The villans wear opera cloaks, the drow are all drizzt clones....you get the picture. Now of course, I'll be needing a riddle or two for this to work. Of course I could plan to do the stereotype thing and rip one out of baldur's gate two, or I could have a stab at making a nicely original one. How tough is this one? The party will find it next to the door to the bond style supervillan's treasury, alonside a big combination lock like numbered wheel that goes up to twenty. Fingers by feet Sins by hands Ears without eyes Heels over head Head under heels
Vharuck 05-04-05, 01:32 AM	20, 14, 0?, 2, 1/2? Hehe, can't be right. But I also noticed (with a ping of sadness and pain in my heart) that Drizzt is the stereotypical drow. I know it's true, but do my heart a service and just don't mention it. I like to entertain my delusions of the stereotypical drow being a sinister, plotting, evil being.
mcnoo 05-04-05, 01:53 AM	Very close, but head under heels is the same as heels over head. I know what you mean about the drizzt thing hurting so badly. My group doesn't stand for that sort of nonsense, which is why me using it should proove a good laugh. Arguably the most popular character of mine among my lot is my drow rogue/sorcerer, on the surface, scum, but deep down he's quite caring and considerate in certain ways and a genuinely nice guy once you get to know him, but under that layer, he's scum right to the core. Yes, once in a while he'll donate all the cash from his last bank job to that orphanage on the wrong side of town, and yes, he does genuinely enjoy the company of children and wants the best for them all. While he's at it however, he's also raising a streetwise army of thugs with nothing to lose that see him as the closest thing to a loving father they've ever had. This guy's alignment ticks back and forth from chaotic neutral to neutral evil like a metronome. Don't get me started on the finer points of all his current plans in progress, plans in theory and the finer points of his psychology.

Fingers by feet (this could be two things) = 10x2 or 8x2 (thumb counts?) = 20 or 16 Sins by hands (The deadly ones?) = 7x2 = 14 Ears without eyes = 2-2 = 0 Heels over head = 2/1 = 2 Head under heels = 2/1 = 2 Now, to add... 20+14+0+2+2 = 38 or 16+14+0+2+2 = 34 of course, they could just fill in the numbers as they go on this wheel, like a combination lock. 20 to 14 to 0 to 2 to 2. Or 16 to 14 to 0 to 2 to 2. Do I win?
Big Tom 05-04-05, 03:46 AM	16, 14, 2, ?, ?. And the logic behind the answer: 8 fingers times two feet=16, 7 sins times 2 hands=14, 2 ears regardless of if a head has eyes or not=2, and its 4 in the morning an I need to write this paper for class so I cant be bothered to actually finish this riddle because I'm procrastinationg too well=?, ?.
