Kim Site Admin

This is the official thread for Epic Week 2016 adventurers to discuss the waking the slumbering guardians of Forum Forest.



Each guardian has 10 seals carved into its bark. The correct word or phrase must be spoken to a seal to activate it. Activate all 10 to wake a forest guardian. Unfortunately, the guardians are hidden deep in the forest, and the path to them is dangerous -- maybe coordinate with the warriors thread to get safe passage?

For every seal, a creature with knowledge of its riddle is hidden somewhere on the site. Find these riddle masters to get clues toward the correct word of power for each seal.

For your adventuring convenience, here is the link to forest where the guardians slumber: http://www.rprepository.com/events/epicweek2016/forest.php

This is a group game! It is designed to be played as a community. There are no rules against discussing the locations of the riddle keepers, sharing their clues, or debating what those clues mean amongst yourselves. You earn points as a group, not as individuals, for unlocking a seal, so there is no reason to keep information to yourself. If you are lucky and clever enough to find the answer and unlock a seal, feel free to tell the group what the answer was. Unite and conquer!

One of the riddle masters has a birthday coming up.
Dragonfire Moderator

Heeey, a clue!

"One of the riddle masters is very keen on getting more well-suited adventurers to join him."
Well-suited? Like a knight? Isn't there a knight in the Looking For RP section...
No, wait, that's a spartan. Don't mind me I'm a sucker for puns.
Dragonfire Moderator

Hrrm. Yeah, dunno if the spartan necessarily fits. Maybe it's more to do with costumes? Halloween eventing?

I tripped over a friendly robot with another clue, too. "I know of a riddle master that pays a great deal of attention to the newest of the new..."

Sanne and Loki immediately come to mind for me.
Yes, you do that Kim~

'Well-suited adventurers to join him', right? Maybe somewhere around the Looking For Forum or the Fantasy Roleplay Forum?
Kim Topic Starter Site Admin

Mind the gap, friends. The 1am backup is almost upon us. During it, the site will be slow or sometimes inaccessible for about 5 minutes.
"I know of a riddle master that pays a great deal of attention to the newest of the new..."

I've been scouring site News and Updates, new characters too, maybe something to do with new players or templates or... thanks for the reminder Kim.

someone say spartan?
I guess someone who has posted on most or all recent news posts, maybe? I know Bonebag has commented on a few, I think I've seen Copper a few times too.

Hey, Kim, question here, if people are riddle masters or whatever (They can be, right?), do they know themselves?
Ilmarinen Moderator

I found the bowtie guardian clicking on all the members who have birthdays today! You can see them on the community page.

In the intergalactic meeting hall, you meet a representative of the Lobsterite empire. Apparently, they're gravely concerned about the situation in Forum Forest as well.

The Lobsterite's first clue is: Early engineering experiment destroyed a planet

Lobsterite's 2nd clue: Later became an agent for Government agency on Gallifrey. (Unlocked by SINdragon)

The Lobsterite's third clue is: Has yet to appear in the televised series (Unlocked by Dragonfire)
Kim Topic Starter Site Admin

@SINDragon - All of the riddle masters are NPCs. No users are riddle masters.
Whoops I'm late!
FOUND THE BOWTIE GUARDIAN. Under Community, it shows the lobster dude has a birthday coming up! Clicking on his name brought him up:

"In the intergalactic meeting hall, you meet a representative of the Lobsterite empire. Apparently, they're gravely concerned about the situation in Forum Forest as well.

The Lobsterite's first clue is: Early engineering experiment destroyed a planet

The second clue can only be revealed to someone who has never played the Doubutt game.

The third clue can only be revealed to someone who has at least 10 characters, but less than 20 characters."
Dragonfire Moderator

Between 10 and 20 character, eh? I think I fit!

"The Lobsterite's third clue is: Has yet to appear in the televised series"

Hmmm. Bowties. Bowties are cool. Something to do with Dr. Who, I think!
Found the Compass Seal guardian by clicking on Did you Know!
guardian-familiar.png
"The Familiar pads up to you and winds around your legs. "I can help you with the secrets of the compass seal..."

The Familiar's first clue is: In search of perfection

The second clue can only be revealed to someone who joined after December 31 2015 and is younger than 16.

The third clue can only be revealed to someone who is a member of 7 groups, but a founder of none."
