Moredred came early and raring to go he awoke everyone to the sight of three large cups each one designed to look like a different creature of darkness
the one on the left looked like a Orc, the one in the middle looked like a Goblin and the one on the right looked like a Ghost
"well, Good day everyone, I see you rested well as to be expected with a new tainted toy among you hehehe...anyway I have things to do so ta-ta for now"
and with that Moredred flew off towards the Horizon doing a few loopy-loops before disappearing out of sight completely.
Riddle 4: Wraiths, Goblins and Orcs, each is a creature with grim disgusting features, but whose business it is to share fear from deep in their heart though pranks and tricks, which one seeks to pillage and raid though only while in large numbers, whose Loyalty is in question most of the time but at the call of a master are ready to bring much disaster.
Pm me the risk & reward package you want either small or big details are in sign-ups risk & reward current bid status: HighNB: inactivity angers Moredred cause he gets bored so he will kill a heart every inactive game. activity counts as posting in game with an attempt at the riddle. it can be a bad attempt. |

"Wraiths definitely are there to give fear. And Orcs generally are hell-bent on just causing carnage, but goblins... They generally differ based on the medium. They fit the third part most well out of the three. Either them or Orcs."
"I think that since Loyalty is capitalized, that one is the one we must focus on. So, I'm going for goblins."
EDIT: "No, wait, I get it."
"Goblins do deal in pranks and tricks, mainly causing machines to explode. They do tend to raid, and in numbers and under lead of others, they can cause hell... But they can't in any other situation."
"Still going for goblins."

Day four... so this must be a riddle of lie.
I checked for the difference between goblins and orcs, and so my answer will be mostly based off of what was defined J.R.R. Tolkien's series.
One difference resulted from my rather short research, is that orcs, in general, are of greater strength and physique compared to goblins. Goblins were stated to be a more miniscule breed in terms of stature and live mostly underground, so technically, the "correct" answer would be the goblin cup for the creatures since they would be less likely to actually involve themselves in battle.
But... wraiths in that way if they are similar in aspects to ghost, then the ghost would be more likely to play pranks and the likes. As for loyalty, perhaps it has a double meaning, but ghosts are generally depicted as those of different sides, usually those of evil, but no doubt, has there been the publication of "good" spirits also.
The only one it can't be in here... is an orc, but the riddle this time is presented as false, so therefore... the possible solutions of goblin or wraith are false... or at least one of them is.

"I can see how it might be wraiths. However, consider this. How often do wraiths work together with anything? No, they generally work alone or in small groups, and effectively at that, from what I understand."
"This riddle involves a creature that works exclusively in numbers for effectiveness. Allow me to break my knowledge and pull from the game 'Magic: The Gathering.' There are Goblin Creatures in there, and usually they only have one in both power and toughness. Easy to kill, and they don't do much damage."
"However, let's take a look at Krenko, Mob Boss. His ability allows you to double the amount of Goblins you control. That's right. Double."
"Goblins can quickly gather numbers and effectiveness under a leader, and are only effective in numbers, which fit the riddles. Wraiths generally don't work in as large groups, and orcs can cause damage themselves and have little problem with Loyalty, especially by Tolkien terms. That's why I'm almost sure that goblins are the correct answer here."

Yes, I know, Riku, I addressed goblin as the first choice and wraith as the second best. Now, more importantly, do you recall that the riddles are purposed to be in patterns; meaning that if the last was a lie, than this one would certainly be true. The thing is... that last round, the riddle was indeed true based on the results of previous riddles meaning, nonetheless, that the correct answer... is not the "correct" answer. Right now, you are only solving for three fourths of this, as you are giving the "correct" answer.
Back to the switching of truth and false; this riddle, based on the prior results compared to their own given problems shows that this one should be FALSE. Therefore, the ball should not be under goblin if going by the theory that it is the "correct" answer. The answer we seek to find the ball cannot be the "correct" one, since this riddle serves as a lie. Leaving us with only a fifty-fifty chance of what the golden sphere can be located under. I simply chose orc since it was the least likely to be true.

"Okay, okay, yeah, I get it. The second day's riddle was definitely made to throw us off, as the ball was probably originally in the smiling cup."
"That definitely excludes goblins, which leaves us down to wraiths and orcs. However, I think wraiths are the most likely to work alone, as I've already mentioned. So, I'll vote for the wraith."
