The Sphinx
Halloween has come and gone, and while it might not be as an important event for some (including me), as for others, I do enjoy Halloween-HQ (https://www.deviantart.com/halloween-hq)'s magnificent Halloween Mysteries. So, since this year I got the chance to be a character, how could I have resisted? And while most of you might not even have noticed it, I have been the Sphinx for almost a month. And magnificent it has been.
Once you found her lair (I included two misguiding steps: Search further and you shall find me) this was the part of the story you encountered, as well as the task you were supposed to solve in order to be able to move on. The task itself is formulated very

Beware Mermaids...
I played the Mermaid this year. I was the second-to-last character, just before players reached The Collector for the endgame. On my profile, I had several deviations of mermaids with quotes I made up underneath, some of which lead to a wrong turn sta.sh file that read:
"The fog seems thicker here...
You can't see more than a foot in front of you. Your gut is telling you that this is the wrong way. You turn and walk the other way where the fog thins out.
Perhaps you should use your compass to get on the right path."
A widget at the top of my page titled "Beware Mermaids" contained a sign pointing toward the beach, a comp

This is the solution of the puzzle you could find during %Halloween-HQ (https://www.deviantart.com/halloween-hq)'s Palacio de la Muerte event on the page of the ghost haunting the garden (and gardener), who was obviously a mad hebalist in life, with a great fondness for poisonous plants - MirachRavaia (https://www.deviantart.com/mirachravaia)
You could find the link leading to the ghostly encounter hidden in the :? emoticon in the "my projects" section of my profile page. The link took you here:

Approach the gates and meet your fate...
I played the part of the Maid, and I was the first character that every contestant met with. On my profile, I had 4 images of Maids spread out. One, a small maid icon was simply a deviation. Two others, a painting of a maid and a silhouette of a maid, sent players to a WRONG TURN sta.sh file that read:
"Seems like you've wandered off the path!
Turn around and hurry toward the manor before you find more trouble!"
Finally, in a widget titled "approach the gates and meet your fate" and decorated with a manor, contestants would find the fourth maid image. Clicking on this would lead you to the Maid's st
