Ryan Coelho

**Ryan Coelho** was a contestant on Season 3.

## Background

*Retrieved from CBC.ca*

With an honours degree in Aerospace Engineering it would have been safe to assume that Ryan was on track for a successful career in that field. While he still has a passion for the subject, and two pilots licenses to boot, Ryan’s entrepreneurial spirit took him down another avenue when he noticed a missing link in the corporate world. He identified a need within organizations for guidance as they try to bridge the gap between the baby boomers who ran the companies and the millennial tech generation that were now working there or were soon to be their consumer base. Hence his career as a Millennial

Consultant, working with companies to bridge the gap between generations. In his free time, Ryan’s interests are diverse. Passionate about personal development, he has his skydiving license, loves improv and has published his first book. He was even an MC of the Toronto Pan Am Games in 2015. Ryan’s fearless pursuit of anything that piques his interest is a key reason he could become a major obstacle to his competition.

## Episode 303

As Ryan entered the stage with his competitors, a clip of him and the other five contestants, Rebecca Bromwich, Frankie Cena, Gwyneth Foster, Maria Samson, and Vanessa Vakharia, introducing themselves was shown. In this clip, Ryan stated that, to him, the show is about challenging himself to see how far he can make it. In the first challenge, the Speed Round, Ryan received an overall percentage score of 57%. As a result, Ryan finished in 2nd place and was awarded 3 overall points.

With the first challenge and the resulting double elimination out of the way, a more elaborate clip presenting Vanessa, Frankie, Ryan, and Maria in that order was shown. In this clip, Ryan revealed that he previously worked as an aerospace engineer and that, as a millennial consultant, he helps companies better understand their younger employees. In the second challenge, Broken Register, Ryan got 1 correct answer. As a result, Ryan finished in last place and was awarded 1 overall point.

In the third challenge, Colour Blender, Frankie and Ryan both got 2 correct answers, but the former answered faster on average than the latter did. As a result, Ryan finished in last place and was awarded 1 overall point. Having received a total of 5 overall points after the first three challenges, Ryan was currently in 4th place and was therefore eliminated from the competition. Jessi prompted applause for Ryan in spite of his elimination.

## Background

Melissa has physical smarts in spades, having placed first in her event at the Ontario Lumberjack Championships, and now she wants to prove that she can chop down the competition with her smarts as well. In the male-dominated profession of forestry she’s constantly battling the industry’s old-school mentality. She spends her days courting danger, using her physical intelligence as well as her knowledge of physics, to climb “danger trees” - the ones overhanging a steep decline, or dead trees - to make the community safer.

When she gets off after a physically demanding day, you can find Melissa at an open mic night in town, playing her guitar and singing. She also volunteers as an Environmental Teacher, educating different age groups about trees and the environment.

Melissa’s chosen career is hard work physically and mentally, with constant risk assessment so Canada’s Smartest Person might just be her idea of a walk in the park!

In this clip, Melissa revealed that, when she's not working, she competes in lumberjack contests. In the second challenge, Canvas Calamity, Melissa was the second contestant to present her artwork based upon the theme of **passion** and it consisted of a set of structured black and grey cells surrounded by a yellow climbing rope. Guest judge Sean O'Neill commented that he appreciated that Melissa had splashed a blotch of green paint to her artwork, which adds an abstract tone to the structured style of the painting. Sean ranked Melissa in 2nd place for her artwork and Melissa was awarded 3 overall points as a result.

In the third challenge, Extreme Layover, Melissa got 3 correct answers. As a result, Melissa finished in 3rd place and was awarded 2 overall points.

In the fourth challenge, Wobble Words, Melissa dropped her blocks once 1 minute and 45 seconds into the challenge and was forced to stop her progress 3 minutes and 10 seconds into the challenge due to Eric successfully stacking his word second at that time. As a result, Melissa finished in last place and was awarded 2 overall points. After the first four challenges, Melissa had received a total of 9 overall points. As a result, she finished in 3rd place and was eliminated from the competition. Jessi prompted applause for Melissa in spite of her elimination.

Biens démantelés

Le pillage et le recyclage constituent deux activités importantes de Bastion, et ce depuis des siècles. Dans certains lieux, recycler un objet de manière créative peut faire la fierté d'un artisan.

La Porte mémoriale de Fort Tarsis a été fabriquée avec les restes d'un arpenteur, tandis que l'Horloge de la Lune d'Antium est, dit-on, constituée des premiers javelins crées par Arden Vassa. Il est très commun d'utiliser les pièces les plus petites comme les écrous et boulons pour en faire de boutons ou des attaches.

Les pièces de javelins abandonnées dans la nature et trouvées par les lanciers peuvent être réutilisées pour fabriquer des armes ou équipements.

Haiku You

**Haiku You** is a challenge of linguistic intelligence on *Canada's Smartest Person*.

## Description

*Retrieved from CBC.ca*

Competitors are given a theme. They have to scan a collection of 99 words, and in just 30 seconds, carefully construct a poem following the five, seven, five-syllable structure of a Haiku.

Needing to selecting words with the correct number of syllables adds a logical twist. The competitors must creatively process language while keeping track of numeric relationships under pressure.

## Episode 104

Haiku You was the sole challenge of linguistic intelligence and the second challenge overall. Jeff Douglas explained to the viewers the instructions and how they could play along with the contestants on the Canada's Smartest Person app. Jessi Cruickshank explained to the contestants that the contestant in 1st place would earn 5 overall points, the contestant in 2nd place would earn 3, the contestant in 3rd place would earn 2, and the contestant in last place would earn 1. Seán Cullen served as the guest judge for this challenge.

The theme that contestants had to base their haikus upon was **happy hour**.

Victoria Leenders-Cheng was the first contestant to present her haiku and she had composed, "Tipsy confusion, Do with bawdy happiness, Love, laughter, sunshine." Seán commented that he liked it and that he pictured a clown with a beautiful face dancing around in a bawdy but tipsy manner.

George Millar was the second contestant to present his haiku and he had composed, "Hope and awesome sun, Happiness is mystery, Only you with me." Seán was wowed and commented that it was beautiful.

Mary Rose was the third contestant to present her haiku and she had composed, "Intoxicate time, With awesome hope and comfort, Tipsy goddess love." Seán enjoyed the poem and mused over her haiku's opening and closing lines.

Yahaya Baruwa was the last contestant to present his haiku and he had composed, "Intoxicate I, Thirsty low shot is so my, Only soon to be." Seán joked that "tipsy low-shot" was his nickname in high school.

After Yahaya's turn, Jessi revealed that Seán would rank each of their haikus from weakest to strongest. Seán gave his final comments to the contestants and ranked George in 1st place, Mary in 2nd place, Victoria in 3rd place, and Yahaya in last place. Therefore, George was awarded 5 overall points for finishing in 1st place, Mary was awarded 3 for finishing in 2nd place, Victoria was awarded 2 for finishing in 3rd place, and Yahaya was awarded 1 for finishing in last place.

It was revealed that Jeff himself had received a percentage score of 71% on his first attempt and a percentage score of 89% on his second attempt. However, the scores for the public are calculated differently than the scores for the contestants.

### Summary of Results

 **1st** | **George Millar** | 1st
 **2nd** | **Mary Rose** | 2nd
 **3rd** | **Victoria Leenders-Cheng** | 3rd
 **4th** | **Yahaya Baruwa** | 4th

Augures

> “
> Etant les seuls à se dévouer entièrement à la transformation des reliques des Démiurges, les augures occupent une place à part parmi les Arcanistes. De nombreuses écoles étudient les reliques pour comprendre leur impact sur les aspects géologique et écologique de notre monde. D'autres les étudient dans le but de maîtriser l'énergie qu'elles utilisent. Les historiens s'intéressent souvent aux ruines et reliques des Démiurges afin de comprendre et consigner leur rôle dans notre propre histoire. Certains érudits s'y consacrent pour mieux comprendre l'Hymne de la Création. Mais malgré tout, les mécanismes utilisés par les Démiurges restent inchangés.

> L'augure ne s'intéresse pas à la théorie, seulement à la pratique. Leurs travaux sont les plus protégés de tous et la menace qu'ils constituent pour ceux qui sont proches nous a obligé à installer nos Académies dans ces lieux si reculés. Seuls les appareils certifiés stables peuvent quitter l'Académie, et cette certification n'est que rarement octroyée.

En le tuant vous obtenez la clé qui permet de déverrouiller les deux consoles qui suppriment le champ de protection du cristal. Attention cependant, tant que la furie est présente vous ne pouvez pas détruire la brèche car elle est protégée par un bouclier qui ne tombera qu'à la mort de la furie.

## Cristal

Le cristal se situe au milieu de la zone, une fois brisé vous validez l'événement de l'atterrissage de Diana et faites apparaître le coffre contenant votre récompense. Vous ajoutez également 3 minutes au compte à rebours du Cataclysme.

1/4

## Valkyrie Diana

En récupérant la clé de la furie, vous ne débloquez pas deux mais trois consoles, l'une d'elle ne s'affiche pas sur votre carte au moment de la récupération de la clé. En effet elle est caché derrière un mur situé au Nord de l'arène, en l'activant Diana fait son apparition . La mort de la Valkyrie complétera le défi Vainqueur.

1/1

Shan't, Can't, Won't

**Shan't, Can't, Won't** is an episode with Contrary Constance as the main star.

## Plot

Constance, being Contrary Constance, really doesn't like being told what to do. So much, even her mother and Mr. Franks don't know what to do with her. Once Constance's mum makes her lunch, Constance refuses to eat it.

Everything Mr. Franks tells the class to do, Constance does the opposite, like say "Good afternoon" as opposed to "Good morning", messing up her exercise book when told to keep it tidy, and even read a story out loud when told to read quietly.

Constance even refuses to eat the tea her mum made her, refuses to do her homework, and even refuses to tidy her room. Her mum wants Constance to tidy her room because her uncle Arthur was coming over.

Upon Arthur's arrival, Constance's mum rants about Constance's contrary behavior to her brother. Arthur just laughs, because he knows just what to do about Constance's behavior: use reverse psychology.

First, Arthur tells Constance to turn the TV on, to which Constance turns it off. Next, Arthur tells Constance to avoid her tea, to which Constance promptly goes over to eat. Arthur tells Constance not to do her homework, to which Constance goes upstairs to do. Last of all, Arthur tells Constance to keep her room untidy, to which she tidies it up.

Once it's time for Constance to go to bed, her mum forbade Constance from changing into her pajamas, cleaning her teeth, and going to bed, to which Constance does all three. All this contrary behavior had worn out Constance to the point she just went straight to sleep.

Appel à l'aide

## Briefing

Un appel de détresse a été envoyé par un autre freelancer. Un arpenteur est en panne et les passagers à bord sont en danger. localisez l'arpenteur et apportez-leur votre aide.

## Prélude

Un appel de détresse arriva à Fort Tarsis. Il ne révélait pas grand-chose mis à part qu'un arpenteur rempli de passagers avait besoin d'aide, et que l'appel venait d'un freelancer. Le Freelancer trouva le Freelancer Diggs en train de lutter contre des prédateurs et l'arpenteur endommagé et immobilisé. Le Freelancer entreprit de rassembler des outils et de participer aux réparations.

## Appel à l'aide

* Répondre à l'appel de détresse
	+ Lancer l'expédition
	+ Se rendre sur le site
* Réparer l'arpenteur
	+ Récupérer 4 outils
	+ Rapporter les outils
	+ Fouiller le lieu de l'embuscade
	+ Amener l'étai à l'Arpenteur
	+ Défendre l'Arpenteur
	+ Vaincre l'Ursix
	+ Prendre des nouvelles des réparations
* Retourner voir Yarrow au fort
	+ Parler à Yarrow

## Épilogue

Diggs raconta qu'ils avaient été pris dans une embuscade de Scars qui voulaient entrer dans l'arpenteur pour s'emparer des passagers arcanistes. Le Freelancer rejoignit le site de l'embuscade en quête d'une pièce d'équipement importante et découvrit des traces de l'attaque, mais celle-ci ne correspondaient pas à la version des faits de Diggs. Gardant ses questions pour plus tard, il dut repousser l'assaut des prédateurs attirés par les corps de ceux qui étaient tombés près de l'arpenteur, et terminer les réparations au plus vite pour que l'arpenteur puisse terminer son voyage vers Fort Tarsis.

Benwick Xan

**Benwick Xan** était un crypteurs talentueux, qui estimait pouvoir piloter un javelin. Il n'en était rien, puisqu'il finit malencontreusement par tuer sa propre escouade.

## Extraits

> “
> **Benwick Xan** était l'un des crypteurs les plus talentueux de son époque, il estimait pouvoir piloter un javelin en faisant fi de sa conscience augmentée. Si ses premiers essais étaient encourageants, les choses se compliquaient dès qu'il devait affronter une réelle menace. Il embaucha un freelancer pour l'escorter dans la nature. Ils furent rapidement attaqués par des skorpions. Au coeur du combat, Benwick n'arrivait plus à se concentrer. Tandis que l'une des bêtes l'attaquait, son attention fut attirée par autre chose : un sursaut d'énergie des Démiurges à l'est, des signaux détresse arcanistes, une augmentation de l'humidité de l'air suite à une récente pluie, et des dizaines d'autres choses qui ne lui étaient d'aucun secours dans la situation immédiate. Il tenta de s'envoler, mais activa accidentellement son canon. Il essaya de tirer, mais se retrouva à frapper le rocher le plus proche. Il avait perdu tout contrôle. Ironie du sort, c'est lui, et non les skorpions, qui finirent par tuer son escorte.

## Extraits

> “
> Ce que l'on remarque surtout dans cette forêt, ce sont ces statues au regard féroce d'une bête inconnue, réminiscences du "molosse" de la Vallée de l'Honneur, qui avait pour mission d'effrayer la faune pour la maintenir à bonne distance de la ville. Installées le long de toutes les routes d'arpenteurs principales dans la zone de Fort Tarsis, ces statues sont surnommées les "anzu souriants". Cette bête a-t-elle réellement existé? C'est en tout cas ce que pensent certains arcanistes spécialisés dans les anzu antiques.

> Les anciens arcanistes anzu pensent que ce lac abrite une sorte de créature. Les passages sous-marins du lac conduisent au cénote d'Anshar ; il est donc possible que cette créature ait un lien avec ce qui s'y est passé. S'il s'agit bien d'une sorte d'anzu, cela expliquerait bien des histoires des environs. Peut-être que le Veilleur des Marais, l'anzu Ézurite, et la mystérieuse ombre qui est apparue à Anshar ne font qu'un.

On pense qu'il s'agissait d'un lieu de culte anzu. Cette structure a été peinte dans de nombreuses grottes, et de la lumière émane de son centre. Est-ce une ruine ou une relique? Les arcanistes des anzu antiques penchent pour la seconde option.
