Thingfish's Riddle

[Mitch]

Is it that guy....... David Hasselhoff in disguise?

[friscodude]

Well darn then...so time for another theorization. Seeing how not many have posted on the last line of the second verse, "Affinity only one may mimic", and assuming it stands alone from the rest of the verse, could it imply the Answer is a unique species or something of that sorts?

[Thingfish]

Not sure if you got to read the previous riddles thread, Frisco, but it was established that the 'affinity' also refers to the answer beginning a 'paragon of a mute usurper', i.e. the affinity between the two.

We have come to the conclusion that the answer is a person, although I believe that Thingfish said he'd class the Mages etc as a person.

The character we are looking for is very special as far as Thingfish has said. But if I were to analyse that sentence, I'd assume that it could be in relation to the heir. The heir for all we know could be a diary, statue etc, but they'd have something in common with the Answer. Whether it's a bond of kinship, or just a general similarity between the two. Although I'd lean more towards the similarity side of it, I'd not put it past Thingfish to look at more than one meaning for it.

Anyhoo, I have to finish packing. So I'll do some more on this later <3

Hehe, nope didnt sort through that 40 page madness, or at least remember all of it :rolleyes2 Well Ill keep lookin in-game I guess

[Thingfish]

Mwahaha!

[Lenna]

TF if you do that the next time we meet up I seriously will buy you a drink for it! (you have to do it in public ;D)

[Thingfish]

No problem I'd be happy to

I'll even call you a hottie!

[Lenna]

You do that and you wont live to see the end of the day

[Thingfish]

Hehe. You say you don't like it but it's obviously that you secretly do I doubt I've anything to fear even if I do say it. You are a good deal smaller than I am

[friscodude]

Well, if you don't mind me saying so, I just finished disk one about 3 minutes ago and throughout the whole of that disk, after talking to most NPC's (I think I missed some in Alexandria), I couldnt find any that could possibly be the Answer, IMO. With my luck I've already missed my chance and the rest of my efforts will be in vain .

EDIT: Stumbled upon a name given once and only once- the owner of the synth shop in Treno, named Bishop- unfortunately he only has one name but one of the customers in his shop reveals his name, but when talked to again doesnt repeat it. The Bishop character also rents out the tower to Dr. Tot, the "astrologist", so that seemed to fit but I feel that this is a wrong Answer

[Thingfish]

Carry on searching, Frisco

Astrology is not the same as astronomy

[friscodude]

Hehe, whoopsy my bad but yes I will never give up my quest!

[brother's bigger brother]

you should give money to who ever gets it

[Thingfish]

Or I get money when I'm forced to reveal it when everyone has given up...
