0 fabpig Posted September 12, 2013 Report Share Posted September 12, 2013 Seems everyone's too scared, pla. Bearing in mind my 100% record with your riddles, I'm not afraid to make a fool of myself... So.. Mercury Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 plasmid Posted September 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2013 I'm neither a planet nor a liquid metal.They shouldn't be scared of little ol' me, I'm just tossing one out there to keep folks on their toes in case Shakeepuddn decides to drop by and really whallop them with a stumper. If it's any help, consider the "I" in this riddle to be the one acting whenever you see a verb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 plainglazed Posted September 18, 2013 Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 woot, woot, some heavyweight riddlers back here again. have been contemplating this one quite a bit ever since you posted it, plasmid. have had some decent ideas but none fit as good as your answers always do (after i fully figure out where you're coming from). and always a little shy to take a stab before prior guesses are confirmed/denied esp from minds like Wilson's (for similar reasons as prior parenthetical statement). but ize gotta try a laser?

0 plasmid Posted September 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2013 Apologies for the late reply as I was out of town, but Wilson has this one.The first two line describe a braid, the next two the tales of Samson and Rapunzel, the next pair the possible colors, and the last couple should be obvious.

0 plainglazed Posted September 24, 2013 Report Share Posted September 24, 2013 Nicely solved Wilson. Knew i spoke too soon but the Rapunzel reference Most excellent riddle as always plasmid. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Question
plasmid
Bound by peers to hinder my crimes
For fear I'll defile your eyes
Source of strength in previous times
I once laid a path to the skies
Fire, gold, or night of new moon
Bring these or the earth or the snow
Warm the thinkers blessed by my boon
And gashed, shall I ever regrow
