Nanaki / Red XIII

He's not called by his proper name by Hojo and game's default name for him.
Hes much older than the party thinks he is (they are surprised when Bugenhagen says how old he is)

ok then, Sephiroth1112, you seem to want some attention, I wonder where zbonks went?

should we post a riddle while we wait?
If so.......

I look stronger than you look
though my master are not
I hit harder than anyone else
though it's weak
I can be gained easily than you think

Easier, by the time zbonks come, this riddle shall be finished.

Lenna
04-05-2006, 02:45 AM
I say that it's Titan the summon materia.

I look stronger than you look <--- He looks like some big caveman dude
though my master are not <--- although you can summon him, you can't control his actions/what he does
I hit harder than anyone else <--- he hits into the ground, which breaks, no one else can do that in the game.
though it's weak <--- it's not the strongest materia in the game
I can be gained easily than you think <------ you just have to pick it up
though I seem to live in ruins <---- you find it in the damaged/ruined reactor in Gongaga.

Easy enough.

I've mastered like all my materia 2 times now mastering it a 3rd time to sell lol. ;o all my characters in my party atm don't have any mastered materia on. Just ones I want to master xD

sorry, but nothing to do with Temple of the Ancients or materia.
zbonks, thank for the compliment.

Lenna
04-05-2006, 04:13 PM
I think it's Diamond weapon.

I look stronger than you look <--- they're big ugly monsters
though my master are not <--- The planet is what controls them and it's at it's weakest time during the meteor being summoned.
I hit harder than anyone else <--- they have big strong attacks they are the planets source of protection so of course they're going to be able to hit as hard as possible. But my theory on this is they hit harder than any HUMAN being.
though it's weak <---- It is possible to defeat. And very easy to beat
I can be gained easily than you think <--- It comes straight to you in the story line for you to beat.
though I seem to live in ruins <----- it could be the reference to the northern crater which is ruins from the previous meteor.

Dell

no, not weapons.

Lenna
04-05-2006, 05:13 PM
I don't think this riddle has anything to do with anything else. It can't be a normal character because characters are dependent on stats, the only character you can find as easily, that's within ruins is yuffie. As Wutai is classed as Wutai Ruins. and no normal character has a master.

It cannot be an ordinary weapon because 1 that is dependant on the characters stats and levels, and they change all the time. The answer needs to be a stict straight forward answer. Besides you can't look at a weapon and say oh this looks stronger than you because you don't see any weapons in great detail besides the Junon canon. And even that cant be it because it was not found in ruins, and it doesn't have a specific master.

It can't be an item because items don't look stronger or hit harder than anyone else. Not to mention there are very rarely a set of items only found in one place.

It's not a materia, it's not a main weapon.

It can't be a place because places can't look stronger than a human being. Rephrase the riddle because it's not literally correct, and makes no sense whatsoever. Unless it's a rhetorical riddle then you've really messed with our time.

It can't be a normal character because characters are dependent on stats, the only character you can find as easily, that's within ruins is yuffie. As Wutai is classed as Wutai Ruins. and no normal character has a master. <--- reread this bit. It CAN'T be a character because strength is variable due to weapons and stats. A character can't be stronger than any others.

But if we're on this.

I believe it might be tifa, and her Premium heart ultimate weapon.

I look stronger than you look <--- This could be in reference to the fact when she punches they look forceful and powerful.
though my master are not <--- she's female, so she looks weak but don't judge a book by it's cover lala.
I hit harder than anyone else <--- this reference could be to the fact she actually hits and not slices or throws or bites etc.
though it's weak <------ could be the fact that gloves can break easily?!
I can be gained easily than you think <----- you just go to the wall market when you have the key to midgar and you get it in the item thing
though I seem to live in ruins <---- well come on, wallmarket is ruins.

Lenna
04-05-2006, 05:55 PM
Cid and his amazing Rocket

I look stronger than you look - it looks huge and big
though my master are not - Cid's puny, but then again, this could be in reference to the little fat man palmer being in charge of the space program.
I hit harder than anyone else - Rockets hit harder than anything because a human could not break through the atmosphere without dying xD
though it's weak <--- not been used for years and also it's damaged
I can be gained easily than you think <--- it's part of the story line.
though I seem to live in ruins <- it's practically ruined.

From these bright young sparks,
In terms of top class,
They'd sure get top marks.

With interests you'll see,
When your journey moves far,
You hunt for the chance,
To show you're the star.

Of a real-life warm place,
When you meet these darlings,
You'll be on top of the race.

lost number think about it.. its the chocobo races...

Intelligence rises,--better intelligence better chocobo
From these bright young sparks,--they start weak and slow but get better
In terms of top class,--they can get to S-class easily
They'd sure get top marks.--there usually pretty fast.. and you usually win

With interests you'll see,--the more you reseach them the better you can make them
When your journey moves far,you need one to cross the marsh or else you ainyt getting no where. plus to get KoR
You hunt for the chance,--you need to catch them
To show you're the star.--then race them and come in first

With the calming surrounds,--its usually calm in the waiting room
Of a real-life warm place,--an amuement park
When you meet these darlings,--the CHOCOBOS!
You'll be on top of the race. and WIN! YAY!

04-06-2006, 04:47 PM
Yes Lost number it is! xD

Here's my explanation.

Intelligence rises, < ------ This is in reference to how smart they are
From these bright young sparks, <------ they're young, and again smart.
In terms of top class, <---- This bit was in reference to the chocobo races and classes
They'd sure get top marks. <--- with their intelligence you can raise good chocobo's and winners.

With interests you'll see, <--- they're pure bird lovers. Genuine interest.
When your journey moves far, <--- these next 3 lines are in reference to chocobo's again. The journey of raising chocobo's starts when you get the highwind, and that is pretty far from the start.
You hunt for the chance, <--- you need to get the chocobo lure from choco billy in order to be able to get chocobo's
To show you're the star. <---- With Choco billy's Breeding knowledge and Choles information on which chocobo has the best stats, you'll soon be able to make a winner of the races.

With the calming surrounds, <--- nice calm place, mostly in reference to the music "Farm boy" here.
Of a real-life warm place, <-- not necessarily hot, but leading towards a farm. When breeding takes place on most farms it usually is quite warm as it's spring.
When you meet these darlings, <--- Dedicated and Friendly.
You'll be on top of the race. <---- You'll basically know everything you have in order to continue winning the chocobo races.

No, let me point out that the answer is actually Undead. I've already said Seto, Gi Nattak, Ghost Ship, The GI Itself. Lost number has already confirmed that the "great pride" is misleading. It has relative connections to real-life in a weird form, and that the physical stature of the GI Nattak is closer to the answer than anything else I've said.

Right to help people out a bit, I'm going to say everything I said to LN and give you an explanation as to why I thought that, maybe it'll help you lot realise how to look within the riddle rather than what's just there.

Humans dearest friend,
Always there in times of need,
In the ruins of great pride,
I here and now reside,

White Materia / Holy:

This is quite easy, mostly to do with the fact that it's "there in a time of need", in the ruins of great pride. Now great pride can mean anything, it can mostly mean, the pride of the ancients, such as the temple, the city and the forest. They took pride in protecting and the city was something special, ruins but it was built on their pride. It dropped there and was left.

Weapons:

Humans dearest friend can be looked at 2 ways because of the way it's said in the poem. It can be "A humans dearest friend," hinting at someone who the humans relied on, or humans dearest friend, can be looked on as the ones who are always there in a time of need. "Humans dearest friend are always there in times of need" So, in this instance, the Weapons could be the answer although it's not because of the stature they reside in. The ruins of the planet, the ruins of what the planet takes pride in...itself perhaps?

Seto:

Seto was there to protect Cosmo Canyon in a time they needed him most. There are many ways to look at the great pride bit again in reference to Seto. The ruins could be himself, the shadow of his former self being ruined due to being petrified. It could be the ruins of what once cosmo canyon took pride in but now are weak due to lack of people to fight for them. Nanaki being the only one left. The caves being pride as the thought of Seto rushing through them and fighting off all those enemies would obviously bring some pride to Nanaki.

Gi Nattak:

The humans dearest friend could again refer to Seto, but as the ruins of great pride goes along here, it could be the fact of the Gi's big army rushing through the caves with their pride of war and ruined due to the fact they were defeated, leaving them dead, and still haunting the place because they failed in their mission.

Ifalna:

I thought about this bit carefully, think about it, Ifalna, being an ancient, does not conciously have thoughts put into the game. But imagine you were her character. If you saw humans fighting for the planet, would you be proud? Would you think they're always there in a time of need. The in ruins of great pride, that is an easy one to answer. The ancients pride was in the planet. They spoke and were one with the planet. When the lifestream continues to flow, those whose spirits have returned to the planet have new lives. As we know, Aeris says in the game that her mothers spirit has already returned to the planet, meaning she has been reborn. Therefore, the fact that the planet is in danger, and could be "in ruins" due to the panic etc, she would be living amongst the ruins of her pride.

Dyne - now I've not run this one by Lost Number :P

Dyne considers the world as worthless and evil, but then changes his mind when he changes his mind, now Barret was Dynes "dearest friend". The phrase "humans dearest friend" could also be conducted as "my dearest friend" it would just depend on if Dyne was speaking in 3rd person in the riddle. Corel Prison is the ruins of Dyne's most prize possession. His and Barrets town. He lived amongst the ruins in order to remind himself what everyone has done to it. He didn't stay the against his will remember. Because he also died in that area, his body would still remain/reside.

Sephiroth - way too obvious though.

Sephiroth classes himself as supernatural, as you see many times during the game, he calls humans traitors etc. Because they are not the cetra. The reference to always there in times of need, could actually be a sarcastic remark, or truthful depending on where about in the game you are looking. The ruins of great pride, well as you saw in the game, he claims he was a cetra, the planet was his pride but then again, it wasn't. The lifestream was. He knew that if he brought a force so powerful enough that threatened the life of the planet he'd be most powerful and cease to exist as we knew him. His pride could have been the northern cave which was caused by the "calamity of the skies"... his mother. The ruins could just be a reference to the fact that it was a wound.

Jenova:

This would basically be the same as Sephiroth, as she is with Sephiroth practically all the time. But it could be more related to her as the ruins of great pride as she was the one who caused destruction.

Elmyra - (Aeris' Foster Mother)

Now Elmyra is a completely different story. The phrase Humans dearest friend could again refer to the fact that she believes Cloud etc are doing their best in this time of need. The ruins of great pride, could be her sorrow for losing both her husband and Aeris. She would then just basically settle down and mourn for her loved ones.

Now you have to remember I look at every aspect different ways of thinking. Where as you may look at that riddle and think - simple why can't I think of what the answer is. If that is the case then you're not looking at the riddle correctly. If you can't think of an answer you're looking the wrong way, if you're getting lots of answers, then you're doing something right.

That's all I can remember so far, I'll be back later with more ;p

BTW, the new ones are wrong. But do you lot see? Random guesses are only annoying. Learn from this master, PLEASE.
OK, hint time! LAST and ONLY one.

Cannot act until you see,
In the shards of years gone,
Dreams even desert,

This is NOT directly connected to the first riddle, it is a HINT.

Ok, Pride apparantly is the one word being misunderstood the most.

so I looked it up to find these were the most fitting:

# A cause or source of pleasure or satisfaction; the best of a group or class
# A flamboyant or impressive group
# Pleasure or satisfaction taken in an achievement, possession, or association:
# A sense of one's own proper dignity or value; self-respect.


*more researching*

Ok, I've got a theory, it's probably wrong but it's worth a shot.

Humans dearest friend,
Always there in times of need,
In the ruins of great pride,
I here and now reside,

Cannot act until you see,
In the shards of years gone,
Dreams even desert,

Both of these paragraphs lead me to believe that this riddle is about Holzoff.
The famous Gaia Mountain Climber.

When you need him, he is always there, especially if you end up dying of coldness in the Gaia cliff, you always mysteriously end back up at his. The ruins of great pride could be in reference to his hobby mountain climbing and the fact that he's never been able to fully do it properly, or be able to go back home.
The cannot act until you see refers to the - you cannot go any further than the mountain cabin until you go in and see Holzoff for him to give you advice. The shards of years gone can also refer to the fact he's spent many years up there (20 if I remember correctly). Dreams even desert, leads me to the fact that he's given up on his dream because of how practically impossible it was and is.

I'm gonna take a wild stab at this and say Professor Gast.

He's always mentioned as the most brilliant scientific mind in the world before his death. We know he was killed by Hojo, a man of immense ego, but only after he gave up his studies of the Cetra to marry Ifalna and father Aeris. Of course, we only know all this after Cloud "sees" the video research of all these events after Aeris' death.

No actually Sephiroth, he didn't he said He'd "LIKE" to say you had better reasons than I did, which means that I'm doing far better at explaining my reasons than you are and for you to take an example from me.
That's your problem, you seem to misread or not read at all.

is it chocobo's or the chocobo rescure team that saves u in the corel prison if u wander off

Humans dearest friend, <-- i guess sort of the dogs of ff
Always there in times of need, <-- can find them pretty much anywhere on the world map
In the ruins of great pride,
I here and now reside, <-- the rescue thing can only be found in the dessert, which you'll wander into if u have too much pride and think u can survive out there

Cannot act until you see, <-- can't go anywhere until u see it
In the shards of years gone, <-- shards mean glass, which is really sand
Dreams even desert, <-- mirages

Materia?

Humans dearest friend, - almost all human in FFVII have it
Always there in times of need, - it is available when you need for battle
In the ruins of great pride, - don't know about this, I think it's the weapon.
I here and now reside, - this probably talking about the weapon slot.

Cannot act until you see, - It does not anything until you see the animation of the attck
In the shards of years gone, - probably, the crystal in Mt. Nibel
Dreams even desert, - doon't know about this.

It could also be summon materias.

In order to clarify this, MY LAST 3 LINES ARE A HINT. THEY BEAR NO REFERENCE TO THE REST OF THE RIDDLE. IF YOU GET THE HINT THE ANSWER WILL HELP YOU UNDERSTAND MY MEANING OF PRIDE. IF YOU CANNOT GRASP THIS THEN ONLY LOOK AT THE MAIN RIDDLE!
