I'm working on a campaign that has the player meet a creature pretending to be a sphynx and ask riddles of the players.

The trick is that that creature is both not that smart and thinks he's very clever. They way past him is to praise him for being so smart that he agrees to let the adventurers go

What are some good 'bad' riddles to ask ?

Gotcha ^^

"I'm light as a feather, but not even the strongest men can hold me for long"

The answer is actually "breath" but it also works with "a fart".

PS: an awkward "riddle" my granddad loved was; how many legs does a cow have?

His answer: twelve. It has two in the front, two in the back, two on the right side, two on the left side, and one in each corner.
