Final fantasy 8 riddles

[thegirth]

wholy crap that could actually be right, i hope so, cause its the 1000th post, that would be symbolic

[Liberi_Fatali]

Is it AP? Or a pee? LOL

What the coward gets when facing his doom - A pee (because hes scared)
Comet, you're a genius. Too bad I've already guessed AP and it turned out to be wrong. But you at least win points just for sheer creativity.

[Comet]

Ah, too bad. This riddle is hard :mad:

Edit: thegirths signature is feckin hilarious lol

[thegirth]

yeah i think its a Chris Rock quote

[Rantz]

Haha, yeah, lots of bonus points for the creative answer. Neither AP nor experience is right though.

The riddle talks about feelings rather than actual items or spoils in the game.

[demondude]

Horror?

[thegirth]

REPOST:
I am what you get from a Vysage fight
What the Geezard does from morning to night
me is what you'll find in an Elnoyle room
What the coward gets when facing his doom

[Rantz]

Not horror. Not too far, however, from the meaning of the correct word in some of the lines.

[demondude]

Petrification?

[Rantz]

Nope.

[Liberi_Fatali]

Wrong guesses thus far: death, Exeter, death in space, death in blue cheese, AP, STATUS EFFECTS, heavy breathing, screaming, crying, silence, sleep, stare, sigh, laughter, anything overly abstract, bite, crawl, eat dirt, the ground, teabagging, MAGIC, dirtnap, disappear, creep, slide, drag, bobbing and shaking, VERBS (except for the second line), sliver, dance, victory, ozostomia, dying, experience, a pee, horror, and petrification.


Is the answer a gerund or any other type of derivative or a synonym of any of the previous guesses? Also, does the answer involve verbal irony, i.e., homophony?

[Rantz]

The answer could be said to be another form of one of the previously guessed words, yes. The different lines does result in the same word, spelled exactly the same.

[demondude]

Something to do with crawling on the floor almost dead?

[Rantz]

The answer, and the answer to one of the lines, has something to do with a kind of crawling. Death has no particular relevance to the riddle.

[demondude]

Sleeping? xD

[Rantz]

Nope. :p

[BG-57]

Not quite sure how a form of crawling relates to all the lines.

Groveling?

[Rantz]

Well, it's a word that has several possible meanings. Try some kind of synonym for crawl.

The word has pretty much been said already, but with the wrong ending (which is important enough to falsify it).

[BG-57]

Creeps? With an S ending?

They're monsters in the game as well as a synonym for crawling and a feeling of foreboding.

[Rantz]

Correct!

I am what you get from a Vysage fight -> If you'd encounter a vysage for real, the creeps is likely what you'd get.
What the Geezard does from morning to night -> The Geezard creeps.
me is what you'll find in an Elnoyle room -> Here, creeps is a descriptive word for the Elnoyles. Elnoyle room = A room full of Elnoyles = A room full of creeps.
What the coward gets when facing his doom -> Same meaning as the first line, a coward would get the creeps when his doom is coming.

And as you say, the game element referenced (and hence the answer) is the enemy Creeps.

[demondude]

The Elnoyle line was a bit vague. xD But well done BG-57

[Liberi_Fatali]

Exactly what did that have to do with the number 100?

[Rantz]

100 in roman numerals is C, which is the first letter of the answer. It was a half joke hint in response to "I'd like to buy a wovel", but a valid one nonetheless.

[BG-57]

I was thinking of Creeps a lot earlier but Creep was already guessed and wrong.

Pervasive but immaterial
Heard only but one time
A question of identity
Does he want an answer?

[Rantz]

If creep was guessed as a lone guess I would probably have given it right, but it was one out of three guesses in the same post without any reasoning. I did say about that post, however, that "one of your guesses is so close I'm surprised you didn't see it". Sorry if I upset anyone.

Enough about that though. The immediate thought that strikes me is Bahamut and his questions before the fight. He doesn't show up physically before the fight, but his voice can be "heard". He questions your motives, and so your identity. The last line could be referring to that you have to choose the invisible option at the last question.

But Bahamut is too obvious, isn't he? :)

[Liberi_Fatali]

100 in roman numerals is C, which is the first letter of the answer. It was a half joke hint in response to "I'd like to buy a wovel", but a valid one nonetheless.
Wow, that was really obscure. But it was a good riddle nonetheless-- extremely easy riddles are not as fun.

BG-57... I'm thinking Diablos.

[BG-57]

But Bahamut is too obvious, isn't he? :)

Yes he is. Not Bahamut. :)


BG-57... I'm thinking Diablos.

It's not Diablos, although he is very cool. :D

[Liberi_Fatali]

Griever?

[Rantz]

Let's try something a bit less obvious then. The astronaut Rinoa passes when heading out to Adel's tomb? He says something like "Huh? Who is that?", which is a question of identity. The voice is "heard" (pervasive), although voices can't really be heard in a vacuum (immaterial) environment.

You only hear him speak once, I think, unless that's Laguna. I don't rightly remember. I guess it could be questioned if he really wants an answer, since he just keeps on going instead of trying to find out.

Good guess but no.


Griever?

You're getting warmer.

[Caveroamer]

Tiamat?

[Liberi_Fatali]

I would guess Ultimecia, but the riddle says "he," so I'm guessing young Squall at the orphanage whenever he asks Edea who grown-up Squall is. It takes up when time is all screwy, so it makes sense.

[BG-57]

It's not Tiamat or Squall.

'He' is referring to Griever.

[Rantz]

Shockwave Pulsar, then?

[BG-57]

Nope.

[Aerith's Knight]

Squall?

[Corrugo]

I'd guess Squall's ring but the whole immaterial thing wouldn't make much sense >.o

[Liberi_Fatali]

REPOST:
Pervasive but immaterial
Heard only but one time
A question of identity
Does he want an answer?

If "he" is Griever, then what is the riddle asking? Is the answer the question? My next guess would be Rinoa, because she asks Squall to name the ring.

[demondude]

So I did get Rantziens riddle right!
Damn you three guess answer. H8 U

[BG-57]

Squall?

Still not Squall.


I'd guess Squall's ring but the whole immaterial thing wouldn't make much sense >.o

It isn't the ring.


If "he" is Griever, then what is the riddle asking? Is the answer the question? My next guess would be Rinoa, because she asks Squall to name the ring.

Not Rinoa.

The answer isn't Griever, but about something related to him.

[demondude]

Going for the obvious I know but Ultimecia?

[BG-57]

Not Ultimecia.

[Corrugo]

Lion?

The Ring, Squall, Rinoa and Ultimecia are the only other ones I can think that relate to Griever

[thegirth]

perhaps the final battle against griever?

[BG-57]

Lion?

You're close.


perhaps the final battle against griever?

Also close.

Neither guess is the answer, but it does involve both.

[Corrugo]

The Ultimate GF? O.o

[BG-57]

No.

It's something you encounter at the same time as Griever.

[The Last Oath]

When you use Lion heart or a move that kills Greiver in 1 hit then he only uses Shockwave Pulsar once before dying.

[Comet]

Helix

[BG-57]

When you use Lion heart or a move that kills Greiver in 1 hit then he only uses Shockwave Pulsar once before dying.

It's still not Shockwave Pulsar.


Helix

Nope.

[thegirth]

is it just the final battle in general

[Comet]

loll...'The legendary beast' which is the song playing while you fight griever. IM RIGHT!

[BG-57]

It's a song, but a different one.

Repost:

Pervasive but immaterial
Heard only but one time
A question of identity
Does he want an answer?

[Aerith's Knight]

The song that plays in the whole identity crisis thing of cloud?

[BG-57]

That would be FFVII...this is FFVIII.

[Comet]

Maybe I'm A Lion

[BG-57]

We have a winner! :D

Your go Comet.

[Comet]

Yay! Ok, I just made it up in like 5 minutes but still...get ready:

There is a limit
Maybe caused by a presence?
Your artistic skills
In religious places

[Bart's Friend Milhouse]

Fisherman's Horizon

[Liberi_Fatali]

Odin.

[Comet]

No and no.

[Liberi_Fatali]

The battle with Adel when Rinoa is attached to her. The limit would be referring to the types of attacks you can use without killing Rinoa.

[The Last Oath]

The Centra ruins where Odin dwells

There is a limit - the time limit
Maybe caused by a presence? - stays there while odin is in that room
Your artistic skills - switching the eyes on the statue
In religious places - Centra is an ancient place blah blah blah

[Comet]

No to both.

There is a limit
Maybe caused by a presence?
Your artistic skills
In religious places

Hint: It is not a place and it is not an event

[Rantz]

Final Heaven? Being a limit break, aka "limit". And, uh, heaven is a religious place. :shifty:

[Comet]

Good guess, but no. Getting closer though.

[Rantz]

Armageddon Fist?

[thegirth]

is it My Final Heaven (not that im gonna be right just getting technical about it, but just thought i would give it a try)

[Caveroamer]

Rinoa's Angel Wing Limit Break

[Comet]

Sorry guys...all wrong!

Hint: Not a limit break

[Corrugo]

I wanna something with the Shumi Tribe quest, no idea why.

[Comet]

Nothing to do with Shumi quest.

[Takara]

The Holy spell. You can only draw 100 of it per character.

[Bart's Friend Milhouse]

Rinoa's Pinwheel?

[Comet]

Not the holy spell, and not Rinoas pinwheel

[thegirth]

does the line about artistic skills refer to drawing?

[Corrugo]

Omega Weapon? O,o

[BG-57]

Is it related to the artist in Dollet? The one that makes cards?

[Comet]

It's not Omega Weapon and it has nothing to do with cards or Dollet, but thegirth is right about the artistic line:

There is a limit
Maybe caused by a presence?
Your artistic skills - Drawing
In religious places

[Liberi_Fatali]

By drawing, I assume you mean the act of putting a marking utensil to paper and creating an image as opposed to sucking up magic?

[thegirth]

no, im sure its a play on words

[Comet]

Yeah it's a pun.

[Eiko Guy]

Something to do with the draw points on island closest to heaven or hell

[Comet]

YES!

There is a limit
Maybe caused by a presence?
Your artistic skills - Drawing
In religious places - In Island Closest To Hell And Heaven

[BG-57]

Is that the final answer or just a solved line?

[Liberi_Fatali]

Anybody for just moving on? It's been a long time.

[BG-57]

Fine by me. Want a go?

[Liberi_Fatali]

Naw, I'm not inspired right now. eiko guy was the closest to the answer, so if he wants to, he should have a turn.

[Comet]

I'm sorry guys...my computer JUST came back from the repair shop...it was completely messed up. But I'm back now. Anyway:

That wasn't the final answer, just one line help.

[Heero Yuy NWZC]

It seems that the legacy of the riddles is slowly coming to an end...that is very sad indeed. As no one has started a new riddle, and Comet's is still unsolved, shall it be continued? At least one line has been solved. XD Knowing BG I thought he'd get it by now. XP

[BG-57]

Sorry, I've been distracted with the Cid's Knight contest. :p

Hmm, it makes me think of the UFO subquest for some reason.

[Rantz]

Is it Enc-None?

[Comet]

There is a limit
Maybe caused by a presence?
Your artistic skills - Drawing
In religious places - In Island Closest To Hell And Heaven

No it's none of the above.

[Aerith's Knight]

Ultima?

Or Ultima weapon(you know, the one in the secret base)

[Caveroamer]

the Aura spell?

[Rantz]

Aura sounds likely.

[Comet]

YES CAVEROAMER IT IS AURA!

There is a limit - Aura allows you to use limit breaks
Maybe caused by a presence? - Another word for "Aura" is "Presence"
Your artistic skills - Drawing
In religious places - In Island Closest To Hell And Heaven

Your turn!

[Caveroamer]

Someone else can give it a shot.

Can't think of anything atm

[sillybuttons™]

Caveroamer Are you sure???????????

Well if no one else is gonna step up............

A twist of penance,
high and below.
An adjustment you'll get,
if in the right room you go.
The spiral of life,
where time goes so slow.
Not haste nor stop,
are the right way to go.
:mog:

[The Last Oath]

time compression?

sorry, its late and my brains not working properly

[BG-57]

The clock tower in Ultemicia's castle?

[ReloadPsi]

The Deep Sea Deposit.

[sillybuttons™]

OMG I nearly forgot the answer LOL. I had to sit and work it out:rolleyes2.

Anyhoo I remember now. ReloadPsi, BG-57, The Last Oath. Wrong, sorry. It is a place though. :mog:

[BG-57]

Clock Puzzle Room?

[sillybuttons™]

Clock Puzzle Room?

Nope.:mog:

[sillybuttons™]

Either no-one has a guess or ya all gonna let this thread die. Either way, in the interests of keeping the best (by far) riddle thread going heres a clue::mog:

Only one of your party wants to go there.

[BG-57]

Sounds like the Deep Sea Research Center (DSRC), which Zell is strangely knowledgeable about.

[The Last Oath]

Is it Deiling City in the dream world??

[The Last Oath]

Is it the room underneath garden that squall has to climb up to himself and open the big circular "spiral" thing?

[sillybuttons™]

Nope, nope and nope. :mog:

[Rantz]

The missile base?

[sillybuttons™]

Not the missile base. :mog:

I thought this would have been guessed quite quick because I give a lot away in the first line.

Repost:

[nik0tine]

I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess trabia garden. If I am right I doubt I will be around to post another riddle so someone else can go.

[sillybuttons™]

Not Trabia either.:mog:

[pAndrewh]

Is it Lunatic Pandora?

[sillybuttons™]

Nope not Lunatic Pandora either.:mog:

Edit - (Rather than a double post) Another clue Rinoa is the only one who "wants" to go there. Also all of the playable characters (including L, K and W and Edea and Seifer) have been to this place and Ward could possibly be described as wanting to be there, if only for the money, Edea for the info. I've given it away now, I must have done.

[sillybuttons™]

Right. If no one is gonna guess I'll give the answer. but please.... for the love of god... someone... keep this thread going.

Its the desert prison. I think now you know the answer, most of the lines make sense but I'll explain anyway.

A twist of penance, (Twist = shape. Penance = the repentance of sins, which you would be doing in prison)
high and below. (The prison goes above and below ground)
An adjustment you'll get, (battle meter adjustment)
if in the right room you go. (only one room you can get the battle meter adjustment in)
The spiral of life, ( Life refers to Life in prison)
where time goes so slow. (Obviously if your in prison time would drag)
Not haste nor stop,
are the right way to go.(There is a magic field in the prison where you cant use magic so, haste and stop are useless):mog:

Someone else have a go then.

[FFIX Choco Boy]

Use me, I dare you,
There be no penalty.
Use me, yellow lady,
If your magic is few.
Your wings hold me,
I never stop.
I can be better,
if only you use three.

[Rantz]

Rinoa's Angel Wing limit break?

[Tiamat3710]

Selphies limit

[demondude]

Bwah! my threads dying, I'm gonna have to spice it up somehow...

[FFIX Choco Boy]

Rantzien got it, Rinoa's limit. Your go.

[Liberi_Fatali]

Rantzien got it, Rinoa's limit. Your go.
Would you mind giving an explanation while we wait for Rantzien??

[Rantz]

If someone else wants to, they can go. Otherwise I'll post one soon. New riddle posted below.



Rantzien got it, Rinoa's limit. Your go.
Would you mind giving an explanation while we wait for Rantzien??

This is my reasoning:

Use me, I dare you,
There be no penalty. -> You don't lose spells by using it
Use me, yellow lady,
If your magic is few. -> If you only have a few spells it doesn't matter
Your wings hold me, -> "Angel wing"
I never stop. -> Stays until the end of the battle
I can be better,
if only you use three. -> If Rinoa only has three powerful spells, she will only use them and hence make the limit better.

Not sure about what "yellow lady" means.

Here's my riddle:

Left my robe and egressed, westbound
Gathered courage, then, and left ground

Now host of tricks of greatest power
Host of the outcast and half a flower

[FFIX Choco Boy]

I said "Yellow lady" as a referance to limits, only being able to use them when low on health.

I'm going to guess the queen of cards?

[Rantz]

It's not the Queen of Cards.

[Liberi_Fatali]

Edea.

[Rantz]

Not Edea.

[Cleric]

Garden? Lol I am really scrambling at a guess on this one

[Rantz]

It's not Garden. I recommend trying to pick the riddle apart, thinking aloud.

[Shiny]

Ragnarok?

[Masamunemaster]

the island closet to hell?

[Liberi_Fatali]

the island closet to hell?
I'm going to agree with Masamunemaster, but I think the Island Closest to Heaven is the other half, because of the "left ground" and "half a flower" parts.

[Heero Yuy NWZC]

Wow, this thread is still going. Sweetness. ^_^

[Rantz]

No one is right so far.

The answer is a person.

[Shiny]

Ellone?

[Rantz]

Nope! :)

[dream ending sword]

Rinoa Left my robe and egressed, westbound -these first 2 lines i have no clue Gathered courage, then, and left ground Now host of tricks of greatest power- Rinoa, inheirited sorcerressness Host of the outcast and half a flower- i seem to remember her turning a petal into a feather or something, and see above

[Rantz]

It's not Rinoa. "half a flower" is the only really abstract part of the riddle.

[Liberi_Fatali]

Squall when he acquires the Brothers. My reasoning:

Left my robe and egressed, westbound << I think this happened not long after he became a SeeD, so he stopped wearing his uniform. Deling City is to the west.
Gathered courage, then, and left ground << You don't have to go further into the Tomb of the Unknown King than the student's ID#, but if you do, you can fight the Brothers. Using float ("left ground") helps, since they use spells like Quake.

Now host of tricks of greatest power << You win the Brothers GF.
Host of the outcast and half a flower << They were outcasts, and one of them was small.

[Rantz]

Very nice reasoning, but the answer is incorrect.

The second stanza is more down to earth, it describes three things the answer is host of. The first stanza describes a series of events from the history of the answer, but "left ground" does not refer to going airborne.

Left my robe and egressed, westbound
Gathered courage, then, and left ground

Now host of tricks of greatest power
Host of the outcast and half a flower

Wrong guesses:
Queen of cards
Edea
Garden
Ragnarok
Island Closest to Heaven/Hell
Ellone
Rinoa
Squall acquiring Brothers

Hints:
The answer is a person

[sillybuttons™]

How about Edea?

Left my robe and egressed, westbound (Maternal robe perhaps and headed to Galbadia,west(ish), from Centra)

Gathered courage, then, and left ground (Planned for the future by setting up SeeD with Cid, knowing thier purpose would be to kill her, before she left)

Now host of tricks of greatest power (Now possessed by Ulty)

Host of the outcast and half a flower (Outcast = Squall and half a flower = SeeD):mog:

[Rantz]

Nope, Edea has already been guessed.

[Masamunemaster]

a moomba?

[Rantz]

Not a moomba.

[Masamunemaster]

white seeds?

[Rantz]

Nope. Remember that the answer is one person.

[Liberi_Fatali]

I'm at a loss, so I'm going to guess Laguna, because the second line reminds me of the time he finally approached Julia.

[Hyperion4444]

ochu

[FFIX Choco Boy]

Is it Doomtrain?

[Rantz]

No, not Laguna, Ochu or Doomtrain. Again, the answer is a person. The person didn't leave ground metaphorically, either. :)

[FFIX Choco Boy]

It's Adel!

[Rantz]

It's not! :p

[Liberi_Fatali]

If "left ground" isn't a metaphor or referring to becoming airborn, then does it refer to turning to the left? Are we channelling Beyonce or playing a game of Mad Gab? :confused:

...OH! This person went onto the WATER!!
Is it Nida, the guy who steered the Garden?

[Hyperion4444]

President Deling
random guess

[Momiji]

Random guess: Selphie?

[Rantz]

It's not President Deling or Selphie.


...OH! This person went onto the WATER!!
Is it Nida, the guy who steered the Garden?

It's not Nida, but yes, that is basically what "left ground" means. :)

[The Last Oath]

Selphie?

[Hyperion4444]

I doupt Selphie actually fell in the water.
We saw the robot take a plundge...
Selphie was said already

[pyrefly maiden]

Mayor Dobe?

Mayor Dobe used to be an Estharian (donning of a robe...) but he left Esthar to be the founder of Fisherman's Horizon.

Edit: half a flower = his wife Flo

[Hyperion4444]

hey, not bad at all.

[FFIX Choco Boy]

Makes sense, the host of tricks of greatest power part means his cards, and host of the outcast... I don't remember that part, haven't played through 8 in forever.

[pyrefly maiden]

FH's residents are all a bunch of "outcasts" from Esthar. If you did the Master Fisherman sidequest, he explains all about Mayor Dobe and FH's history.

[Hyperion4444]

Makes sense, the host of tricks of greatest power part means his cards, and host of the outcast... I don't remember that part, haven't played through 8 in forever.

It means that the founder of FH abandoned Esthar (outcasted by Esthar) and founded FH, away from all that technology.

wait, it's the master fisherman.

[Rantz]

Mayor Dobe is correct!

Left my robe and egressed, westbound
As an Estharian, he wore a robe, but presumably left it as he left Esthar. He went west over the transcontinental bridge.

Gathered courage, then, and left ground
Together with his comrades he founded FH, in the ocean.

Now host of tricks of greatest power
In his house, there is an Ultima draw point.

Host of the outcast and half a flower
Galbadia Garden's former headmaster, Martine, resides at Dobe's place after being shut out of GG. Dobe's wife is named Flo which is half the word 'flower'.

Your go, pyrefly maiden!

[The Last Oath]

i like the reasoning behind the last line. v.nice

[pyrefly maiden]

God I'm bad at this.



Prince on white stallion I am not
But should ever my power be sought
By ones who prove themselves worthy
I shall not hesitate to bring my hand
Down on any threats I deem necessary
Only to the fallen knight's blade I fall


>.> I think the answer's rather obvious.

[Hyperion4444]

Odin

[demondude]

Gilgamesh?

[BG-57]

Has to be Odin. Fallen Knight is a reference to Seifer. And the lines accurately describe the way Odin appears at random.

[bdon333]

Odin sounds right

[pyrefly maiden]

Yes Odin. Hyperion4444 your turn :D

[Hyperion4444]

Damn.
I don't feel like writting riddles...

I'll give it away with an easy one.

Many refer to me as a Giant, even a God.
Metal is my Armor, Black is one of my nature.
I am lethal at close range.
The holder of the Hearth of a Lion.
Can renew dreams, like in the past of ten years.
My look may not reflect my capacities.
Half the name of the god is the clue to my identity



This one's pretty easy, enjoy.

[demondude]

Umm Diablos?

[Liberi_Fatali]

Tonberry.

[Masamunemaster]

iron giant?

[Hyperion4444]

nope nope and nope
Umm I thought someone would haved guessed it on the first try..
guess not. :)
More fun for us!

It can be difficult to figure out what it is...

I'll add more clues later.

But the next time I make a riddle, I'll keep it from 4 to 5 lines and add additional lines as hint and clues instead.

[BG-57]

Catoblepas?

[FFIX Choco Boy]

Griever?

[pyrefly maiden]

Lionheart (the weapon)?

[Hyperion4444]

no no and no
hint:

Many refer to me as a Giant, even a God. (Myth)
Metal is my Armor, Black is one of my nature.
I am lethal at close range.
The holder of the Hearth of a Lion... (Connects with the next line)
Can renew dreams, like in the past of ten years. (Can be tought)
My look may not reflect my capacities.
Half the name of the god is the clue to my identity


Didn't realised it was so complicated.
:)

[BG-57]

Bahamut?

[Masamunemaster]

ultimate weapon

[Hyperion4444]

No
No
Tell me if you want me to add a hint.

[McLovin']

Minotaur brothers. Forgot the name.

[FFIX Choco Boy]

Yeah, Minotaur and Sacred are their names, but I think it sounds more like Eden, or maybe Siren, but i don't know.

[demondude]

I dunno ... Ifrit?

[Hyperion4444]

no no and no
hint:

Many refer to me as a Giant, even a God. (Myth)
Metal is my Armor, Black is one of my nature.
I am lethal at close range.
The holder of the Hearth of a Lion...
Can renew dreams, like in the past of ten years.
My look may not reflect my capacities.
Half the name of the god is the clue to my identity
Behold my might in the palm of your hand. (New)


It's not: Tonberry, Diablo, Iron Giant, Catoblepas, Greiver, Bahamut, Ultimate Weapon, Sacred, Minotaur, nor Ifrit. I'll take your first guess and it's not Eden.


There's a new obvious line up there that should help.

[BG-57]

Tiamat?

[pyrefly maiden]

Ulysses? (haha shot in the wild)

[Hyperion4444]

Nope, sorry, no cigars.

[McLovin']

The Magic Lamp with Diablo inside it but I am also thinking Solomon Ring.

[The Last Oath]

A gunblade?

[Comet]

Wendigo.

[Rantz]

A gunblade?

Sounds about right.

[pyrefly maiden]

Odin?

[Hyperion4444]

It's not Diablo with Magical Lamp nor Solomon ring.
It 's not Odin nor Wendigo.
.....

[The Last Oath]

Many refer to me as a Giant, even a God. (Myth) - The lion on the gunblade
Metal is my Armor, Black is one of my nature. - Made of metal, squall is dressed in black.. punishment is also black
I am lethal at close range. - speaks for itself
The holder of the Hearth of a Lion - Can be remodled into Lion Heart
Can renew dreams, like in the past of ten years - When it comes flying out of the sky
My look may not reflect my capacities - Revolver looks poor but can be changed into powerful weapons
Half the name of the god is the clue to my identity - Lion
Behold my might in the palm of your hand. (New) - You can hold it

Lion Heart or a gunblade

[Hyperion4444]

Many refer to me as a Giant, even a God. (Myth) - The lion on the gunblade
Metal is my Armor, Black is one of my nature. - Made of metal, squall is dressed in black.. punishment is also black
I am lethal at close range. - speaks for itself
The holder of the Hearth of a Lion - Can be remodled into Lion Heart
Can renew dreams, like in the past of ten years - When it comes flying out of the sky
My look may not reflect my capacities - Revolver looks poor but can be changed into powerful weapons
Half the name of the god is the clue to my identity - Lion
Behold my might in the palm of your hand. (New) - You can hold it

Lion Heart or a gunblade

Blue is exactly on the spot
Red is wrong
Grey's not quite it or not the anwser I was looking for
Should I accept Gunblade as an anwser?

[pyrefly maiden]

Umm Hyperion?

Many refer to me as a Giant, even a God. (Myth) - Hyperion is a Titan which is sometimes referred to as a giant

Metal is my Armor, Black is one of my nature. - the lower part is black

I am lethal at close range. - speaks for itself

The holder of the Hearth of a Lion - Not sure, hearth is associated with a place that holds fire...the fire spells Seifer cast at Squall in the beginning?

Can renew dreams, like in the past of ten years - ? His dreams to become sorceress knight is fulfilled?

My look may not reflect my capacities - Looks plainer than Squall's gunblades

Half the name of the god is the clue to my identity - not sure about this

Behold my might in the palm of your hand. (New) - You can hold it

[The Last Oath]

ooo well done, that beats mine

[Hyperion4444]

Many refer to me as a Giant, even a God. - Titans were the first Gods until the Olympians like Zeus arrived.
Metal is my Armor, Black is one of my nature. - It's Black
I am lethal at close range. - Speaks for itself
The holder of the Hearth of a Lion... - Refering to Squall
Can renew dreams, like in the past of ten years. - Could renew Seifer's dreams (because serving Ultimecia is not his true dreams), Like Laguna finding Ellone (That was a tought one, it's also were you get the WMM#1 "Lionheart", so I'm not sure if I could accept Gunblade as a General Anwser)
My look may not reflect my capacities. - It's has a Gun Handle but can't shoot bullets
Half the name of the god is the clue to my identity - Hy/ne Hyperion 1/2, G/od Gunblade 1/3
Behold my might in the palm of your hand. - You can hold it

Since the anwser was Hyperion but Gunblade somewhat fits... I'm not sure who should get the credit.
Maybe The Last Oath and PyreflyMaiden could come up with a riddle they both designed?
What do you guys think?

[pyrefly maiden]

no I relinquish my turn XD Anyways couldn't have come up with the answer without The Last Oath's analysis :D

[Hyperion4444]

It's your turn pyrefly maiden.
the last oath is passing on that one.
pyrefly?.........

[pyrefly maiden]

Ah >.< I didn't really have anything up my sleeve. Here's a simple one.



Can't win me in a normal fight
But if you do winged sandals for you!
When you see me I'm so dizzy
Collecting stuff is my hobby
Help me and I shall belong to you.

[bdon333]

is it the PuPu thing in the balamb garden crater? and/or the ufo's required for the PuPu card ?

[Hyperion4444]

Yeah, that seems right.

[pyrefly maiden]

Yep yep Pupu. bdon333 your turn.

[bdon333]

This is totally easy as i am not very good at this....but here's a try



Mystery surrounds the one that wields me
I am the hero of a century,
but only from help of the flying one
To see me will be completely random

[Hyperion4444]

I tought we already done Odin not so long ago.
It's Odin.

[FFIX Choco Boy]

No, it's Odin's Blade, can't remember what it's called atm...

[Comet]

It's Odins sword, Zantetsuken.

[Hyperion4444]

like I first tought to say the blade.

[bdon333]

sry its not odin or his blade

[Rantz]

Gilgamesh's Excalibur/Masamune?

[BG-57]

I'm going with the sword that does one point of damage.

[bdon333]

no and no....no one is even close yet...i really thought this was a easy one

[Rantz]

How about one of the UFO sightings?

[bdon333]

nope...and just to clarify since im new...the only rules are for it to be something in the game correct?

[Hyperion4444]

yeah.
Ragnarok.

[bdon333]

sry no

[Comet]

Is it Lionheart?

[bdon333]

nope..and heres a clue...its not a weapon

[Hyperion4444]

Diablo/Magical Lamp

[bdon333]

nope and heres another clue...the 2nd line is the most important...if you can figure that out...the rest should be easy

[Hyperion4444]

Squall.
sorry, I don't know.

[pyrefly maiden]

Invincible moon?

[Comet]

Laguna?

[McLovin']

Mystery surrounds the one that wields me - Edea
I am the hero of a century, - Alexander
but only from help of the flying one
To see me will be completely random

So I say Alexander but don't see how it fits the last 2 lines.

[Hyperion4444]

Laguna was my second choice.

[bdon333]

Laguna?

so close.. I'm gettn ready to give the answer... but uve nearly got it exactly

[Hyperion4444]

Ward?

[bdon333]

this thread needs to stay alive so heres the answer: THE LAGUNA CARD

Mystery surrounds the one that wields me- (Ellone wields the card and she is probably the most mysterious character in the game)

I am a hero of a century- (Using Card-Mod turns the card into 100 heroes)

but only from help of the flying one- (Card-Mod is an ability of Quezacotl)

To see me will be completely random- ("Random" rule is a default when challenging Ellone to a card game)

Comet was the closest...so its your turn Comet

[Comet]

Oh wow thanks mayn. This is my second time posting a riddle...

You may think I weigh a millenium
Identify my half with botany
Although my crime is quite common
The seekers find it amusing

[Hyperion4444]

Eden

[Comet]

Not Eden.

[Hyperion4444]

Odin.
Is it possible to add cathegories?
Like, is it a GF? And stuff like that.

[Comet]

No it's not Odin.
That would make it too easy and we dont want that. :)

[pyrefly maiden]

Uhhh Galbadia Garden?

You may think I weigh a millenium - A Garden obviously weighs a tonne or more (1000 kg)
Identify my half with botany - Garden
Although my crime is quite common - Corruption of power?
The seekers find it amusing - not sure

[Comet]

No it's not Galbadia garden, although you are half right about the first line.

You may think I weigh a millenium
Identify my half with botany
Although my crime is quite common
The seekers find it amusing

Hint: Not a magic, not a place.

[Hyperion4444]

Crystal Pillar/Lunatic Pandora

[Rantz]

I think it's Tonberry (King?), but I haven't got the reasoning all sorted out apart from the first two lines.

You may think I weigh a millenium - Ton
Identify my half with botany - Berry
Although my crime is quite common - Killing enemies? :p
The seekers find it amusing - DOINK!

Something along those lines.

[Comet]

Yes! Rantzien is right. It is Tonberry King.

You may think I weigh a millenium - (1000 kg in 1 ""Ton")
Identify my half with botany - Half of his name is Berry
Although my crime is quite common - Knife Crime
The seekers find it amusing - DOINK!

Your turn :P

[Hyperion4444]

Oh well, I tought I was close

You may think I weigh a millenium - It's pretty big
Identify my half with botany - Pillar Plants that grows and grips
Although my crime is quite common - Summoning Monsters from the Moon
The seekers find it amusing - Adel's Laught

Make your riddle Rantzien

[Rantz]

Though gassy myself, I cannot stand the wind.
I'll heal all your wounds, I'll give you the double
Just don't call the judge, man! I'll rip out my teeth for you!
My forefather Cain would have more mercy than you do.

[Hyperion4444]

Ochu.
Make your own riddle if it's right.

[Liberi_Fatali]

Elnoyle.

Ariel is my favorite Disney princess, btw.

[Rantz]

It's not Ochu or Elnoyle. :)

[DarkBahamut]

It's not Ochu or Elnoyle. :)
Pandemonia? - Wind Summon

[Comet]

Malboro?
