He just wanted to make it to the final bell, now he's managing a classroom in the apocalypse! Jax Conway is the ultimate classroom teacher turned unwilling participant in an alien school project! When Ralph comes to Earth, Conway is assimilated into a system along with a half-absent class of ne'er do wells! When trouble, and a boatload of monsters, come knocking at Roosevelt High can he do the impossible? Can he survive High School? What to Expect:- Goofy abilities that match puns to System effects- A system designed by a procrastinating Alien Senior who hopes to get a C-- A valiant teacher that only sometimes hides behind his students in combat- Full Party, managed by a classroom teacher that just wants to retire!
