I know this world so well,
But my time has past.
All your stories; I can tell
But you'll never know my own.


Lifestream?

TheSpoonyBard
10-26-2004, 09:24 PM
Bugenhagen?

Dragon Ash
10-27-2004, 07:59 AM
hint: it's a character but not a playable 1

so not the fayth and not the lifestream and i don't even know what/who Bugenhagen is!

TheSpoonyBard
10-27-2004, 05:22 PM
Bugenhagen is Red XIII's grandfather in FFVII.

I'm going to take another guess and say Garland (FFIX).

Dragon Ash
10-28-2004, 09:21 AM
no, but the biggest clue is the word stories

try again

Maechen?

And that, as they say, is that!

He's great - tells you all sorts of thing you'd never know! :p

Sorry for the wait.

Instilled with unbelieveable power,
One to break all boundaries
Though at first nothing out of the ordinary.

One is weak - it makes him strong
Two are drained - it makes them weak
The rest are strong in health, but weak when low.

Many battles to be fought - travel the world once again
Run a race in an exceptional time
Become the champion or dodge the bolts
To make use of your prize.

TheSpoonyBard
10-31-2004, 10:18 PM
It's the Celestial Weapons.

Instilled with unbelieveable power, (best weapon in game)
One to break all boundaries (break damage limit)
Though at first nothing out of the ordinary. (need to unlock them)

One is weak - it makes him strong (auron)
Two are drained - it makes them weak (yuna and lulu)
The rest are strong in health, but weak when low. (tidus, kimahri, rikku, wakka)

Many battles to be fought - travel the world once again (need to search for sigils and crests)
Run a race in an exceptional time (to get tidus' sigil)
Become the champion or dodge the bolts (to unlock lulu's sigil)
To make use of your prize. (the celestial weapon is the prize)

Am I right?

~SilverWings~
11-01-2004, 07:48 PM
Man, woz it that easy? *need to make riddles more challenging, mwahahahaa*

Yup, you gottit! Gogogogo!

TheSpoonyBard
11-01-2004, 08:40 PM
Flying over the world,
Visiting deserts, beaches and plains,
Defeat me? I doubt it,
But catch me, feed me, and I will reward you.

§håd0w
11-01-2004, 11:35 PM
I would say PuPu from VIII, but you can sure as hell beat him since he only has 5 HP. Otherwise I'm stumped.

Dragon Ash
11-02-2004, 07:59 AM
chocobo's? they don't do much flying but they can

TheSpoonyBard
11-02-2004, 08:23 PM
I would say PuPu from VIII, but you can sure as hell beat him since he only has 5 HP. Otherwise I'm stumped.
Correct, it was Pupu from FFVIII. When I said you couldn't defeat it, I was referring to the spaceship. Well done.

§håd0w
11-06-2004, 09:51 PM
I am the grandfather of living color,
But my name contains none.

~SilverWings~
11-06-2004, 11:11 PM
Man is that Yuffie from FFVII AC? *Realises jaw is hanging open*

Wheredyagetthatpicture???

§håd0w
11-06-2004, 11:18 PM
Indeed it is. Here ya go, enjoy.

TheSpoonyBard
11-07-2004, 08:29 PM
I am the grandfather of living color,
But my name contains none.
Is it Bugenhagen, Red XIII's grandfather?

§håd0w
11-10-2004, 07:06 PM
Sure isn't. Keep trying.

~SilverWings~
11-11-2004, 10:56 PM
I thought 'YES! Iv'e gottit!'

Leblanc!

But then I read it again and saw the 'Grandfather' bit :(

Oh well.......

§håd0w
11-14-2004, 08:27 PM
Nope, keep trying people.

~SilverWings~
11-15-2004, 08:22 PM
:confused: :confused: :confused:

Ummm.........

TheSpoonyBard
11-15-2004, 08:30 PM
I agree. I think a clue/hint would be helpful.

UltimateSpamGrover
11-16-2004, 03:27 AM
ok, is it Esthar?

~SilverWings~
11-16-2004, 10:10 PM
Well, if it's from ffs 6 downwards I have no chance :tongue:

TheSpoonyBard
11-16-2004, 10:15 PM
I think I've got it! Is it Strago magus, grandfather of Relm the artist? Relm's Sketch ability causes her paintings to come to life, hence the 'living colour' bit. I hope I'm right.

UltimateSpamGrover
11-19-2004, 05:50 AM
looks like we'll never know...

§håd0w
11-20-2004, 09:36 PM
Close, but no one has got it yet. And let me add one more thing...

edit

I am the father of living color,
But my name contains none.

Sorry about that.

The Captain
11-23-2004, 07:37 AM
I'd say Shadow, since he's the Father of a certain pianter/sketcher and black/shadow is the absence of color.

If I'm correct, Darkness may take my turn since my answer was made much easier because of the one previously given.

Take care all.

TheSpoonyBard
11-23-2004, 08:33 PM
Why, thank you, how generous of you! :D

Defeat the ultimate to get the same,
Hunt, discover, and spend,
Riding on a bird near the bubbling transporter,
Travel to the beyond, then return to the place of tranquility,
You will find me there.

What am I?

The Sixth Dragon
11-23-2004, 08:40 PM
Is it a choboco from Final Fantasy x just as a guess :confused: because there is a transporter when you first go in the calm lands

TheSpoonyBard
11-23-2004, 08:44 PM
No, sorry. Hint: I am many things, but I share one quality.

abrojtm
11-24-2004, 04:32 AM
Ulitma Weapon-this particular clue refers to the one in FFIX I suppose.

TheSpoonyBard
11-24-2004, 10:48 PM
Hmm...I'm not too sure about that one, your answer is very vague, so I'll say no. Try again.

§håd0w
11-24-2004, 11:09 PM
Are you a member of the Shumi Tribe?

TheSpoonyBard
11-24-2004, 11:15 PM
No. What made you say that? ...*thinks*... Is it because I said 'Hmm...'? I always say that, to indicate I am thinking. Anyway, do you have an answer to my riddle?

§håd0w
11-24-2004, 11:18 PM
Heh, actually that was my answer; the whole 'I am many things, but I share one quality'. But I believe I have it narrowed down to something that is in FFVIII.

TheSpoonyBard
11-24-2004, 11:21 PM
Then you would believe wrongly, my friend. You are correct in thinking it is in FFVIII, but it is also in others...

§håd0w
11-24-2004, 11:33 PM
Then my only guess would be Ultima/Atma Weapon for the following reasons

Defeat the ultimate to get the same, - Defeat Ultima/Atma Weapon and recieve Ultima/Atma Weapon
Hunt, discover, and spend, - This one stumped me
Riding on a bird near the bubbling transporter, - The remains of the transporter to Terra in FFIX
Travel to the beyond, then return to the place of tranquility, - See above
You will find me there.


Hint: I am many things, but I share one quality. - Magic, Weapon, Boss, shares the name Ultima

Oh well, I guess I can't get every riddle right. But it was worth a shot.

TheSpoonyBard
11-25-2004, 07:49 PM
So close, so very close, but not quite.

UltimateSpamGrover
11-30-2004, 01:26 AM
I have no clue...

TheSpoonyBard
11-30-2004, 08:22 PM
OK, this has been going for a week now, so I'm going to reveal the answer. I give the next riddle to §håd0w as he was the closest.

Defeat the ultimate to get the same, (Defeat Ultimate WEAPON to get Cloud's Ultimate Weapon)
Hunt, discover, and spend, (You need to hunt down enemies that drop the items needed to customise Squall's Lionheart)
Riding on a bird near the bubbling transporter, (You find Zidane's Ultimate Weapon by using a Dead Pepper while on a chocobo near the Shimmering Isle bubbles)
Travel to the beyond, then return to the place of tranquility,
You will find me there.(You need to go to The Beyond to get Tidus' Sun Sigil, then go to the Calm Lands to get his Caladbolg)

So the answer was the final weapons from FFVII - FFX.

Arigato...


I have two fathers, so they say,
But both of them have gone away.
One rests in a land of sun
One's forever on the run.
Between them are two mouths to scold me
Between them are two hands to hold me.
Now I wait where shadows rise,
Watched by two out of six eyes.
Who am I?

UltimateSpamGrover
12-07-2004, 06:28 AM
may I buy a vowel?

§håd0w

§håd0w
12-07-2004, 11:09 PM
Wrong game.

UltimateSpamGrover
12-08-2004, 04:58 AM
I have two fathers, so they say,
But both of them have gone away.
One rests in a land of sun (Strago)
One's forever on the run. (Shadow)
Between them are two mouths to scold me
Between them are two hands to hold me.
Now I wait where shadows rise,
Watched by two out of six eyes.
Who am I?

RELM

§håd0w
12-08-2004, 11:46 PM
Close... but not quite. Try another game; it's not VI or VIII

nik0tine
12-10-2004, 05:58 AM
Just a wild guess, but is it Cecil from FFIV?

§håd0w
12-10-2004, 10:42 PM
Nope; you're moving farther away from the answer.

Tsuris
12-11-2004, 05:27 AM
two out of six eyes and more or less fatherless could be Eiko Carol from IX. I don't know how many moogles look out for her but they could make up the eyes.

Eiko

UltimateSpamGrover
12-12-2004, 08:45 PM
I have two fathers, so they say, Auron/Jecht
But both of them have gone away. Spira
One rests in a land of sun Jecht (Sin)
One's forever on the run. Auron
Between them are two mouths to scold me
Between them are two hands to hold me.
Now I wait where shadows rise,
Watched by two out of six eyes. Auron
Who am I?

TIDUS

§håd0w
12-13-2004, 01:23 AM
Nope to both.

HINT: Think of a character is also plays the role of a father.

UltimateSpamGrover
12-13-2004, 05:19 AM
I have two fathers, so they say, Barret/Dyne
But both of them have gone away.
One rests in a land of sun Dyne (Prison)
One's forever on the run. Barret (from Corel)
Between them are two mouths to scold me Barret / Tifa
Between them are two hands to hold me. Barret/ Tifa
Now I wait where shadows rise,
Watched by two out of six eyes. Tifa
Who am I?

MARLENE

Tsuris
12-14-2004, 12:49 PM
that would make a good answer but for the last hint.
HINT: Think of a character is also plays the role of a father.

UltimateSpamGrover
12-14-2004, 11:39 PM
he didnt specifically say the character was a father, and Barret is Marlene's father

~SilverWings~
12-23-2004, 12:20 AM
Hmmmmm. Marlene sounds like a good guess to me.

C'mon peeps, don't let this thread die!!! Whats the answer??

§håd0w
12-23-2004, 01:30 AM
Sorry for the delay folks... I didn't get a notification email for this topic.

UltimaKnightGrover, take it away! You got it right.

moron
12-25-2004, 10:48 AM
Ooh! Ooh! Is it me? :eek:
[What will I wear?]



[Wait a minute...]



[I don't wear clothes!]

UltimateSpamGrover
12-28-2004, 04:24 AM
I'm not good a making riddles but...

We have no life...
We have no beliefs...
We have one creator...
and our planet was destroyed by a madman.

WHO ARE WE?

§håd0w
12-28-2004, 02:24 PM
Genomes from FFIX

We have no life... -Empty Vessels
We have no beliefs... -Cannot think for themselves/have no soul
We have one creator... -Garland
and our planet was destroyed by a madman. -Kuja destroyed Terra

UltimateSpamGrover
12-29-2004, 02:08 AM
well, that was fast. You're up again.

§håd0w
12-29-2004, 02:38 PM
Hehe... Well here goes.


The weakest of all
Should logically be strong
And that's why the assistance

But this kind of strength
Will not help to stem the tide
Of an annual liberation

~SilverWings~
12-29-2004, 09:44 PM
Hehe... Well here goes.


The weakest of all

*cracks knuckles*


well weakest=strongest makes me think of Ispen's castle.....that's all I got at da mo :p

§håd0w
12-30-2004, 02:33 AM
You're in the right game. But Ipsen is wrong.

Sepho
12-30-2004, 05:39 AM
So far, what I have is something about the white mages (Eiko, Garnet - likely Garnet if it is that specific) and the Eidolons.



The weakest of all
Should logically be strong


They're physically the weakest class on the battlefield.



And that's why the assistance


The assistance being the Eidolons, which give them strength.



But this kind of strength
Will not help to stem the tide
Of an annual liberation


This is what puzzles me. It appears to be something about a situation where the Eidolons provide no help, and I'm thinking something along the lines of Brahne's thirst for power and her path of destruction (and perhaps her use of the Eidolons). It doesn't really seem to fit in with the 'annual liberation' part, and that's the source of my confusion.

UltimateSpamGrover
12-30-2004, 06:46 AM
Hehe... Well here goes.


The weakest of all (Leader of Tantalus)
Should logically be strong (He's not)
And that's why the assistance (Zidane, Blank, Marcus, Cinna)

But this kind of strength (Steiner will slaughter them)
Will not help to stem the tide
Of an annual liberation (Get Princess Garnet and put Brahne out of power)

Possible Answers:
The whole beginning of FFIX
Tantalus
Baku

§håd0w
12-30-2004, 02:38 PM
Nah... Think of an enemy on the first disc.

UltimateSpamGrover
12-30-2004, 05:55 PM
That Black Mage and his dragon friend in the Ice Cavern?

§håd0w
12-30-2004, 06:24 PM
Heh, once again it's your turn.

UltimateSpamGrover
12-30-2004, 08:50 PM
I live in these run down "ruins"...
with a garden in my back yard...
I dont live in a castle...
so, therefore I'm not a Bard...
I take care of a runaway's child...
but...my ...poor daughter..

Who am I? (I'm horrible at making riddles)

~SilverWings~
12-31-2004, 01:47 PM
The use of 'Ruins' just yells at me that it has to be something connected with FF8 or FFX - the Ruins where you find Odin, the deep sea research centre or the Omega ruins...... :confused:

KingOfDragons
12-31-2004, 04:29 PM
I think your Rinoa, in disc 3 she stands at the flower fields right? That's at the orphange right? And the Orphange is nothing then ruins right?

~SilverWings~
12-31-2004, 05:04 PM
Ellone....?

Runaway's child: Squall........?

But Ellone doesnt have a daughter.......

UltimateSpamGrover
12-31-2004, 09:32 PM
not FF8, and change ruins to slums, now you should get it pretty easily

§håd0w
12-31-2004, 09:57 PM
Elmyra?

UltimateSpamGrover
12-31-2004, 10:03 PM
you're up, again...

§håd0w
12-31-2004, 10:05 PM
WooO!!! Man I'm good.

Once I was the night,
Then I was the light.
Once I was the sword,
Now I am the shield,
Forevermore.

Who am I?

UltimateSpamGrover
12-31-2004, 10:06 PM
Chupon?

§håd0w
12-31-2004, 10:23 PM
Nope. But it was from one of the SNES/Super Famicom releases though.

UltimateSpamGrover
01-01-2005, 12:47 AM
you changed the riddle! :exdee:

At first I thought it was Leviathan, now the answer it obvious...

CECIL HARVEY

§håd0w
01-01-2005, 03:05 PM
Indeed... I figured the other one was a bit hard, so there ya go.

So now it's your turn.

UltimateSpamGrover
01-01-2005, 09:20 PM
someone take my turn, I dont want to give another FFXI riddle.

Tsuris
01-02-2005, 06:52 AM
This will be my first but I thought I would give it a try:

We both are weak but by your numbers,
By them alone you finish me.
But while your beginning may be my end
So to will mine be yours.

Who am I?

UltimateSpamGrover
01-02-2005, 07:14 AM
Zorn and Thorn?

Tsuris
01-02-2005, 06:17 PM
nope, and just for note the reference to we is about the one you are trying to find out, and "you" as in the characters in the game we as people play as

Alexander
01-02-2005, 07:34 PM
I will be killed saying this one, but it makes a very little bit of sense...
Rafa and Malak? *shot*

UltimateSpamGrover
01-03-2005, 05:51 AM
Necron?

louby_4eva
01-03-2005, 07:22 PM
We both are weak but by your numbers,



Does this have anything to do with FF8, numbers referring to levels??
Because if your characters are weak levels so is the enemy...........i'm grasping at straws here. I have no idea :confused:

Tsuris
01-03-2005, 08:11 PM
no to all and here is the last two lines:


We both are weak but by your numbers,
By them alone you finish me.
But while your beginning may be my end
So to will mine be yours.

As you go back to get me,
I will finish those that would finish me.

UltimateSpamGrover
01-05-2005, 08:10 AM
Sephiroth?

Tsuris
01-05-2005, 11:37 PM
nope, another hint,
think both chronoligically and the order the game actually plays in
(could mean 1 of 2 things)

UltimateSpamGrover
01-06-2005, 12:36 AM
the ending of FFIX? Kuja? Zidane?

Tsuris
01-06-2005, 04:32 AM
i do like your persistence but no again :)

Crazy the Clown
01-06-2005, 04:43 AM
My guesses are Edea Kramer and Seymour.

Tsuris
01-06-2005, 05:01 AM
actually getting closer, but lets go back to something I didnt say very well. The riddle is for one person/thing, the "we" refers to the person/thing and the characters playing, and "you" directly refers to what the riddle answer would be saying if you were in the game.

UltimateSpamGrover
01-06-2005, 11:46 PM
TURKS? I DONT KNOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111111111111oneonetwofive

Tsuris
01-06-2005, 11:51 PM
then i will answer that last hint for you,
1 of 2 things
1: time travel
2: dreams about the past
(the order the game plays in versus the order of actual time)
that should narrow the game list somewhat

UltimateSpamGrover
01-06-2005, 11:56 PM
Squall/Laguna?

Tsuris
01-06-2005, 11:58 PM
no :), not anything to do with ff8

RedCydranth
01-07-2005, 12:33 AM
The time Travel thing it throwing me for a loop, but perhaps its Cloud Strife? Throuought the game you get visions of his past, even playing it out in one part.

If this is something from FFXI or one of the Game Boy FFs I'm gonna shoot you (Excluding FFTA, that game was decent).

UltimateSpamGrover
01-07-2005, 01:24 AM
its not FFXI, FFXI doesnt have anything to do with time. has to be Chaos, FFI?

§håd0w
01-07-2005, 01:27 AM
Posting a riddle about FFXI would be unfair, since not everyone pays $12.95 a month to play. Whereas people will pay $20 bucks to play a game for a lifetime.

UltimateSpamGrover
01-07-2005, 01:32 AM
its not FFXI! :lol: and it cant be anything from Chrono Trigger or Cross

Aeris07
01-07-2005, 01:49 AM
im just taking a guess..tidus?
more than likely my guess is wrong

Tsuris
01-07-2005, 09:45 AM
grover you have credit for the game, and your answer may be right, it has been sometime since i have played, unless i have forgotten much, chaos was not the name of the character.....just his "shrine"

BudSoda02
01-07-2005, 05:43 PM
Would it happen to be Final Fantasy Tactics? There were mentions of time travel & Cloud... So it has to be Tactics, as there are many references to Final Fantasy VII in that game, like the crater for instance. He travelled through time to the Tactics era, which was like a totally different era of time in Final Fantasy. It also might be FFVIII, which also made references back to FFVII... I don't know otherwise.
Thanks- BudSoda02 BudSoda02@yahoo.com

UltimateSpamGrover
01-08-2005, 12:12 AM
Lich
Marilith (Kary)
Tiamat
Kraken

has to be one of them

Tsuris
01-08-2005, 01:36 AM
none of those rests in the chaos shrine itself, the one that does also appears as your "god/creator" in IX
I hope I'm not incorrect with his name but none of those matches.
Either way no matter what anyone answers now, grover essentially has it, the chaos shrine being. But his name would be of great interest now as no one has gotten it yet. So Grover I pass the turn to you, but anyone wanting to guess the name is welcome to for what you might like to call a "bonus point", if nothing else :).

TheSpoonyBard
01-08-2005, 01:39 AM
Garland?

UltimateSpamGrover
01-08-2005, 03:07 AM
I wont want to make any riddles, so I'll hand it over to Darkness, since she got the name

TheSpoonyBard
01-08-2005, 05:08 PM
A mystical force of a few
Pursued by many
It can bring destruction
To those without control
Ancient in age
But still undying

What am I? (hint: applies to all FFs)

Macp
01-09-2005, 12:10 AM
I think these are summons.

TheSpoonyBard
01-09-2005, 04:42 PM
No, try again.

Rase
01-09-2005, 05:01 PM
Magic?

TheSpoonyBard
01-09-2005, 05:18 PM
Yes. I expected that riddle to be easy, but it made for some light relief while it lasted. Next!

Rase
01-10-2005, 12:30 AM
Well, this may be simple, but anyway...

Earth and Water,
Wind and Fire,
This the order must be.
Rising once before receding.
Once again after thee.

One atop a mountain high,
Guards the Passage of Light,
Another on the throne resides,
Barely seems to make a fight.

The third in a great tower lives,
Floating high above the air,
The Final is a gentlemen,
Always wanting to fight you fair.

Who are they?

ChaosCalibur
01-10-2005, 01:30 AM
The elemental stones of FFV?

Rase
01-10-2005, 01:32 AM
Nope, try again.

turnitup5000db
01-10-2005, 03:12 AM
that would be milon, kainazzo, valvalis and rubicant from ffiv, i believe.

Rase
01-10-2005, 04:10 AM

This one shouldn't be all that hard.

Lost in the earth, lost to your life
Lost to the anger and hatred and strife
As you look to my heart, see into my mind
My envy of my foe - my friend - leaves me blind
Face to the foe, feet to the field
Feet to the air, clash of cold steel
The prize of my master may shimmer and shine
But the prize I desire can never be mine
And with this I suffer, will it never be mine?
Will I fall, unloved, traitor to my kind?
To this I say NO! I'm done with this wrong!
I've done too much evil, for far, far too long!
I've given up my friends, my familly, my soul!
And I finally break free, and again know my goal.
I used an old mans vengeful fury as a guide
as a beacon, for all of my rage, pain and pride.
And now I fight, for my redemption with wrath
And then, when its over, I'll then chose my path.

turnitup5000db
01-10-2005, 06:52 AM
Nope. You're going the wrong direction. Another hint - this isn't the persons ENTIRE story, just up to about halfway thru the game, then the last two lines just brush over the rest of the story. I'm trying to be somewhat ambiguous here, cause the whole story would give it away... I'll give it two more posts. Next one will be a big hint, then you get a revised version of the riddle with more details.

Good try, but not quite. Remember that going from 7 to 9 is the wrong direction. Also, new hint here - lines five and six are pretty heavy clues to the identity of the person.

turnitup5000db
01-10-2005, 10:29 PM
Nope. Maybe I should post the revised clue... here, maybe this will help. It has about six extra lines near the end, and those will probably give it away.

Lost in the earth, lost to your life
Lost to the anger and hatred and strife
As you look to my heart, see into my mind
My envy of my foe - my friend - leaves me blind
Face to the foe, feet to the field
Feet to the air, clash of cold steel
The prize of my master may shimmer and shine
But the prize I desire can never be mine
And with this I suffer, will it never be mine?
Will I fall, unloved, traitor to my kind?
To this I say NO! I'm done with this wrong!
I've done too much evil, for far, far too long!
I've given up my friends, my familly, my soul!
And I finally break free, and again know my goal.
I used an old mans vengeful fury as a guide
as a beacon, for all of my rage, pain and pride.
I gained my freedom, broke from my master
And then faced his minions, brought pain and disaster.
I thought I was free... I thought I was me... I thought we were done.
But these tendrils of evil... in my mind... left me nowhere to run.
I took the masters prize from my allies to my lord
And begged his forgiveness, his slave once more.
But another old man came, not by land or by sea
And showed I and my master the way to be free.
And now I fight, for my redemption with wrath
And then, when its over, I'll then chose my path.

Hope that helps.

Ok... be warned, this one is VERY HARD.

Here at last is my little letter game
to solve this riddle you must guess my name
One is second, first is two
three is simply the opposite of you
four is the spot that men cannot reach
both halves of my name have one of five each
finally at last we have number six
I've made it the middle of the end, just for kicks.
WHO AM I?

Is this a main playable character?

turnitup5000db
01-11-2005, 12:01 PM
Nope, in fact, he's pretty damn obscure. He appears in a grand total of two scenes. However, the entire riddle is about the letters in his name, not his actions or opinions, so you should still be able to figure it out. Or throw yourself out a window in frustration. Here, I'll really quick run off a last pair of lines to help out:

Now you have all the clues to my role
except for this one : I smell slightly of sole.

That will definitely help you if you can think outside the box.

Baigan

First is second (B)
Second is first (A)
Opposite of you (I)
Spot Men cant reach (G) (LOL DUDE!!!)
Middle of eNd (N)

BAIG_N is what I came up with, so natch its.. Baigan, FF4

Something smells fishy....

turnitup5000db
01-11-2005, 07:36 PM
DAMN, dude. You're a very clever little monkey. The only one you missed was line six (both halves of my name have one of five each. fifth letter is A, you cut his name in half BAI GAN, and its the only repeating letter.) Anyhow, Good Job, and you are up next.

RedCydranth
01-11-2005, 08:21 PM
The way I justified the second A was "both halves of my name have one of five each" One of 5, there are 5 Vowels, A being a vowel.

From Gaff you steal one
It makes swift work of the final boss in two
Found in a Shipwreck in three
With its strike it steals HP.

turnitup5000db
01-11-2005, 08:29 PM
Hmmm creative interpretation. Also, I think thats the blood sword, am i right?

RedCydranth
01-11-2005, 09:11 PM
Sure is. I'm not good at making these up. I only like trying to solve them.

Gaff Gafgarion carries the Blood Sword in FFT, Stealing it from him is the only way to get the sword (unless its a poached item or found in Deep dungeon with Move-Find Item)

in FF2, if you equip Frionel with the Blood Sword and have level 16 sword skill, it kills the last boss in a few hits.

In FF3 its found in the Shipwreck.

The sword when hitting an opponent steals their HP and heal the weilder.

not Lulu nor Cait Sith.

You first meet me in a Pub,
And meet me again in prison.
I'm a grandfather to one,
And called an 'Old Fart' by another.
I later started a partnership with someone, to help future generations.
Only to then lead a kingdom of my own.

I definetly cant explain each line, but can explain some.

You first meet me in a Pub, (no idea)
And meet me again in prison. (no idea)
I'm a grandfather to one, (is it Rikku's grandfather)
And called an 'Old Fart' by another. (Well i dont know who but there arent that many important OLD characters ff games)
I later started a partnership with someone, to help future generations. (lol no idea)
Only to then lead a kingdom of my own. (The Al Bhed home town is it)
Now my son and daughter travel the world, (dont know)
And I set up tourist attractions. (he sets up tourist attraction in zanarkand in ffx-2, this and the kindgom one were give aways to me)

ok let me come up with another one (a few minutes later)

I look up in the sky
and see the silver dragon,
and think of all philosophies
I bring with me in wagons.
I look the least,
yet am the most human.
I nearly get killed by a similar beast.
My show is not unlike Truman's.

And called an 'Old Fart' by another. (Well i dont know who but there arent that many important OLD characters ff games) Yuffie called him and 'Old Fart' in FFVII
I later started a partnership with someone, to help future generations. (lol no idea) Started Garden with Edea and Norg in FFVIII
Only to then lead a kingdom of my own. (The Al Bhed home town is it) I was referring to Linblum in FFIX, Regent Cid
Now my son and daughter travel the world, (dont know) Rikku and Brother travel around in FFX and FFX-2
And I set up tourist attractions. (he sets up tourist attraction in zanarkand in ffx-2, this and the kindgom one were give aways to me) Right.

worse than father daugter, as I understand it, brother and yuna are cousins(based off what cid says after trying to kidnap her) so brother falls in "love" with his cousin in x-2. Something odd to think about.

§håd0w
01-16-2005, 10:32 PM
Yeah, I pointed that out a few days after the release of FFX-2, then it got shot down.

Riddle time:

I was a weapon with mass destruction, so they said.
Only to show up again with three times the reward.
Next time you see me, I won't be the same.
But only to come back, with twice of what I was before.

What am I?

This may be a little vague, but give it a shot.

I'll take a guess, because the riddle is pretty vague. I don't think it's Ultima Weapon. I can't say about Excalibur because I don't know a great deal about it.

So I think it's the Ragnarok.

In an area so deep that light won't shine.
Where it is hot as hell.

I'm not going to try to make this have rhyme or rhythm, so just go with it.

And you shall find the Land Of this.
The destructive force of carbon shall relinquish it
If you have sticky fingers.
Also, having the blade of a saw
And the partner to a screwdriver
Will unlock the door to this item.
When your toils have been rewarded
You may be tempted to Throw it at something.

What is the item in question?

I've concluded it is from FFVIII, though I'm not positive on this. But I do know here is only one weapon that uses Saw Blade for remodeling, and that is Rinoa's Rising Sun. Which requires Saw Blade and Screws.

Am I right?

TheSpoonyBard

Yes, you are right, but there were more clues than the one you found.

Look to the east

The destructive force of carbon shall relinquish it
If you have sticky fingers. (You can Steal it from Diamond WEAPON in FFVII)
Also, having the blade of a saw
And the partner to a screwdriver
Will unlock the door to this item. (Remodelled from Saw Blades and Screws in FFVIII)
When your toils have been rewarded
You may be tempted to Throw it at something. (Amarant can Throw a Rising Sun at the enemy in FFIX)

Yeah, those makes sense. It was the other clues that tipped me off. I've gotta get some food, but I'll be back in 30 minutes and then there will be another riddle, heh. :D

The things I do to save super cool threads...(sigh)...

This one is semi obscure but easy and stupid, not to mention the rhyme scheme sucks, so it shouldn't take long... but i'm moving so I might not be able to confirm or deny for awhile... if I take too long just go on without me.

I could be a million, no one knows
I guess thats just the way it goes
I'm undead as a doornail, not yet dust or ash
after the second time round, you'll have kicked my *SS.

Who am I?

Now, whoever answers this one, POST THE NEXT RIDDLE DAMMIT!!!
