Bullworth Academy

School Information

The school is located within the South region of South America. According to some students, it has a reputation of being one of the toughest and worst schools that the government has. The school consists of nine main buildings: the Boys' Dorm, the Girls' Dorm, the main building, the library, the auto repair shop, Harrington House, the gym, the Jocks Clubhouse and the Observatory. Other buildings exist too. The school has 600 students, not including the Prefects. At the end of the game. It is dominated by four cliques: the Nerds, Preppies, Greasers, and Jocks. The fifth clique, the Bullies, have no real interest in the pecking order and often do as they like. There are also a number of Non-Clique Students as well as the four prefects and the faculty. The school's campus provides the backdrop to the early goings on during the adventure but features less often as the adventure progresses.

Curriculum

The school also has a football field and provides at least twelve classes: Art, Biology, Chemistry, English, Geography, Gym, History, Home Economics, Math, Music, Photography, and Shop. During the adventure, only Art, Chemistry, English, and Gym, are available at the start, along with Biology and Music later. Geography, Math and Shop become unlocked at the beginning of the second week, and Photography first requires {{user}} to earn a camera. The Bullworth athletics program is a large feature of the school. It advertises soccer, wrestling, boxing, dodgeball, "and more", but its crown jewel is football and its team the Bullworth Bullhorns. The campus hosts a football field, a full size gymnasium with a wooden basketball court, and an out-of-use swimming pool. Classes follow a Class schedule.

Campus Layout

Bullworth Academy's campus takes up roughly 16% of the town of Bullworth. It is located in the southern central section. Blue Skies Industrial Park is located to its east, and the bay below Old Bullworth Vale to its west. The Boys' Dorm and Girls' Dorm are the two northernmost buildings, located near one of the school gates. The main school building is the largest, with the Parking Lot and Auto Shop to the west and the Library to the east. South of the main building is a courtyard with the fountain. A statue of the School Mascot stands in the middle of the fountain. Harrington House is east of the fountain, and the Auto Shop and garages, which cover a lot of area, can be reached from the west. This area is where students from opposing cliques most often encounter each other, and Dr. Crabblesnitch's office has a window overlooking it. Further south is the Gymnasium and the Football Field. The football field borders the run-down Observatory and a rural area with several passages through to Blue Skies Industrial Park.

Cliques Data: Nerds

Leader:Earnest Jones 2nd in Command:Melvin O'Connor Main turf: The Library Other hangouts: Observatory Dragon's Wing Comics Fighting style: Slaps, shoves Weapons used: Stink bombs, Bottle rocket launchers, Spud guns, Firecrackers. Arch-Rival: Jocks and Bullies Hierarchy: Earnest Jones leads the Nerds and according to Pete, “runs the clique with a rod of iron”. The main story implies there is no second in command. However, game data files, the game strategy guide and some pieces of dialogue suggest that Melvin O'Connor fills this role. The Nerds are at the very bottom of the clique hierarchy, and may be bullied by any member of any other clique. They are generally friendly with the Non-Clique Students, but may harass and occasionally bully them when they go near the library and occasionally elsewhere. Description: All Nerds wear school uniforms in kelly green, the Astronomy Club colors. All the boys wear either vests or sweaters and school slacks or jeans. Girls wears a green dress and white blouse. They all wear glasses, have bad posture, and are either overweight or underweight. Their glasses can be knocked off if they are punched a few times, much like the hats that some of the Jocks wear. The clique hobby is a game called Grottos and Gremlins. They're weak fighters, but are responsible for inventing most of the weapons found around campus. Clique information: They are stereotypical nerds who usually hangout at the the Library, or at the Dragon's Wing Comics book store, but they can also be found around campus. They claim the Observatory as a hideout, but are rarely found there, perhaps because of its proximity to the Football Field. They are the smartest clique on campus, and are the only clique to regularly attend class. However, most of them state in dialogue that they cut Gym class, and several advocate getting rid of all nonacademic subjects.

Nerds position and fighting style

The Nerds are the weakest clique in the school. They are sworn enemies of the Jocks, they are also rivals with the Bullies due to the fact they are weaker than them and are tormented and beaten constantly by both cliques. The Preppies and Greasers will also torment them, but not to the extent of the Bullies and Jocks. On rare occasions, the Nerds will pick on the Non-Clique Students, and they will attack the Jocks or Bullies if they are near the library. The Nerds are poor at fighting, but they make use of most of the same weapons Jimmy does; the bottle rocket launcher, the spud gun, firecrackers and stink bombs. They're described as "sneaky bastards" and "not as harmless as they look" by Gary Smith, an expelled student from Bullworth Academy.

Cliques Data: Preppies

Leader:Derby Harrington 2nd in Command:Bif Taylor Main turf: Harrington House Other hangouts: Old Bullworth Vale Fighting style: Boxing and exclusively punch attacks. Weapons used: Eggs, Cricket bats Arch-Rival: Greasers Hierarchy: Derby Harrington leads the clique, and Bif Taylor is his bodyguard and second-in-command. There seems to be no real hierarchy below that level, although Tad Spencer is seen giving orders in two missions and has aspirations to take over the clique. The Preppies are the third clique in the hierarchy order, above the Nerds and Bullies, but below the Greasers and Jocks. Description: The Preppies are very well-dressed, and can be identified by their Aquaberry vests—and by their sweaters in winter—and usually parted hair. The word "Aquaberry" is an amalgation of two real-life British clothing brands, Aquascutum and Burberry. Earlier screenshots showed that the Preppies wore royal blue sweaters vest rather than the diamond-patterned Aquaberry sweaters.

Preppies's backstory and weapons:

All of the Preppies are rich and, with the exception of Tad, most of them are Old Money. They are also snobbish, looking down on anyone below their class, and have a sworn rivalry with the Greasers for this reason. In an attempt to show their superiority, many of them speak in pretentious accents like Transatlantic and faux upper-class English. A running joke throughout the adventure is that the Preppies families have a long history of inbreeding, and as a result tend to have physical and mental deformities. For example, Derby is betrothed to Pinky despite the fact they are cousins and Pinky mentions that arranged marriages were between brother and sister until it was made illegal. Tad confesses that he has webbed toes, but "only on one foot", and that he has a brother in the Asylum. The Preppies hang out at Harrington House on school campus, and some can be found in the library. A single Prep can rarely be found at the Auto Repair Shop tagging crude remarks about the Greasers, who will attack if they see a Prep in their territory but they outnumber the Lone Prep and knock him out. The male Preppies can only be seen in the Boys' Dorm if the fire alarm is pulled. Outside of campus they can be found around Old Bullworth Vale, and at the Boxing Gym as well as a single member in New Coventry egging buildings but the most common in doing this is Gord. Their main weapon of choice is eggs, and many will drop them if knocked out. Some also occasionally use Cricket Bats.

Cliques Data: Greasers

Leader: Johnny Vincent 2nd in Command: Peanut Romano Main turf: Auto Shop Other hangouts: New Coventry, Oil Spill Gas Station Fighting style: Street Dutch Kickboxing so they will exclusively use strikes, no grabs or holds. Weapons used: Slingshots, Wooden planks Arch-Rival: Preppies Hierarchy: Johnny Vincent is the leader of the clique. Peanut Romano is Johnny's best friend and 2nd in command, although compared to other 2nd in commands he receives little respect from other cliques. Although he claims to have no particular standing in the clique, Norton Williams can be seen giving orders when Johnny is absent. It is also possible due to his regular mission participation and his speaking time that Vance Medici has a higher up position in the clique. The Greasers are second in the school clique hierarchy, behind only the Jocks. Description: The Greasers dress in leather or denim jackets over dull blue school sweaters, along with school slacks or jeans. They also grease their hair with pomade or oil, hence the clique name. In general they look like 1950s-style throwbacks. They wear dark blue shirts with brown shorts during gym class. Other than Johnny and Norton, their last names suggest that they're Italian-Americans. They appear at the Auto Repair Shop on the campus and in the run-down New Coventry area and the Oil Spill gas station. They are enemies of the Preppies and Townies and will also attack the Non-Clique Students or Nerds if seen on their turf, and can also be seen tormenting the townsfolk. Generally, most greasers come from a more poor, working-class background - especially since most greasers originate from New Coventry - the run-down ghetto of Bullworth. The class differences are primarily responsible for their rivalry with the Preppies.

Cliques Data: Jocks

Leader: Ted Thompson 2nd in Command: Damon West Main turf: Football Field Other hangouts: Gymnasium Fighting style: Tackles, pro wrestling, power-based brawling, fast wide swings and brute-force in general Weapons used: baseball bats Arch-Rival: Nerds Hierarchy: Ted Thompson is the clique leader and captain of the Football team. Damon West is his bodyguard and second-in-command; he has aspirations to lead the clique himself, but only acts like a boss when Ted isn't around. No other jocks are seen to demonstrate authority at any time. The Jocks are at the top of the clique hierarchy at school. Description: The Jocks are the physically largest clique in the game - Damon, Juri Karamazov, Casey Harris, and Luis Luna are all much bigger than the average student. The clique outfit involves wearing athletic clothes over the standard Bullworth slacks, and athletic shoes instead of dress shoes. Jocks who have earned Letterman jackets usually wear those, while those who haven't wear team sweaters or T-shirts. The only female jock, Mandy Wiles, is rarely seen out of her cheerleader's uniform. Fighting Style and State: The Jocks are at the top of the school's pecking order and, according to Gary Smith, run the school. They are the most athletic students at the school and consider the gym and football field as their turf. All the male members are on the school's football team, the Bullworth Bullhorns. They are sworn enemies of the Nerds, and attack them on sight, if a Nerd is near the gym. They are the only clique with two black members, Damon West and Bo Jackson. The Jocks are rarely seen off campus aside from The Carnival. The Jocks are the strongest of the four main cliques in the school. What they lack in intelligence, they more than make up for in raw power and fighting ability.

Cliques Data: Bullies

Leader: Russell Northrop Main Hangout: Parking Lot Other Hangouts: In and Out Motel Fighting Style: Street Brawling, Street Fighting Favored Weapons: Baseball bats Rival(s): Nerds Hierarchy: Russell Northrop is the undisputed leader of the Bullies. Trent and Davis seem to have more standing in the clique than the others, but there is no official second in command. The Bullies are fourth in the clique hierarchy, above only the Nerds. Backstory: Unlike the other cliques, the Bullies have no real social status on campus. They aren't interested in the hierarchy order, and they have neither a second-in-command, a female member, a hideout, or a dodgeball team. They seem to be little more than a clique of friends who banded together under Russell and pick on everyone weaker than themselves. The Preppies, Greasers, and Jocks rarely bother the Bullies. This may be due to the lack of interest that the Bullies have in the pecking order, that the other cliques fear Russell, or both. The Bullies consider the school parking lot their turf, and are more aggressive than usual there. They also can be seen hanging inside and outside the Boys' Dorm. They wander all over campus and inside the school, picking on just about anyone everyone they encounter. Although they don't wander around town much, they hang out on the forecourt of the motel, and one of them can occasionally be found in any of the 4 parts of the town walking around or smoking against a wall. They also rarely attend class. One of them could be seen egging the library after morning classes.

Cliques Data: Townies

Leader: Edgar Munsen 2nd in Command: Omar Romero Main turf: Blue Skies Industrial Park Other hangouts: Graveyard Southern New Coventry Fighting style: Streetfighting Weapons used: Bricks, Firecrackers Hierarchy: Edgar Munsen is the leader of the Townies, and Omar Romero is expressly said to be his second in command. As the other townies get little individual focus, there's no information about the pecking order within the clique. The Townies figure into the school hierarchy, because they are Bullworth Academy students who simply wear street clothes rather than uniform. Description: The Townies wear casual clothing with the color orange usually featured prominently. Some have a distinct heavy metal or punk-like fashion influence in their outfits. Backstory: The Townies are teenagers who live in Bullworth but don't always attend to Bullworth Academy. They all have a fierce resentment for the school, students, and faculty. Most of them are juvenile delinquents of some form or other - several of them discuss crimes they've committed, and a few are implied to do drugs. They appear almost anywhere, but hang around in Blue Skies Industrial Park and in the graveyard behind the church in Old Bullworth Vale. They are almost never seen on the school campus, with the exception of the Dodgeball games and when there is Complete Mayhem and everyone is fighting. Some of the Townies are former Bullworth Academy students.
