**Phonty-Phonograph**, also called **Phonty** for short, is a character exclusive to the Language Level of *Advanced Education with Viktor Strobovski*.

## Appearance

Phonty is a phonograph-shaped Rozital with a yellow speaker and a brown machinery box. His legs are grey and curved, ending in claws. Initially, there is a pink blanket covering his legs, which is covered with hearts.

His Christmas costume consists only of a white headband with white and pink cat ears.

MrDrNose has said that he wants to remake Phonty's design a second time to make him look more like a Rozital.

## Backstory

Phonty was built by Diefthyntis as an experiment/artistic project, and did not have any intended function within the Panacea PAP Station. Somehow, he was "captured" and taken to the Infinity School, where he has lived since. He has expressed that he wants to get back to the Station, as he considers it his true home.

## Abilities

* **Sentience:** Despite being a robot, Phonty is fully sentient due to the life crystals embedded into his core.
* **Shockwave Generation:** Phonty can emit amplitudes on the shockwave level from his horn. These are so loud that they are capable of causing anybody nearby to explode.
* **Powerful Strength:** Phonty is capable of effortlessly blasting school infrastructure, including concrete and metal. It's possible that he does this by emitting shockwaves.
* **Echolocation:** Since he has no eyes, Phonty uses echolocation to find and track Angell.
* **Drill:** Phonty has a drill-like appendage at the end of his arms. He has not used this ability in-game yet.

## Behaviour

Phonty plays a similar role as Mr. Mix does in the Math Level, although much less tedious and time-consuming.

When the Language level starts, Phonty will be sitting idle in the middle of the art room, blaring his soundtrack across the room. Angell needs to regularly rewind him in order to make sure he doesn't finish playing his soundtrack. This can be done by going up to him and interacting with him. Similar to using a fortune cookie, there will be a screen overlay, but this time showing Phonty's record with a needle on it. The needle shows how close Phonty's soundtrack is to finishing; it will slowly move towards the center as it continues to play. The disc can be rewound by dragging it, which slowly brings the soundtrack back to the beginning and moves the needle away from the center.

Once Phonty's soundtrack finishes playing (i.e. when the needle reaches the red section in the center of the record), his blanket will fall off and he will begin pursuing the protagonist at a speed slightly faster than the protagonist's walk speed, similar to Mr. Mix. However, he will also bust down any doors he comes into contact with. In recent updates, such as 0.1.3 Experimental, he will also break down the wall around the door as well as the door itself. At this point, it is almost impossible to win, since Angell has to constantly be running away from him, and if she reaches a dead end such as a classroom or supply room it is very difficult to get around him. If he reaches the protagonist during pursuit, he will bowl the protagonist straight over and end the game.

### Christmas Curse DLC

剧透警告*这篇文章或部分内容可能会包含某些剧透。为了保证更好的游戏体验，阅读时请注意。*
In the Christmas Curse DLC, Phonty will sit on a pedestal bench in the Dining Room/Cafeteria with the other characters, where he will blare out his soundtrack as usual. He won't be able to be interacted with, and since sanity is removed in the CC DLC, going up to him won't drain any sanity. Once Erie goes to the table next to him, either when she's finished placing and decorating all of the Christmas trees/pines or when she's "offended", Phonty will point upward towards her, with lots of floating pink hearts surrounding him. Once Viktor has gathered everyone at the cafeteria, he will stop playing his song, but he will keep looking at Erie.

If the staff manage to stay at the table without the Cursed Ending occurring, once Viktor gets the presents, Phonty will blare another song out.

If you "offend" Erie while she is next to Phonty, he will drop his headband and emerge, causing Erie to panic in his direction telling him to calm down, and he will chase the protagonist with lots of floating red angry faces surrounding him, chasing them until he reaches them and bowls them over, leaving them to die while Erie questions his decisions and Viktor exclaims how much of a stupid idiot he is, triggering a Bad Ending (similar to a normal Game Over).
