Has there been a riddle thread on this forum? If not, it would be cool to have one.

I could of course start of with a riddle, but would like to see if people are interested first.

riddle? I like riddles.

I'll try it.

I'll start off with one, and we'll see what happens.

I move through Spira
you can find me here and there
I am no Maester or summoner
but what I have to offer will be of use anywhere

my guess is Oaka (i forgot how to spell his name)

You're right!

Your turn, Tom2toes!

damn i wasnt expecting to have to come up with one, this could take some time

Ok here goes

Evil falls before me,
i travel far but never tire,
i am a figure of love,
Lightning is my enemy.

iv never written a riddle before so sorry if it sucks or doesnt make sense

Hm, good one. Wild guess - Rikku?

i thought you might guess that but no

i thought rikku too, but she's not exactly a figure of love...

this is a wild guess, but is it lord Gandaf, the one who built the towers on the thunder plains?

no. to be honest im not sure if i made it too difficult cos i dont know how to judge things like that, i asked my friend and he said when he knew the answer it made sense so ill have to hope it's coherent enough to be soluble

is it the brotherhood sword?

BINGO!!!

Great! You're up, Auron Ghost! :)

oh joy, this may take a while...

here goes:

i refuse to go where im sent
yet i still roam spira
i may at first be helpful
i may at first be kind
yet you still fight me
your aeons may save you
but i hold a secret
i may help you fill three slots
yet you must defeat me
to hold the power i can summon

this is my first riddle also so i might have made it too hard/easy or nonsensical, if so sorry

Belgemine

yup, your turn

We are many,
we can be seen all over spira,
we are older than spira itself,
U gotta be quick!

im not too happy with this one. tbh i was dissapointed you got my last one so fast, i dont even now if this one will last that long.

you shouldnt be disappointed, yours was hard as i guess most people, incuding me was thinking characters, i only guessed. If anyone should be disappointed, it should be me, it lasted ten minutes! i had just finished editing the note at the bottom when you posted the answer!

anyway, i might be confusing it with X-2, but is the answer the cactuars?

pyreflies?

aurons ghost was right. i knew that one was too obvious, there wasnt anything misleading about it like the last one, i was afraid it might have been too abiguous about it, you could have said the same about tonberries or chocobos.

really? after i saw tabris answer, i thought he was right.

anyway:
i need not gil to fight
i need no statue
i will kill thine enemy
with my power alone
i need not worship
i need not love
i will kill thine enemy
with my power alone
you may foresake all others
gifts are meaningless compared to me
i will kill thine enemy
or my owner shall die trying

its not daguerro or whatever yojimbos dog is called is it?

nope

One of the other "things" on/under Aneima.

i've just been out to kareoke so im pretty drunk and not in a fit state for riddling but it sounds like a weapon of some sort to me but you wouldn't be that vague about it so i'm not sure. i have a feeling that the repitition has something to do with it but thats probably bollocks.

(P.S I might be drunk but i still spell better than most)

Is it Tidus weapon with the Counter-Attack ability?

your getting closer with the weapon suggestions, but you're all wrong so far

just out of curiosity, is there going to be a time limit for these riddles, or will they just go on indefinitely until someone posts a correct answer?

Its one of Lulu's weapons...

must be the onion knight then if thats true

still nope

possibly the MURASAME (sp?)

nope

well, I'm out of ideas.

Aurons Ghost: I believe you can through out a hint or two if noone gets it.

very well then, its related to an earlier riddle

Tidus is my geuss.

nope, to give another hint, its a weapon, but not one the party use in the game, but is used against the party

I was going to say Anima, but you get to use Anima in the game and I dont think it ever gets used against you. Thats a hard one. *thinks*

~anymore hints?

hmm, perhaps machina.

Shinryudans closest, it was the machina weapon that chappu used instead of the brotherhood sword wakka gave him, so yeah machina or machina weapon or anything like that

your turn Shinryudan...

I was going to say Anima, but you get to use Anima in the game and I dont think it ever gets used against you. Thats a hard one. *thinks*



Actually, you do have to fight Anima. When you kill Seymour. So that was a good guess. It's what I was thinking, too.

but if you thinak about it, anima's an aeon, so it has a fayth statue, and i said it has no statue

I know its only been a day but for future reference what if someone solves the riddle and then doesn't come up with a new one, who continues with the riddling?

i suppose then that after a day or so, its a free post to whoever can comes first, so if you've got another one, by all means, post it, or wait a bit in case shinryudan does, it up to you, but really, we should ask tabris about the rules since it was her idea in the first place

Hi, Aurons Ghost.

First of all, I'm a "she", not a "he". ;)

I haven't created the game myself, I saw something similar on a different forum and thought it was a fun idea. But I agree, if the person who solves the riddle doesn't come up with a new one within one or two days, anyone is free to post a riddle.

Sorry about that tabris, :), fixed it now, wont make that mistake again...

do you want to post the next one seem as though ive just done one or leave it for someone else?

No worries. Aurons Ghost. :)

Sure, I can post one. Won't be here until tomorrow for replies, though (if anyone does't get it right away, that is):

In a world filled with sorrow and fears
I am able to wash away your tears
For some moments of fun and cheer
I will let you forget that Sin's near

What am I?

Are you blitzball?

Yes, I am. Easy one, ey?

i didnt have a clue when i first read it, but after i gave it a couple minutes of thought, yeah :)

anyway, here's mine:

i am no fruit or vegetable
yet i make grown men cry
for i am the most powerful of my brethren
and can only jump waist high

I thought I knew my Ff, but that's a toughie.

Eep, tell me the answer? I can't think >.<

NO, you'll have to wait :)

NOOOO, I won't be able to sleep. I was thinking of a Squatter Monkey that hangs around the temples, but it's a wild guess..?

no it isnt...

Thought not. As you see, I'm not exactly THAT good at riddles.
Someone else should have a go at it....

Thats the general idea yeah, but im getting concerned that i'v been a bit vague for this one

I agree a tad. Please just tell me what it is to put my mind to rest.

Onion Knight

must be the onion knight then if thats true

This was my answer to an earlier question but i assume you didnt spot it cos why would you ask a riddle when the answer is already somewhere on the board

Yeah thats right boba_medina2000, and Tom2toes, i did notice it, but since its on another page as an answer to another riddle, i felt there was no harm in using it as the answer

anyway, boba_medina2000, you're up

This was my answer to an earlier question but i assume you didnt spot it cos why would you ask a riddle when the answer is already somewhere on the board
:rolleyes:


Ok,,,,

I bring harder than normal enemys.
I'm really hard to get around.
I was once small and hairy.

What am I?

hmmm... It's the first like that confuses me. I'm not sure it'as a proper sentence... though, that could just be me since I'm a grammar freak. >.<

My guess is... Sin. Jecht was small and hairy, right? ^_^

No WAY off...

Ooh, that's a tad tough. lmao, probably to you it isn't though >.<

Ooh, that's a tad tough. lmao, probably to you it isn't though >.<

Maybe, but anyone who wanted more power in the game should have no trouble with this...

PS That was a hint.

The Monster Arena? It's the only thing that I could think of.

No WAY WAY WAY off.

Once small and hairy?! Er... could you give us another hint...?

Once small and hairy?! Er... could you give us another hint...?

I shouldn't but OK.

"stronger" refers to one character...

Is it Kimahri
I guess he was once small and hairy
You can't get around him at the beginnin of the game with tidus
And on the sphere grid you can take aurons route

No but it has to do with him...

Also cool Ava&Sig

Does it have something to do with one of the Ronsos that broke his horn?

Nope....
Jeeze, i didnt think it would be this hard for you people.

i tought seymour
but i guess he wasn't hairy...
anyway, just a try.

is it the Quactars???
or something about Kimahris Spirit Lance...

is it the Quactars???
or something about Kimahris Spirit Lance...

No
And Yes

Is it PERHAPS the the red butterflies that PRESUMABLY start off as HAIRY little catterpillars, are really hard to run around when you're after the blue ones and cause a battle if you do run into them?

YUYEVON Is My Guess

Is it PERHAPS the the red butterflies that PRESUMABLY start off as HAIRY little catterpillars, are really hard to run around when you're after the blue ones and cause a battle if you do run into them?

YU YEVON

No Thats No What I Am Thinking

Sin?

Jecht is almost too obvious really, but thats my guess

im sure someone just beat me to it last time aswell :(

Jecht Was Right Your Turn Tom2toes


Can't You Think Of One Tom2toes If You Cant post Back Saying You Cant

Tom2toes You Got It It Is Your Turn If You Don't Post Back With A Riddle

I was once hurt by one of Braska Guardian

Thats a Shoopuf

Correct

Your Turn

OK...

I have long since been abandoned
Some say i end with a J
While others say i start with a P

Where am I?

Not sure about the "P" part, but the rest sounds an awful lot like...

Baaj Temple?

Yeah, the P part is if you write Baaj in Al Bhed, Pyyz, (even though Baaj is a proper noun and would never be said in Al Bhed)

Your turn Ecootoo

Your turn Ecootoo

Yeah come on Ecootoo! You know what i really hate it when someone answers the riddle and then just takes ages to come up with a new one :-P

Like you huh?

HUH YOU LIKE
THERE ARE TWO SIGHT BUT ONE WORK
POWER INCREASE IN IT NO ONE CAN STAND
OWER IS BLUE HAIR AND VILAIN
I AM...?

Anima?

ok my turn
i play a sport that requirs a ball
i protect as a gardian
speak with a fellow gardian from time to time
ihave a child with this gardian
its lame but whatever

Is that Wakka? (By the way - wasn't I supposed to take the next one, if grandiaIII said that I had the right answer?)

yes you were waka must be right so your turn tabris

Yes Tabris your turn

My attacks are bearable
2/3 of the time
Otherwise, be well armoured
or game over in me you'll find

I am to be found inside the armour
seeking eternal repose

Jecht?

Iron Giant

just a guess

Yu Yevon??
with the "inside the armour" thingy...
just a guess.

Well i think Jecht is right, but in case it isn't, I guess Seymour.

ITs deffinatly Jhet's forms as Seymore is weak although it could be yu yevon, no it cant be yu yevon as you have auto life.

OR is it the actual Sin?

Nah not actual sin cause the riddle said inside the shell, and when you fight sin it's outside of the shell, plus sin is weak :P Dunno what that 2/3 of the time means though.

None of the guesses so far is the right one - except that it is something located inside of Sin. (Oh, and the 2/3-part is quite vital for finding out who/what the riddle is).

Jechts Sword

Just a guess

That Fiend that has an atatck where he opens his heart?
Or an Iron Giant?

Nope. None of the above.

Admantoise?

Well inside sin all of the enemies' attack are bearable 100% of the time cause my stats are almost maxed, but i assume you mean for people entering there weak.

I guess King Behemoth (i think it's called that, the thing that stands up and casts meteor when it dies.)

I KNOW its thjose toweres that help jhet when you fight him i dont know what there called though. 2/3 means two towers 3 is jhet

I KNOW its thjose toweres that help jhet when you fight him i dont know what there called though. 2/3 means two towers 3 is jhet

OOps sorry double post!

Jecht not Jhet...seriously it's not hard to spell right :P

And i doubt it's those towers because their attacks are always bearable.

i have difficultimaties in spellon i cant spel rite :( :)

Is it Braska's Final Aeon? Well, technically, you might as well say that it's Jecht. Anyway, my guess is Braska's Final Aeon.

It's not Braska's Final Aeon or King Behemut.

Hint: It's a fiend (not a major boss), and your HP/MP-stats won't really matter to 1/3 of this boss' attack.

Is it that fiend with the mortar cannon, or is it the marlboro fiend that you fight inside Sin?

Well if you have the Ribbon ability on your armour then status effects aren't an issue either. Maybe this is some devastating spell that inflicts damage based on HP.

What about the land worm?(i think thats inside sin)

I thought that was one of the Original Creations of the Monster Arena. I could be wrong though.

Could it be the ghost fiend that uses Doom inside Sin?

Difficult riddle this one...I'll guess One Eye.

I am sorry for my late reply - yes, it is Great Malboro inside Sin. :-)

Who's go is it

I'm guessing that it's my turn since I'm the one who guessed Great Malboro. I'm a bit new at making riddles, but here goes:

Of Yuna's guardians,
I'm the oldest living male member
But of my parents,
There is nothing I remember
Who am I?

Wakka?

Kimahri

tidus

Auron?

i take it you haven't completed ffx so you may want to stay away from this thread for a few days so not to get to big a spoiler

I figured that at least one person might say Auron, but I knew it'd be pretty easy.

But, Auron's Ghost was correct. Your turn.

OK

I am neither one nor three, but in between
The Dream makes a fool of himself on me
But everyone soon forgets about me
As number three's new arrival is much grander
Than those who walk on me

Where am I?

i take it you haven't completed ffx so you may want to stay away from this thread for a few days so not to get to big a spoiler

I did complete the game, so dont jump to criticize. The stuff revealed about Auron slipped my mind. I just didnt think about it.

Well if were FFIX i'd say you were on the Hilde Garde II, but oh well...I really don't know this. The where am i part stumped me heaps...it's a place??

I'll take a stab at Zanarkand.

nope

Alrighty let's just see if i understand these lines correctly. Neither one nor three but in-between, that's two (or second)...Who's the dream? I'm guessing it's that little fayth. Everyone soon forgets about the place i suppose. And i suppose the third is much better than the people. Very confusing lol. Hopefully each line will make sense when the answer is revealed.

It will, I hope.

And your right about the first line, but the others, not so right

is it the graveyard like place in guodosalam (i think that's what it is called) it's before the thunder plains

Its not the farplane, if thats what your refering to

I believe Tidus may be The Dream. So it's somewhere where he makes a fool of himself...

Yeah...maybe Tidus. If so then it could be many places.

Jecht could be it too...he makes a fool of himself at the Moonflow, so that's my guess.

OK, the dreams been identified, but the location still isnt right

So the dream's tidus right?

How about dock number 2 at luca? Isn't that where the Besaid Aurochs land? And the goers are at dock 3 or something.

So the dream's tidus right?

How about dock number 2 at luca? Isn't that where the Besaid Aurochs land? And the goers are at dock 3 or something.
Finally, :) it is dock number 2 in luca, where tidus makes a fool of himself by getting up on some crates and shouting about how his team is the best and stuff (whether this makes him a fool I suppose is debatable, but if i remember, the party seems to think so, and so do I), and moments later Grand Maester Mika arrives at Dock 3, and everybody runs off to see him, completely forgeting dock 2.

Hope it makes sense now you know the answer.

Your turn anyway

Your turn Kie

Oh. Wow, i didn't expect to get it right lol, my guesses on how it could be dock number 2 were wrong :P

I'm not good with riddles, free turn :P

I guess I'll do the next one since Kie doesn't want to do one and nobody else is jumping up for the chance. Here goes:

I gave up my life
At the loss of this man,
And I live in land without Sin
The "dream to end all dreams"
It may not be me
But yet he is one of my kin
Who Am I?

is it Tidus's mum

Damn, that was a bit easier than I thought it would be! Yes, your turn, barretboy14.

free riddle I'm usless at making them up

Speed is our strength, meeting us is optional
Later on your way, come to our home
and we can be on your side

is it the al bhed

Is it the Qactaurs?

The Magus Sisters?

Or maybe chocobos.

Its got the Magus Sisters

But VenusOmega Has Got it First

Whoa, hey, someone make a new riddle. Or I could just post all of my really hard ones again and hope nobody remembers the answer...

Yuna's eyes.

Ugh, not another revived thread.

Rikku's eyes.

Ugh, not another revived thread.

I approve of this revival =)

Yay! Hmm....

Once I'm worthless

Umm o.O Seymour?

Umm o.O Seymour?

Nope.

Yay! Hmm....

Once I'm worthless
Twice I'm fine
Three times my strength is truly devine

Eeek, probably too easy.

The magus sisters?

Nope.

is it the ascalon and ragnorok type weapons?

No, it's not. :(

Is it the bomb creatures then?

...damn ...shit ...that is WACK!! yeah i'll guess one of the purpley bombs

I'd guess Three Stars

Is it an Ultimate weapon?

^ it's an ultimate weapon. I'm sure of it. Safer Roco hit it right on the head.

the Celestial Weapons
