a cloud?

very impressive. clouds take many shapes and sizes. sometimes, you may see signs, or animals or anything ur brain can fathom. it goes no direction, but follows the will of the 4 winds. as a cloud, i'd imagine they call it kings. when the storm is over and clouds begin to vanish, the 7 angels will bring light. each angel signifying the colors of the rainbow.
yes, it is cloud.

riddle #5 5/10
it is a vile plague
a silent killer that kills strongest
born of other blood, hatred and lust
only a few will stand upon the might of this plague
others will seek the high ground or seek refuge
but they will find no comfort, for there will be expendables......

I think what it is Face, is that there's no "ah- ha" that would make it one specific answer. For most riddles, there is some clever turn of phrase, or some very specific metaphors that if you think long enough about clearly lead to a specific answer. I feel like with these, even when you tell me the answer, it's one of like 100 things that would work with that riddle because the imagry is very non-specific.
I know these are Hobbit-inspired riddles, but I think we're at the "What's in my pocket," phase :P

fair enough. lol
the answer to riddle #5 is mosquitos
it is a vile plague
malaria kills the most.
a silent killer that kills strongest
no one is truly immune to the disease
born of other blood, hatred and lust
the females need blood of others mammals to give birth
only a few will stand upon the might of this plague.
people with sickle cell are more resistant.
others will seek the high ground or seek refuge
people will stay far from waters where they spawn
but they will find no comfort, for there will be expendables......
does this meet the category of mosquitos? let me know pleassssse.

any machinery of that nature is the right answer. i'll take those as the correct answer also, but the sound of thunder clashing, but no thunder. what is it?
the answer is air plane. fighter jets, anything related to flying machinary. but yes, trains and bulldozers do also make really loud noises . but nothing that sounds like breaking the sound barrier. but no thunder.
an unatural entity
made of metals and other things
large and robust in size
larger than most things.
fueled by the deep depths of the earth
fueled by gasoline or fossil fuels
while others migrate and fly to distant lands
this one poisons and destroys all in it's wake
fighter planes drop poison gas, bombs, napalm, Hiroshima
the sound of thunder clashing, but no thunder
these planes can break the sound barrier.

riddle #8 8/10
this instrument eats away at the soul
sooner than later, if you are not alert, it will come
secretly sucking your life force, it goes unnoticed.
the grim reaper creeps silently
it strikes at the heart with one mighty blow
living on borrowed time, anyone will not last so long
hours, days and nights passes freely as wind...
if you are not alert, He will come
what is this instrument?

The French Horn.
