Zack Cloud and Sephiroth on their trip to clouds home town?
Next hint: (SPOILER)zacks_clone has two out of the three people correct.
(By giving a hint, I imply you are all wrong. :D)
Zack and cloud in the back of the truck! with the old guy!
Hold still and listen. (Old guy talking to Zack)
What? No! That's not what I said!(After Zack says he'll be a mercenary,the old man goes on about that not being it at all)
You'll get yourself killed (most likely the old mans thoughts on the mercenary bit)
What did I tell you? (Zack does die)
You came close but fell just short. (midgar,and being ever so close,but zack died before he could reach it)
At least he still lives... (clouds alive still)
Congratulations - I was going to be in trouble if I needed to give another hint. Go for it.
Three on one
Three on two
Always there
Save before dreames come true
Seen you before
Know the type
An X runs with us
From dark of night
My initial thought is the Turks, though that X is making me think probably not.
correct. the X is meaning ex- as in ex turk. ex-turk= Vincent.
Nice riddle. Okay this one could be tricky, as before I'm gonna try a new style.
In the depths of a valley that watches the stars,
I lie guarding heroes from long ago wars.
My name will not help you I tell you no lie,
To solve this riddle just think what am I?
From cradle to grave the stages divide,
Then one final fight from all others unite.
But what transports the first is the question I ask,
Now remember this too so you can solve this task.
Put your answers together and ask yourself this,
For the clues should now tell you just what your quest is.
Be it high in the sky or deep down underground,
Tell me dear players just where am I found?
In the depths of a valley that watches the stars,
I lie guarding heroes from long ago wars. (Seto)
My name will not help you I tell you no lie,
To solve this riddle just think what am I? (a beast, Nanaki's father)
(Seto - he is a beast)
From cradle to grave the stages divide, (Jenova birth, life, death)
Then one final fight from all others unite. (Jenova synthesis)
But what transports the first is the question I ask, (jenova's body or cargo ship)
Now remember this too so you can solve this task.
(Jenova - I'll go with being transported by jenova's body)
Put your answers together and ask yourself this,
For the clues should now tell you just what your quest is.
Be it high in the sky or deep down underground,
Tell me dear players just where am I found?
Combination of the two - closest match is the Northern Crater in Disc II. Nanaki holds the Black Materia, and Jenova's body is reunited there.
It's probably far off, but that's the best way I could think of combining the two. Or maybe I'm wrong about the first one, I'm pretty sure I'm somewhat right about the second part...
You really couldn't include that in a riddle because you can choose from multiple people to give the black materia to.Quote:
Combination of the two - closest match is the Northern Crater in Disc II. Nanaki holds the Black Materia, and Jenova's body is reunited there.
If it's a location you're looking for then I would have to say out back of cosmo canyon, just because of the first verse.
the mountains in wutai?i cannot remember them.the ones with the faces
In the depths of a valley that watches the stars,: valleys in the game, wutai, cosmo canyon, underwater, that place with the table mountains that you need a chocobo to reach.
I lie guarding heroes from long ago wars.: red 13's dad most probable, other possabilitys include the man who gives you aeires weapon or limit (I forget), or the plane underwater, or hades which I think is found in the plane which would tie in with the from long ago wars part.
My name will not help you I tell you no lie,
To solve this riddle just think what am I?: A statue?, A old man?, A Plane?, A god?
From cradle to grave the stages divide,; Life?, probably jenova.
Then one final fight from all others unite.: Again probably jenova
But what transports the first is the question I ask,. If it is hades then the plane.
Now remember this too so you can solve this task.
Put your answers together and ask yourself this,: God+jenova+plane
For the clues should now tell you just what your quest is.
Be it high in the sky or deep down underground,.: Ties in with the plane.
Tell me dear players just where am I found? Ok this is a little bit confusing for me and I lost it about half way through but the only thing
I think the answer could be space or the sky. God = heaven, jenova = came from space, plane flys in the sky.
Well I know Im waaay of but thats seriously all I can think of. This is confusing :mad:
princeofdarknez got the right thinking perfectly, falling just short but in several places. I'll give the hint that Seto IS a hero of long ago wars, so think a bit more.
I am thinking afew people here. Sephiroth in the crater,or...possibly Elymarys(Aeris foster moth.cannot remember her name) husband.
Ummm, no. princeofdarknez had a lot of the elements to solving the riddle, some parts near bang on, though the final answer is way off.
I'd probably recommend approaching the riddle from scratch though rather than trying to pick right from wrong too much. Also don't think too hard about the first two parts, as this is three riddles in one I tried to keep them simple (ish).
In the depths of a valley that watches the stars,
I lie guarding heroes from long ago wars.
My name will not help you I tell you no lie,
To solve this riddle just think what am I?
This makes me think that the answer is stone. Seto is petrified and it asks what he is so I would say stone, rock etc.
From cradle to grave the stages divide,
Then one final fight from all others unite.
But what transports the first is the question I ask,
Now remember this too so you can solve this task.
I think that POD was right with the Jenova thing but the thing that transports Jenova I would say is more likely to be Sephiroth as he carries her everywhere.
Put your answers together and ask yourself this,
For the clues should now tell you just what your quest is.
Be it high in the sky or deep down underground,
Tell me dear players just where am I found?
But I'm not sure how I could link these two together. I can only really think that stone is referring to the northern crater and Sephiroth is obviously the Sephiroths you fight there...............
Unless stone is referring to meteor?
Here's my two cents.
What is the most prominent thing when you see Seto petrified? The moon, stars.
Then, what transports Jenova Birth? A ship.
Moon+ship = rocket.
Rocket Town?
Good but I don't think that complies with the "To solve this riddle just think what am I?" in the first verse
Other possibilities for guardians of long-lost heroes:
Gi-Nattak?
Stingers?
:confused:
He already said seto was the right answer and it says what transports the first question and I can think of anything that would transport seto, unless its a metaphorical thing, or its transporting stone.
then the other one might be the ghost thing in cosmo canyon.
aww Im too confused.
i have been thinking ancient forest for the oddest of resons
Nah. Seto IS a hero of long-ago wars. We are looking for what guards heroes of long-ago wars. Bugenhagen, maybe?Quote:

Why's that?Quote:

Skogs has been VERY close to getting the solution, with some of his ideas.
Maxico by a twisted logic also stumbled onto something.
I'll leave it open for a little bit before giving a hint.
In the depths of (Cosmo Canyon)
I lie guarding (Seto).
My name will not help you I tell you no lie,
To solve this riddle just think what am I?
(Bugenhagen guards Seto's resting place - he is old, dead even)
(JENOVA Birth, Life, Death),
(JENOVA Synthesis).
But what transports the first is the question I ask, (Cargo Ship)
(Answer to part 2).
Put your answers together and ask yourself this,
For the clues should now tell you just what your quest is.
Be it high in the sky or deep down underground,
Tell me dear players just where am I found?
Answer 1 - old or dead
Answer 2 - a ship
Answer 3 = 1+2 = old, dead, ship = Ghost Ship
Location of Answer 3 = Junon Underwater Reactor
Maybe?
Well I was thinking Gi Nattak for the first part, but yup, perfect answer. Go ahead princeofdarknez!
Hmm... I see how you meant Gi Nattak, but I couldn't construe him as guarding Seto. It all lead to the same answer though, so I guess it works out anyways. Nice riddle, though - it rhymed and everything! :D
It took me a while to think of a good one - I scrapped two potentials. A simple, short three-liner - you'll either get it right off the bat or be stumped for some time. Good luck!
It's simple, no really.
First do five, then do three.
You really shouldn't pay me.
bah i havn't done this in a while but from reading your riddle for a split second my first thought is yuffie....dunno why heh
*Takes most abstract shot ever*
A trick in the crater to get duplicates of items on one of the paths to Sephiroth?
Barret,Aeris,Tifa,Red,and Cloud(5) when the leave sector 7 and split into a group of 3(any three) and cloud happens to be a mercenary,looking for money
Whoa, all way off. It's actually quite literal - once again, the only issue is where to start.
If you defeat the enemies on all five rail cars, then enter the three controls in the engine car, you don't need to pay the guy in Corel for the Ultima materia?
Am I warm?
Uhh... no, not even close. But at least you're trying to take it literally.
If nothing's warming up by tonight, I'll probably drop a hint. I like these things to go fast.
Umm... I guess since the most recent VB posts got deleted, I'll post what I remember of the thread. SRL got my riddle correct - the answer was "the Mog House game where the person behind you pays 30 GP". It's his/her turn to riddle now.
Actually we've been through that, we're now up to one from me, I don't know if any answers were put forward though. I think it went like this..
Though measures extreme against party decorations,
They get the job done fighting alien invasions.
For the best of the best will reap the rewards,
Espescially if they fear the rain more than enemy swords.
Speed Square at the Golden Saucer.
If I'm right, someone else go ahead and make up a riddle. I'm useless.
You are, and go ahead whoever turns up.
Here's a really easy one so that someone else can get it and make a riddle.
Tired of attacking once per turn?
Is twice attacking what you yearn,
Maybe even four attacks if you can learn?
Then equip me :)
So, you know you got it right, go ahead and make another riddle.
EDIT: aww dammit somebody beat me to it.
Im guessing quadra magic materia
Double Cut Materia.
I'm drunk right now, so I'll make an easy riddle. Or maybe its hard. I dunno.
Rock, paper, scissors!
Well, actually, its not quite that.
Although its usually luck, not skill,
For some reason, it gets harder each time.
The fighting game in Wonder Square.
Yep. There's a trend to my stuff - I need to mix it up. Anyways, go ahead.
I can't think right now, someone else go, if I get back before someone else gets here I'll try and come up with one.
You find me after a small fee...
Of sacrifice to obtain me...
Only to be...
Stolen from he...
And while there are many of thee...
You can equip them but not me.
The black materia?
O_______O Yes!
Your turn.
Woohoo! And... Dammit! I'm tired of making these up at the minute, but okay. I'm going with a (semi) new style again, and I'm not gonna make this easy. You might get it quickly, you might not.
Carried past a serpent on much faster feet,
Fall from a bridge and land like from God,
A fight in the depths of a ship as it sails,
Burn out of town on two wheels and three,
Bring down a reactor and get out in time,
You help a young girl who has just lost her breathe.
First of the first,
Then second of second,
And son so forth,
Till the answer is beckoned.
The Cetra?
Carried past a serpent on much faster feet, (Sephiroth carried Jenova, I guess)
Fall from a bridge and land like from God, (fall into Aeris' church)
A fight in the depths of a ship as it sails, (you fight Jenova in the ship)
Burn out of town on two wheels and three, (I dunno)
Bring down a reactor and get out in time, (you find Aeris after the first mission)
You help a young girl who has just lost her breathe. (" " " ")
Not even close, here's a hint, you won't get it by only using half the riddle.
Well, the riddle made sense with the Cetra as the answer. :)
I'm thinking it has something to do with Cloud.
AVALANCH?
I can get something from each line but I don't know how to put it together, maybe somebody else can get it from this.
Carried past a serpent on much faster feet, (past the Midgar Zolom on a chocobo)
Fall from a bridge and land like from God,(Fall from reactor 5 and fall into a church)
A fight in the depths of a ship as it sails,(Engine room of cargo ship against Jenova)
Burn out of town on two wheels and three,(bust out of Shinra building on a motorbike and in a van)
Bring down a reactor and get out in time,(set the bomb and escape the reactor)
You help a young girl who has just lost her breathe.(I'm thinking when you stop to help Jessie, I guess that would fit best)
Perhaps the last part means words or letters. The first letter of the first word, then second letter of second word, or first word of first line, and so on. But it doesn't seem to fit.
hmm.... Nice maybe its words, letters or lines :mog: It's confusing either way
A thought I'd try taking the first word of the first line, then second of the second line and so on... but that didn't make sense (it gave: carried from in town and who).
I notice that the events aren't in chronological order, so I rearrange them:
Bring down a reactor and get out in time, (first attack on Mako reactor in Midgar)
Fall from a bridge and land like from God, (falling into Aeris' church)
Burn out of town on two wheels and three, (leaving Midgar on motorbike and truck, big flame thing)
Carried past a serpent on much faster feet, (catch a chocobo to escape Midgar Zolom)
You help a young girl who has just lost her breathe. (rescue the girl in Junon)
A fight in the depths of a ship as it sails (fight Jenove Birth on ship)
I tried the 'first word of the first line, then second of the second line and so on' thing again... but it still didn't make sense (bring from of serpent girl ship).
But then I thought 'no, he couldn't mean letters - he wouldn't be THAT devious'.
I tried it anyway:
Bring...
Fall...
Burn...
Carried...
You help...
A fight...
...Barret?
Ouch......................*Head implodes*
Congratulations either way; if it's correct.
...oh....i loath you for your cleaverness
I must say Skogs I am VERY impressed you got that so quickly, your turn extremely well deserved :D.
Sometimes you get lucky. For ages I thought I was barking up the wrong tree.
Gimme a bit of time to think of something. Gimme a half hour or so.
Just to point out the reason I put them not in chronological order was because otherwise there wouldn't be any FF knowledge required to get the answer. Just in case anyone thought I was being cruel :P.
No! I can't wait that long! Over here it's already past midnight!Quote:

Dunno how obvious this is... I'm better at solving them then thinking of them. :tongue:
The first line reminds me of Ultima weapon... But I don't know what isn't free about it, unless you're talking about the price being that it gets weaker if you do....
Where as the second half of the riddle reminds me of Sephiroth clones and RedXIII. You know him to be #13, but it's #1 i.e Sephiroth that you're after.... I hope one of those is right...
It's too early to start giving out hints yet! :p I won't say anything!
EDIT:// I'm going to bed soon, though, so if it's not got soon you'll have to wait until tomorrow!
So I'm guessing I wasn't right then.... Could you at least say if one of them is on the right track? pweeeeeaaazzeee!
I'll say that you need to look at the whole riddle.
Hmmm, this may be a good guess or a stupid guess, it depends if the first reactor is the highest numbered one in Midgar, if it is it's my guess.
I draw strength from your life, (Power taken from the lifestream)
But this strength is not free, (Shinra use it commercially, also it harms the planet)
You will know me as the last, (If it's the highest numbered sector this makes sense)
But it's the first that you seek. (It's the first goal you have)
Good idea, but no.
I draw strength from your life,(spirits going to the lifestream/aeris going to the planet through lifestream as spirit)
But this strength is not free,(having to kill her,not keep her alive)
You will know me as the last,(a clone)
But it's the first that you seek.(the original)
Sephiroths Plan to become a god,by having metor hit the planet,killing all the people,and thus having the planet heal itself.
Nope. Miles off track. I'm looking for something very specific.
(SPOILER)o_w_a had a good idea...
Well if one of his answers was right then I was gonna say Ultima Weapon with a full (though abstract) explanation.
the shrouded clones in nibleheim.
They get strength from the jenova cells
but they have to go back to the crater where they are absorbed by jenova
they are numbered
and sephiroth who you are chasing is the first.
PhoenixAsh: I said one of his answers was on the right track - I didn't say it was right. Read the last two lines of the riddle...
Oh I know, I didn't think you'd be that harsh, that's why I didn't give my explanation for it being Ultima Weapon.
it's the guy in the entrance to the golden square place who changes the gil for gp the easiest way to earn the cash.
Err... nope.
(SPOILER)Ultima Weapon is part of the riddle, but its not the answer. Look at the last two lines.
I'll go with Buster Sword.
I draw strength from your life, (Ultima Weapon depends on HP)
But this strength is not free, (as HP down, strength down, MP/items spent to build it up again... etc.)
You will know me as the last, (It is an ULTIMATE weapon - so it is the last)
But it's the first that you seek. (First - initial equipment => Buster Sword)
So, Buster Sword.
If this is indeed the answer, I'd say you drew a close line there - it could easily be construed to mean Yuffie or Cait Sith's initial equipment as well. Fortunately, Buster Sword's description is "initial equiping [sic]", so that works as well.
i certainly would never have thought of that for a guess
BINGO. Buster Sword it is. Your go! :tongue:
(The site I checked said that Conformer got a powerup if the enemy was strong, and that Cait Sith's weapon was MP-based. It may well have been wrong. But yeah, I'll cover my ass by saying that Buster Sword is the first weapon in the game. So there. :D )
actually...Quote:

and i don't know about Aeris's weapon ;)
but in any case, go ahead and riddle, princeofdarknessez
Aeris's weapon powers up when an ally is in critical or wounded condition.
There are a few ways to go about solving this. I think it's fairly obvious, but I could be wrong. I'll supply hints along the way if necessary.
I am the music that plays, you know
When the inversion of my numbers returns home.
Not necessarily said inversion's theme,
but a variation on it, I believe.
reunion?
Is it the Cosmo Canyon theme, which is a variation on Red XIII's theme? On the 3rd disc of the soundtrack it's the 1st track; the numbers 3 and 1 being inverted from the 13 in Red XIII's name.
That's it.
This one might be easy compared to the last few riddles:
Two go together, though one resists,
Both as ones who don't exist.
He determines what's in store,
She's the one from three before.
Choosing her is the "correct" path,
But choose her foe and you'll face her wrath.
I think its a monster. Or a pair of monsters, rather. One monster executes commands while one doesn't (resists, even). They can be distinguished by gender. If you attack the female, that's what you should do, but if you attack the other, bad news. Or those last two lines could just indicate that they are monsters, and that if you side with them, that's good, but if you don't, you face their wrath - you fight them.
But I can't think of anything that fits this description. Bah.
Nope, sorry.
for some reason I blame the code it showed the riddle as being something totally different to what it was last time that is the explanation for my wayy off answer.
As for this one something to do with elena from the turks??
thats what i believe too,fallen angel. Attack Ellena in the slum fight on disk two.Your last real fight with the turks. She the female in the group of three males(now two,sense tesengs death).
If it's not Elena I'll guess Tifa.
Two go together, though one resists, (Cloud and Tifa, Cloud doesn't know his feelings)
Both as ones who don't exist. (Both act as if their past is different)
He determines what's in store, (It's Cloud's call as to their relationship, and he's the leader)
She's the one from three before. (If this was five I'd have gone with years since they were together, but I can't quite fit this)
Choosing her is the "correct" path, (Aeris isn't gonna be a lasting relationship)
But choose her foe and you'll face her wrath. (Tifa gets upset in the Temple when Cait is talking).
I say elena cause you fight the turks 3 times before the fight that zacks clone mentioned but yeah I still say elnena of the turks
Nope, neither Elena nor Tifa have anything to do with the riddle.
The "Two go together" in the first line refers to both characters literally going somewhere.
Two go together, though one resists,(cloud and aeris escaping church)
Both as ones who don't exist.(the one who doesnt excist is zack)
He determines what's in store,(cloud tossing barrels?)
She's the one from three before.(not sure here. three parents?)
Choosing her is the "correct" path,(aeris is usual thought of as the good girl,tifa the bad)
But choose her foe and you'll face her wrath.(the aeris Vs. tifa)
Aeris and Cloud?
Are you talking about when Cloud goes on the date and they go to the Event Square and they perform the play with the other actors?
Two go together, though one resists, (Cloud doesn't want to go onstage)
Both as ones who don't exist. (They are both acting)
He determines what's in store, (Cloud makes several choices through the play)
She's the one from three before. (The date's character is Rosa, lead female from FFIV, three FFs prior to FFVII)
Choosing her is the "correct" path, (You should save your date)
But choose her foe and you'll face her wrath. (If not, she'll slap/punch you)
That's it, SRL.
:: mutters :: i knew that...
haha,no i didnt. good job SRL
Thanks zacks_clone. :D
To walk on all fours,
A sound you might endure.
And you'd feel a little better,
Without potions, or even cure.
*wild, random guess*
Lunatic High?
Not even close.
Wow......this thread has 500 posts.
without potion or even cure...i'm gonna assume this means you can get recovered.
*takes two guesses*
Cloud being beaten awake by the guy in the Honey Bee Inn?
Cloud touching the Hotsprings in the snow fields?
Your assumption is correct, but no and no.
Cat's Bell?
To walk on all fours, (a cat walks on all fours)
A sound you might endure. (the bell's sound)
And you'd feel a little better, (it recovers your HP with each step)
Without potions, or even cure. (not using these to recover HP)
Correct princeofdarknez.
I really can't think of a riddle now. Next poster gets to riddle.
WOOHOO! I'M NEXT POSTER!
Out from the beast's heart
with him along,
engineering comes in handy
to win.
meeting "him" again
after raiding the lost "ark",
and also the closet,
A dear and lost friend,
and a friend from your home.
What am i talking about?
and also the closet,
A dear and lost friend,
and a friend from your home.
That's gotta be when you take the Orthopaedic underwear from Tifa's closet, and I'm guessing that "he" is Sephiroth and the lost "ark" is the reactor and I'm guessing "meeting him" means after he goes A.W.O.L so I would guess that it's when you go down to the basement in Cloud's past but I can't seem to get it to fit with the rest of the riddle....
I'll guess Vincent.
Out from the beast's heart (Hojo)
with him along,
engineering comes in handy (Hojo genetically re-engineers him)
to win.
meeting "him" again (meeting Vincent)
after raiding the lost "ark", (you fight Lost Number)
and also the closet, (the closet in the basement)
A dear and lost friend,
and a friend from your home. (former Turks - Midgar, or, you find him in Nibelheim)
I have several other guesses too - Dyne, Seto... it's pretty open, and a bit ambiguous from what I see so far.
im guessing Cloud
Out from the beasts heart (sephiroth clone)
with him along, (when they go to the reactor in Clouds story)
engineering comes in handy (being made by Hojo)
to win.
meeting "him" again (meeting sephiroth on the boat to the second continent)
after raiding the lost "ark", (the boat)
and also the closet, (the room that you meet him in)
A dear lost friend, (Tifa)
and a friend from your home (Zack)
A dear lost friend, (Tifa)
and a friend from your home (Zack)
surely that should be the other way round because Zack ISN'T from your home, he's from Gongaga and he is lost because he dies when they escape from the tanks in the Shinra mansion. Where as Tifa IS from your home and yet she isn't lost :eep:
Zack is from youre home because Cloud was made and was confused and had some of Zacks memories
and Tifa is a dear lost frien because you hadn't seen her for a long time
1. Don't double post, use the edit/delete function
2. It still makes more sense to have it the other way round....
:D This is the longest thread I have ever seen (or at least taken notice of) and I started it!! :D
wow good guesses everybody...
but nope. :p
Zack was from Gongaga.Cloud WASNT made.If your talking they both escaped from the basment which had become their home...then yes.Quote:

A dear and lost friend,(aeris)
and a friend from your home.(midgar?)
im thinking the scean that plays after yoh have the key of the ancients...the one that shows Aeris's death again
XD
nope again!
Is this to do with meeting back up with Dyne?
Out from the beast's heart (the prison)

to win (to get there)
meeting "him" again (Meeting Dyne again)
A dear and lost friend (Dyne or his wife)
and a friend from your home (Marlene or Dyne)
wrong again.
ok, here's a hint....
There's a reason that i put "to win" on a separate line.
Curses! :P
I thought I had it.
I'm guessing when it says
Out form the beast's heart,
With him along
It's not to be taken seperately. It means out from the beast's heart, with the beast along......... Possibly. But I still have no idea what it could be.
What and not who?...hm...Well,i'll guess Zack for the heck of it. Some stuff actually fits him.Out of the beasts heart with him along would fit...Quote:

wow that's a VERY good alternate explanation...if i was talking about Cait Sith! :p
nope!
but i will give you another hint...
1/9 of your guess was right.
If no one can guess this riddle by...say, Saturday, I'll give the answer and start a new one.
Out from the beast's heart

meeting "him" again((sephiroth's image(or possible clone),would explain the "" around him))
after raiding the lost "ark",(temple of ancients)
and also the closet,(closet...perhaps the diffrent stages about the temple "clock")
A dear and lost friend,(aeris)
and a friend from your home(tifa)
my goodness...no clue....diffrent love triangles in the game!i dunno
Does it have to do with getting everyone's ultimate weapons?
Out from the beast's heart (Cloud's Ultima Weapon comes from Ultimate Weapon, who came out of the earth)
with him along, (Barret must be in your party to get his Missing Score)
engineering comes in handy (You have to work with that machine to get Tifa's Premium Heart)
to win. (You have to win a fight against some monsters to get Aeris's Princess Guard)
meeting "him" again (You must meet with Bugenhagen again to get Red XIII's Limited Moon)
after raiding the lost "ark", (Yuffie's Conformer is in the sunken Gelnika)
and also the closet, (Cait Sith's HP Shout is in Reeve's locker)
A dear and lost friend, (Vincent's Death Penalty comes from his lost friend Lucrecia)
and a friend from your home. (An old man from Rocket Town gives Cid the Venus Gospel)
Damn - beat me to the follow up. Funny thing is, I would have done an ultimate weapon riddle, but I thought it would be too easy given the limit break riddle a while back. Haha, oh well.
Hmm, I'm guessing that it's to do with The Temple of Anicents.
Out from the beast's heart (?)
with him along, (Sephiroth)
engineering comes in handy (Cait Sith sacrifices himself)
to win. (to get the black materia)
meeting "him" again (Sephiroth or Cait Sith 2)
after raiding the lost "ark", (After going through the temple)
and also the closet, (Skeletons in Cloud's closet)
A dear and lost friend, (Aeris)
and a friend from your home. (Reeve or Tifa)
I hope this is a good guess, I'm no good at these things usually :)

Here goes:
I have a title that sounds impressive,
But I'm really just controlled by the oppressive.
I stand in your way and won't let you pass,
To get through, a correct answer is all that I ask.
If you get it right on your first guess,
You'll get a gift that helps on your quest.
Alone it does nothing, with another it's best,
You can hurt others more or get hurt less.
The mayor of Midgar who gives you an all materia if you get the answer right on the first guess.
Actually, the mayor of Midgar gives you an Elemental materia if you guess his password right on the first try, in addition to his keycard.
Dunno if that's different enough from the above response to warrant a correct answer.
Oops yeah I didn't read the last two lines properly. Your go.
Yeah, you're right. I would have given it to Hooters for his guess, but princeofdarknez got is exactly right. So whichever one of you wants to go can go.
Uh - I guess I'll go ahead with an easy one.
I was once given a fairy tale,
For defeating men in death's cradle.
When I finally got to heaven,
My mind was still filled with seven.
Who am I?
Tifas Seventh Heaven Bar?
*sigh*
I was once given a fairy tale, (you get Fairy Tale from beating Reno in Gongaga, which is a weapon for Aeris)
For defeating men in death's cradle.(Reno and Rude in Gongaga)
When I finally got to heaven, (Aeris dies)
My mind was still filled with seven.(?)
so...
Aeris.
Yeah - I said it was easy. Although I'd like to see if you can crack that last line... anyways, your go.
My mind was still filled with seven. (Seven playable characters besides Aeris?)
Aren't there eight playable characters besides Aeris? Do you mean that she only has seven slots on her ultimate weapon?
the game is final fantasy VII(7)...that may be it:P i would say 7 people at her death,but there is only 6(if you include her)
heheh..my turn again? this is fun.
this one is quite easy if you get the right picture.
Around and around,
up and down,
back and forth,
over your heart.
Across a sharp edge,
bouncing and jumping,
jumping and jumping,
twirling and stopping,
with a bright fire that gives you life (and takes it away).
Try to solve this.
No one's gotten the last line yet... it was meant to imply the Fairy Tale has seven slots, and so does the Princess Guard, her final weapon.
As for the current riddle, I'll guess the Northern Crater.
Around and around,
up and down,
back and forth,
over your heart.
(around the spiral/climbing up and down/going left and right - the first three parts of the Northern Crater | over your heart - heart of the planet)
Across a sharp edge,
bouncing and jumping,
jumping and jumping,
twirling and stopping,
with a bright fire that gives you life (and takes it away).
(I'm guessing this refers to holy - the first four lines again refer to jumping around here and there in the Northern Crater)
nope. :p you're WAAAAAAAAAAAY away from the right answer.
i'd say the clock in the temple of ancient.
around and around
up and down
back and forth refering to the pointers of the clock
over my heart | the heart is the center of the clock and u walk on it
the sharp edge are the pointer which are very sharp if i remember well
bouncing and jumping
jumping and jumping | because int the last cave u have to cath a man by jumping from floor to floor
twirling and stoping because when u catch this man the clock stops
and the bright fire would be the black materia ( or the temple itself which is the same) because the black materia supply the clock with its power and when u take the black materia you cut its energy supply
at least i hope it makes sense even if not the right answer
i'll agree with the answer supplyed before mine,the clock face...
but i will guess another just in case...The date you have with whichever character?
I'm guessing the last line has something to do with the Phoenix summon. I can't remember if you get that at the clock though.
all wrong.
all the jumping and twirling reminds me of Yuffie:P
The jumping and the fire remind me of Nanaki/Red XIII.
The fire makes me think of Gi Nattak and Soul Fires, the boss battle in Gi cave... I know it's probobly wrong, but hey! It's worth a shot!
you've picked up a trail, zacks_clone :DQuote:

Around and around, (referring to chasing Yuffie around Wutai)
up and down, (")
back and forth, (")
over your heart. (Across the chest of the statue)
Across a sharp edge, (?)
bouncing and jumping,
jumping and jumping,
twirling and stopping,
with a bright fire that gives you life (and takes it away). (There is a fire in th cave which you need to get Leviathan scales to get past) (This could also be referring to the materia that she steals, life force->magic etc.)

go ahead and keep telling yourself that. You might find the right answer soon. :p
and no, one winged angel, that's not right :p
Yeah I didn't think that one would be, I was kinda going out on a limb, but I'm just so worn down right now I can't think straight
Is the riddle referring to Yuffie's limit break Doom to the Living?
hrm...*imagines Yuffie jumping about around and around slashing all the enemies*
but there's no fire.
sorry :p
OH!!!!didnt she have a limit that was like draw?It gave her life and took it away from your enemy...First time I used it was when i was fighting those things in the tower...
:: looks it up :: no,apparently i am mistaken.It just gives you some life...
Could your riddle be reffering to both Yuffie and Aeris??
Around and around,
up and down,
back and forth,
over your heart. (This would be where Aeris's bit ends. The aroung up down stuff refers to escaping the church?If not the church, trying to find Aeris in the capital city place...)
Across a sharp edge, (the beams? or maybe masumane going through her)
bouncing and jumping,
jumping and jumping,
twirling and stopping,(yuffies actions when Aeris dies )
with a bright fire that gives you life (and takes it away). (( does this reffer to Healing Wind and Clear Tranquil?or maybe Sephiroth being the "fire" that gives the game life,and takes aeri's away))
yuffies reaction to aeris's death?
nope :p. and Yuffie's reaction when Aeris dies is (SPOILER) she goes to Cloud, sniffs, cries, and goes into Cloud's arms. then she walks away crying.
any more guesses, anyone? I'll reveal the answer on Friday or Saturday if no one gets it by then :p
oh i know thats her reaction...i thought the jumping accross the stones and...i believe she twirled.disk is on the fritz so i cant go back and see:P
can we have another hint?
Hmmm...I'm probably wrong, but maybe the Da-Chao mountains? @_@
ok ok fine :pQuote:

try applying this to real life. What kind of fire would give you life? and shorten your life? (yeah, i know ALL fires shorten your life if it's a serious burn, but i'm talking about a different one :p)
i am thinking alchol,and Reno was a heavy drinker...and he interacted with yuffie in the don chase thing...
then again,i am thinking love. no idea why.so im thinking the date with yuffie now...ermmm...
X.x
wrong, and wrong :p i'm talking about a REAL fire. the one that burns. the one that can do mortal damage to you.
Something about that fire in cosmo canyon?
The only useful fire i can think of in real life is the combustion engine and even still it doesn't give life :confused:
the only real fire i know that can give life is the sun. but i didn't play enough with yuffie to know a link between thse two
wrong, wrong, and wrong. :p
ok i'll reveal the riddle now.
Around and around, (Cloud swings his sword around)
up and down, (Barret thrusts his hand up, then brings it back down)
back and forth, (Tifa stretches with her hands)
over your heart. (Aeris puts her hand over her heart)
Across a sharp edge, (Red XIII scratches himself)
bouncing and jumping, (Yuffie jumps and twirls (This is what zacks_clone got right :D))
jumping and jumping, (Cait Sith's cat jumps up and down))
twirling and stopping, (Vincent twirls his gun and places it in its holster)
with a bright fire that gives you life (and takes it away). (Cid smokes :D)
so you see, it's their victory poses. Next person to post makes the next riddle.
i was close with alchohol...sorta...-.-;;
da-...dang,that was hard. Jezzsum. Very good riddle!To bad no one got it,you did a good job comming up with it!
You're good at this aren't you ForeverZeroUltima. :D
thanks, you two. :bgl:
people say that i come up with obscure riddles :DQuote:

A summers breeze

From these fearful nightmares
So come and find me
Here in the gloom
So you can take me from this place
From this dreadful room
And I can try and forget
These horrors that have came
The chaos that rages in my mind
The answers lie in the world somehwere
Hidden from all but my eyes
Hmm..going by the room and the chaos mention...possibly Vincent? (Never hurts to guess. XD)
My first ideas were also of Vincent, then I thought of Lucrecia, but she never leaves the room with you, so then I went back Vincent. So, my answer is Vincent.
Cold as ice
A summers breeze
Fills my soul with bitter memroys
If only I could cry
I'd drown in my tears
But that will not keep me
From these fearful nightmares (Tifa's memories)
So come and find me
Here in the gloom (in Cloud's mind {or wherever that place is in the LIfestream in Mideel})
So you can take me from this place (Tifa wants to be rescued from these memories)
From this dreadful room (Tifa's room in Cloud's past?)
And I can try and forget
These horrors that have came
The chaos that rages in my mind
The answers lie in the world somehwere (Nibelheim)
Hidden from all but my eyes (only Cloud and Tifa remember this)
yeah...my answer is gonna be Tifa's memories in Cloud's mind, when you fall into the lifestream in Mideel.
Hey PhoenixAsh hasn't guessed the riddle in one yet. Maybe he died...
Hehe, nah I'm alive, just thinking harder before guessing. The first two lines in this sound important to me but I can't seem to fit them with anything.

But that will not keep me
From these fearful nightmares (his mistakes)
So come and find me (he doesnt join your party,optional character)
Here in the gloom (basment)
So you can take me from this place (mansion)
From this dreadful room (basment room with dead things)
And I can try and forget (wanting to fix his mistakes)
These horrors that have came (exactly waht it says )
The chaos that rages in my mind (limit break,also his life problumes)
The answers lie in the world somehwere (going along with cloud he hopes to find Hojo)
Hidden from all but my eyes ( lucretia )
O_O You mean...I actually got one...right? On the first try?! X3 Yeees! *dances with joy* Yay! My inner Vincent fangirl prevails!
Oh, right, I do a riddle now, yes? ^_^ Okies, let's see now...its kind of obscure, but let's see if anyone can get it.
To keep you safe
I'd follow you to heaven
and forsake myself to the fiery pit along the way.
To keep me safe
you threw it all away.
My bonds were sealed with this act.
I'll follow you forever
from hades and back
'til the day your wings return.
Bugger! That's what I was thinking but I couldn't figure out how smoking gives you life or the across the sharp edge bit (I thought the twirling and stopping part was yuffie).Quote:

My bonds were sealed with this act. (Now Shera feels she has to stay with Cid)
I'll follow you forever
from hades and back (Pretty much till death do us part for better or worse)
'til the day your wings return. (Cid finally gets his dream)
So Cid and Shera's relationship.
*applauds* Got it in one PhoenixAsh. ^_^ Your turn.
Hehe thanks. Been a while since I had to do this, guess I need a new style again...
Cid was resting in peace,
Nanaki was praying over a bed,
Vincent was playing games,
Cait Sith was running through trees,
Aeris served the drinks,
Barret was jumping from tracks.
Where was Yuffie?
Yuffie was being held by Hojo.
Each of the above was where we first see the character BEFORE the named character.
Cid was resting in peace, (We first see Vincent in the coffin in Shinra Mansion)
Nanaki was praying over a bed, (We first see Aeris praying over the flower bed)
Vincent was playing games, (We first see Cait Sith playing fortune teller)
Cait Sith was running through trees, (We first see Yuffie in a battle in a forest...of course, depending on when you first see her, it might be after Gold Saucer...)
Aeris served the drinks, (We first see Tifa behind the bar in Sector 7...)
Barret was jumping from tracks. (We first see Cloud jumping from the train...but if you want to get technical, I believe Barret jumped out first. :) )
Where was Yuffie? (Yuffie was where we first saw Red XIII...which was in a holding cell in Hojo's lab.)
i still dont get the riddle X.x but intresting
First time for IlGreven (first post in this thread also?). I was going characters added so technically it works still :P.
Anyway nice one, your turn.
y'know...Quote:

I must say I did make that one deliberately hard, so IlGreven did a hell of a job getting it first go with a full explanation. Maybe I'll have to think of an even harder style :D.

I'm English, though I'm a bit worried IlGreven may take a while to check back...
OK...sorry about the wait...just needed to come up with one...
But I did. Sorry if it's too easy, but here we go:
When the skies are falling
We'll see thunder personified
And witness chaos with one arm
We'll observe a deadly terraformer
And ivory exsanguination
We'll feel the Planet's exhalation
And sail the martial seas
We'll create explosive modernism
As the waves of light are breaking.
When the skies are falling (meteor)
We'll see thunder personified (the thunder that goes around meteor)
And witness chaos with one arm (Dyne? Barret? Don't know where they fit in)
We'll observe a deadly terraformer (Uh I guess the rocket kind of shapes the landscape of meteor)
And ivory exsanguination (I'm doubting that in this case exsanguination is referring to blood so I would say that it is draining mako, lifeforce etc.)
We'll feel the Planet's exhalation (Bugenhagen's place?)
And sail the martial seas
We'll create explosive modernism
As the waves of light are breaking. (The life stream 'killing' meteor)
Oh I wasn't complaining about how long you took, I just had a feeling you weren't coming back for a few days.
At the minute I' can only think of either the Weapons or huge materia. But I can't quite fit either of those.
The fact that there are nine lines would make me think of another character per line clue, but I can't seem to find that either.
When the skies are falling
We'll see thunder personified
And witness chaos with one arm
We'll observe a deadly terraformer
And ivory exsanguination
We'll feel the Planet's exhalation
And sail the martial seas
We'll create explosive modernism
As the waves of light are breaking.
um....
i didn't understand ANY of that...
ivory exsanguination??? :confused:
When the skies are falling (Meteor)
We'll see thunder personified (This I would guess at Jenova/Seph/Meteor)
And witness chaos with one arm (One Winged Angel, Safer)
We'll observe a deadly terraformer (Supernova, or the lifestream/Holy/Meteor effects)
And ivory exsanguination (I'm guessing blood of the planet, and white from ivory, so Holy)
We'll feel the Planet's exhalation (Lifestream being released)
And sail the martial seas (Escaping on the Highwind maybe)
We'll create explosive modernism (Destruction of Midgar, or possibly the handle Cid pulls on the Highwind (if I remember right))
As the waves of light are breaking. (Lifestream/Holy/Meteor effects)
So I'd say the end of the game.
parts remind me of the shinra 26 going into space and crashing into metor in an attempt to stop it-.-;; then again,parts remind me of vincent...and the life stream...and zack,if only because of the lifestream...skys are falling...hm...(( yes,i did go through that riddle and fit everything to Zack.It works. Yes,its an obsession)). I'll have to agree with the answers already given.:P those seem to fit much better
Parts of it makes me think it's Vincent's limits ("witness chaos with one arm" = Vincent has one good arm and transforms into Chaos, "We'll see thunder personified" = Vincent's Livewire limit, "We'll observe a deadly terraformer" = Vincent always transforms into something else?), but I can't make all the lines fit.
