FFX riddles

[Dynast-Kid]

Is it the summoning of Ixion?

Nope.


Hidden among giants- trees



Oh,and I forgot to mention that this is the first part of the answer.

[My_car_is_faster_than_you]

Ah, Guadosalam. It has to be.

Hidden among giants - forest
Portal to the light - houses the farplane
Cross the astral flow - Moonflow
You'll know
You've reached dwellers of the night - I guess Guado are night dwellers

[Dynast-Kid]

Ah, Guadosalam. It has to be.

Hidden among giants - forest
Portal to the light - houses the farplane
Cross the astral flow - Moonflow
You'll know
You've reached dwellers of the night - I guess Guado are night dwellers

Ahhh...You're my little genius.:bigsmile:

Your turn!

[My_car_is_faster_than_you]

Some like to travel
Some like where they are
Some are sneaky
Some are shy
Some fight
Some run
We're all different
But all the same

[jammi567]

fiends, maybe.

[redxiiii]

Some like to travel

Some are shy

Cactuars?

[sephiroth the dark angel]

hypellos

[My_car_is_faster_than_you]

Red XIII, correct! Cactaurs, specifically referring to the ones in Bikanel Desert.

[redxiiii]

Only two can fight me to rescue a trapped individual watch out as it charges. easy i know but i feel guilty for not making my own riddle up after anwsering one correctly.

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

carry armour. it grabs ur chars and traps them then charges it's lapis laser (i think!?)

[redxiiii]

carry armour. it grabs ur chars and traps them then charges it's lapis laser (i think!?)

That probably wiuld be the correct answer if this were the FF 7 forum however this is FFX so no such luck.

[sephiroth the dark angel]

the Geosgaeno thing guy that swallows u in the beggining

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

DAMNIT!!!! i read these irddles pages too much :D

prolly is geosgeno so i'll leave it

[sephiroth the dark angel]

lol yay i got one whoho :)

[My_car_is_faster_than_you]

lol yay i got one whoho :)

You did? I didn't hear anyone say "correct" :confused: Geosgeano you can either fight with 3 or 1, but not 2 if I remember correctly.

I personally think it's Extractor when you're crossing with the shoopuf. It grabs Yuna, so only the water worth Tidus and Wakka can fight, since you don't have Rikku yet. Then, it readies it's depth charges as on of it's attacks.

[sephiroth the dark angel]

i guess ur right im partyng too soon

[Spammerman]

THe riku bot(when your on shoopuf) and it takes yuna i think and only wakka and tidus go save it.
edit. nvm didnt see car's post.

[redxiiii]

my car is faster is correct!!

[My_car_is_faster_than_you]

I'll pass. I'm too tired to think of any kind of riddle right now.

[jammi567]

Yay! Finally!

i was bad, but good,
i was fought, but used
what am i?

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

what as opposed to who? . . . am gonna say ultima weapon

[jammi567]

no.

[Yew-Yevon]

Vengagun?...or machina?

[jammi567]

no.

[Spammerman]

aeons

[abrojtm]

Anima.

[My_car_is_faster_than_you]

Jecht?

[jammi567]

aeons
correct. your go.

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

Ultima weapon!? wot the hell was i thinkin!!! i keep flicking between the ff7 and 10 riddles to often, maybe i shoudl lay off these a bit :D

anywot, congrats link31793

[Spammerman]

pass.

[My_car_is_faster_than_you]

A heavenly blade
Wielded by the deceased
Unveiled by the reflector
A girl as the successor

[Spammerman]

Nirvana?

[BG-57]

Godhand maybe?

[abrojtm]

A heavenly blade --A Sword
Wielded by the deceased --Mi'hen used it
Unveiled by the reflector --It powers up with the Celestial Mirror
A girl as the successor --Paine uses it in X-2

Masamune??

[My_car_is_faster_than_you]

abrojtm is correct, it is the Masamune. But the only thing was that I meant the second line Wielded by the deceased, as FFX spoiler: Auron.

None the less, good job.

[abrojtm]

For this crazy concoction,
The formula is clear
The formula for victory!
The formula that strikes fear:
It's a secret, however,
How the wager will call
In the way you combine these,
The new one will fall.

[Spammerman]

rikku's overdrive?

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

i think u mite b lukin for a particular rikku OD so i'm gonna say winning formula on the pure basis of u using "formula" over n over agen :D

[Enjolras]

Hmm... is it the Sunburst you get by using Rikku's Overdrive to mix a Winning Formula and a Dark Matter? (I'm not sure, but i think it might be called 'Supernova' in the U.S version)

[abrojtm]

Pssh, yea it's Supernova (I guess Sunburst too, eh?)

For this crazy concoction, --Mix
The formula is clear --Here's the formula
The formula for victory! --Winning formula
The formula that strikes fear:
It's a secret, however, --Underdog's Secret
How the wager will call --Gambler's Spirit
In the way you combine these, --Mix any of those two
The new one will fall. --Nova=new, stars fall...Supernova=new star

[Enjolras]

Okay then, here goes...

Held in the hope of continued destruction
Kept in the depths of an anguishing heart
Used against one linked through blood
A platform on which heroes must stand

[My_car_is_faster_than_you]

Sephiroth.

[Enjolras]

No, not Sephiroth. Seeing as this is a FFX riddle thread...

[My_car_is_faster_than_you]

Oh yeah, duh.

[abrojtm]

Seymour (Omnis)?

[Enjolras]

Nope, not Seymour.
I'd give you a hint, but i'm trying to think of one that wouldn't completely give it away

[My_car_is_faster_than_you]

I'll venture a guess, Lord Zaon? I can't think of anything else. Actually, I can't think of anything at all. :(

[Enjolras]

Nope, not Zaon.

Well, a hint then: its an object.

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

is it the platform on which u fight braska's final aeon? it's inside sin (which is continued destrucion) and in the depths of jechts heart. and ur party sand on it . . .

. . .maybe i'm looking at this riddle too literally :D

[Halenite]

Anima?

NOTE to SPOILERS
Held in the hope of continued destruction (basically Aeon of darkness)
Kept in the depths of an anguishing heart (seymour first possessed her)
Used against one linked through blood (You can use Anima against her son, Seymour)
A platform on which heroes must stand (not sure about this one.

[Enjolras]

It's not Anima, but Devils Pheonix you are very close.

[My_car_is_faster_than_you]

Yu Yevon? Because you stand on the platform at the end to kill it?

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

am jus gonna say braska's final aeon?

[abrojtm]

Yu Padogas?

[Enjolras]

Well...you are all extremely close, though none of you have quite said the answer i'm looking for. It's an inanimate object thats not hugely important to the story as a whole, but it plays a reasonably impotant role in one sequence.

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

r u wanting us to say the blitzball stadium? as thats the backdrop for the final battle and both tidus and jecht were star players

[N8V_Tidus25]

If not the AIRSHIP then Jechts SWORD... i think

[Enjolras]

N8V_Tidus25 is absolutely correct.

Held in the hope of continued destruction -Braska's Final Aeon (Jecht) uses it in an attempt to kill your party and continue the destruction of Spira.
Kept in the depths of anguishing heart -Jecht pulls it from his heart.
Used against one linked through blood -Jecht uses it against his son Tidus
A platform on which heroes must stand -Your party battles Yuna'a Aeons on it.

[N8V_Tidus25]

aww man im so sorry i didnt know i had to post a riddle, i suck at riddles but i'll give it a shot... ummm
i guess its an easy one and dont laugh

Found In The Depths of mysterious gorge
A Mighty Sword I Sometimes See Him Swing
One Blade, Two Blade, I See Three
Depts are paid or else We flea...

[My_car_is_faster_than_you]

Auron's Masamune?

[N8V_Tidus25]

nope..nice try though

[Enjolras]

Yojimbo?

[N8V_Tidus25]

Yes yojimbo, that was to easy, oh well, you are correct, congradulations, have a cookie:D

[Enjolras]

Well okay then here goes...

Gazing at expanses cerulean
The answer I seek is prime
Free beings casually free-wheeling
I'll watch and wonder a while.

I'm not sure if you guys'll find this hard or really easy.

[Firo Volondé]

Jecht maybe?
After he's mbeen tranquilized with the HotF

[BG-57]

Maybe Tidus in the last underwater scene?

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

a blitzball game. the free biengs being humans ans casualy free-wheeling in the water. and wondering how they manage to hold their breath that long, let alone play rugby underwater!!! not sure on the prime answer tho!?

[Enjolras]

No, its none of those sorry.

[TheSpoonyBard]

The girl on the upper deck of the S.S. Winno. She asks how many gulls there are. The answer's 11, which is a prime number.

[Enjolras]

Haha geez Endless, I was hoping you wouldn't come on to this thread, cos I knew you'd get it. Well you're right, you're turn then.

[TheSpoonyBard]

I've been in and out of these riddle threads since the beginning.

A master of disguise
A temptation lying in wait
The uncovering reveals weakness
The observant will be easily rewarded

[Firo Volondé]

the only thing i can think of is the blitzball throwing challenge in mt. gagazet... you have to be observant and wait until the centre is uncovered, and the reward is a chest or access to dark anima

[TheSpoonyBard]

It's not that, sorry. I just edited a word in the last line so it makes a bit more sense.

[Little Blue]

Is it the mimic fiends from the omega ruins?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Yes, Mimic is correct. Your turn, Duality.

[Little Blue]

Ok... it's been a while since I've done this, and they were never much good either:p, but here goes.

Not cold nor hot but makebelieve,
Where shadows are living,
Shadows of a mind well slept,
And where one man's last hope exists.

[BG-57]

Dream Zanarkand?

I'm not sure if you want a place or person here.

[Little Blue]

It is a place, in fact it is the place you answered.

Congrats, you're up.

[BG-57]

Matching colors
Shades of anger
But only available
In direst need

[Spammerman]

One of wakka's overdrives?

[TheSpoonyBard]

Wakka's Fire (red) Element Reels

[Firo Volondé]

It sounds like overdrives, since the first two lines could be Wakka's element reels and Lulu's fury

aargh, I leave my computer for a few minutes and people beat me to it...

[BG-57]

It's not Wakka's or Lulu's overdrives. And the color is not red.

[TheSpoonyBard]

SOS Nul[spell]?

[My_car_is_faster_than_you]

SOS Overdrive?

[BG-57]

It's not SOS abilities. I should add that first three guesses were actually pretty close.

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

aurons banishing blade OD? if u get it rite u get 2 blue n 2 red symbols causin extra status effects (i think!?)

[BG-57]

Not Auron, but the color the riddle refers to is blue.

[Firo Volondé]

kimahri's overdrive aka "blue" magic?

[BG-57]

You got it. :)

[Firo Volondé]

Best I can come up with this late...:sleepy:
No matter what ails you, you can call on me
But remember... I believe nothing is free
Your range of choice is long and wide
Bargain or rip-off? You decide

[Ethanol Dreams]

Is it O'aka?

[Nifleheim7]

Yojibo?

[BG-57]

Sounds like Yojimbo to me, but I'll guess Wantz as a long-shot.

[My_car_is_faster_than_you]

All my guesses have been taken, so I'll say Rin cause of his travel agencies around the world.

[Firo Volondé]

It's not a character, but polonoid is the closest so far.

[My_car_is_faster_than_you]

This better not be, Yojimbo. (vs. Yojibo)

I'll venture another guess, I'll say Yuna's Nirvana staff. Lots of magics to choose from, always costs MP despite it's one MP cost....etc.

[Nifleheim7]

Oh well, i made a typo.
My_car_is_faster_than_you, can do the next riddle...
(i'm sure it's YojiMbo)

Or is it Zanmato?

[Firo Volondé]

No, its not yojimbo or zanmato, but it works the same way.
gil --> attack

[Ethanol Dreams]

The ability Spare Change? (Or something like that)

[Firo Volondé]

Got it in one (Or something like that)

Your turn now

[Ethanol Dreams]

Can someone else do one please? I'm no good at doing stuff like that. :)

[My_car_is_faster_than_you]

Sorry, this is a little retarded.

A wholesome delight
Golden and sweet
As well as the maker
Who's face is a treat

[Ethanol Dreams]

Is it the food Rikku gives Tidus on the salvage ship at the start? :p

[My_car_is_faster_than_you]

Nope. Anyway, this is the last time I'm logging on, so the answer is Pineapple. Rikku's overdrive combination. Adios!

[The Mog Ninja]

Who's doin the next one?

[CodeVeroby]

meeeeeee

[CodeVeroby]

I totaly forgot the rules ,so can I post a riddle now?

[Firo Volondé]

yes

[CodeVeroby]

ok

[CodeVeroby]

Came from the dark
in a world that was never real
there he awaits
and the impulse shall prevaile

[Nifleheim7]

Bahamut?

[Firo Volondé]

fayth of bahamut

[CodeVeroby]

VERY close but dont forget the line :
"Came from the dark
in a world that was never real"

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

DARK bahamut!?

[Spammerman]

VERY close but dont forget the line :
"Came from the dark
in a world that was never real"

you really shouldnt say which line he left out.

[CodeVeroby]

DARK bahamut!?

yeah right but I told everyone the answer :mad: Earlier

[Firo Volondé]

some1 put a riddle up... I'm dyin' out here

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

ok my turn

placed in the middle of nowhere
away from the direct route
with only my bikini and kick-ass boots for company
and the occasional summoning party too

[Enjolras]

Naida, the woman who sells stuff at the Calm Lands travel agency? You know her name as she can play blitzball.

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

i always make these too damn easy. ur go enjolras

[Enjolras]

Here goes then...

A reluctant reunion of friends long parted
Surrounded by secrets and marred by intrigue
The trap be be wondrous or may lead to disaster
The victims' bold challenge to a different league

I hope this isn't too bad a riddle.

[Spammerman]

When tidus challenges the goers. the scene where he says the goers are goners.

A reluctant reunion of friends long parted
Surrounded by secrets and marred by intrigue- When seymour comes and stuff?
The trap be be wondrous or may lead to disaster
The victims' bold challenge to a different league- Youll prolly lose to the goers. There super good.

[Enjolras]

No sorry. You're kinda on the right track though.

[Spammerman]

the purity water well thing, where u get thrown in, and have to find your friends.

[Enjolras]

Thats not the answer either, although i suppose it almost fits the riddle.

[Firo Volondé]

Operation Mi'ihen?

A reluctant reunion of friends long parted - Auron and Kinoc
Surrounded by secrets and marred by intrigue - something to do with the Crimson Squad
The trap be be wondrous or may lead to disaster - They are trying to trap Sin. The results are either wondrous (Sin defeated) or disaster (Sin kills everyone)
The victims' bold challenge to a different league - Operation Mi'ihen is bold, and Sin is in a different league with power

[Spammerman]

i think u got it.

[Enjolras]

Blitz king is indeed correct. Although the second line didnt have anything to do with the crimson squad, but the secrets of the maesters Seymour and Kinoc, and the intrigue of the whole Crusader/Al Bhed/Machina thing. Your go blitzee.

[CodeVeroby]

why Enjolras282 why !!! now that you let a pro do a riddle
no one will solve it .

[Firo Volondé]

OK I'll do an easy one.

Found on fields of airborne wrath
Trapped by an ancient curse
If you touch me, then beware
My revenge is a thousand times worse

[Enjolras]

This may be an obvious but wrong answer, but is it the Mega- Tonberry?

[Spammerman]

I would assume so, and that the 1000 time worse thing has to do with 1000 needles.

[CodeVeroby]

Peneace ?

Found on fields of airborne wrath - you fight him airborn and its in a dark scary sky

Trapped by an ancient curse - i dont know

If you touch me, then beware - if you hit him he will attack you back (counter) with an arm

My revenge is a thousand times worse - well his name is 'peneace' and he will reveange for the dark
aeons and he is 1000 times stronger than them

[Firo Volondé]

I would assume so, and that the 1000 time worse thing has to do with 1000 needles.

You're right, but mega-tonberry doesn't use 1000 Needles.

It's not Penance either.

[Enjolras]

Its the Quactuars?

Found on fields of airborne wrath - The Thunder plains
Trapped by an ancient curse - Something to do with the Quactuar stones
If you touch me, then beware, my revenge is 1000 times worse - They counter with 1000 needles.

[Firo Volondé]

All correct, except "If you touch me" refers to touching the stones to release the Qactuars.

[Enjolras]

Someone else take my turn, I cant think of anything even half-decent right now.

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

ok i'll take it

is anyone here a translator?
or we could just refer to what little resources we have?
if only we had access to babelfish!?
then we can access the goods we choose!

[TheSpoonyBard]

Inputting the answers into the chests in Home, more specifically the one that yeilds a different item depending on your response.

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

correctamundo! *smiles heartily at his fonzy impression:D*

[CodeVeroby]

WTF !? that was the hardest question iv'e ever seen

[Jesta]

that was one of the easier qs ive seen in a while

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

ok it's been a week since i sed endless was right and i have informed hm a couple of times so the riddles are now open to anyone who wants to make one!

i'll not do one yet cos i did the last one, but if there isn't one tomorrow i will.

[CodeVeroby]

not for free
will make you win
a samurai's hit
which kills all

[TheSpoonyBard]

Zanmato.

[Firo Volondé]

Wakizashi? (No kidding it's definitely Zanmato)

[CodeVeroby]

ok that was TOO easy

[N8V_Tidus25]

i'll give it a try...

I was a powerful member of the yevonite church
I lost my way and had rebelled against my faith
I was held imprisoned in the depths of the darkest cave
Dead, unsent, so as a fiend i still remain

[Firo Volondé]

Omega Weapon

[Enjolras]

Well it was actually Endless' turn, but I'm sure he won't mind, as he solves them all the time and gets turns anyway.

[Firo Volondé]

Someone else can take my turn (if I was right), I can't think of any good riddles right at the moment.

[jammi567]

Okay then:

"a dark terror am i,
and can be fought,
after many trials"

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

hang on a second

1. it was endless' turn n he dint say sum1 cud take it, but he's cool so that prolly fine

2. N8V_Tidus25 never sed blitz-king was right so we need to wait for that

3. the answer to your riddle is dark anima :D

peace out :D

dp

[N8V_Tidus25]

lol blitzking is correct

[jammi567]

1) now that blitz_king10 is right, and seeing as he passed his question on, people can now start answering my riddle.
2) wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong.

peace out to you too, d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x

[Firo Volondé]

Penance, because you need to kill all the Dark Aeons to access it.

[jammi567]

yeah, your go.

[Firo Volondé]

Ok, here goes!

A symbol of defiance
A gift from a god
Fashioned for his own demise
Use it if you believe

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

is it masamune? aurons CW?

a symbol of defiance --> t's a sword:D
a gift from god --> celestial being the key word
fashioned for his own demise --> designed to do more damage wen he is at low health because he is unsent
use it if u believe --> u got me!?

[Spammerman]

If not that, it could be Valefor

A symbol of defiance
A gift from a god- Comes from the sky
Fashioned for his own demise- Aeons have to give up their bodies.
Use it if you believe- Tidus tells Yuna to believe, and she does, like in the Bevelle wedding scene.

[Firo Volondé]

No, it's neither of them.

[BG-57]

Is it Thor's Hammer, Ixion's overdrive? It's a lightning-based attack that disintegrates enemies in a swirling storm.

[Firo Volondé]

Nope, but here's a hint:


My original purpose (Zanarkand)
My other purpose (Spira)
What I'm used for in the game
A pun on my name

[Spammerman]

Sin?

[Enjolras]

Is it the sword Auron gives Tidus at the beginning of the game, when he says "A gift from Jecht"?

A Symbol of defiance - Tidus uses it to defy people
A Gift from a god - In some ways Jecht is a god-like figure
Fashioned for his own demise - Eventually you have to use a sword against him
Use it if you believe - Kind of self explanatory...

[Firo Volondé]

No, but Line 3 refers to Sin specifically.

[Spammerman]

Final SUmmoning

[Firo Volondé]

Where's Endless when you need him, eh?;)

This is my final hint, that will DEFINITELY give away the answer:

It's a ancient song, used by Tidus and co. to calm Sin down enough for them to approach him.

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

HYMN OF THE FAYTH!!!

YES!!! got there first!!!

[Firo Volondé]

CORRECT!!! Your turn next!!! But imo, 3 exclamation marks are really unnecessary!!!:cool:

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

yeh sorry bout that, guess i got a little excited :D

call to the saviour
with a distressed plea
with hidden intentions
and the beast beneath

[Brennan]

Anima?

[Enjolras]

Is it Yunalesca?

Call to the saviour
With a distressed plea - she's the one who controls the final summoning
With hidden intentions - she has a lot of hidden intentions
And the beast beneath - when you fight her there is a large beast-like part of her beneath

[Firo Volondé]

I agree with OWG, since Anima also has a "beast beneath", and Seymour summons her in the first battle, which could refer to the "distressed plea".

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

not anima or yunalesca, sorry . . .

reasoning plz ty

[jammi567]

is it sin?

call to the saviour - call to yunalesca to make the final aeon
with a distressed plea - distressed after you find out that it's a guardian
with hidden intentions - keeping spira underdeveloped so they can't find DZ
and the beast beneath - yu-yevon hiding beneath the skin of sin

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

sorry no, but i must say ur reasoning is sound

[Firo Volondé]

I love a challenge...

It is anything to do with aeons?

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

in a sense . . .

[Fantasy Lover]

is it be yevon

call to the saviour: yevon
with a distressed plea: people pray to them to save them from sin
with hidden intentions: yevon does not stick to their own rules
and the beast beneath:dunno

[Vivisteiner]

Fayth

Here are some vague, random reasons.

call to the saviour: summoners call to the fayth
with a distressed plea: to remember why the fayths died.
with hidden intentions: the reason why fayth dream of the past is hidden to Tidus.
and the beast beneath: You see them above the picture of their aeon I think

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

nope sorry both wrong

HINT: saviour refers to you helping someone for the person making the "distressed plea"

[Enjolras]

Is it the woman in the Bikanel desert who asks you to help her find her child? You walk toward the cliff and she turns into a yevonite and summons Dark Ifrit on you. My reasoning should be pretty obvious.

[BG-57]

I'm guessing Valefor, who Yuna summons to catch her when she leaps from the tower of Bevelle to escape from Seymour.

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

enjolras is CORRECT!!!

call to the saviour --> she asks tidus to help her
with a distressed plea --> by saying she's lost her child
with hidden intentions --> there's no child u fool! ur just a heathen!!!
and the beast beneath --> DF is hidden from sight at the bottom of the cliff

[BG-57]

Argh, darn that PAL version! :p

[Enjolras]

You can do one BG, I've got to go to work and I don't have time to think of one.

[BG-57]

Oh, thanks. :)

Two related answers here:

Essence and form conflicted
Brash yet painfully shy
Demure yet disobendient
The smallest yet powerful

[jammi567]

is it yu-yevon?

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

is it kimahri?

u hav the choice to teach him magic or strength (essence and form?)
he's got a big build and voice but rarely talks (brash but shy)
loyal to yuna but does things his own way (demure and disobedient)
a small ronso but still able to defeat biran and yenke (smallest but powerful)

u watch now i'll me miles off :D

btw BG, sorry bout doin a dark aeon riddle, i know how much it bums u out cos u don't have pal. my bad :D

[Firo Volondé]

Yuna?

Essence and form conflicted - Not sure
Brash yet painfully shy - Yuna is shy, but can be brash sometimes.
Demure yet disobendient - Yuna in a nutshell
The smallest yet powerful - Yuna has low attack power, but can summon aeons?

[BG-57]

btw BG, sorry bout doin a dark aeon riddle, i know how much it bums u out cos u don't have pal. my bad :D

It's alright, I should really look up the PAL version of the game script to level the playing field, so to speak. :p

It's not Yu-Yevon, Kimahri, or Yuna.

[Laugh at face of Danger]

Rikku?

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

can i ask, is everything in this riddle meant to be taken literally, metaphorically or is it a euphamism for the name or something? or wud that give the answer away?

[BG-57]

It's all meant literally.

Rikku is not one of the answers.

[Spammerman]

Cactuar and their ghosts?
Essence and form conflicted - The cactuar have a solid form and the spirits on thunder plain things.
Brash yet painfully shy - They'll attack but then run awat.
Demure yet disobendient -
The smallest yet powerful - smallest fiend but use 1000 needles:(

[BG-57]

Not Cactuars, but your interpretation of essence and form are correct.

[jammi567]

Is it pyrflies(sp)

Essence and form conflicted - they have no form, but make forms
Brash yet painfully shy - They show up oftern, but don't publically show themselves
Demure yet disobendient - they hold the form, but come away whenever they want to?
The smallest yet powerful - they're small, but can make the biggest things

[BG-57]

The answers are related to Pyreflies.

[jammi567]

Bingo! it's Sin, isn't it.

[BG-57]

No, a little smaller than Sin.

[Spammerman]

Tidus.

Essence and form conflicted- Hes not really alive. Hes ppart of the zanarkand dream thing, therefore even though his form seems solid, hes really just made of pyreflies.
Brash yet painfully shy- He goes without thinking, like in the trials where he goes to yuna.
Demure yet disobendient- he likes to play around, and doesnt always listen,
The smallest yet powerful- Youngest of the warriors, possibly shortest, but he can be super-good.

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

when u say a little smaller than sin, is that sarcasm :D if not then i'll say penance

[BG-57]

It's not Tidus or Penance. And the answer is actually a lot smaller than Sin. :D

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

is it the spirits of the fayth of bahamut

Essence and form conflicted --> essence being the spirit and form being the statues
Brash yet painfully shy --> not sure on this, but maybe cos the aeons they make appear to help u out but the fayth don't actually show themselves
Demure yet disobendient --> dunno on this cos they (usually!) do wot u ask!?
The smallest yet powerful --> bahamuts fayth is just a kid but he's stronger than half of the other aeons

[BG-57]

Right idea, wrong Fayth/Aeon.

[jammi567]

is it anima?

[N8V_Tidus25]

one of the magus sisters, idk her name, the smallest one

[BG-57]

Not Anima.

Sandy is the tall praying mantis.

Cindy is the large heavyset ladybug.

Mindy is the small bee girl.

Which one are you referring to?

[Firo Volondé]

I think he means fayth of Mindy, which is probably the answer. If not, I'll guess Yojimbo's dog, because it's small but powerful, etc.

[BG-57]

The answer is Mindy and her Fayth.

Essence and form conflicted: Mindy and her Fayth have very different personalities.
Brash yet painfully shy: Mindy fights aggresively, but her Fayth is too shy to even look up at Yuna and Tidus.
Demure yet disobendient: On occasion Mindy (and her sisters) will simply ignore Yuna's commands in battle.
The smallest yet powerful: She's the smallest of the Magus Sisters, but her Passado attack is one of the strongest in the game.

N8V_Tidus25, you thought of the answer first, but blitz_king10 identified the name correctly. So the one that posts first gets the next riddle.

The image below is of the Fayth of (L-R) Cindy, Sandy, and Mindy.

[Simen]

Okey. Here's a riddle for you guys;

"...I teach Summoners how to learn their Aeons abilities and increase Attributes... Who am I?"

[BG-57]

Sorry, blitz_king10 or N8V_Tidus25 has the next riddle.

That being said, I'll guess Belginine.

[Simen]

Belgemine is correct! What post is the current riddle?

[N8V_Tidus25]

blitz_king10 can have it:D

[Simen]

But it's not posted yet?

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

that's rite, it hasn't. just wait for blitz king to come back and post a riddle

[Simen]

Okey :P

[Firo Volondé]

OK then, a quickie since I can't think of anything longer.

I am the last heretic. Who am I?

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

is it seymour? he is the last maester of yevon as mika goes to the farplane, kinoc dies and kelk ronso resigns.

[BG-57]

I'm guessing Omega Weapon, since Wakka clearly identifies him as a traitor and heretic.

EDIT: Oh yeah, omega is also the last letter of the Greek alphabet, so it can mean last.

[Firo Volondé]

OW is the answer, and Omega does mean last. I thought I'd stump everyone, but some people are far too clever for my liking...:p

Anyway, it's your turn, BG.

[Simen]

I didn't get a chance to guess :(

[BG-57]

The deadliest of its kind (almost)
But also quite easy to defeat
If proper provocation is given
Otherwise, it would be really bad.

EDIT: added a word to line 1.

[Firo Volondé]

Magic Pot!

[BG-57]

Not Magic Pot. But it is a class of fiend.

[Enjolras]

Hmm...is it Kottos?

[BG-57]

Nope. It is encountered in a regular dungeon.

EDIT: Hmm. Now that I think about it, my riddle needs to be fixed...done.

[Firo Volondé]

I know! It's Defender Z!

[BG-57]

Not Defender Z.

Lines 2-3 refer to a skill that can be used to help defeat it.

Line 4 refers to an attack it prefers to use.

[Enjolras]

It's the Great Marlboro.


...Isn't it?

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

is it the behemoth king u find inside sin?

it is stronger than a normal behemoth but not as strong as the monster arena variety
using provoke prevents it's meteor attack at the end

[BG-57]

Enjolras282 is correct, the answer is Great Malboro. It's favorite attack is Bad Breath, unless Provoke is used on it, in which case it reverts to physical attacks.

[Enjolras]

Ahh...my mind's blanker right now than it usually is, someone else take my turn.

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

kk i'll take it

accompanying the machine
with tracks to move, not tyres
to stop the mind from reign
with a camera and wires

[Simen]

This is a hard one. Machina Negator?

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

damn!? evidently it wasn't that hard! :D

ur go simen

[Simen]

Thanks! Here's my riddle: A dark almighty enemy approaches in the rain. Who is it?

[Firo Volondé]

Wild guess... Penance?

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

dark ixion, he is "dark" (literally :D) and u find him in the thunder plains

[Simen]

That is correct. The answer is Dark Ixion.
Oh man, my riddle was lame, wasn't it? :(

[Enjolras]

Not entirely lame, but perhaps a bit short. They're usually 4 or more lines long.

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

soz for late reply my inet was offline

i messed up bad
and business went bust
but with your help
and local creatures
i'll give you heavenly power
and in the end, erase your mind

your looking for a person. resoning please

[BG-57]

The guy who runs the monster arena? He needs you to go out and capture monsters for him. Capture enough and he gives you the Mars Sigil. If you unlock enough monsters he'll stock Clear Spheres, which can clear up nodes on the Sphere Grid.

[Enjolras]

Argh, wish I'd gotten here first to say that.

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

yup BG got it.

maybe u shud check the forums more often enjolras? how often do you?

[BG-57]

Argh, wish I'd gotten here first to say that.

It happens to me too. :p

Coincidence or related by blood?
Put these four on your team
And you can play with Aeons
Without a Summoner in sight

[jammi567]

Is it the event right at the end of the game, where you summon the aeon, Yu-Yevon engulves it, and these two pillars surround them?

[d£v!l'$ ph0£n!x]

is it when u fight belgemine's anima/magus sisters with you're magus sisters/anima? ther r 4 aeons, and cos the camera zooms out, or cos of the position of the camera, u can't see yuna and belgemine. and the blood thing maybe cos we never find out if theres any other kind of link between yuna and belgemine
