la dexterité ou de la force requise pour le jet de l'Étape 6. En fonction de la volonté du MJ, cette action peut être dite facile, difficile, trés facile ou trés difficile, plus de détails ici. Il décide aussi si l'attaque est une attaque oséé ou pas, le résultat de l'étape 5 et de l'étape 6 va en être modifiée.

#### Étape 2:

Le joueur annonce si il veux utiliser la stat bonus de son arme.

#### Étape 3:

Le MJ décide si un jet supplémentaire est nécéssaire.

#### Étape 4:

Si le MJ a demandé un jet supplémentaire, le joueur lance le jet du MJ. En cas d'échec, la séquence s'arrête ici.

#### Étape 5:

Si le jouer a choisi un jet de stat bonus il va lancer le jet de stat bonus, en cas de reussite il va ignorer l'Étape 8: l'esquive ou la parade. Cela prendras un demi-tour a faire. En cas de reussite de cette fonction, l'opposant ne va pas avoir d'avantage si le joueur rate son attaque pendant son deuxième demi-tour. Si l'attaque a été jugéé comme oséé, les coups critiques seront modifiés (voir la page Actions Osées). Il faut aussi lancer un certain nombre de dés si l'attaque a un avantage ou désavantage.

#### Étape 6:

Le joueur lance son jet de force ou de dexterité, il peux choisir de lancer en même temps un D6 héroïque pour augmenter le résultat de son D20. En cas d'échec, soit la séquence s'arrête ici, soit le joueur décide d'utiliser un dé héroïque. Si l'attaque a été jugéé comme oséé, les coups critiques seron modifiés (voir la page Actions Osées).

#### Étape 7:

Si l'opposant possède sa réaction, il peux essayer de faire une esquive ou une parade, sauf si le joueur a reussi son lancer de l'étape 5. Si le joueur ne peux ou veux pas faire d'esquive ou de parade passez a l'étape 9.

#### Étape 8:

L'opposant fait son jet d'esquive (agilité) ou de parade (force ou dexterité en fonction du choix de départ du joueur). En cas de reussite, la séquence s'arrête ici. Il est possible a l'opposant d'utiliser un dé héroïque pour augmenter ses chances de reussite ou de re-lancer le dé.

#### Étape 9:

Le calcul des dêgats commence ici, prennez les dêgats d'arme et ajoutez-y les degrés de reussite de l'Étape 6.

#### Étape 10:

Lancez le dé correspondant aux dêgats supplémentaires de l'arme au résultat obtenu a l'Étape 9.

#### Étape 11:

Au résultat de l'Étape 10, enlevez-y la protection d'armure et les degrés d'endurance.

#### Étape 12:

Au résultat de l'Étape 11, enlevez cette quantité au points de vie de l'opposant.
Les Dés Héroïques

Les dés héroïques sont une récompense pour les actions héroïques produites par les personnages. Ils sont sous la forme de D6 distribués aux joueurs, ils devront les donner au Maître du Jeu a l'utilisation.

Les personnages commencent avec un nombre de dés héroïques choisi par le Maître du Jeu, généralement ce sera a peu près 3. Ils peuvent être récupérés après des actions extraordinairement intelligentes, créatives, ou bien jouées au coeur de RP. C'est la façon du Maître du Jeu de récompenser le beau jeu. Il est impossible d'utiliser plus d'un dé pour la même action.

#### Ces dés peuvent être dépensés de 3 façon différentes:

- Pour utiliser le pouvoir héroïque des personnages.

Chaque personnage a un pouvoir héroïque, son utilisation coûte un dé héroique au joueur afin de pouvoir l'utiliser.

- Pour ajouter la valeur du D6 héroïqe lancé en même temps que un jet de D20.

Si un D20 pour faire un test de stat est lancé, par exemple pour voir si on arrive a grimper a un mur, a frapper un ennemi ou encore convaincre un marchand, il est possible d'ajouter le résultat du D6 héroïque qui sera lancé en même temps au D20 initialement lancé. Si le résultat de la somme des deux dés est supérieur au résultat nécéssaire pour faire une reussite critique, on considère le jet comme une reussite critique.

- Pour re-lancer un jet de D20.

Il est possible de re-lancer un D20 pour faire un test de stat si le résultat ne vous plaît pas, cépendant, si le jet est en désaventage ou aventage, il faut relancer touts les dés comme initialement prévu.
Chasseurs

Les chasseurs sont proches de la nature, ils y vivent ou y passent la
 majorité de leur temps, leur contact avec elle est trés fort, et vont
avoir d'énormes aptitudes dans leur présence, leur capacité a survivre
et leur sociabilité avec les animaux dépasse celle de toutes les autres
classes. Ils peuvent se spécialiser dans soit les pièges, soit la
fauconnerie, deux styles de chasse bien différents qui vont changer le
style de jeu du chasseur.

Avantages et Désavantages

## Les Avantages et les Désavantages

Les avantages et les désavantages sont une méchanique qui rendent des action plus ou moins faciles plus réalistes au moment du lancé de dés.

### Avantages

Quand un joueur execute une action facile ou trés facile, c'est a ce moment la qu'il faut lui donner un avantage. Celui-ci peut être normal ou grand.

L'avantage oblige le joueur a lancer un D20 supplémentaire au moment d'en lancer un premier. Pour le grand avantage, quand une action est trés facile, le joueur lance 2D20 supplémentaires au moment d'en lancer un premier. Cépendant un seul dé compte au moment de comparer le jet aux stats du joueur, il faut prendre uniquement le dé qui a fait la valeur la plus élevée pour comparer. Cela donne au joueur énormément plus de chance de reussite.

### Désavantages

Similairement a un avantage, quand un joueur execute une action difficile ou trés difficile, c'est a ce moment la qu'il faut lui donner un désavantage. Celui-ci peut être normal ou grand.

Le désavantage oblige le joueur a lancer un D20 supplémentaire au moment d'en lancer un premier. Pour le grand désavantage, quand une action est trés difficile, le joueur lance 2D20 supplémentaires au moment d'en lancer un premier. Cépendant un seul dé compte au moment de comparer le jet aux stats du joueur, il faut prendre uniquement le dé qui a fait la plus faible valeur pour comparer. Cela donne au joueur énormément moins de chance de reussite.

## Plot

Continuing from the "tattoo" problem in the previous book, this chapter brings up a passage from "Calvin's Big Decision," about Rondi and Dana complaining they got tutus instead of tattoos. Mrs. Jewls asks Miss Worm what "his foot" plus "tutu too" equals, but Miss Worm shouts "Who knows!" Mrs. Jewls tells Miss Worm not to tell the class the answer. She then asks for her to add "peppers" and "pig lips," but Miss Worm screams "I give up!" and storms out the door, slamming it behind her. Mrs. Jewls believes Miss Worm is an excellent mathematician, as it turns out her exclamations were actually the answers to the problems, but complains that she always gives away the answers. After this, it states the next problem will be the hardest one in the book.
