ff7 riddles

[Anniexo]

Yep your turn

[TheSpoonyBard]

No one has posted in a while so here's a riddle.

My superiority is world-renowned
My skills surpass you all
A puppet on a string, I battle thee
Your success shall grant you freedom

[Randgris]

Sephiroth?

[FinalCetra]

I think it is Dyne.

[TheSpoonyBard]

It isn't Sephiroth or Dyne, though Dyne appears at the same point in the game.

[BG-57]

Teioh?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Correct, BG-57.

[BG-57]

On the northern slopes
Rarely encountered
Will hammer you
In both ways

[I Don't Need A Name]

er......Tonbery or Iron Giant?

[Earith]

hammer me? O.O Uhmm... Jenova?

[Earith]

Oh wait! Twinhead, the boss?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Gigas?

[Clone 01]

yeah actually i think iron giant is a good guess

[Lost Number]

Megaton, metetron, however you spell it, throws the shields?

[BG-57]

ForestOwl is correct, the answer is Gigas!

It's found only on the slopes of the Northern Crater in one location. It can punch the party and also can drop Earth Mallets.

[TheSpoonyBard]

That surprised me, I wasn't too confident about that guess. Nice riddle.

A great power borne by the weak
Granted to the strong and successful
Efforts and patience must be sustained
If you wish to reap the rewards

Let's see if someone can beat BG-57 to the answer.

[BG-57]

Thanks.

I'll be the first to guess if nothing else. Hmm, could be several things here...is it Aeris' Great Gospel limit break?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Just changed a few words.

It isn't Great Gospel.

[BG-57]

Lucky Sevens?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Nope.

[BG-57]

Golden Chocobo breeding?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Not chocobo breeding. Let me know if/when you want a hint.

[BG-57]

Well, I'm turning in. By all means leave a hint though.

[TheSpoonyBard]

It can be seen, but not obtained, one disc before you come into possession of it.

[ffxfreak93]

sephiroth is the answer to all

[Bowser]

Red XIII's Cosmo Memory? Or the Odin materia.

[TheSpoonyBard]

It isn't Sephiroth, Cosmo Memory or Odin.

[Clone 01]

black materia?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Nope.

[Clone 01]

give some kind of hint

[TheSpoonyBard]

I've already given two.

It can be seen, but not obtained, one disc before you come into possession of it.
The Huge Materia are related in some way.

Here's another:

It has appeared in all numbered FFs except FFI, FFIII, FFIV and FFV.

[Clone 01]

[Clone 01]

Summons?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Not summons.

[Clone 01]

[Anniexo]

[TheSpoonyBard]

It isn't Holy or the WEAPONs. Read the hints again.

[Clone 01]

is it an item? a key item?

[Bowser]

Phoenix/Phoenix Down?

[TheSpoonyBard]

It's not an item/key item, and it isn't Phoenix or a Phoenix Down.

Although, in some ways, Phoenix is very close.

[Bowser]

artificial animal girl

[Project G]

as no one has gone in a while, i will

artificial animal girl
purposely for your entertainment
willing to share my paint
to make you something your not


Ooh ooh ooh me me, that bee girl in the Honeybee Inn! Whats her name? Bubbi I think?

[abrojtm]

You didn't even give me a day to post a new riddle. Yea, the answer is definitely a Honeybee Inn girl.

[TheSpoonyBard]

I agree. d&#163;v!l'$ ph0&#163;n!x, not everyone can be online at once. I think 15 hours is too soon to jump in. You should leave at least 24 hours before posting a riddle when it isn't your turn.

[Project G]

Is it my turn then?

[Clone 01]

yeah go on

[abrojtm]

It's not your turn yet, d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x hasn't confirmed your answer.

And I lost a turn :(.

[Clone 01]

ok wel when he confirms it then it'll be your go

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

yes the answer is the honeybee in girl

i apologise for jumping in, i thought it had been longer than that

tel u wot, y don't u both post a riddle. then whoever guesses one of them first gets to post the next riddle. if someone answers the second riddle though, only the first person may post a new one, ok?

[TheSpoonyBard]

In case there's any discrepancy, the two people to whom d&#163;v!l'$ ph0&#163;n!x is referring are abrojtm and Forbidden_Romance.

Although I didn't even realise there was a competition for getting the most number of riddles correct.

Are there gold, silver, and bronze medals involved? :greenie:

[TheSpoonyBard]

There's not really any competition. I was bored and decided to make a scoreboard.

We're still waiting for abrojtm or Forbidden_Romance to post a riddle.

[I Don't Need A Name]

hey im last! thats worse! ha! hurry up!!

[abrojtm]

I'll have one up sometime today if FR doesn't get around to it first.

EDIT: Oh what the heck I'll just make up a crappy one real quick.

This steel bladed sword
The wrath of the gods
Strikes from the heavens
From the one eyed raven.

[TheSpoonyBard]

Odin/Zantetsuken?

[Lost Number]

Odin.

EDIT:Too late.

[Clone 01]

wel everyone's lucky, i only joined a few days ago and i don't evenhave a place yet!:(

[abrojtm]

Odin/Zantetsuken?

Yea it's Zantetsuken. Too easy.

[TheSpoonyBard]

Let's see what sort of riddle I can make up at half 3 in the morning.

Guardian of the new
Giver of old life
Master to the unrelenting
Slave to the knowledgeable.

[Clone 01]

phoenix?

[BG-57]

Sphinxaur/a?

[TheSpoonyBard]

It isn't Phoenix. Sphinxara is in FFVIII.

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

bugenhagen

[TheSpoonyBard]

Nope.

Its a boss.

I won't be posting the scoreboard regularly as it breaks up the flow, but I'll bee keeping it updated. Just let me know if/when you want to see it.

[Halenite]

Maybe one of the Jenova's?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Nope.

[Clone 01]

is it ultimate weapon?

[Clone 01]

oh or that boss in the Shinra mansion? i can't remember his name, he's the one when you open the safe.

[BG-57]

clone103, I think that boss was called Lost Number. Look at LN's avatar.

Hojo?

[Lost Number]

Im the one in the Shinra mansion.

[Clone 01]

oh yeh,lol.aint that a coincidence!

[Lost Number]

Not really.
Safer Sephiroth?

[Clone 01]

yeh i suppose not,ok i'll ask properly this time. Is it Lost Number?

[abrojtm]

Gi Nattak?

[TheSpoonyBard]

None of the guesses so far have been correct.

The second line describes one of the boss' moves

[Neco Arc]

Gi Nattak or the Guard Scorpion?

[abrojtm]

Demon's Gate?

[TheSpoonyBard]

None of the above.

[Bowser]

Hojo?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Hojo is the knowledgeable one, but he isn't the answer.

[Bowser]

Proud Clod?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Hojo wasn't the master of the Proud Clod.

Think more towards the beginning of the game.

[Project G]

Dr. Gast? or whatever his name was that married Ilfana

[TheSpoonyBard]

Gast isn't a boss.

[Project G]

Heidegger?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Its not Heidegger, though the boss' name does begin with an H.

[Project G]

Hellectic Hojo?

[Clone 01]

That big metal thing that you fight after the motor bike chase when ur escaping from midgar?

[TheSpoonyBard]

FR, I drop hints for a reason :D

This boss is slighty before clone103's guess.

[Clone 01]

the boss in the elavators in the shinra building?

[TheSpoonyBard]

No, before that.

[I Don't Need A Name]

H0512?

[Clone 01]

the one at the very start in the mako reactor? or the one in don corneo's sewer? ( sorry i can't remember any names)

[Project G]

Hundred Gunner/ Heli Gunner

[TheSpoonyBard]

final_andy got it right, and joins the scoreboard in last place.

Guardian of the new (Is summoned by Hojo to protect his experiments - new knowledge)
Giver of old life (Uses Reanimagic in battle)
Master to the unrelenting (Commands the H0512-OPT)
Slave to the knowledgeable. (Under the control of Hojo)

Your turn, final_andy.

[Clone 01]

Dang!!

[yunafan11]

come on... i'm waiting to play... grr... lol.

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

it's been over 24hrs since forestowl gave the answer to final_andy. if u all like u can wait for him to come back, but i now give permission for someone to make a new riddle

[TheSpoonyBard]

It's been 53 minutes.

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

OH! i thought today was the 27th! sorry guys!!!

[yunafan11]

LOL. 50 mins... 24 hours... whats the difference? LOL.

[Clone 01]

mirth and merriment?

[Lost Number]

Dont ask, just dont ask.

[Clone 01]

LOL! ok i'll take your word for it.

[Lost Number]

All these nOObs, honestly. When is ithe next riddle comin?

[TheSpoonyBard]

The next riddle will be posted when final_andy comes back online, or anyone can post a new riddle tomorrow at 17:15 GMT if final_andy hasn't shown up.

[Clone 01]

ok its bin over a day so im gona make one.

Blade like wings.
enemies beware.
the sky is black.
tremble in fear.

its incredibly bad but this is my first one so dont mind me.

[Lost Number]

Zuu?

[Clone 01]

nope, not Zuu

[I Don't Need A Name]

sorry i didnt post! err is it that enemy that uses Harrier?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Tonadu?

[Clone 01]

HINT:You use it.

[Lost Number]

Organics?

[Clone 01]

sorry dat wasnt a very helpful hint.

HINT 2:Summons

[Lost Number]

Bahamut
or Bahamut Zero

[Clone 01]

yep, Bahamut,t was a fairly bad riddle but it was my 1st one so ill get better wit expirience ( i hope). ur go!

[Lost Number]

Royal and anger,
The quadratic guards me,
One in green,
One in white,
One in horrors witness,
One not to be seen at all,

[Darksummon]

Complete guess, but...Godo?

[abrojtm]

Is it the Northern Crater? The WEAPONs are essentially guarding that.

[Lost Number]

No.

[Rice Cake]

Is it Sephiroth?

[Clone 01]

is it the black materia? because u need the four different huge matirias to be able to get it (i think)

[BG-57]

President Shinra?

He dresses up as a king at one point. The guards could be Shinra executives.

[Darksummon]

Oh yeah, that makes sense: Heidegger dresses in green, Hojo dresses in white, Palmer saw Sephiroth kill the first President (horrors witness) and Reeve is "not to be seen at all" because he's controlling Cait Sith.
Also, I think 'Rufus' means both 'red' and 'anger'.

So I'll say Rufus too, but BG-57 obviously guessed before me.

[Lost Number]

No not Rufus. You are taking horrors witness too literaly. Its a joke line, really.

[BG-57]

Actually I was guessing Rufus' father. But I suspect that is also wrong.

[Lost Number]

100% wrong. It makes more sense when you think outside the box:D

[Clone 01]

give a hint

[BG-57]

Lateral thinking is not my strong suit at all. :sweatdrop

Is it the stage show at Gold Saucer?

[Lost Number]

What do you assosiate with Royal and Anger?

[BG-57]

Princess Guard?

[Lost Number]

*sigh*

[BG-57]

Maybe Bahamut then?

[Lost Number]

No.

[BG-57]

:eep:

Kaisar Knuckle?

[Lost Number]

No. This actually easy, you know that?

[BG-57]

Easy/difficult are relative terms. I've often been surprised by what I considered my easy riddles taking many guesses to answer.


Vincent's limit breaks?

[Lost Number]

No.

[Darksummon]

Royal=
King
Queen
Purple
Crown
Princess
Prince

Anger=
Shout
Yell
Red
Punch

Red XIII?

[Lost Number]

Darksummon is right on top of the answer.

[Clone 01]

Red XII's father?

[Lost Number]

No. Look at the lists.

[TheSpoonyBard]

Cait Sith's Megaphones?

[Project G]

This is a completely random guess but hey!

HP Shout

[Lost Number]

Wrong.

[Clone 01]

random guess but,the turks?

[Lost Number]

Still no.

[TheSpoonyBard]

Can you tell us what we're looking for? Is it a 'what' or a 'who'?

[Lost Number]

Who. Its not an object.

[abrojtm]

Is it Cait Sith/Reeve? Royal because he wears a crown, Angry like HP shout and stuff...?

[TheSpoonyBard]

King Behemoth?

[Lost Number]

No, no, Ive shown you the answer about a dozen times!

[TheSpoonyBard]

Lost Number? The Irish flag?

[Lost Number]

Lost Number is correct! I always do LN.

[TheSpoonyBard]

I'll remember that. I don't see how it fits in with the riddle though. Oh well.

Repeat your escape
Claim the reward
Exquisite yet useless
A complete lack of consistency.

[Lost Number]

Royal = Purple
Anger = Red
Four guards = The four numbers in the safe
Green - The plants
White - The piano
Horrors witness - The creaky floorboard
Not to be seen at all - Invisible ink

[TheSpoonyBard]

Yea, the penny dropped just as I posted. Doesn't quadratic mean square? That made me think of the safe.

Anyway, my riddle now.

[Clone 01]

the battle arena? or tissue?

[TheSpoonyBard]

No, but that's marginally similar.

[abrojtm]

Masamune?

[I Don't Need A Name]

is it a what or a where?

[Magoichi92]

Battle,
Fight,
Attack,
Random Battle.

[TheSpoonyBard]

It's a 'what'.

[Magoichi92]

Was i right or wrong(i hate this but it is so fun)

[TheSpoonyBard]

You and abrojtm were wrong.

Why do you hate it?

[anacacia]

Flee?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Not Flee. I don't think Flee is even in FFVII.

[Magoichi92]

But run is lol & no i don't hate you.

[Clone 01]

super sweepers?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Nope.

[abrojtm]

Parasol?

[Clone 01]

1/35 soldiers?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Both wrong.

[Project G]

Mithrall?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Not Mythril.

You win it from the Gold Saucer

.___.
{0,o} Keep guessing!
/)__)
-"-"-

[Project G]

Keystone?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Nope.

[Project G]

I give up!

Flayer?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Wrong.

[Clone 01]

GP?

[TheSpoonyBard]

No.

It's a Chocobo Square prize.

[Clone 01]

Enemy away?

[TheSpoonyBard]

How is Enemy Away 'exquisite yet useless'?

[Clone 01]

i dont no. i cant remember anything in the races!i can remember bolt plume?antartic wind?elixir?

[TheSpoonyBard]

No, nothing like that.

It's a peice of equipment

[abrojtm]

Precious Watch?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Correct, aborjtm, though I virtually gave the answer away.

Repeat your escape (You had to race a chocobo to escape the Corel Prison)
Claim the reward (Precious Watch is a Chocobo Square prize)
Exquisite yet useless (Exquisite = Precious, useless as it provides no defence)
A complete lack of consistency (It has no linked slots)

[abrojtm]

Yea, I would've guessed it after hint one if I had logged on.
Give me about 20 mins to think of a riddle.

On the sandy shores.
So close to the sun
Or even pretty close
To the big ole' gun.

You'll find us to guard
In the way of the light.
To freeze you or just
To give you a bite.

[TheSpoonyBard]

Beach Plugs?

[abrojtm]

I must really suck at making riddles :(. It's your turn.

[TheSpoonyBard]

You're not bad at making riddles.

Akin to the aerial cataclysm
Sided with the adversary
Despair and penance
The escort does writhe within.

[Shiny]

You're not bad at making riddles.

Akin to the aerial cataclysm
Sided with the adversary
Despair and penance
The escort does writhe within.
Whoa. Okay...now in English. I don't understand. :-\

[Clone 01]

Whoa. Okay...now in English. I don't understand. :-\
lol! i agree! translation needed.....

[TheSpoonyBard]

That is English. Use a dictionary.

[Clone 01]

jeez! ur level of intelligence is way beyond me ForestOwl,i think ill wait for the next riddle!

[BG-57]

Meteor?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Not Meteor.

[Shin Gouken]

Ultima weapon

[TheSpoonyBard]

Nope.

[Bart's Friend Milhouse]

Cait Sith

[TheSpoonyBard]

Nope.

[Bart's Friend Milhouse]

is there a thread like this for FF8. I'd might be a bit better at it if there was

[TheSpoonyBard]

There was this thread, but it hasn't been active for a month of so. I don't think anyone would object to a new one being made.

[Shin Gouken]

I'm having serious trouble with this one. Ive been sat here with my thinking cap on for the last ten minutes :(

Related to a catastrophie of the air
sided with the enemy
Without hope, punishment for sin/voluntary suffering
The attending/guard has agony within


:confused:

so its not a catastrophie of the air, its just related to one
so its not the enemy, its sided with the enemy
there isnt hope and is punishment for sin/voluntary suffering
there is a guard in agony

i can only think of one possible answer. Cloud.
A catastrophie of the air could refer to shinra HQ
he once worked for shinra
he may be punishing himself for his past
his insides are hurtin

how about a clue :confused:

[TheSpoonyBard]

Your translation is spot on. Sadly, your answer is not.

Integral to the story, yet entirely possible to overlook.

[Shin Gouken]

I can think only of lucrecia and barret.

Barret may hold himself responsible for the death of biggs and wedge and co but i didn't notice it eating him up much

And lucrecia is actually kinda the source of everything so very relevent to the story but easy to miss.

Unless this isn't a person.

[Fonzie]

It sounds like lucrecia too me. She's related to Seph. and he flys. She's part of jenova i think. She's really a big part of the story kinda also

[TheSpoonyBard]

I knew I should've waited a while before handing out hints. shinangel2292, you're correct; it was Lucrecia.

Akin to the aerial cataclysm (Sephiroth believe Jenova (the calamity from the skies) is his mother, when in fact Lucrecia is his mother)
Sided with the adversary (Lucrecia chose to be with Hojo instead of Vincent)
Despair and penance (Vincent punished himself for not protecting Lucrecia from Hojo)
The escort does writhe within. (More of the above)

[Shin Gouken]

Woot i totally rock :cool: ummm i will have to make a riddle tomorrow after work which will be around 7pm (my time) so if you'd rather squall isenhart can go seein as he got it right too :)

[TheSpoonyBard]

He's not online right now. There's a 24 hour allowance before your turn can be offered, so that's fine. I look forward to your riddle.

[Fonzie]

I'll make one i guess...

All i do is sleep
and mumble sometimes
but when you give me some object
i'll give you protection from the skys
rage.


Ha :D

[Randgris]

The sleeping man in the Junon mine

[Fonzie]

yeah

[Shin Gouken]

Pffft steal my turn :mad: :rolleyes2

Seeing as no-one is around right now, i'll knock one out........that sounds wrong :confused:


I bring light in the darkness
I bring death, and protection from potential death
I bring slow but painful judgement
