shut the fuck up charles

1. We scour the world, murdering any who oppose us by the hundreds, even thousands.
2. We seek only money, drugs, and women.
3. We can die in dozens of gruesome, torturous ways.
4. We use performance enhancing drugs as often as we can.
5. The reward for our victory is sexually charged.

WHO ARE WE???

I LIVE UNRELENTINGLY UP MY OWN ASS


1. We are four wide or four tall, but never both.
2. We are key to victory, but poor timing will contribute to the opposite.

Who are we?

Ain't no Steeler like an ex-Steeler.

1. I'm pretty sure I'm the best son-in-law ever.
2. I could always tell by the twinkle in their eyes when strangers were trying to kill me.
3. If I needed to get somewhere, I could always look at my map.
4. I found an old lamp, but no genie inside. Very disappointing.
5. I faced off against Queens, a horrible beast, a maze filled with traps and bottomless pits, being sacrificed alive, and even Death itself, and still emerged triumphant.

Always moving towards a goal, I'm pushed and pulled through twists and turns in the right direction. Though joined by friends to fight my foes, I shall always remain blue.

The words I choose can shape my world, but swearing is forbidden. Elder gods come at my call, atop them I have stridden.


Maxwell - Scribblenauts

Chasing something older than man, my mortality becomes apparent. The unending tide halted by his hand, together we have risen. My time draws close as my mind starts to unravel, but one last act of true devotion will save him from the void.

1. My words are often more powerful than my blade.
2. I have climbed to the peak of the lands.
3. My familiars are sworn to carry my burdens.
4. I collect an old scroll.
5. I ride a dragon and save the world.

What a bargain!

My existence spans through many lifetimes, donning different masks, colors, and homelands, yet my name etched the same in time. I familiarize myself with the elements, traveling far and wide over land, sea, to the tallest mountains and into the sky above, in search of my burden that shall forever remain asunder.

Link - Legend of Zelda Series

My life a constant torment, I am forever haunted by the memories of fallen comrades. I soldier on through this hellish labyrinth, sustenance my only salvation.

I always reach for the stars, but everyone says I suck.

With mechanically inclined heirs
Her kingdom lost to bonnie knave

The gooniest goon of all. Goon. p.s. LOL Goon.

Witness my mastery of the clock,
For in the beginning, all that is heard is a tock,

One future of many, I pave with violence,
But through all of this, I suffer in silence,

Woe to the centre of earth that despises me,
For soon, I will relive to undo this quandary.

Why do we have to give the answer?

You watch me move all on my own...
If you don't act I go away
And if you do not what you're told
A premium you're forced to pay
So step up faster, call me master
Pay in for the chance to sway
Heed my rule, look like a fool
It seems that you're the one I play


If there is some unknown rule about riddle threads that says I should put the answer in without giving people a chance to guess, then I apologize. For now I'll treat this like the guess the movie still thread. If someone guesses it right I'll confirm.

Through mines and hell, always new yet the same,
Endlessly leaving my stash and name,

Gods and ghosts are my only assurance,
While I dive deeply only to resurface,

By wand or dagger I carve fear to the floor,
To retrieve holy jewelry of ancient splendor.

Should I misstep in my quest,
I've surely taken my last breath,


It helps to slice pudding in two,
Or I may have to begin anew.

This will be such an easy riddle cause I suck at making such things.

1. We don't use any sort of weapon except animals despite us being criminals.
2. We get thwarted by 10 year old kids.
3. We have murdered an animal's mother and let the animal wear the skull for all eternity.

This eternal battle rages on within the darkest void.
I have no motive but to see my enemy destroyed.

His tactics are simple; always attack from the left.
I reply in kind and parry. A single move, ever so deft.

What is the reason behind this battle between twins?
I can't stop and think, lest he shoots past me and wins.

Woke today and the air was cold,

I took off through the round door,
had a splash, saw the castes four.

Guess I better find all my things,
marching in step to russian strings.

Wanted to take a little dip by the mere,
looked up and saw the sign, no swimming here.

But I ain't no quitter, gonna pass this test,

Though only a child
Many a mask I wear

Jump and stomp enemies into the ground
Or use my katana and cut them down

Wary of the bald head and green eyes
out of health or time I hear the word "DIE!"

A tower, seven floors, and a guardian on each
A strange voice that assists me to the goal that I must reach.
While danger lurks 'round every turn, I feel no fear at all,
For music is my weapon, always at my beck and call.
I match the gems, I cast the spells, my foes are laid to rest,
Eugenics was their master plan!? This game is not the best.

Let's try another (hopefully more difficult):

I'm well known in the town from where I hail
I have a talking cat as a friend, but not with two tails

In a dark cave I was made to roam
On a quest to kill a monster I was turned to stone

Guns or axe I can take my pick
I have a total of 4 members in my clique
