These were talented players who had all taken on the mantle of Dungeon Master at one point or another so each riddle dealt with a lesser-known monster in the 3.5 Monster Manual.
Can you figure them out without reaching for the book?
Straight as an arrow I fly
With wings gone every way
The storm is coming tonight
The sky is where I stay
Some say my looks are frightening
The last they hear, is lightning
What am I?
One place as home and world
One thing to guard and be
Nice gentlemen always seem
To come and help poor me
Keep the flicker away
Or face you me this day
What am I?
Keep your gold
And use it better
On tracings bold
And brushstroke letters
Keep your axe
From trees and vine
That look as like
The home of mine
I sing my song of earth and tree
Can you guess what I may be?
From the depths I rise
To feed with great surprise
A single touch from me
You'll stand still as a tree
I'll collect your skulls in pairs
To keep on mantles in my lair
What am I?
Yellow, white, green or blue
I will come in the night for you
Follow, follow me my sweet
Or feel the sting soon of my heat
What am I?
With my touch, you’re filled with light
Stay thee back or I will fight
They felt dumb when off I flew
And let them be kicked by their shoes
What am I?
From above I kill alone
Not rock or ash or lime of stone
Hold your breath, or lose it fast
As in the dark your life will pass
What am I?
No one knows where I will show
In lands of desert or of snow
Run, Fight, Talk or Trade
Into Crowds I quickly fade
When your mirror comes to live
Keeping track will headaches give
Dragons, Giants, Puppys too
What oh what will you ever do
What am I?
They say my cousins are something foul
But trees will shake with my great howl
When the snow descends on you
From leaves or brush I need to chew
You look tasty
Now your pasty
What am I?
Keep your word. Keep your law
Unless you live to die
I will search for each last flaw
And bring your deathly cry
Study those who cheat and break
Before your hit the floor
Draining life, to fuel my own
On the tip of my sword
What am I?
