  Hey Rogue, you have some kind of Stormcloak fetish?

  I would not be surprised if this was Rogue in real life

  At least we aren't spreading Wales propaganda though, eh? Now we're just being used to recruit for the Stormcloaks... Oh my god. Rogue lulled us into a false sense of security, using the most revolting images imaginable (ie anything to do with Wales) to make us desperate for anything else, then making us into poster children of the rebellion. Genius. Despicable, but genius.

   

  How did you get my picture??????

  Also, how did you get my journal? Specifically the thirty-fourth chapter on manipulative shock and awe?

  I knew it! And that warpaint is fabulous :P

  And 'manipulative shock and awe' would be an awesome name for a metal album or something.

  Daedra and Aedra seem to be pretty popular for every riddle I've given. Vivec makes sense, but not what I'm looking for. Isn't the Stormcloak embracement better than a Welsh profile picture?

  That's because theyr'e weird :D Love that new avatar btw.

  Like Robin Hood I get another shot, right? If so, gonna go with Lorkhan no Alduin.

  I will ahead and take a shot, though it will be wrong. Is it the Civil War in Skyrim?

  Also, bring on the Braveheart pic. :)

  The great plan has fallen.

  Congrats, Nameless! First one to correctly guess a riddle. Chose whatever profile picture you'd like.

  Wait, you are serious, my first guess and the one I broke down was right? That is pure luck and for the pic:

  

  Not personal, just revenge for the others. :) Also, I will have my riddle up in a day.

  Good job Nameless! Now Rogue will finally know how it feels to have his identity ripped away from him in cruel and unusual punishment. What was your thinking behind it?
  
  And I'm right excited for the new riddle.

  My thinking was that I translated the riddle into simple terms, and began to really look at it. As seen below.

  "Dead with the action of pausing before doing so, the answer to the state of confusion is that it includes more states of confusion. And with the answer will come to a great conflict to a home that is no longer home."

  This could be the Civil War in Skyrim because "Departed with hesitation" could be that the Legion and Stormcloaks are at a stand still and are hesitating to really attack, "the solution to the turmoil that includes even more turmoil" could be that the because Stormcloak rebellion it has put the Empire in more of a state of confusion than before, "And with the solution will come great strife to a home that is no longer home" this sounds familiar to what Ulfric says in his great speech about why he fights this war I quote"I fight for we few who did come home, only to find a country full of strangers wearing familiar faces!", but I honestly doubt it is

  Here is your new riddle.

  "We are the Three divines. One is young and has no respect, the other is older and respected, and the final one is the oldest and the most respected. One cries when a child dies, another one is careless and carefree, and the last one is wise beyond her age. We represent the stages of Life. Who are we?"

  Ah that makes sense, I think most of us think waaaay to much into it, going on about metaphors and representation when it's actually pretty literal.

  I was thinking about that, the whole group of 3 thing has got me wracking my mind for trios in ES.

  But alas I'm stumped, this one's a thinker Nameless.

  The tribunal was a good guess, I will give him that.

  Well, you have three days to try and guess. So take all the time you need.

  It sounds like you are a triple goddess, Dibella, Mara, and Kynareth?

  I hate you Paws, so much right now, but you are correct. Dibella is the Maiden, Mara is the Mother, and Kynareth, though Kyne was the one I was looking for, is the Crone. You may now pick my pic and please have mercy on me.

  Does that mean that I can also change my avatar, shrug off the last remnants of Rogue's riddles?

  Ok so here's your picture, he who must not be named. Tom Riddle:

  

  I'll think one up, but if Zon, Delta or Tenebrous have one already prepped they are welcome to have my spot.

  Yes, you can go back to the Khajiit pic you had if you want.

  I would allow that, but it is up to Rogue since he created this and the rules.

  Goddamit Phil! I didn't even get a go, although to be fair I would never have guessed that. I'm now dreading what you're cooking up, probably some obscure reference to one chapter in one book no ones ever heard of apart from our resident lore buffs. Or an innuendo, that also seems pretty likely.

  I am amazed that he actually got the connection really. Now is the time to go read obscure Lore, Shor, Son of Shor, or anything MK has written.

  Also, what would you have guessed? I am curious.

  Haha, ok no innuendo. And not too obscure:
