Tasks / Play A Game Of Riddles

This task is retired.

My first's found in tulip, petunia, and plum
My second? Fruit, flower, and forest have some.
My third is so common there's nine in a game
That gives you eight points for the fourth in my name.
My fifth's found eight times in this sentence alone,
My whole merits welcome the first time it's shown.


Play a riddle game. The precise rules are up to you, but ideally every riddle involved should be made up on the fly.

Ideally any riddles you make up should avoid stupid mistakes like pretending a six-letter word is only five letters long. But it is up to you.

Isn't this one from Redwall?

No.

The only solution indeed; UFIJES

You fool, UFIJES is the charter-mark whose appearance during birthing rights augers well for the health of the child, and is welcomed by parents in the Old Kingdom from Garth Nix's Abhorsen trilogy. Duh.

I think this one's a little undervalued. Coming up with a bunch of riddles on the fly sounds really hard.
