Is it Picket?
Marnela?
No to both.
Benzo?
The Fayth?:mog:
Neither Benzo nor the Fayth.
A chocobo?
...I'm just gonna answer "chocobo" to everything until I'm right ONCE, seriously. :D
Donga?
No and no. :choc:
I am a true star
I do easily what
My heartfelt ally
Does half as well
I'm fond of farewells
I will ably assist
The hard workers
So goodbye for now
No time for starting
Take all of your bows
There is no more
Unless you like encores
OH OH OH OH OH! I KNOW!! *waves hand like a spaz*
The "The End" Garment Grid! Final answer, Meredith. :)
Correct!
The End GG is star-shaped and can activate BDL in two gates while Higher Power GG (with a heart shape) takes four. The End can also activate Finale. You need to complete the Beastiary to get it, so you need to be a hard worker.
Your turn, Queen Anthai. :)
And that's the thing that keeps me up at night - suddenly remembering the shapes of Garment Grids.
I'm a nerd.
HORRIBLY WRITTEN POETIC RIDDLE TIME!
On single leg, with lonely eye
I give a warrior wings to fly
Maidens o'er me will cry
So tell me now, who am I?
Nowhere near as obscure as BG-57's, but I tried.
Machina Maw?:mog:
Nope.
The Celcius?:mog:
No.
Nooje?
No.
Shinra?
On single leg(his chair on the celcius) , with lonely eye(his mask)
I give a warrior wings to fly(dress spheres)
Maidens o'er me will cry(not too sure about this line but i think Yuna cries a little when he cuddles up to her before she departs for the Farplane but its been a while since i played that bit)
So tell me now, who am I? (Shinra)
:mog:
No.
It's most likely metaphorical if you're trying to emulate my riddles, but let's eliminate the literal stuff first:
The only one-eyed individuals I can think of are Auron and Gippal. The Evil Eye class have one eye, but generally two legs.
I'll go with Gippal.
The Crimson Squad or Nooj, Baralai and Gippal?:mog:
EDIT - And Paine? Its been a while since i played X-2 but i think paine was thier recorder, not too sure if she was part of the crimson squad officially though.
BG-57 got it...as always. ;)
On single leg, with lonely eye
The lonely eye should have definitely been a giveaway, and the "single leg" line refers to that ridiculous flamingo stance he takes when you first meet him at Djose Temple.
I give a warrior wings to fly
He's the one who taught Paine (the warrior) to speak Al Bhed, which got her interested in broadening her horizons and seeing the world and letting herself grow as a person.
Maidens o'er me will cry
Oh, Gippal's a heartbreaker. :)
Have at it, riddle master.
Okay, here we go:
Je suis entendu mais pas vu.
Je suis tout autour de vous.
Mais seulement sous terre.
Prenez garde des rongeurs.
Pyreflies? Farplane?
I don't understand french.:cry:
Use a translator Qwerty :) It's probably pyreflies like Tabris said.
Vegnagun ?
Vos énigmes toujours si bon, comment u sont-ils le font-il ?
I hate online translators. I'll guess the fayth.
Ohhhhh, French isn't fair. :( I only speak English and Spanish and a bit of Japanese.
And one sentence in Al Bhed. :)
However, Babelfish says
"I am heard but not considering.
I am all around you.
But only under ground.
Take guard of the rodents."
The Farplane?
It's not Fayth, Pyreflies, Vegnagun, or the Farplane.
Repost:
Je suis entendu mais pas vu.
Je suis tout autour de vous.
Mais seulement sous terre.
Prenez garde des rongeurs.
And the riddle as it was written in English:
I am heard but not seen.
I am all around you.
But only underground
Beware of rodents.
HintAs with my Al Bhed riddles, the language it a clue in of itself.
Thanks. I usually leaf through the strategy guide until I hit a page that has something interesting on it. Then I latch onto a critical line to express the riddle, and then I build supporting lines around it.Quote:

There aren't any rat enemies but maybe it's talking about a person being a rat ya know? Is it Shuyin?
Fem goons?
No, but they are indirectly involved.
the hot springs at gagazet?
I had to go digging for the title of this once I actually figured it out: It's the song "Trois Souris au Chateau Leblanc" on the soundtrack, which I think translates to "Three Mice In Leblanc's House."
oh darn.If only I had the game.Trois Souris au Chateau Leblanc in french is Three Mice in Leblanc's castle.Darn it!lol I need to get a copy of the game.:mad:Canciones estúpidas
If Queen Anthai is right, this has to be one of the best riddles i've read....... anywhere....... ever. Kudos to BG-57:mog:
Nope.
Yes indeed. :D
I am heard but not seen. (Music is invisible)
I am all around you. (Music is pervasive)
But only underground (Chateau Leblanc is in Guadosalam)
Beware of rodents. (Refers to the 'mice' in the song title)
And French should call to mind Leblanc.
I tried to make it something you could find out in the game itself. But I'm sure the ST song list is out there somewhere.
Merci. :)
It's Queen Anthai's go.

Seen in different worlds
but never quite like this,
Hidden by the forgotten remains of the past,
you may find me within evil sight.
I am the destruction of the past,
I am the spirit of the dead
hmmm trema
Nope
shuyin
Hmmm...is it the Farplane's mist/power/stuff? It's rumored to be related to the Mako energy from FFVII.
No to both, woo maybe I made a good riddle for once :D but then again only three people have guessed so far
hmmm sin or vegnagun
lenne?
anima ....
if not can you give a hint
Repost:

No to Anima
Hint: The answer is indirectly related to another fiend (last line of the first part)
This may be a bad hint unless you really study your enemies, but the longer this takes the better the hints. Also try giving some reason to your answers, it's better than just guessing because you'll get closer to the answer. :)
omega weapon perhaps
Nope shorry, Woo! Thish ish my besht riddle sho far. Heh hypello :D
Anymore guesses? Come on people don't die on me. :(
Shuyin? xD
Is it Sin? It's talking about spirit of death, and in X, Auron kept saying Spira was a death spiral, all going towards Sin or something like that. It was talking about forgetting to, and since it's the Eternal Calm, they probably tried to forget about Sin.
No to both, the last two lines contain two words that help describe the thing or in other words is another meaning for it.
Omega Weapon?
No but your thinking on the right track I guess you could say :)
Is it that guy trauma or something?
No it's not Trema
Ultima Weapon?
Nope, keep guessing and try to give some reasoning and maybe do some reasearch on your answers? ;)

just reposting it....
i also guess,pyreflies???
Good guess but no sorry

No to both, I'll give another hint soon
An unsent?
No but yes? I guess that can be your other clue, what happens to someone when they die but aren't unsent?
a fiend!!!
i think......>.>
Yeah a fiend is made, so the answer to the riddle is a fiend? ...who knows you'll just have to keep guessing to find out :D
Random Encounters?
o.o no remember I said it was a fiend...well I kinda did. Yeah it's a fiend
i got the last three but you guys responded before me, but i don't know this one
a certain TYPE of fiend?! good lord.....uh,um.......
the unsent maesters in the via infinitio who turn INTO fiends??
Nope but good guess :)
*bangs head on wall* THERE'S NOT ENOUGH INFO!!!!waaahh.....*sob*
the possessed fayth..or yeah.
I'm sorry...nope :)
okay....lets see.....it is a noun,right??
place:zanarkand!!

Paragon? A Fiend version of Zaon.
that guys name who i cant remember right now.hes the final via boss..
Trema.
No to both, try giving reasons it makes it funner for me. :) Plus I can help a little more if you give reason...I think.
ive really got no more to go off of.im randomly guessing.kinda.
aeons??they're not fiends but..uh....yeah
still no, this fiend can be found after chapter 1 I believe. I'm not too sure but I think it's true. bad hint again sorry but im just really sucky at hints. its not your everyday friendly neighborhood fiend ya know?
Great Haunt? A large spirt of death found in Bikanel and Bevelle.
No but you're on the right track :)
Mega Tonberry?
They're supersized versions of the Tonberries that haunt many an FF game.
No, the fiend is more...complex? I guess you could say complex
Angra Mainyu?
is it a boss??or maybe those zoran thingies..
Let's hear your reasoning.
i get it.....i probably would still have guessed it last,though.
Seen in different worlds
but never quite like this- Angra Mainyu is in Final Fantasy XI as the chief of the area Dynamis - Beaucedine, also the Ahriman is seen in other Final Fantasys as a winged demon with one eye.
Hidden by the forgotten remains of the past,- You find the fiend in the...damn I forgot the name of the desert but I'm sure you know the desert I'm talking about. The "forgotten remains of the past" refers to all the junk machina you find in the desert and probably under the desert as well.
you may find me within evil sight- This refers to the relationship between Ahriman and Angra Mainyu; in Zurvanite Zoroastrianism Angra Mainyu is some type of destruction spirit god type thing. I didn't read all of the wiki page on the religious beliefs and the history of angra mainyu but I discovered that it was also known as "Ahriman" Zoroastrianism and it is also the middle persian equivalent of Ahriman.
I am the destruction of the past,
I am the spirit of the dead- These two lines were to show that it was a fiend; the destruction of the past meaning someone dies and after a while the spirit of the dead or the pyreflies combine to make the fiend. Also Angra Mainyu was refered to as a destructive spirit in the Avestan-language.
If you want to take a look for yourself
Angra Mainyu - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia heres the link
Not to shabby eh? My best riddle yet :) So it's your go BG
Bikanel Desert.
I didn't know half those references, I just followed the hints. :p
I'll post a riddle later tonight.
EDIT: Here we go.
In a floor pattern
Not a sacred symbol
Merely ordinary
Above the three
did you mean 'sacred' symbol??
is it the third floor in djose temple???
Not in Djose, and yes I meant sacred.
The teleportation symbols in Via Infinito.
Not in Via Infinito.
The platform in the Bevell Underground that controls the machine thing?
Not in Bevelle.
The symbol/platforms on Mushroom Rock Road.
It's not in Mushroom Rock Road.
The symbol on the deck of the Celsius?
Not in the Celcius.
damn it bg! must you take over all riddle threads!?!
Well if it makes you feel any better, I'm sitting out the FFXII riddle thread.
Repost:
In a floor pattern
Not a sacred symbol

Above the three
the glyph in the cloister of trials
and temptation will give in soon enough. it is only a matter of time now ;-)
the floor in luca?
The Piano Keybads in the Farplane that you have to use to play Shuyin's Song.
It's not in the Farplane.
That 'Above the three' line, possibly about the Magus Sisters which you have to fight on the way down to the Farplane? And their symbols aren't religious, just symbols, and presumably, you fight them under where their Fayth Statues used to be, like all of the other Aeons.
But I'm confused. Is the answer a place or the symbol itself? Or are you allowed tell?
So I'm gonna take 3 guesses if thats alright.
1: If its a place, that long twisting road down to the Farplane in Chapter 5.
2. If its a symbol, the Magus' Sisters symbols.
3. If its anything else, the Magus Sisters.
Hope thats alright.:D
It's not in the Farplane Abyss.
HintIf you read my replies carefully, that will narrow things down a lot.
you are WAY to good at making riddles. Usually I would guess but this time I cant come up with an answer.
Start with a place. Then you can narrow down from there.
So it's not in the farplane, not in bevelle, and not in mushroom rock, perhaps it's on a person rather than in a place.
My guess is the black symbol on Yuna's shirt. Here's why:
1: In a floorpattern. The symbol on her shirt is from Zanarkand, so maybe she saw it there on the floor.
2: Not a sacred symbol. The symbol on her shirt probably isn't sacred.
3: Merely ordinary. The symbol does not give any magic powers or anything like that.
4: Above the three. Yuna is above Rikku and Paine in importance in the Gullwings.
That's my reasoning, though I'm probably wrong.
You're right about the place. It's in Zanarkand Ruins.
Zanarkand Ruins......
Is it Lord Zaon's fayth statue?
In a floor pattern - the statue's in the floor
Not a sacred symbol - nobody knew that Lord Zaon was the fayth, therefore, its not sacred. Or its broken, so its not sacred anymore? I'm not sure
Merely ordinary - No power anymore, just a regular statue
Above the three - Not physically above but above as in importance. As in above/more important than the other three summoners/guardians who went on the pilgrimage to Zanarkand.
So, Lord Zaon's statue?
It's not Zaon's statue.
Is it the platform you take to go down to Zaon's statue?? The one you fought that one boss on in Final Fantasy X.
Is it a chapter-specific answer, or something that is consistent throughout the game?
is it the elevator mabobber??
It's not the platform.
You can visit the place more than once in the game.
Nope.
HintI'm looking for the symbol this location resembles, not the location itself.
I think that hint makes it harder . . . T_T
HintLook at a map of Zanarkand Ruins.
Is it that little offshoot of the temple approach that's above the three "fingers" where you find the Mega Phoenix in Chapter 1?
No. I'll post a map to help things.
is it the area that looks like a question mark?
Just a random guess.....
No, but you've got the right idea.
All right, is it the checkerboard pattern that's underneath where you fought Yunalesca?
That's the correct location. What symbol does that resemble?
#
You are correct! the answer is #.
Your go, Queen Anthai. :)
On and on and on and on,
But necessary to finish correctly
With a kind gesture.
Finale?
No.
Whistling in the farplane abyss place when Yuna falls in Djose?
No.
No.
The fights with the New Yevon members at Mushroom Rock Road?
More likely thee fights with the Youth League members on Mushroom Rock Road.
