Geocache Description:


 photo riddler-1.jpg 

Real Name: Edward Nashton aka Edward Nigma

Abilities: Genius Level deductive reasoning, Vast cryptic knowledge

Edward Nashton was a brilliant child but troubled child. He received high marks on an important test, and his father was unable to grasp the fact that Nashton was brilliant, believed he was cheating, and beat him. This lead to his obsession with telling the truth, which later manifested into his obsession with riddles. His madness as well as his descent into crime, led to an intense need to rise out of anonymity and prove his intelligence. Most of The Riddler’s crimes are about proving his intelligence over various subjects, including the police, Batman and even other Villains 

 

 

 

This is a part of The Dark Cache Series [TDCS], your quest to find Batman. In order to do so, you must find and defeat 4 villains- The Joker, The Riddler, Two-Face, and Bane. Each villan cache holds a piece of the final coordinates to find Batman.

Along the way, you may also find 3 of your allies- Alfred, Commisioner Gordon, and Robin. These are not necessary to find Batman, but you may find them rather useful. 

 

 

These coodinates will not bring you to the location of the cache, only to the parking area! In order to defeat The Riddler, you must first solve  the following riddles and use your answers to decript the correct coordinates:

 

A.  "If you look at the numbers on my face, you won't find thirteen any place." 
Take the total number of letters in your answer, multiple it by 3 and then divide by 5.

B. "Tear one off and scratch my head; what was once red is black instead." 
Take the total number of letters in your answer, add 5 and then subtract 7.

C. "The eight of us go forth, not back, to protect our king from a foe's attack." 
Take the total number of letters in your answer, add 7 and divide by 3.

D. We're five little items of an everyday sort; you'll find us all in 'a tennis court'."
Take the total number of letters in your answer and subtract 2. 

 

Now, take your answers and plug them into the following coordinates: N 44 00.A3B W 88 C6.77D. This is where you will find The Riddler. 
You can check your answers for this puzzle on GeoChecker.com.
