    Default Day 5 Challenge

    ITEM

    Golden Apple (per person)

    TASK
    Today there will be a public Thunderdome opening, for you to practice in over the weekend to level up your character! You have Fri-Sun to practice against opponents - the winner of each round will level up and gain an additional 20HP and 30 points to move around their stats however they'd like!

    On Monday the very first ELIMINATION THUNDERDOME will happen, so it's crucial to start discussing now which member you are going to send it for that first fight! Each person who goes for a public Thunderdome will obtain a Golden Apple for their teams inventory only on the first battle they do!

    ITEM
    Hi-Potion x 2

    TASK
    At least one member from each team must start a legitimate discussion thread in the Final Fantasy V Forum

    ITEM
    Highwind Key

    TASK
    Be the first to solve my riddle. Where it will appear and when... who knows. Only one team will win the stone!


    GOOD LUCK
    Well well, looks like things are getting serious.

    Hello, it's me.
    I am the one who has it.
    This is level one.


    Jump to me old friend
    Hunt with me again old friend
    But this is a decoy too


    She is my namesake
    I am just a stranger
    Behind a mask, behind screens
    The Key to the Highwind lies with me.


    That's the clue! Thoughts?

    The Highwind indicates FFVII.

    All the masks and charades, I don't know, Cait Sith?

    EDIT: Also, the highwind has an image of Shera (Cid's wife) emblazoned on it. Could it have something to do with her?

    OH OH OH

    Is it Ultimecia? Either that or it is literally Night Fury.

    What? So it isn't Ultimecia, and it isn't Night Fury.

    The second paragraph has me utterly stumped TBH. It'd have "fit in" if the third line simply implied to ignore the paragraph altogether, but that's a daring interpretation to make.

    It's too bad, the third paragraph would've PERFECTLY fit in with an actual forum user (hiding behind the mask of a "character" and really being a stranger) but if it's not Night Fury I don't think it's anyone else, is it?

    Furthermore, it clearly specifies a gender, 'she'. This is why I was certain it was Night Fury or Ultimecia, but that was shot down. I feel like we're close, especially after Fury gave us a clue, but we're missing something...

    This hint makes me almost certain that this is a "meta" riddle of sorts. But if it's not Night Fury/Tara then *who would be the one holding the answer to this very riddle*?

    Edit: I also noticed the task description still says "Only one team will win the stone!" but I'm inclined to believe that's an error...

    It isn't going to be something stupid and be ourselves, is it?

    It can't be it, it specifies a gender.

    At first I also thought it could be talking about Ultimecia and the sorceresses she possesses, but even then Ultimecia should be the answer and you did guess that...

    I'm fresh out of ideas already.

    You and me both. Hopefully the others in our group can inject some freshness.
