Riddle Time from Vince IX

Hey guys! I've been seeing some riddle threads being posted, so why not post mine? So here's the 9th issue of Riddle Time from Vince! We're all here for fun, so no prizes.

[header]Rules[/header]
- Please be SPECIFIC with your answer, non-specific answers will NOT count.
- All of the riddles are from GMS only. (Some from Basilmarket as well!)
- Do NOT post an answer that has a list of monsters/items/etc.

[header]Riddle 1[/header]
I control them all,
You cannot predict what I will do,
The only thing that stops me is that..
Nuisance of a power,
Defeat me and you find no reward,
Who am I?

Answer: Empress Cygnus by Fynel

[header]Riddle 2[/header]
I used to be popular,
but since those two updates, people barely go to me,
I remember those days,
I just sit here, always in this shell-like contraption,
Who am I?

Hint: It's not a boss of any kind, just a regular monster.
Hint 2: What was a really popular training spot Pre-BB, and it's not Himes.

Answer: Jr.Newties by purplesin

[header]Riddle 3 (One of my favorites)[/header]
I stand here,
Always doing this over and over,
After a while, my arms go numb.
Then I have to move to continue on,
Always killing the same monster,
While it stays stationary at its post,
I can't get too close, or I'll pay the price.
What am I doing?

Answer: Sniping Newts with TT, but have to move due to Botting System by knife4ward

[header]Riddle 4[/header]
Before, groups of people visited me..
Challenged me..
Now, they cannot, because I don't exist,
However, recently,
I had another chance at challenging Maplers,
I was looking for a certain...Knight.
Who am I?

Answer: Ergoth by cloak645

[header]Riddle 5[/header]
I have brothers, around the continents,
However, it might be awhile before you reach one of us,
We're never in town,
Talk to us, and we'll never fail you.
Who are we?

Answer: Scroll Sellers by BanditChaos

[header]Riddle 6[/header]
This has relatives in shops,
This was created through alchemy,
Once used, it created joy..
And despair..
Some use it for amusement,
and others, for items.
It was used occasionally in the past,
But now, it seems extinct.
What is it?

Hint: This is a USE Item.
Hint 2: It's not PROFESSION RELATED.

Answer: Black Sack by daru233

[header]Riddle 7[/header]
I'm needed for something powerful
I'm not complete, but in parts
You can find me in some shops,
I come from a place where only the powerful may be,
But now, I am useless.
What am I?

Answer: Piece of Time by eicho

[header]Riddle 8[/header]
You can find me in every town.
Wherever there's a special person, I'll be there.
I hold a lot of treasure
Give me enough of what I need,
and I'll give you something special.
Who am I?

Answer: Donation Box by BanditChaos

[header]Riddle 9[/header]
We only appear when a special event occurs.
We appear from the darkness..
We are evil in each way.
After we leave, you will collect your prize.
Who are we?

Answer: Black Mage Henchmen by BanditChaos

[header]Riddle 10[/header]
I watch this place.
I have two forms.
I can glare,
Or scare.
I'm forever bound to this place.
I only surprise the unexpected.
Who am I?

@eicho I make most of them up on the spots by looking at something that's in GMS, then making a riddle out of it. Also, I save some old riddles so that new people can answer it, that's why people were confused with Riddle 8. Sorry about the mishap guys.

@BanditChaos Yes, Piece of Time were used to make Timeless equips through the Maker skill, but since they removed the Maker skill, they're useless.

[quote=Yanoma]@daru233 Yes, it is indeed the Black Sack. Before, used to kill lower-leveled people by summoning J.Balrog and then killing it, hoping for items. People who summoned it, usually had a good laugh out of it, and the prey usually were sad/mad that they died. Riddle 7 is coming up![/quote]

Right when I thought of that, I scrolled down and saw this. /facepalm
