Who am I?




Outcast, always alone at the end of the games we play

Beauty, defies me and leads to my demise

Jagged, the structure in which I stay

Fire, surrounds me its warmth I use as a disguise

Restless, even in death I return

Expendable, are the pawns I send forward to stop you




Hints will follow if you can't already guess who I am...

          Are you a




          King in Chess?




          Outcast, always alone at the end of the games we play




          The King tends to be alone in the endgames.




          Beauty, defies me and leads to my demise




          A beautifully played game of chess leads to the demise of the opposing king.




          Jagged, the structure in which I stay




          Chess boards are jagged squares.




          Fire, surrounds me its warmth I use as a disguise




          This I’m not sure.




          Restless, even in death I return




          In a new game.




          Expendable, are the pawns I send forward to stop you




          Yes, they are, (although not really depending on how you play).

          You are ...




          The queen in a game of chess




          Outcast, always alone at the end of the games we play




          The queen usually is either sacrificed or one of the last pieces in play




          Beauty, defies me and leads to my demise




          The queen is very powerful and can sometimes lead novice players into making mistakes when they try to rely too heavily on her




          Jagged, the structure in which I stay




          Pieces in chess can only move in rigid, predefined patterns




          Fire, surrounds me its warmth I use as a disguise




          Not quite sure but maybe it is talking about other pieces surrounding the queen at the start of a game of chess?




          Restless, even in death I return




          Most people choose to revive their queen if they make it to the other side with a pawn




          Expendable, are the pawns I send forward to stop you




          The pawns in a game of chess are expendable

          Probably not correct but I think a fun answer.



          You are




          Lord Sauron




          Explanation



          Outcast, always alone at the end of the games we play




          Sauron tries to attack the Free Peoples of Middle Earth multiple times and each time he is defeated and banished (outcast) for a time.




          Beauty, defies me and leads to my demise




          He is defeated by elves, described to be a beautiful race. You could also say he is destroyed by the beauty of Frodo and Sam's freindship which allows them to persevere until the Ring is destroyed.




          Jagged, the structure in which I stay




          Sauron resides in Dol Guldur and then later in Barad-dûr, both jagged structures.




          Fire, surrounds me its warmth I use as a disguise




          Sauron projects a flaming lidless eye above his tower. Many think the eye is Sauron himself but the books never actually say that it is.




          Restless, even in death I return




          Sauron has been defeated multiple times. Each time his spirit is banished for a while but returns after gaining strength. At least until the Ring is destroyed.




          Expendable, are the pawns I send forward to stop you




          Sauron's main forces are orcs which come in large hordes and are very expendable.

          • Oh man I wish I could give you a +10, 'he is destroyed by the beauty of Frodo and Sam's freindship', that really made me laugh. Unfortunately this is not the person I was thinking of.

          How about:




          Bowser, of Super Mario Brothers fame




          Outcast, always alone at the end of the games we play




          At the end of the game, Mario has to defeat Bowser




          Beauty, defies me and leads to my demise




          Bowser steals the princess, and Mario wants to get her back, which is what brings around Bowser's demise




          Jagged, the structure in which I stay




          He stays in a castle




          Fire, surrounds me its warmth I use as a disguise




          There is fire on some levels




          Restless, even in death I return




          After you beat Bowser, he comes back again in the next game




          Expendable, are the pawns I send forward to stop you




          You know, the little guys you have to jump on, or POW off of a brick ledge? Those guys.




          How did I guess this?




          The rot13 of the acrostic of course.

            Explanation



            Outcast, always alone at the end of the games we play




            Sauron tries to attack the Free Peoples of Middle Earth multiple times and each time he is defeated and banished (outcast) for a time.




            Beauty, defies me and leads to my demise




            He is defeated by elves, described to be a beautiful race. You could also say he is destroyed by the beauty of Frodo and Sam's freindship which allows them to persevere until the Ring is destroyed.




            Jagged, the structure in which I stay




            Sauron resides in Dol Guldur and then later in Barad-dûr, both jagged structures.




            Fire, surrounds me its warmth I use as a disguise




            Sauron projects a flaming lidless eye above his tower. Many think the eye is Sauron himself but the books never actually say that it is.




            Restless, even in death I return




            Sauron has been defeated multiple times. Each time his spirit is banished for a while but returns after gaining strength. At least until the Ring is destroyed.




            Expendable, are the pawns I send forward to stop you




            Sauron's main forces are orcs which come in large hordes and are very expendable.

            • Oh man I wish I could give you a +10, 'he is destroyed by the beauty of Frodo and Sam's freindship', that really made me laugh. Unfortunately this is not the person I was thinking of.

            Probably not correct but I think a fun answer.

            How about:




            Bowser, of Super Mario Brothers fame




            Outcast, always alone at the end of the games we play




            At the end of the game, Mario has to defeat Bowser




            Beauty, defies me and leads to my demise




            Bowser steals the princess, and Mario wants to get her back, which is what brings around Bowser's demise




            Jagged, the structure in which I stay




            He stays in a castle




            Fire, surrounds me its warmth I use as a disguise




            There is fire on some levels




            Restless, even in death I return




            After you beat Bowser, he comes back again in the next game




            Expendable, are the pawns I send forward to stop you




            You know, the little guys you have to jump on, or POW off of a brick ledge? Those guys.




            How did I guess this?




            The rot13 of the acrostic of course.
