I Am the Queen - Guest Riddle from Deimos Tel`Arin

del.icio.us Reddit Digg StumbleUpon

Greetings, friends! Today is a special day, we’re hosting the first ever guest riddle here. Our riddler is Deimos Tel`Arin, who’s decided to take things a little bit further, by organizing a contest (applicable only for entrecarders) to reward those who crack the riddle. Also, he’s looking for sponsors, who will be rewarded as well. The rules are on his domain. The official answer to the riddle will be published on April 1st 2008, together with the contest winners.

As usual, you can post your guesses for the answer to the riddle in the comments below. But for contest-related businesses, please post a comment on Deimos’s domain and he will clear things out.

And now, without further ado, the riddle:

I do not exist, yet many have known me for almost a decade.
About the past, I was once good. Very evil, totally brutal I am now.
Mentioned within the Demon’s domain, I was.
Sharp and pointy objects, my title rhymes with.
An actor as a protagonist in a popular TV series shares my name.
Revered for vanquishing beings that are dead yet not quite dead, she is.
Also, her physical beauty quite matches with my own.
Hell be damned, now tell me - Who am I?

Note: Official riddle answer: The Queen Shows Her Face

@Geek Riddler:
Thanks for allowing me to guest riddle on your domain. :)

@A.:
A good guess, but Spike is not the Queen. Keep trying! ;)

#4 C-Squared on 03.04.08 at 11:41 pm

Medea?

#5 The Realtor on 03.05.08 at 12:09 am

Google.

#6 Deimos Tel`Arin on 03.05.08 at 1:13 am

@C-Squared:
A good attempt, though Medea is not the Queen that we are talking about. ;)

Thanks to you, now I know a bit more about Greek Mythology!

@Cecilia:
Google is the King, not the Queen LOL :mrgreen:

@Everyone:
Keep trying! It is not that hard, is it? :p

#7 phirate on 03.05.08 at 1:20 am

Buffy, of course :)

#8 phirate on 03.05.08 at 1:23 am

Wait. No, that was stupid :) Faith?

#9 Wan Kong Yew on 03.05.08 at 2:26 am

Sarah Kerrigan, Queen of Blades of course.

Sorry man, it was too easy. ;)

#10 kexbrown on 03.05.08 at 2:55 am

Sounds like Yoda to me. :)

#11 Louie on 03.05.08 at 3:10 am

Sarah Silverman LOL

#12 BaseGuardian on 03.05.08 at 6:08 am

Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street

#13 Lis on 03.05.08 at 7:28 am

Eh, I think WKY above has got it.

#14 Teh Theng Heng on 03.05.08 at 8:03 am

Is it Lilith?

#15 roel on 03.05.08 at 8:30 am

Damn… LOL. Its Sarah Kerrigan I’m sure! But WKY got it first. Sigh - She looks better with Zerg. Arghh.

#16 Deimos Tel`Arin on 03.05.08 at 9:03 am

@phirate:
Definitely not Buffy or Faith.
I see that you managed to decipher something. 8)

@Wan Kong Yew:
Oh really? So, why do you say it is her? :)

@kexbrown:
Since when Yoda is a Queen? O_O

@Louie:
She’s pretty but she exists. -_-
Looks like you noticed something too. ;)

@BaseGuardian:
Sweeney Todd is a guy. -_- ;;;

Lis:
What makes you think so? :p

@Teh Theng Heng:
A good guess, now I know a bit more about this character - Lilith.
I don’t think she is good to begin with though.

@roel:
You appeared confident that Wan Kong Yew got it right, what makes you so sure? :D

#17 BaseGuardian on 03.05.08 at 9:16 am

@Deimos- I know, just making some noise here ^_^

#18 Deimos Tel`Arin on 03.05.08 at 9:33 am

@BaseGuardian:
Aduh! Should at least attempt a good guess what. -_-
So do you have anything further guess attempts? 8)

@Deimos,I think Johnny Depp looks like girl ma… okay la I really try this time, she is Kitana, from Mortal Kombat, okay or not?

#21 Deimos Tel`Arin on 03.05.08 at 11:59 am

@BaseGuardian:
Now that you mentioned it, he does appears quite girlish. O_O

Kitana?
Nay, she is not Kitana.
This guess is better than your previous one. :p

#22 Navin on 03.05.08 at 3:53 pm

it looks like some game character this riddle is talking about..
I wish it were
BLADE!!
no idea dude.. :)

#23 Deimos Tel`Arin on 03.05.08 at 4:07 pm

@Navin:
Blade is a guy. -_-
Your hit something, but still far off from the bulls eye. ;)

#24 alirom on 03.05.08 at 10:42 pm

It is the shadow! MUST be the shadow!

#25 Deimos Tel`Arin on 03.05.08 at 11:12 pm

@alirom:
What shadow? -_-
No, it is not the shadow. :)
And no, definitely not a female shadow either. ;)

#26 rick on 03.05.08 at 11:36 pm

How about “alice” from resident evil?

#27 Deimos Tel`Arin on 03.05.08 at 11:49 pm

@rick:
Nice one, but I don’t think she ever turned evil, did she? 8)

#28 Wan Kong Yew on 03.06.08 at 2:17 am

Whoa, just noticed that the contest ends 1st April. Isn’t GeekRiddles going to put up regular riddles of his own before then?

#29 Deimos Tel`Arin on 03.06.08 at 2:49 am

@Wan Kong Yew:
LOL I don’t think he is going to slack for that long. :p
I believe that new riddles will roll in while this one is still ongoing. 8)
So, when can I expect your guest riddle to be ready? ;)
We’re gonna host another Contest-Riddle by then. :D

#30 Ella on 03.06.08 at 8:28 am

is it buffy

#31 Admin on 03.06.08 at 8:40 am

Hey folks!

I’ll of course resume regular riddle posting soon. There will be more guest riddles from time to time, since this one was such a success. Some will probably have contests, some will not. I’ll also organize contests for the regular riddles every now and then. Can’t wait :)

Cheers!

#32 roel on 03.06.08 at 10:19 am

Hey Master Deimos, I know WKY got it right, and sadly, first… You want me to show you proof how I am so confident about it? Hehehe. Perhaps you can share me some of those entrecredits if I can show you why. LOL. You basically given it out, very nice. It’s all in your riddle… Btw, great riddle, great choice of words,. :-)

#33 Deimos Tel`Arin on 03.06.08 at 10:21 am

@Ella:
A good shot at the riddle but Buffy is not the Queen. 8)

@Geek Riddler:
Let me know if you need help with getting sponsors for your upcoming contests, aye?

Cheers!

#34 roel on 03.06.08 at 10:49 am

Now the spoilers…

I am Sarah.

LOL. Hehehe.

#35 Deimos Tel`Arin on 03.06.08 at 11:15 am

@roel:
Ah, your comment was 2 minutes earlier than mine so I did not see it earlier. ;)

Regarding EntreCredits, those who got it right will have a share of it.

Thanks for the riddle-compliment. Appreciate that. :D

Yeah, I knew it was way too easy. At least for us who think alike.

Hah! So that was too obvious, aye? So tell me, what else did you found out?

#36 roel on 03.06.08 at 1:11 pm

She’s Zerg’s B*tc*. :-) Maybe Zerg was right infesting her as she becomes more ‘alluring’ in her ‘bestial’ form. Of course she doesnt exist - but sooo real in SC world. She appeared in SC1 probably about 10 years ago, then again in SC2. Hmmm. No doubt about this Queen of Blades. :-) Loved playing with her. :-)

#37 Deimos Tel`Arin on 03.06.08 at 8:11 pm

@roel:
Yeah, definitely look forward to meet her again in SC2. :D
