Who am I?

Annubis (spelling) the Egyptian God of Death? I'm afraid I'm not very familiar with Egyptian mythology, but he brings the souls where they belong (separated by good and evil) on board of a ship.

Annubus i Think it is spelled...

Neither, but you're getting close. The mythology on the creation of day and night will tell you the character I'm talking about, who has been attacking a very important ship to keep it from rising back into the sky, therefore sparking the never-ending battle between light and darkness, and created day and night.

Ok let me go to Egpyt

Anyone want to continue guessing or should I let the mic go to someone else? The answer to this Who Am I is found in the Egyptian mythology on the creation of day and night.

just give us the answer Kenji

Mirumoto_Kenjiro · **Reply #266 on:** September 09, 2005, 05:52:42 PM

Ok then. The answer is Apep, a monster that daily battles the sun god Re in his ship. As Re steers his ship to the underworld to check on those in the afterlife, Apep tries to keep Re's ship from returning to the sky, therefore starting the neverending battle between light and darkness. And Re wins the battle every time and returns to the sky, creating the continuous cycle of day and night.

Anyone now has the next question.

Interesting Kenji. I am the Queen of the old Ways and I am worshipped in three forms.

Can you give any more hints Nick? I fail at this so far.

Nick22 · **Reply #269 on:** September 28, 2005, 02:21:04 PM

i Am mentioned in Shakespeare, and I was a main character(The Villianess in fact) in the 1998 TV miniseries "Merlin".

Malte279 · **Reply #270 on:** September 28, 2005, 02:41:54 PM

I don't know, but a Villainess being mentioned in Shakespeare and also in a series called "Merlin"... I guess it might be Morgause, the sister of king Arthur and mother to his son Mordred?

Nick22 · **Reply #271 on:** September 28, 2005, 02:45:16 PM

No not morgause, who is also known as Morgan Le fay 'Morgan of the faeries". Shhe did appear in the merlin series, but she was not the main villianess.

Malte279 · **Reply #272 on:** September 29, 2005, 03:53:03 AM

Morgause and Morgan le Fay are not the same. I thought so too, but in fact they are two sisters. I have not seen that series so it was just a guess. In which Shakespeare play is the character mentioned?

Nick22 · **Reply #273 on:** September 29, 2005, 09:13:56 AM

A Midsummer Night's dream, Malte.

Malte279 · **Reply #274 on:** September 29, 2005, 10:50:57 AM

Hippolyta? I am not sure whether or not another possibility that came to my mind is mentioned in Midsummer Night's dream. That other possibility would be Ariadne.

Nick22 · **Reply #275 on:** September 29, 2005, 01:01:47 PM

No Ariande was the maiden in Greek Myth was was famous from her weaving skill. She became famous and boasted that she could outweave the gods. This enraged Aprodite, who challenged her to a weaving contest. Aprodite, being a god, outwove Ariadne, Ariadne , crushed that she lost, hanged herself. Aprodite then changed Ariadne into a spider.The creature i was lookoking for was Queen mab.

Malte279 · **Reply #276 on:** September 30, 2005, 05:37:13 PM

I do not recal ever hearing the name and confess that I would have failed at this question. Can you come up with another Nick?

Nick22 · **Reply #277 on:** October 01, 2005, 01:08:43 PM

Certainly. mab , in case you are wondering, is mentioned in a forest scene where Titania and Oberon(The King and Queen of the forest faeries) are talking. i can't recall who mentioned her exactly(I think Titania) but I know she is mentioned. Shakespeare was a great researcher of myth and history, and used them often in his plays. In the miniseries Mab was played by Miranda Richardson. anyway, I accompanied Emilia Earhart on her last flight.

Nick22 · **Reply #278 on:** October 06, 2005, 02:47:33 PM

If you want a hint, just ask...

Malte279 · **Reply #279 on:** October 06, 2005, 03:22:05 PM

Who is Emilia Earhart? I can't find her at Wikipedia and google only provides me with lots of schools named after her and song lyriks that mention the name. I never heart of her.
