FF7 riddles

[one_winged_angel]

I thought in light of the latest FF7 trivia that has been started it would be good if we involved a little more thought and slowed down the pace a bit, so I made a FF7 riddles thread, my riddle isn't very good but I'm hoping that everyone that replies can write some that are better. (don't post one 'til you answered one like the trivia thread)

I'm 100 feet tall, red, clumsy, and full of pride, what am I?

[ForeverZeroUltima]

Proud Clod, right?

Q2.) Lloyd from Legend of Dragoon looks just like me. Who am I?

[Evil Mr. Moo]

i'm thinking it is Sephiroth because of the silver hair.


I am the Mr. "T" look-a-like.

[scottwardADD]

OOH OOH OOH CLOUD... uhh whoops, I mean Barret.


For some reason everyone loves my chest. I'm all over the net in hentai.

[one_winged_angel]

HMMMM.... I WONDER, could it be Tifa???

yes it was the proud clod

I come in three forms normal,electronic(this one ain't 100% accurate) or neither positive nor negative, you can get me from a dragon, a mighty wound, or another of my kind, what am I?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Is it the Bahamut materia? That comes in three forms (Bahamut, Neo Bahamut, Bahamut ZERO) and you receive them from the Red Dragon, the Northern Crater, and the Huge Materia in Cosmo Canyon.

OK, my turn...

I'm am what you see. (It's a quote from the very beginning of the game when you first encounter this character).

[Flying Mullet]

Nanaki

Master me and your money woes will disappear.

[Iceglow]

It's Nanaki / Red XIII which ever you prefer

ok heres mine:

I am not what I seem but what I seem is what I am...

(that is answerable if you think enough)

[zacks_clone]

Jeez...Aeris,Seph or Jenova Im thinking...Nope,not Aeris...Sephiroth.Hes not an acient but he had the blood of one?

[Iceglow]

well I guess me and mullet were fighting for the same post and got in very shortly after one another...

and Zacks clone your wrong

[zacks_clone]

:: snaps fingers :: huh.alright.geez,youv come up with a good one:P

[Flying Mullet]

Is it Cloud?

[one_winged_angel]

Flying mullet your clue could be any kind of materia there is, unless the answer is just 'materia' then you have to give a better clue than that (I'm not saying it could only be a type of materia btw)

And fallen angel 666, it's not Cait Sith is it? What with the whole him being Reeve thing...

Or the temple of the ancients? What with the whole being the black materia thing...

[Flying Mullet]

I was thinkin of the 'All' materia as it sells for a boat load more than any other materia when mastered.

[one_winged_angel]

You didn't have to tell us the answer, you could have just said like, your debtful woes or something, that would give us a better clue (if it makes sense)

[SeeDRankLou]

(that is answerable if you think enough)

Jenova?

[zacks_clone]

twas what i was thinking.Cloud or the city of ancients sounds good too(iv already guessed,so im out).

[Iceglow]

so far Seedrank lou is the closest but I have thought it through and you possibly wont get it unless you think the way I do look to my custom title for a further clue

[Flying Mullet]

Vincent?

[HOOTERS]

Walrus?

[one_winged_angel]

Maybe it's something thats spellt with a certain style, vampyre, its not what it seems (it seems like vampire but its not cause it spellt different) but it seems like vampire and it is... so... probably not....

[Iceglow]

flying mullet got it in the end yes Vincent because he sleeps in a coffin and appears very vampiric but is infact only infected with the jenova cells.

also I use the Latin spelling translation for the word vampire spelt vampyre not much differrence but it was named pyre because of the innate weakness to fire

[Flying Mullet]

Okay, next riddle:

EDIT: Five levels of power will prove your worth to the five gods here.

[Iceglow]

a summon materia

[Flying Mullet]

Hmm, let me revise the riddle.

[Iceglow]

thought it was rather easy after my insanely hard one...*Thinks* let me get back on this

[SeeDRankLou]

[SeeDRankLou]

YAY!!! Ok...

Working in two, on occasion three
In the beginning, solo was he
With eyes of green, ready to tame cattle,
He had to run from his very first battle.

Zack??!!


(if it is cloud,cloud had blue eyes)

[SeeDRankLou]

Zach....wrong. Cloud....wrong. Please hang up, and if you would like to make another call, try again (i.e. try again).

[zacks_clone]

...Sephiroth?....:: blinks :: ... huh.i really dunno.

[SeeDRankLou]

No. You're in the right ballpark, but no.

[one_winged_angel]

Hey this is too easy, the TURKS man! Reno alone, he runs away, then Reno and Rude at Gongaga, then Reno, Rude and Elena in the subway at midgar, yes? And i think Reno has green eyes. And he has a cattle prod in the battle at the plate.

Please ignore this riddle if my answer is wrong, but i didnt want to leave you without something to think about.

A great hall of glass,
The end for one,
The saviour shines bright,
but green comes from.

Ok its unbelievabley easy (I'm looking for a place not a thing)

[zacks_clone]

Oh,oh!....ohhhh,shoot!City of the Ancients,yes?

[one_winged_angel]

Yeh it is pretty much, I was looking for forgotten capital but I know you know where I mean. So, riddle away!

[zacks_clone]

sorry.-.-;; erm,i'll try.im not to good at these things...

A Sacrifice and hidden love, a brillent mind abused. A forgotten life and hidden thoughts,The things I'll never lose.

(erm,abit...odd,yes.Im horrid at this type of thing :()

[HOOTERS]

Umm...the video recordings at Icicle Inn?

[zacks_clone]

yup!( see,i told you i suck at this -.-;; ) good job.

[SeeDRankLou]

Tifa's unrequited love for Cloud....Cloud's memories hidden by the Jenova cell injections?

[zacks_clone]

sorry Seed,somone already answered the question :(

[HOOTERS]

Ok my turn I guess:

This person's intelligent, helpful, seems to like green.....and....what was the last part? I forgot.

[one_winged_angel]

Hmmmm... just a wild guess, but Shera?

[Lord Xehanort]

I don't remember any character liking green. o_O

[HOOTERS]

Nope, it's not Shera.

Oh yeah I remembered the other part. This person's really helpful the only problem is that they....they....damn....I forgot again....

[SeeDRankLou]

The Chocobo Sage.

[HOOTERS]

Yep.

[one_winged_angel]

Damn! pretty obvious aswell, I just couldn't remember (no joke intended) who it was that forgot things

[Flying Mullet]

Riddle us! Riddle us!

[zacks_clone]

:: light goes off in head,then died :: OH!i get it now!(sucha blond,i really am :P)yes,please,another riddle!

[SeeDRankLou]

Sorry, my roommate annoyingly needed the phone ALL DAY.....this is my attempt at a hikou

The Ultima Weapon to one side,
The Masamune to the other,
Sephiroth is defeated.

[HOOTERS]

The part at the end where you go one-on-one with Sephiroth?

[SeeDRankLou]

.....more specifically.

[Flying Mullet]

HOOTERS hit it I thought. Cloud is on one side with the Ultima weapon, Sephiroth is on the other with Manasmune, and Sephiroth gets worked.

[SeeDRankLou]

But remember the riddle is a hikou. (Hint: many hikous imply an action taken around the given circumstances.)

[ForeverZeroUltima]

............is that the answer? then, why doesn't hooters just give another riddle? or is the answer still floating around?

[SeeDRankLou]

No, that wasn't the answer, I was giving them a hint on translation.

[one_winged_angel]

Omnislash? And isn't it spellt Haiku?

[SeeDRankLou]

Correct...and thanks :)

[one_winged_angel]

Yay! How good am I? ahem...

I'm feral, yet tame,
The colour of flame,
You have to travel,
To find my name,
Me and my father,
In honour the same.

Yes it's very easy, I couldn't think of much...

[zacks_clone]

Red XIII/ Naniki(did i spell naniki right??)


Perfect now, forever flawless.
Gone now, forever we will miss.
Silent now, forever in rest.
Loving now, and forever more.

[one_winged_angel]

Yes you were right and it's Nanaki...

I don't know why but for some reason I keep thinking Aeris, is my subconscious correct?

[zacks_clone]

Yeah,exactly right.:D your turn!

[one_winged_angel]

Damn this means I have to think of one... hmmm....

I'm running kinda dry here, so this is gonna be very bad.

Defeat me to receive me,
You can never leave me,
With your strength I find my own,
Your abilities will not have grown.

Try not to focus on the second line, it's kinda not really related in any possibly guessable way.

[zacks_clone]

Yuffie?Just a shot in the dark

[one_winged_angel]

No, but a very good guess, I know where you're coming from.

[PhoenixAsh]

Ultima Weapon.

Side by side with myself I wait, just two waiting to be found.

[Flying Mullet]

Mime materia?

[zacks_clone]

OH!Chocobo?!

[one_winged_angel]

Ultima weapon is correct, defeat ultimate weapon to get it, you can't sell it or drop it, its power decreases when you get hurt and it has growth:none.

And is the answer Blademaster with mirror image? Uh no thats warcraft...

It's not one of those dodgy flashbacks where Cloud is beside himself is it? Or not necessarily a flashback but just an illusion/mental breakdown/schitzophrenia thing...

[Evil Mr. Moo]

Side by side with myself I wait, just two waiting to be found.

I'm going to say it's Cloud, and yet I could be wrong.

[PhoenixAsh]

Nope, noone's close yet. A hint is that the clue is both a normal clue, and slightly cryptic.

[Evil Mr. Moo]

Does it involve the monster in the safe at the Shinra Mansion?

[PhoenixAsh]

That's a pretty impressive guess if you don't know it's name. Yeah it's Lost Number.

[ForeverZeroUltima]

go Mr. Moo! riddle us!

[Evil Mr. Moo]

SWEET, I was right!! Alright here's a fairly easy one:

Happy creature I may be, but strike me and I will flee.

[GaV]

a chocobo?

[Evil Mr. Moo]

Yeah! Riddle away.

[GaV]

ok i really can't think of a good one ummmmmmm ok:

you can hear it calling

[ForeverZeroUltima]

the voice of Sephiroth?

[zacks_clone]

:: blinks :: black materia? sorry.only thing i could think of...some loon drooling over the black materia...

[Evil Mr. Moo]

I'm assuming that it is the planet for that riddle.

[GaV]

sure is evil, riddle away :p

[Evil Mr. Moo]

I can't think one right now. I'll let someone else try one.

[one_winged_angel]

Ok lets have a vote. I vote for me.
I got the most votes so far, I get to do the next one.

I am the weapon to cleanse the Earth,
To get to 'Him' go through me first,
After your loss I will appear,
And to your leader, death creeps near.

[GaV]

hmmm jenova?

[one_winged_angel]

No sorry, but I know why you got that idea.

[zacks_clone]

its not jenova??erm,metor?

[GaV]

mmmm yeah i would have to go with meteor as well in that case

[ForeverZeroUltima]

i think...

Diamond Weapon!

"To get to "Him" you go through me first"...Him is Sephiroth, and Shinra Cannon goes through him first.

"Your leader, Death creeps near"...the leader is Rufus!

am i right?

[one_winged_angel]

Nice one ForeverUltimaZero, you got it!
It is WEAPON.
He is WEAPON and is built to cleanse Earth
The shinra cannon goes through him
He appears right after the forgotten capital (BIG loss)
And the leader I speak of is ofcourse the leader of Shinra Inc.

Riddle away!!!

[zacks_clone]

...i was so going to say that next...;)

alright,riddle us

[ForeverZeroUltima]

m-me?? ok...i dunno if this one is easy or hard though...

As the terror begins to unleash,
Death rises to the sky, and
once the terror settles,
scorched is the land.

best one i can think of right now :D

[Flying Mullet]

Ultima Weapon I assume. As the weapons are unleashed, the Ultima Weapon rises in the sky and once you defeat it for good it leaves the crater by the ancient forest.

[ForeverZeroUltima]

like i said, that one wasn't too hard. riddle away, mulllet!

[Flying Mullet]

I used to soar upon the clouds,
Sun bright and cheery upon my body.
Now I rest in cool, wet slumber,
never to see the sun again.

meh, it's the best I could do.

[zacks_clone]

erm...cool wet slumber?Aerith?

[Flying Mullet]

Originally posted by zacks_clone

Nope, sorry. Good guess though.

[Kirobaito]

The Gelnika? I don't remember if that was flying ship or a water ship. Possibly the Tiny Bronco. I don't remember its fate.

[zacks_clone]

Gelinika was a air ship.Im almost certain,for i think it had actual wings(and a helocopter...)

[ForeverZeroUltima]

yay i got 100th post in this thread! :D

[one_winged_angel]

yay i got 100th post in this thread!

lol

Is it Emerald Weapon?

[Flying Mullet]

SOrry for the late response. Yes, I was thinking of the Gelnika.

Go ahead zacks_clone. :)

[Kirobaito]

I actually got that one right, as my first answer was the Gelnika, but I'm between school and band practice right now, so I'll let him do it.

[Flying Mullet]

Oh yeah, you did. Sorry. :(

Must be monday.

[zacks_clone]

^.- i happen to be a her. :D but i'll let you off easy for that. anyways, i have no riddle at the moment, and you were the one who got it correct and not I .I merely commented on your post.I'd rather wait for you to put something

[Flying Mullet]

Well someone riddle us.

[Kirobaito]

zacks_clone, I knew you were a girl, I don't know why I put 'him.' **dies**

Uh, I'm not the riddle-esque type, but I'll give it a shot:

My soul unleashing,
Memories of past eras,
With my saber and slam,
I ravage the earth.
Yet who am I really?

EDIT: This could be a little hard, my friend whose life is video games (errr...although that's not unlike the rest of us) couldn't get it. After 10 guesses or posts threatening to kill me I'll give the answer.

[one_winged_angel]

You say it's really hard which puts me off this answer, but the obvious one would be Sephiroth

[zacks_clone]

Jenova?

[Kirobaito]

No, and no. Think more specific.

[ForeverZeroUltima]

Vincent, whos final LIMIT BREAK is Chaos. (his two attacks are Chaos Sabre and Satan Slam, hence saber and slam)

[Kirobaito]

Yah. Got it. A'arr.

[one_winged_angel]

YAY! We overtook the trivia thread!

[ForeverZeroUltima]

since i got that question, i get to riddle u guys, huh? :P

let's see.....darn it, i dont know any right now.......let's see.................

obtained through skill and strategy,
rivalry rages through a family.
as most cultures can spread,
this culture cannot be spread.

What is obtained?

[Kirobaito]

A Gold Chocobo? I dunno. :(

[Flying Mullet]

Is it something that Nanaki gets? I can't think of anything that Nanaki gets through skill and strategy though.

[Kirobaito]

Maybe the All-Creation Limit Break for Yuffie? She gets it by beating her father, and I guess you can't spread the culture of All Creation, as everyone already has it.

[ForeverZeroUltima]

wow i never thought of that, King Bahamut! the answer was Leviathan, but i figured you'd go for that next. so go ahead and riddle us.

[Kirobaito]

Alright. I would have gone for Leviathan next, anyway.

Perched on the dusk of a cave,
It rests with eternal chaos.
Constant battling, never ceasing
Until the enormity of magic gives way.
What is it?

[PhoenixAsh]

Is it the bird on top of Fort Condor?

[Kirobaito]

I was going for just Fort Condor, but yes, that is correct.

[ForeverZeroUltima]

riddle us, Phoenix Ash!

[PhoenixAsh]

Fall from the heavens and I'll be there for you,
Yet somehow I don't belong.
Only the love of a pure soul lets me be,
Glimpse it here now that it's gone.

[GaV]

aeris?

[Kirobaito]

Holy?

[zacks_clone]

im thinking lifestream...

[Kirobaito]

I say Holy because it's Aeris that summons holy. The Lifestream just seemed to "come."

[PhoenixAsh]

Sorry, no and no. If people don't get close I'll throw in a few clues. This ones tricky.

[zacks_clone]

Suddenly im thinking the church with aerith's ghost in it...

[Kirobaito]

Yeah. The church with Aeris. The flowers in the church with Aeris! They catch Cloud when he falls, and it's Aeris's aura that allows the flowers to grow.

[ForeverZeroUltima]

*scratches head*

i'm with king bahamut on this one.

[PhoenixAsh]

Impressive, bang on. I'll let whoever gets back first riddle next.

[Kirobaito]

I'm riddled out for now (thinking of one-wise). Someone else do it. **sleeps**

[zacks_clone]

haha.didnt think of the flowers.nice KB...

Suppose,if no one minds...

Underneath me your spirit hides
Behind me you'v always been
Beside me I'v always seen you
Where your story starts, mine ends.

[Evil_Cloud]

Zack

[zacks_clone]

well THAT was simple...i was proud of my pretty words...course...my name and my obsession with this character dont much help me being trick,does it?

Your correct,so riddle away!

[Evil_Cloud]

You cannot run,
You cannot hide,
I sense you always,
You'll never make it without some help......

[zacks_clone]

im thinking the riddle is being said by sephiroth,but its talking about cloud...o.O

[Evil_Cloud]

no, ur thinking too hard.....

[one_winged_angel]

Hmmmm...... Temple of the Ancients?

You can't get out with the black materia without Caith Sith's help I don't know wether that counts as a spoiler or not and it isn't really spoiling much butI thought I better be safe

[Evil_Cloud]

nope, keep trying....

[Evil_Cloud]

aww come on, no one can answer my riddle??

[Kirobaito]

Don't double post.

And no, we can't get it, for that clue seemed quite vague.

[Flying Mullet]

Originally posted by Evil_Cloud

And that's why you are not supposed to double post. It's called thread bumping and all it does is take up extra space on the servers.

If no one is answering your riddle then let it sit.

[Evil_Cloud]

well i deleted my previous post, since Mullet told me to let the riddle sit, although i did post the answer, not sure if anyone saw it other than him....

the riddle still stands....

You cannot run,
You cannot hide,
I sense you always,
You'll never make it without some help....

[TheSpoonyBard]

A: Midgar Zolom

Q:

Lonely for years
Lost in her tears
She found a child
And with it, her happiness

[Flying Mullet]

Aeris' foster mom, Ethel or whatever? (I can't remember her name)

[TheSpoonyBard]

Yeah, it was Aeirs' foster mother, Elmyra. Well done. Guess it's your turn now....

[Flying Mullet]

I hide in the shadows,
You won't always see me,
But I exchange money for money,
Where people go "whee".

[TheSpoonyBard]

It's the dude who randomly appears in the airway station at the Gold Saucer, he sells GP to you.

Lost in the mountains
Alone with a 'kweh'
If you ask enough times
You'll get the key

[Kirobaito]

There are two possibilities:

The Chocobo Sage

or

the dude that gives you the mythril that lets you get Great Gospel. Both are lost in the mountains, and involve chocobos. But chances are it's the Chocobo Sage.

[TheSpoonyBard]

King Bahamut, you're right, it was the Chocobo Sage, since he eventually give you the key to breeding a Gold Chocobo. Riddle away, as the saying goes.

[Evil_Cloud]

[Kirobaito]

Caught like rats,
by the urban cronies,
There's a reason it's superstitiously evil.

Where does this occur? This is a little ambiguous, and doesn't flow, but oh well. Think hard enough, and if you know the game specifically enough, you should get it.

[TheSpoonyBard]

Is this when Elena and Yuffie get caught by Don Corneo and are held within the eyes of the big statue in Wutai (Da-Hui? No, that's the Offspring...erm, i forgot the name)

[Kirobaito]

No...good guess though. Earlier in the game.

[TheSpoonyBard]

Is it when Cloud, Tifa and Aeris are dropped into the sewer by the Don and fight Apps?

[Kirobaito]

No. Now you're too early. Like I said, this is ambiguous, but I am looking for a certain moment.

[TheSpoonyBard]

Has it got anything to do with Don Corneo? Because that's all I can think of when you say 'rats' and 'urban' cronies'.

[Kirobaito]

No. Nothing to do with the Don. Directly.

[SeeDRankLou]

When everyone is at the Gold Saucer, and they get thrown into the Desert Prison and are trapped in all directions by quicksand?

[Kirobaito]

No. Earlier.

[zacks_clone]

:: laughs :: im thinking the turks here...dunno why

[Kirobaito]

You, ma'am, are on the right track. Like I said, the clue could mean any number of places, but I'm searching for a specific place and time. Read the last line of the clue carefully. What fits with that?

[zacks_clone]

urban=city.Alright.Wutai,midgar plate/shinrabuilding/allyway/...Alright...Im begining to believe it is when Cloud and Co. fight Reon,Elena and Rude in the tunnel before Proud Clod...

[Kirobaito]

No. MUCH MUCH earlier than that.

[zacks_clone]

Much much earlyer hmmm?Well...im guessing its not the wutai part,nor when cloud and co. are chucked in jail.not before proud clod...the trail to Gongaga,where you fight reno and rude...?

[Kirobaito]

Earlier. I know everyone will kill me when they find out the answer. **Runs**

[zacks_clone]

o.O earlyer?!Okay....between Gongaga,and being dumped into the sewears...Okay...:: bangs head :: supersticously evil...evil i think Shinra/midgar/shinra mansion.Cant be the shinra mansion i dont believe...caught like rats by the urba cronies...when Rude and Teseng get cloud in the elavator...?

[Kirobaito]

Took ya long enough...yeah, I happen to post THAT situation, because I'm replaying FF7, and I passed it, and I couldn't think of anything else. The caught like rats part didn't mean anything, just meaning 'caught', and Urban cronies only means the Turks. But you happen to be caught on the 66th floor elevator, and the number 6 next to another number 6 is bad luck.

[zacks_clone]

i knew that...-.-;; man....:: goes and finds Buster sword to skewer KB with .... ::

man,that was HARD though.Good job!...

but now I remember why i didnt want to answer....I dont like comming up with riddles.

They say I am a monster,
A terrable beast from the deep
But as you'll soon see the best can beat me
and if you beat the best
The best you may be.

...i may revise that...its confusing.read the first three lines and maybe the 5th...and you'll understand my confuzness

[Kirobaito]

Sapphire Weapon?

[zacks_clone]

knew somone was going to say that...nope.

[Kirobaito]

Well, I'll try talking myself through it.

The best is known as Sephiroth, and who does Sephiroth beat that you know of? Midgar Zolom, but that was an answer just a few riddles ago. This is precisely the reason I need to play FFVII more. A terrible beast from the deep, which means water, to most people. I dunno right now. I'll just say Midgar Zolom to get another answer out.

[zacks_clone]

:: bangs head:: shoot...i forgot about it ebing the answer abit ago...im sorry,im such a blond.its been an off day.your correct.now i must go to do my homework like a good little girl and beat my head up against a wall for my stupidity

[Kirobaito]

Someone else ask. My head has gone down the poo-pooer. **dies**

[GaV]

an unexpected event
inner strength is born
the fires may be out
but they still burn within

gimme a place and the event :p

[Zero Bahamut]

where you would look 4 death u will find my life
solitude is my wish
revenge is my desire
who am i?

[Zero Bahamut]

is it when Tifa brings cloud back 2 his real self??

[stevieb]

is it nibelheim when it was burnt down, and clouds inner feelings of his hate for sephiroth ?

[GaV]

good guess zero can see where you are coming from. Nice 1 steve, ya the fire is now out but clouds hate still burns strong. The event is obviously the fire of nibelheim and the inner strength is cloud flinging sephi into the lifestream. Riddle away steve!

[stevieb]

ok...sorry this might not be very good, a bit vague but it was rushed a little, so here goes

Though my body is seperated under one,
My heart stands tall towards the sun.
My power glows all way round,
But the greatest of it lies nearest the ground

[Zero Bahamut]

is it Aeris/Holy?

[stevieb]

yeah you are along the right lines, youve pretty much got it about the power being nearest the ground, but thats not the main answer...though aeris and holy are part of the answer.

[Zero Bahamut]

hmmmm. . . . .. . .

is it the planet itself and its lifestream working with holy?

[zacks_clone]

Though my body is seperated under one,
My heart stands tall towards the sun.
My power glows all way round,
But the greatest of it lies nearest the ground


The white materia?

[stevieb]

you are right about white materia, thats the power im referring to being the greatest near the ground. but as youve probably guessed, thats not the main answer, and the main answer is not a person. youve got the last line figured, now look at the first 3. Think, what glows in the world of FF7...baddies love it !

[stevieb]

p.s. its best not to think of the white materia by itself, its best to think of it WITH aeris

[MooNScar]

Mako is it?

[stevieb]

yes, mako is what im talking about in the third line...link that + aeris to the descriptions that are the first 2 lines, then you should come out with the answer

[PhoenixAsh]

So are we talking lifestream?

[stevieb]

not specifically no. the power nearest the ground is aeris with the white materia. the power glowing all way round is mako. Think on a broader scale of things. The mako and aeris+white materia are just ckues to the main answer

[Zero Bahamut]

so we'v got glowing mako
the white materia linked with aeris and its power near the ground. . . . . . . . . . .

i keep thinkin of the spell at the very end of the game which stops the black materia's spell, the combined forces of Holy and the Lifestream.

Does the first line have nethin 2 do with aeris' death?
im stuk:mog:

[stevieb]

the answer links to nothing to events near the end, think waaaaaaaaay back. and remember, you need to think BIG, in a physical sense. the white materia im thinking of is before its taken any effect whatsoever. Ok, heres a big clue....imagine this riddle was written long before aeris's death. and dont forget, think BIG!

Mukki's the speedo guy at the HoneyBee Inn and hanging out at Sol Vista, or whatever that beach town is before you go to Gold Saucer.

[PhoenixAsh]

So are we talking about the planet then?

[Maxico]

for some reason im thinking cait sith.

or what about sephiroth, he is thrown into the life stream but his clone/jenova/whatever the hell you chase is still around. I dunno, just a wild guess

[zacks_clone]

Hahaha...the entry scean with aeris and the glowing lights comming out of something that looks like mako...Thats all i can think of

[stevieb]

CONGRATULATIONS ZERO BAHAMUT!! the answer is MIDGAR!.
though body is seperated under one (8 sectors make up midgar)
my heart stands tall towards the sun (the shinra HQ that towers aboe everything else, and the heart of shinra)
my power glows all way round (the ring of 8 mako reactors)
though the greatest lies nearest the ground (aeris with the white materia in the sector 5 slums church below the 'plate')
Well Done Zero Bahamut! Riddle away my friend...

[Zero Bahamut]

k il give it a shot
il post the 1 i posted b4, it may not b v gud so here goes. . . . . . .

where you would find death you will find my life if you take the time 2 look
solitude is my wish
revenge is my purpose

[PhoenixAsh]

Actually that was quite a good riddle, I think everyone was expecting it to be more vague just with flashy wording.

[one_winged_angel]

hanging out at Sol Vista, or whatever that beach town is before you go to Gold Saucer.

Costa Del Sol

And for the latest riddle I'm guessing either Gii Nattack or whatever it is (the boss you fight out back of cosmo canyon) or seto...

[TheSpoonyBard]

where you would find death you will find my life if you take the time 2 look
solitude is my wish
revenge is my purpose
It's Vincent.
"where you would find death you will find my life if you take the time 2 look" -- You find him (life) sleeping inside a coffin (death)
"solitude is my wish" -- He wishes to be alone so he can attone for his sins
"revenge is my purpose" -- He wants revenge on Hojo
Am I right?

[Zero Bahamut]

ur dead rite
not very hard but its all i cud think of at the time, it was my 1st riddle ya'no

well done darkness, the next riddle is urs. . . . . .

[TheSpoonyBard]

When the rocks come down the mountainside
It's best for you to hide
Five becomes six
And they're up to their old tricks

[zacks_clone]

Im thinking of the temple of ancients,where you need to duck and cover when the rocks are falling down the hall

[TheSpoonyBard]

I can see where you're coming from, but unfortunately it's not right. Ignore the second line, and think a bit more broadly....

[PhoenixAsh]

At the minute I'm thinking of the Weapons, but I can't quite work out where the six comes from.

[SeeDRankLou]

Hmmm......

When Cloud joins Avalanche (becoming it's 6th member) and agrees to go destroy another reactor?

[one_winged_angel]

When Cloud joins Avalanche (becoming it's 6th member) and agrees to go destroy another reactor?

Wow nice guess, you can tell thought went into that.... I would never guess that...

[TheSpoonyBard]

Well done SeedRankLou, you're right. Heehee, I had a few of you stumped then, didn't I? The main clue was the rocks falling down the mountainside, otherwise known as an avalanche. Riddle away, SRL.

[SeeDRankLou]

WOOHOO!!....ok, I thought I'd be humorous with this one.

Oh, woe is me
Caught upside-down in the air, can't do a thing
Oh, there goes Cid, caught as well
CLOUD, WILL YOU GET US DOWN FROM HERE ALREADY!!
And remember Cloud...
If you die an we're still alive it's still game over

[zacks_clone]

Isnt it the boss before you get the sub?I have sense forgotten its name...But if he picks up the members in your part,and Cloud died,its game over for you.

[SeeDRankLou]

Well that was fast....correct.

[zacks_clone]

oy.i sat there pulling out my hair trying to think.:P it was a good one though.made me laugh.

Anywho.here we go.

Left and right
Colors in sight
As they lift to the sky
I begin to fly

eh.take a stab at it

[one_winged_angel]

WEAPONS?

"colours in sight" ruby emerald etc.
"As they lift to the sky" they do fly

[zacks_clone]

knew the riddle was alittle lacking in details.alright,let me put up a better one with the same answer.

We are following the footprints in the snow
For over the mountin we are trying to go
So many paths and so many colors
But each leads to the same fate
Flying above the trees, only to land where we shall freez and wait.

[TheSpoonyBard]

Is it the snowboarding minigame? The colours you mention could be the balloons, and the many paths you can take all lead to somewhere in the Great Glacier, which is covered in snow, hence the freezing reference.

[zacks_clone]

exactly what it is.good job.Riddle away

[TheSpoonyBard]

To you my life is a mystery
Something out of a fantasy
You found me, I was alone
In my humble abode of stone
Save for the person I love
Who now resides above

Good luck, it's a tricky one.

[PhoenixAsh]

I may be way off here, but is it Snow?

[TheSpoonyBard]

I can see where you're coming from, and it's a good guess, but it's wrong. Sorry. Try again.

[PhoenixAsh]

Hmmm, Lucrecia? I'll let someone else guess if that's wrong too.

[HanaKirei]

For some reason Vincent comes into mind. XD; I'm prolly wrong though.

[TheSpoonyBard]

Sorry, no and no. Don't give up! You'll get the right asnwer eventually.

[zacks_clone]

Cloud?

[PhoenixAsh]

I'm getting a feeling about Gongaga for some reason, though I'm also thinking of either Seto or Nanaki.

[TheSpoonyBard]

PhoenixAsh is getting warmer with her second second thought. (I think you're a girl, apologies to you if I'm wrong)

[Kirobaito]

Nanaki's Father. He is petrified, and I guess he loves his wife, who I guess is completely dead, and resides "above."

[TheSpoonyBard]

Ooh, so close yet so far. Keep guessing.

[-N-]

Guesses as follows...

1) The guy in the Cave Near Midgar who gives you Mythril?
It doesn't gel with the last two lines, though...

2) Jenova?
Gast found it alone underground in rock... once again, it doesn't gel with the "person I love"... unless that is Sephiroth...

3) Aeris?
The church could be made out of stone, and Zack is "up above" in the heavens, I suppose... Her life isn't much of a "mystery", though...

More guesses later...

[zacks_clone]

Nanakis grandpa?Begenhem?(cant spell it...-.-;; )

[PhoenixAsh]

I am NOT a girl, Bugenhagen would have been a guess, but he was my "person I love", I can't think of anyone he lost, or a person he loved.

[zacks_clone]

good point

[TheSpoonyBard]

Do you give in? Am I allowed to ask that? Some of you are sooooo close, but you're thinking one generation too far. Come a bit closer to the 'present'. Hint:This riddle would only apply if you have got halfway through Disc 3.

[PhoenixAsh]

I've already said Nanaki.....

[Kirobaito]

This is a complete guess, but by going down another generation, you have Nanaki's kids at the end of the game.

[one_winged_angel]

I am NOT a girl, Bugenhagen would have been a guess, but he was my "person I love"

Lol, you're a guy and you love Bugenhagen! :p :D :love: :whoa:

[SeeDRankLou]

I'm just going to throw this one there....Sephiroth.

[zacks_clone]

....yeah,okay.and you ask if there is something wroung with me! (( commenting on o_w_a's comment.))

[-N-]

My guess is its a monster in the Northern Crater, since that's all that really fits in with your hint without including the ending sequence. It doesn't fit with the whole generation thing. I'll guess Polan Solita (sp)? The enemy that does Angel Whisper.

[Kirobaito]

I say Nanaki's kids, because you see them surrounded by stone at the end of the game, and you never know anything about them. (?)

[PhoenixAsh]

I'm thinking it's still Nanaki, but that answer was missed. He's one generation from Seto, and loses Bugenhagen halfway through disc 3.

[Kirobaito]

I know. It makes sense, but apparently that isn't right. And you never know that much about him, either.

[one_winged_angel]

....yeah,okay.and you ask if there is something wroung with me! (( commenting on o_w_a's comment.))

HEY!

I never said there was anything wrong with you!

[TheSpoonyBard]

I'm thinking it's still Nanaki, but that answer was missed. He's one generation from Seto, and loses Bugenhagen halfway through disc 3.
I'll accept that answer, it was Nanaki. I just wanted someone to give a reason for their choice by applying it to the riddle. Riddle away PhoenixAsh!
