The Rithmatist

What the story is about.

There has been murders on young Rithmatists. Some of the best in the school in fact. All three of the murders have been off campus and now parents are pulling their kids out of the school even though all of the murders have been off campus. Even worse a Rithmatist is the murderer. Can they find out before The United Isles fall and the Tower in Nebrask destroys everyone.

Characters, Rithmatic patters, and places

The next few slides will be about characters, Rithmatic patters, and places.

Joel

Joel is not a Rithmatist but he knows a lot about it and is fascinated by it. He barely does his homework and likes to eavesdrop on Professor Finch because he is a Rithmatic Professor. Naslar took over in a duel and now Finch is a tutor and got assigned a big project on the murders and Joel, after a talk with Principle York is Finch’s research assistant.

Melody

Melody has trouble drawing Rithmatic defenses and Professor Finch is tutoring her during the summer. She is very good with lines of making. (See slide 9)

Professor Finch

He makes perfect lines except when he is dueling. That’s why he lost to Naslar who took over his position as Rithmatic defense teacher. Now he is a tutor and Principal York asked him to help with the murder.

The United Isles

The Tower has wild chalklings who try to destroy The United Isles. The United Isles say after a Rithmatist turns 17 they go to Nebrask to fight the wild chalklings for a decade. The next slide will have a picture of The United Isles.
