[Lost Number]

skatehatedestroy has it.
Sinspawn of the human mind - Machina

My essence abhors - Her religion hates it."Essence" infers religion.

The staunch wall which panders to them - Crusaders.

I set my will against - She tries to stop them

And obviously, she fails.

[Psydekick]

Oh good riddle it was a tough one:)

[Lost Number]

Thank you.

[skatehatedestroy]

lost number, you can make another, i cant think of one

[Psydekick]

I think we should let someone else have a go apart from LN:)

[Lost Number]

Uh,
The undead headress adorns me,
Divine immolation clothes me,
Celtic power weakens me,
who am I?

Yes, it is easy.

[Awesomeman]

Yunalesca

[Lost Number]

No.

[Awesomeman]

Seymor Flux?

[Lost Number]

No:D . I didnt expect youse to have this difficulty. Think abstractly.

[TheSpoonyBard]

The only Celtic power I can think of in FFX is Shiva, so I'll guess Ifrit.

[Lost Number]

Yep. Ifrit.
The undead headress is Seymours hairstyle. It sort of looks like his horns. The fayth were followers of Yevon so holy fire surrounds him.

[TheSpoonyBard]

Informant to the brave
Victim of the believers
Protector of the castle
Two words is all I say.

[Lost Number]

The priest bloke who lulu used to guard but gave up? Or the other one?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Father Zuke? No. Lady Ginnem (sp?) ? No.

[TheSpoonyBard]

Nope. The person's name is mentioned by a member of your party.

[Halenite]

Maester Kelk Ronso?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Nope.

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

Informant to the brave
Victim of the believers
Protector of the castle
Two words is all I say.

isaaru?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Nope.

[I Took the Red Pill]

Lord Mi'hen (sp?)

Informant to the brave
Victim of the believers
Protector of the castle
Two words is all I say.

[TheSpoonyBard]

a_dollar_20's got it.

[a_dollar_20]

omg this is like the happiest day of my life

[TheSpoonyBard]

Maechen?

[a_dollar_20]

wow that was fast
well i geuss only Machean is that annoying

[TheSpoonyBard]

Believer in the 'truth'
Upholder of the law
Puppet to the powerful
Preventer of the war

[a_dollar_20]

kelk ronso?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Nope.

[a_dollar_20]

yevon

[TheSpoonyBard]

Not Yevon.

[Lost Number]

Issaru?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Nope.

[Heero Yuy NWZC]

Believer in the 'truth'
must be someone who believes in the laws of Yevon. so it is not an al bhed. either that or what they mean by 'truth' in that maner is that the laws of Yevon are bullocks.

Upholder of the law
must be an authority figure or someone strong.

Puppet to the powerful
a person who was used by those old guys.

Preventer of the war
must be a powerful person. since no negotiations were made in the game, must be a warrior.

I'm guessin...Tidus or Auron?

[Lost Number]

Yuna? Or the monk leader..Aurons friend...whatshisname.

[Heero Yuy NWZC]

maybe...sounds close.

[TheSpoonyBard]

Not Tidus, Auron, Yuna or Kinoc.

I should add that the war mentioned in the last line went ahead, despite the attempts of this person.

[Lost Number]

Wakka! Follower of Yevon, dislikes all bhed, and gives up his grudge.

[TheSpoonyBard]

Nope.

[Lost Number]

The Guado guy Tromell!

[Little Blue]

O'aka?

EDIT, Shelinda?

[Lost Number]

Kimhari.

[TheSpoonyBard]

Aurons Ghost is correct.

[Heero Yuy NWZC]

oh well. ur up dude

[Little Blue]

Yay!

Er, this might be pretty bad, but anyway.

In the land of water you'll battle me,
But careful you must be,
For within me is a precious person,
And controlling me a soon to be guardian.

[Lost Number]

Sin.
No wait the boss in the moonflow with Rikku controlin it.

[Little Blue]

I want a name...

[Lost Number]

Tight wee...
Oblitzerator, or is that the one in Luca. YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN!!!

[Little Blue]

It's called Extractor, but close enough.

You're up

[TheSpoonyBard]

Extractor.

[Lost Number]

I pass, I dont have time.

[TheSpoonyBard]

Here's an easy one

Pursure the insects
The insignia of rings
You cannot obtain me
Until you learn to fly

[I Don't Need A Name]

Anima?

[abrojtm]

Saturn Sigil.

[I Don't Need A Name]

oh yeah! i thought that but i didnt put it because i forgot that you need the airship!

[Heero Yuy NWZC]

sounds like anima to me.

[TheSpoonyBard]

Saturn Sigil.
Correct.

[Heero Yuy NWZC]

crabs!

[Waveth]

easy one:

I'm just too cool for all of you,
But I'm also considered hot,
People shiver at the sight of me,
I'll take off my cape and show you what I got.

[TheSpoonyBard]

Shiva.

[Waveth]

correct

[Halenite]

it wasn't even your turn. It's abrojtm's

[I Don't Need A Name]

yeah but he needs to hurry up then!

[Heero Yuy NWZC]

it is too late now. someone else post a riddle

[abrojtm]

I'm here. Gimmie five mins to make one real quick.

After a short repose
The poison seeps in
Wet and dry
Alone.

Where am I?

[Tavrobel]

I'm here. Gimmie five mins to make one real quick.

After a short repose
The poison seeps in
Wet and dry
Alone.

Where am I?

Al Bhed ruins, where you fight Geosegaeno.

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

bikanel island, after sins attack at lake macalania

[abrojtm]

Correct, Phoenix.

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

w00t! i FINALLY got one right!

here with my mentor
confined, hopeless
above me, my leesh
below me, my death

where/when in the game is this?

[Lost Number]

Omega dungeon? Ultima weapon.

[abrojtm]

Is leesh even a word? Did you mean lease, leash...?

[Little Blue]

I'm pretty sure that leesh is like the thing that you attach to a dog's collar to stop it from running away when you're walking it...

Anyway, is it the Cavern of the Stolen Fayth? When you first go in and have to defeat Ginnem?

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

none of the guesses are right so far

yes, i did mean the leesh as in a dog collar attachment thingy ?:|?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Is it in Bevelle when Tidus and Auron are imprisoned by Kinoc?

[Heero Yuy NWZC]

must be, ForestOwl.


here with my mentor
confined, hopeless
above me, my leesh
below me, my death

1: with auron
2: imprisoned
3: the chain holding the cage up
4: the bottomless chasm below the cages.

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

well done ForestOwl, i knew it'd b u who got it

[abrojtm]

The word is leash.

[TheSpoonyBard]

One half of the amalgamation,
The coming together of enemies.
Once the guardian of youth,
Now his undying servant.

[Heero Yuy NWZC]

amalgamation???

[TheSpoonyBard]

A consolidation/merger/the coming together of two separate entities.

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

One half of the amalgamation,
The coming together of enemies.
Once the guardian of youth,
Now his undying servant.

anima

the amalgamation is his 2 sides
not sure bout the enemies bit
guardian of youth, seymours mother became anima so he could protect himself
seymour now abuses anima

[TheSpoonyBard]

Actually the first two lines refer to the joining of the Guado and human races when Jyscal and Anima were married, but you got the right answer.

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

w00t! finally!

protected from sight
protected from entry
the keys in ur hand
from those of the land

where is this?

[Lost Number]

Is it the battle field or whatever you call the area you reach by password (or is it search?)

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

nope

[TheSpoonyBard]

Baaj Temple?

[FadedDreams]

oooh hold up is it in ffx-2 where they're on besaid island and the monks inside the temple give them the key to the secret passageway near the beach???? that's the first thing i thought of, but if it's in ffx, then i'm not really sure :p that's my guess!

[Little Blue]

Remiem Temple?

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

all wrong so far. we're stayig in ffx btw

HINT: you can see the "key" in tidus' hand after obtaining it

[Lost Number]

Celestial Weapons ( The mirror?)

[Tabris]

Cactuar Nation?

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

it's valley of the cactuars, but yeh ur rite! :D

[Psydekick]

Well new riddle:)

[Tabris]

There are more than one of me
You can hide underneath me
But that won't give you
the symbol of femininity

[BG-57]

Lightning Towers on Thunder Plains?

They protect you from lightning, but you need to dodge 200 lightning strikes to get the Venus Sigil.

[Tabris]

Yes! Easy one, I guess...

[Heero Yuy NWZC]

new riddle, now! :D

[BG-57]

Okay, okay already! :greenie:

Cra sicd ryja aqecdat
Pid mega so cecdan
Cra nasyehc hysamacc
Ycg uin lremtnah ypuid ran

[ch1nkaling]

spoken from braska's point of view, yuna's mother

[Heero Yuy NWZC]

let's put it in english now so i don't have to waste my time and translate it.

[Psydekick]

Oh i can't be botherd to find the threads that translte al bhed:(

[Little Blue]

Is it Cid talking about his wife?

[BG-57]

Auron's Ghost is correct! :)

A Google search will turn up dozens of Al Bhed translators.

She must have existed
But like my sister
She remains nameless
Ask our children about her

The language was a clue in itself.

[Little Blue]

cool...

Sinspawn I am
Water I live for
Grateful I admit
And a new goal I have

Who am I?

[Psydekick]

:) Ok errr That sinspawn after you Tidus falls off the boat:)

[Little Blue]

Nope

[BG-57]

Is it that aquatic monster Tidus has to escape from in Baaj Temple and later can go back to defeat to get Anima?

[TheSpoonyBard]

BG-57, it's called Geosgaeno.

My guess is Evrae/Evrae Altana.

[BG-57]

I keep thinking of Gerogero, but that's in FFVIII.

[Little Blue]

no...

[TheSpoonyBard]

*Looks at sig and avatar*

Maechen?

[Little Blue]

hehe, no...

[TheSpoonyBard]

Can we have a clue?

[Little Blue]

It is a person.

[TheSpoonyBard]

Tidus? Meh. I'm resorting to random guesses until another clue is given.

[Little Blue]

Tidus is the answer.

He is sinspawn (Jecht is sin, Tidus is Jechts spawn)
He plays blitzball so he lives for water
He admits he is grateful to the bahamut fayth when you speak to him after speaking to mika
He has a new goal, instead of going home, he wants to defeat Sin

Congrats on a good guess.

Your turn...

[TheSpoonyBard]

Thanks. I always miss the obvious answers.

The lord of nature
Perceived as an unsurmountable obstacle
The light of the follower's faith
Shall conquer with ease.

[Tabris]

Lord Ochu?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Yep.

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

it's been 3 days since the answer was given, shudn't we just pass the riddle on!?

[McLovin']

To keep things going:

Kick, kick, kick...
Potion, potion, potion...
Kick, kick, kick...
Potion, potion, potion...

[Twilight Edge]

Wakka battling?

[McLovin']

No.

[Heero Yuy NWZC]

that riddle is gay! :laugh::tongue:

hmmm...i don't think it is a character. is it a monster?:confused:

[TheSpoonyBard]

The suitcase on the S.S. Liki.

[McLovin']

yep

surprising you got it :tongue:

[Heero Yuy NWZC]

grrr...:D

[TheSpoonyBard]

A wave man of long ago
A wanderer with a fixed location
Protection is instant
Though allegiance must earned.

[McLovin']

I think its some sort of ability.

[TheSpoonyBard]

Nope.

[McLovin']

The most obvious would probably be Machaen or Rin maybe.

[TheSpoonyBard]

Neither of those are right.

[lulusgirl]

Auron?

[BG-57]

Yojimbo?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Yojimbo?
Yep.

[McLovin']

Wow. That is 3 riddle threads in a row BG-57!

[BG-57]

I got lucky. I'm good at guessing riddles that are literal. :)

I understood everything except the 'wave man' part. Is that a literal translation of 'Yojimbo'?

The blind queen lies in repose
Until she is called for
She bestows this gift
Perhaps a mercy in the end

[Tabris]

Anima?

[BG-57]

Close, but no.

[McLovin']

Animas Fayth?

[BG-57]

Again, close.

I'm asking for the gift, not the giver.

[TheSpoonyBard]

Oblivion? The 'gift' could be the death of the fiends/enemies.

[Rikkugrl12]

ummm is it a person? cause i think it is yunalesca, cause of the " mercy in the end"

[BG-57]

ForestOwl is correct, the answer is Oblivion! :)

The Blind Queen refers to Anima's overdrive, with metal bands over empty eye sockets and a circle of spines forming a crown on her head.

[tidusguy#1]

k, i think i got one, its ded easy though!!!!

i dive, i swim, im like a dove
and found some love.
i fought and fought and jumped from the skies above

[TheSpoonyBard]

tidusguy#1, it is my turn to post a riddle.

Fourth in line
Yet last in order
When the third is harassed
The power is unleashed.

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

tidusguy#1's riddles was tidus
he swims
falls in love with yuna
jumps from the airship at the end

but we're ignoring that

i got no idea on forestowl's. can we get a hint? or do u wanna wait a while? the fourth in line could be an aeon making it shiva, but that's all i can think of. . .

[TheSpoonyBard]

As with all my riddles it draws on your knowledge of things outside the game. It's too soon to give a hint.

[tidusguy#1]

oh, soz, carry on lol

[Lost Number]

One of the Al Bhed primers? No. 4?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Nope.

[Little Blue]

Is it Anima's Cloister of trials?

[TheSpoonyBard]

No, but you're as close as d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x was.

[So-Luna]

the destruction sphere in shivas temple???

[BG-57]

The Magus Sisters?

[TheSpoonyBard]

You've almost got it, BG-57.

[Lost Number]

Delta attack?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Yep.

[Lost Number]

Skip.

[I Don't Need A Name]

I wil go then, its very easy

When darkness covers
Water flys
Apendages grow
Oblivion
Last line doesnt refer to Anima by the way

[Hambone]

It's a stupid guess, but, blitzball?

[I Don't Need A Name]

nope

[TheSpoonyBard]

Sin at Operation Mi'ihen?

[I Don't Need A Name]

nah your kinda on the right lines though

[Hambone]

When Zanarkand got attacked by Sin?

[Heero Yuy NWZC]

When Sin opens his mouth?

[Hambone]

Giga Graviton.

[Carl the Llama]

I wil go then, its very easy

When darkness covers
Water flys
Apendages grow
Oblivion
Last line doesnt refer to Anima by the way
When darkness covers... it was night when sin attacked Zanakand
Water flys.... when you see Auron step in a puddle the water flys
Apendages grow.... not to sure
Oblivion.... Zanakand is destroyed

[Heero Yuy NWZC]

you suck if you get that right Kupo Man :mad:...:D

[I Don't Need A Name]

Kupo Man was right with his first guess. Apendages grow is where the tentacles what release the sinspawn appear

[Hambone]

pass

[BG-57]

This was once a home
To a tenent that was lost
Perhaps even kidnapped
Now it has a new resident

[Tabris]

Baaj Temple?

[Dell]

Zanarkand, Al Bhed Home?Bikanel Island?

[BG-57]

Tabris is correct, the answer is Baaj Temple. :)

The new tenent is Anima. The old one is unknown, but could have been Yojimbo.

[Tabris]

Yay! Ok, a new riddle coming up:

I am the winner
strike me, and I will strike back
I am going further than those before me
To obtain me, you must win the prize

[TheSpoonyBard]

World Champion.

[Tabris]

You're right, the Lone Forest Ranger.

I need to come up with more difficult riddles...

[TheSpoonyBard]

I pass.

[Rikkugrl12]

ill go
i am not human
i live in the cold
i like to freeze
and like to snap
who am i?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Shiva?

[Rikkugrl12]

lol yeah your go

[TheSpoonyBard]

Once of the air
Now of the sea.
Twice the power of life
Shall see the end of me.

It's pretty easy.

[Heero Yuy NWZC]

that flying monster that protected Bevelle?

[Rikkugrl12]

oh yeah probably uh wasnt that uh evria um i dont no how to spell its name

[Heero Yuy NWZC]

yeah, that's why I didn't say it's name. I forgot how to spell it too. :D

[TheSpoonyBard]

You mean Evrae? No, its not her.

[Rikkugrl12]

oh i thought it was a guy lol

[Tabris]

Dark Evrae? If that's her name, the zombified version.

[TheSpoonyBard]

Correct, Tabris. Evrae Altana is the name you were looking for.

[Heero Yuy NWZC]

what? it is the same beast! if someone has the answer but someone else gives the name later and then gets it right, that is unfair. btw, i said protected, not protects, there's a difference between present and past.

[I Don't Need A Name]

No its not the same beast though! Evrae Atlanta is the zombifyed version! Evrae and Evrae Atlanta are two different monsters

[Heero Yuy NWZC]

it is the same monster just zombified after the first encounter. she said and I quote:

Once of the air
so it has to be the same monster then. if someone has the answer but then it was the name that was the specific answer, then that is just giving it away then.

[TheSpoonyBard]

First, you said 'that flying monster', which suggested to me that your answer was Evrae. Evrae Altana does not fly, she swims. Second, Evrae cannot be killed by 2 Phoenix Downs, which is what the third and fourth lines of the riddle refer to. Thirdly, Tabris specified the zombie version in his/her answer. Fourthly, I'm not a girl.

[Heero Yuy NWZC]

sry about the gender mix up(i always go by avatars and that screws me up), but you said once of the air which refers to the monster Evrae, and I said protected which means that it used to but now it doesn't(it now swims and is called Evrae Altana).

[Tabris]

I will await putting out a new riddle until this discussion is solved, in case Heero get's the to do it. :) (Oh, and I'm a "her").

[abrojtm]

Saying that Evrae and Evrae Altana are the exact same monster and answering "that flying thing" would be like me answering "That blue haired guy" for a riddle that regarded Seymour.

[BG-57]

I believe the tacit understanding in this thread is that the one who posts the riddle decides which answers are adequate.

[Heero Yuy NWZC]

abrojtm, i didn't just put "that flying monster". I made it more specific to where it cuts down to only one possible answer. and Evrae and Evrae Atlanta are the same monster.


Once of the air
Now of the sea.
see? do you see it now? they are the same as in Evrae once flew above the skies of Bevelle and now it swims, but it is the same monster.

[Dell]

once of the air=maybe talking about evrae altana wing, or could it be that evrae altana is once a flying monster! you don't get that, Heero Yuy NWZC.
Now of the sea=that evrae altana have became a swimmer!!! in the tunnel of bevelle.
the third and the fourth line probably speaking of the zombie one, not living or whatever

[Dell]

Evrae Altana have about 16000 HP while Evrae is 32000 HP, Evrae is the normal version while Altana is an undead. Evrae and Evrae Altana slightly did not have same skill/spell. This concept can be used on Seymour (natus, flux, omnis) too.

[TheSpoonyBard]

I was going to make that point, too, vivi_ultima. Heero, would you say that Seymour Flux, Seymour Omnis and Seymour Natus are the same entity? As BG-57 said, the creator of the riddle chooses which answer to accept. Therefore, I say Tabris is correct and it is her turn to post a riddle.

[Tabris]

Ok, here goes:

You might get a prize
it all depends
do no mistakes
or you journey probably ends

[Heero Yuy NWZC]

when you do the chocobo race to try and get the the sigil for tidus?


oh darn, this does not go with that last line. btw, i was going to pass my turn anyways. :D

[Dell]

fighting Dark Aeons? if you lose then it's game over

[Little Blue]

Doing the lightning stuff for Lulu's sigil

[Tabris]

Nope, none of the above.

[Eiko Guy]

are you talking about that pot that has those eyes in where yojimbo is

[Tabris]

Yes! You're right, eiko guy - it's the Magic Urn. :)

[Eiko Guy]

my riddle is


i save the teams life but i almost kill three
but it was for a reason
dont give me lead

and i stop the lead from kkillin

super easy

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

self destruct?

[anacacia]

I'm just going to take a major guess.

Edea?

[TheSpoonyBard]

anacacia, this is the FFX riddle thread. There's no Edea.

My guess is Seymour.

[Dell]

seymour for me,
he save their lives with anima at luca, miihen highroad by joining yuna and auron
kill three person, game over
reason for yuna's trust
about the lead, I'm blur

[Eiko Guy]

waaaaaaaaay-off

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

sin?

[Dell]

any of Braska's party?Yunalesca?Braska Final Aeons?

[obsessed_wif_yuna]

the crusaders?

[Little Blue]

Wakka?

Any chance of a hint if that's not rght?

[Eiko Guy]

the answer saves you from lead i'll take 2 answers one is a person another is a weak item an give some reason

[BG-57]

Is this lead as in the metal or lead as in something that is in charge of something?

[Eiko Guy]

2nd one

[Eiko Guy]

2nd one

[Little Blue]

Any chance of another hint?

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

heres a reminder t save u havin to scroll up the whole time

i save the teams life but i almost kill three
but it was for a reason
dont give me lead

and i stop the lead from kkillin

hint 1: the answer saves you from lead i'll take 2 answers one is a person another is a weak item an give some reason

hint 2: the lead is sumone/thing thats in charge, not a metal lead

stilll have no idea tho!? ?:|?

[Eiko Guy]

no lead is like the mineral and the answer also almost kills two of the party and 1 of the party is almost killed twice

[TheSpoonyBard]

You've just contradicted yourself there. First say that 'lead' is someone in charge (as in leader), now you say it is an element (Pb). Which is it?

Also, how can the riddle refer to both a person and an item?

[Little Blue]

This riddle is a mess...

Anyway, I'm guessing Tidus since he is the only one I can remember nearly dying twice (both when he's holding on to a ledge about to fall during some fmv's), and both because Jecht was coming for him (ie thats the reason)

[Eiko Guy]

lemme clear this up the answer is someone that saves you from lead the mineral type
tidus was part of the party that almost got killed by this person the riddle is:
i save the teams life but i almost kill three
but it was for a reason
dont give me lead

and i stop the lead from killin the party of 6

the person isnt a person and item i'll except the item as the answer though thats what im saying
another hint that makes this riddle obvious is water is a painful memory

[IceAngel]

Jecht or Sin?

[Dell]

IceAngel, I think you're right, you should prepare a riddle now.

[Little Blue]

Except for the fact that that answer has already been proven wrong earlier...

[Eiko Guy]

nope nope nope none are right i never thought this woukd be hard

[Spammerman]

Yojimbo?

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

is it yuna?

the lead (Pb) are the bullets of a gun and the yuna saves 6 (the rest of em) from being shot by kinoc n co. during the weddin scene by threatening to jump

[TheSpoonyBard]

It isn't that the riddle is unusually hard, eiko guy, it just doesn't make sense. Perhaps if you didn't contradict yourself with your hints it may have been guessed earlier.

Has Rikku been guessed yet? I think it could be her.

[Eiko Guy]

finally someone got it

she almost kills 5 people tidus kimahri and lulu the first time then tidus and wakka the second time she saved them from being shot with a smoke bomb which i would have said was right to the lead was the bullets and you could say she saved them from seymour becuz of the smokebamb

[IceAngel]

So whos turn is it?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Mine.

In the second I am steadfast and stout
In the first I am called by another
In a place of damnation you'll find me
And in a place of aquisition I reside.

There are two possible answers.
