In response to a few PM's I've received about teams, and to encourage cooperation (since this is turning out to be a greater undertaking than I first thought), I am now offering up to three membership slots. You can have teams larger than this, but only the three biggest contributors will actually get the membership, so if you would like to be recognized as a team, please name who you'd like to nominate.

We nominate 1 user to actually join.

Anyone print this out. I see the boxes on the side of the picture are cut off so that means the picture is not complete. In art class we'd get these and have to make a cube using glue etc and thus it'd be a cube with some next shit. The manta/string ray has four dissects as does the ladybug, The flounder and scarab only have on at the 1/3 mark on each of the thing. I'm saying something with that. These need to be printed out and folded same with the circle and triangle. Good luck with the rar cracks fellas.

you fucking wish, It didn't work.

Adding on to what I was saying earlier he chose the name Hermes Trismegistus for a reason. Hermeticism is based on religion, philosophy and other shit. I was thinking about the animals per say and while I was digging hermetica is based on this "Three Parts of the Wisdom of the Whole Universe" Alchemy, Astrology and Theurgy. Theurgy I would think is out of the picture due to it being "magic" and Alchemy doesn't quite fit the picture. Astrology is one of the only logical answers right now that I've come up with, now I may beleive that the animals have something to do with the Astrological Clock in Venice and certain animals are certain roman numerals. This is all I've come up for now.



UPDATE: I was looking into Corpus Hermeticum and I think it may be one of these from the scripts.

I. Pœmandres, the Shepherd of Men
(II.) The General Sermon
II. (III.) To Asclepius
III. (IV.) The Sacred Sermon
IV. (V.) The Cup or Monad
V. (VI.) Though Unmanifest God is Most Manifest
VI. (VII.) In God Alone is Good and Elsewhere Nowhere
VII. (VIII.) The Greatest Ill Among Men is Ignorance of God
VIII. (IX.) That No One of Existing Things doth Perish, but Men in Error Speak of Their Changes as Destructions and as Deaths
IX. (X.) On Thought and Sense
X. (XI.) The Key
XI. (XII.) Mind Unto Hermes
XII. (XIII.) About the Common Mind
XIII. (XIV.) The Secret Sermon on the Mountain
XIV. (XV.) A Letter to Asclepius
(XVI.) The Definitions of Asclepius unto King Ammon
(XVII.) Of Asclepius to the King
(XVIII.) The Encomium of Kings

The following are the titles given by John Everard:
The First Book
The Second Book. Called Poemander
The Third Book. Called The Holy Sermon
The Fourth Book. Called The Key
The Fifth Book
The Sixth Book. Called That in God alone is Good
The Seventh Book. His Secret Sermon in the Mount Of Regeneration, and
The Profession of Silence. To His Son Tat
The Eighth Book. That The Greatest Evil In Man, Is The Not Knowing God
The Ninth Book. A Universal Sermon To Asclepius
The Tenth Book. The Mind to Hermes
The Eleventh Book. Of the Common Mind to Tat
The Twelfth Book. His Crater or Monas
The Thirteenth Book. Of Sense and Understanding
The Fourteenth Book. Of Operation and Sense
The Fifteenth Book. Of Truth to His Son Tat
The Sixteenth Book. That None of the Things that are, can Perish
The Seventeenth Book. To Asclepius, to be Truly Wise

i am ripping my hair out i dont care about membership at this point i just want a solution not even the whole thing just the password :(
whatever I need sleep

Hey so I'm headed to bed, friendly remember this is just a fun puzzle, please don't lose sleep over it if you have work or something else important you need to dedicate your time to. There will be other phun events and challenges like this in the future.

[Thornzzz]

I've already seen this riddle before, so I'll give a hint. Hermes Trismegistus is meant to be the Greek god Hermes and the Egyptain god Throth combined; the animals in the picture are all found either around or in the Mediterranean sea which is what separates Egypt and Greece. After you find out that connection you put the pieces together and they make a map. You'll find the answer after that.

Do you have the complete version of this, OP?

I am trying to figure out if there is simply a message behind it, or if the images are supposed to me aligned in a certain way.

[Cryptic™]

The answer to the puzzle is: bacon.

I do not believe there are any more components to this particular puzzle.
As I recall there was one other puzzle, a hill cipher, that this Hermes fellow passed to a different Worlds user, but that one has long since been lost. To my knowledge it was unrelated to this one.
