Your terra firma is a terra incognita; a mystery, a riddle.
To you I am a mare incognitum; undiscovered, unexplored.
Be wary as you chart the mappa mundi, roving the world in solitude
The world is not as gentle as you; hic sunt dracones.

Desperado blocks himself.

Your terra firma is a terra incognita; a mystery, a riddle.
Desperado has a mark on his shoulder that he doesn't talk about.

To you I am a mare incognitum; undiscovered, unexplored.
He doesn't know Shadow.

Just starting out in Helovia - solitude could be a reference to his being an outcast.

The world is not as gentle as you; hic sunt dracones.
His first stop was the world's edge - a land that certainly would have 'hic sunt dracones' as a warning :P

Desperado,
why don't you come to your senses,
you've been out riding fences,
for so long now.

"It is a stretch, I am aware." Oliver is safe. (EDIT:: just putting this here as a note... but felix has not yet made a post as a prisoner so he is safe. Pretty sure you knew that, but.. yea.)

Your terra firma is a terra incognita; a mystery, a riddle.
- Your firm Land is a unknown land.
- Firm land could refer to him being strong and 'firm' and Shadow not knowing him.
- Terra firma refers to a dry land mass, but Oliver is a pegasus, so the air is more known to him.
- Terra incognita may also be Terra Australis Incognita, which was a made-up southern continent. This makes me think of Dragon's Throat, in which Oliver barely knows anything about.

To you I am a mare incognitum; undiscovered, unexplored.
- Oliver Has not met Shadow, nor has he been in the ocean on the endless blue.

- A mappa mundi is any medieval European map of the world.
- Oliver is a European name.
- Oliver is an outcast, and is alone. Could also refer to him being single at this time.

The world is not as gentle as you; hic sunt dracones.
- hic sunt dracones means here are dragons. Since oliver hasn't seen a dragon, gone to world's edge, nor met anyone from world's edge, I thought of this like a warning from shadow to oliver.

Apollo eyes this mare warily. "Just in case..." Apollo blocks himself.

Your terra firma is a terra incognita; a mystery, a riddle.
Is Chief of the Windtossed Foothills, herdland of the Earth God.

To you I am a mare incognitum; undiscovered, unexplored.
He and Shadow have never met.

Goes out on his own and away from the herd quite often.

The world is not as gentle as you; hic sunt dracones.
Personality reference; Apollo is gentle.

Deimos blocks Huyana.

Your terra firma is a terra incognita; a mystery, a riddle. - Shadow has never been to the Basin.
To you I am a mare incognitum; undiscovered, unexplored. - Huyana has never met Shadow. Mare incognitum is also a reference to an "unknown sea". Sea could be a ref to Huy's water magic.
Be wary as you chart the mappa mundi, roving the world in solitude - Frequently travels alone. Has no companion.
The world is not as gentle as you; hic sunt dracones. - Gentle could be personality ref.

Huyana is not sought.

more than 48 hours has passed; Hototo is who I seek!

Your terra firma is a terra incognita; a mystery, a riddle. Terra means earth, Hototo is the son of the Earth God and has Earth magic.
To you I am a mare incognitum; undiscovered, unexplored. He doesn't know Shadow, plus he is a virgin - mares are unexplored
Be wary as you chart the mappa mundi, roving the world in solitude He is an outcast
The world is not as gentle as you; hic sunt dracones. he is kind, and can bond with dragons.

0 | Iffy on this one. You said terra incognita as if Hototo disguises himself or tries not to be the son of the Earth God? Otherwise, it seems great to me.

+1 | Nice clue!

+1 | Another nice clue - I got that clue right away

+1 | he is kinder than the world

-1 | "hic sunt dracones" would literally mean "Here be dragons" in the present tense. That, to me, would imply that he HAS a dragon, not that he has the ability to bond to one. I think this clue was particularly misleading.

Overall score of 2, so that's a fail from me.

Your terra firma is a terra incognita; a mystery, a riddle. Terra means earth, Hototo is the son of the Earth God and has Earth magic.

0 - "Your strong land is an unknown land" > This doesn't seem to point to Hototo at all. In Latin, terra can also just mean 'land', rather than 'earth'.

0 - To you I am a mare incognitum; undiscovered, unexplored. He doesn't know Shadow, plus he is a virgin - mares are unexplored

Because you were using latin, I need to give this a 0. If you're going to mix languages, make sure you know your english cognates!. In latin, 'mare' is sea, and so 'mare incognitum' says something very different.

1 - Be wary as you chart the mappa mundi, roving the world in solitude He is an outcast

Yep! Definitely thought of an outcast!

1 -The world is not as gentle as you; he is kind

-1 hic sunt dracones...and can bond with dragons.

This definitely indicated either the Edge, or a character with a dragon. I don't think it's a fair clue to use something that a character has the potential to do - there are far too many possibilities.

Over all, only 1 for me. Fail.
