Pre-Halloween Quest

Post by Helmut »

Rules:
This quest begins today and is just one of possibly few quests we will be hosting
leading up to Hallowe'en! Please read these rules and information
very carefully, as it is sort of detailed.

#1 - This is an INDEPENENT quest. This means no discussing your answers with others.
If you are found to be cheating in any way, or aiding somebody
cheat, you will be disqualified and punished. If you have any questions or
information to report, please see Mirage.

#2 - Each riddle will have an answer (duh!). You must answer each riddle or as many
as possible.
Example:

Riddle: I'm rubber and you bounce me, what am I?
Answer: A ball

Riddle: I'm blue, green or brown, can you see me? What am I?
Answer: an eye

A child's ball carried by A questing beast.
An eyeball in The scrying chamber.

These paired items can be turned in for a quest token. The value is determined upon
the difficulty of the item, how many items you are combining,
and the difficulty of the riddle. There are a few items that can be turned in by
themselves, some items that can be matched with more than just one item,
some items that come in pairs of two, and even some in threes (worth the most quest
points).

So another example could be:
blanket, bed, pillow or
bed, nest, burrow (bed is used twice:) )

#3 - If a riddle answer is 'shirt', obviously many shirts will appear on locate. You
choose the one that seems most appropriate.
If the riddle answer is 'bark':
A bark shield carried by A Goblin Guard.
A bark beetle in The Dark Witching Forest.

I will accept the shield, because it is made of bark. The beetle is irrelevant. Take
this into consideration.

#4 - What's great about this quest is that it does not take braun to complete, but
brain. But if you do need someone bigger
to help you kill a mob, keep it discreet that it is an item for this particular
quest. Remember, cheaters will be fed to Enkil (or worse!).

#5 - You may turn the items in with me whenever you have completed the quest. If
your answer is wrong, it's wrong. You get once chance,
so think hard and long before you present your answers/combos/items with me. This
quest will close in three weeks, to give all players
a chance to have fun. The final day to turn in is Thursday, October 28th mud time
where we will move into implementing a more specific
halloween quest over the weekend.

#6 - Have fun! If you have any questions or feel something needs to be clarified,
please post here so that others may learn too.

Enjoy,
Mirage

On one leg is how you find me standing, my heart lays inside my head. What am I?

Take, take, take away from me so you find, the larger I become. What am I?

We are two brothers. On opposide sides of a road we live..and yet, see each other we
never do. Who are we?

First I am red, and once I go in water I turn black! What am I?

The more of me you have, the less you see! What am I?

I grow when I eat, but die when I drink. What am I?

I have legs. I have feet. But nothing else! What am I?

Breathing and dancing, I can even be deceiving. Though I thrive, I am not alive. And
of course my dear, don't come too near! What am I?

A guardian amongst flowers, I have an amazingly unique sword. I use it only if I
must, to defend my golden hoard. Who am I?

Freezing like death, forever breathing. Not thirsty, forever drinking. Wearing mail,
but not clinking. What am I?

Colored with no dye, flammable in death, swaying with out music, breathing with no
breath. What am I?

By every miss I’m valued much, beloved and highly prized
Still my cruel fate is such, by boys I am often despised
What am I?

I fly with no wings, and strike with no break. I have no eyes but a target is what I
seek.
What am I?

Yes I can speak, even with a hard metal tongue,
however I cannot breathe, because I have no lung! What am I?

I can't be bought, and certainly can't be sold.
Even if I were to be made of gold. What am I?

I can turn without moving. What am I?

With an iron roof and four glass walls,
inside I burn and burn, and yet I never fall. What am I?

I used to have eyes, but now I cannot see. I used to have thoughts, but now I am
empty. What am I?


I'm among the strangest creatures you will find, two eyes up front, more behind.
A piece of me you will require, to get this gift you deeply desire.

Walk on us living, we will not muble,
Walk on us dead, we mutter and grumble.
What are we?

The root tops the trunk
On this backward thing,
that grows in winter
and dies in spring.
What am I?

Turn my head I create a portal. Turned again, I create a wall. What am I?

You turn the quest into Mirage. The riddler is just there so you dont have to keep looking them up. Well, temporary, he might be removed soon.
