This seems a little too obvious, but:
Are you the talisman?
I am made of what everyone desires - Made out of gold
Or am I lyin'? - I don't think it's been confirmed that it is made out of gold, plus there is a lion pun here because the talisman features a lion
Some might see me as a snake - The talisman also features a snake
Also:
I am seen
Before I am ever acquired.
The talisman is first seen in the intro movie, but is not actually acquired until late in the game

The "lyin'" was indeed a word play - which is why I wrote as " lyin' " vs " lying "

Hold on, hold on. This doesn't make sense. 
Firstly, I asked yesterday if you were the bottle of Gambler's Oil. (Everyone wants luck!) But my question seems to have disappeared - who knows why.
And secondly, Tawm ... you said this item was found in New Orleans. The Talisman is not found in New Orleans. Gabriel finds it in the snake mound in Benin, after Wolfgang sacrifices himself.
From Rudy's Sierra Chest (specific page):
So ... I'm confused.
Should we start again?

From Rudy's Sierra Chest (specific page):
It's even in a cutscene. Gabe has a big "NO!!!" moment, lifts the lid of the table, gets the Ritter talisman, and curses: "Tetelo, you'll pay for this! YOU B**CH!"After failing to lift the lid of the table with the metal rods, Wolfgang instructs Gabe to remove the heart of the mummy in the next room. At that point Wolfgang sacrifices himself by cutting out his own heart and opening the table. Gabriel then obtains the long-lost Ritter talisman.
So ... I'm confused.

Look closely.
I said, "I am SEEN there."
As in, Gabriel's dream/nightmare.

Oh. *confused* B ... NBS asked if you are found there, and you said that you were seen there. Huh. Well, that'll teach me to assume things. 
Your turn, NBS!

I can see why you would think that.Rath Darkblade wrote: ↑Mon Nov 21, 2022 3:42 am Oh. *confused*

I just remember there was another instance where something is seen somewhere, but not gotten till later in this game we do - and it threw us off.
So I thought I'd acknowledge that I am "seen" in New Orleans to help you both think of items that are seen there.
By trying to avoid confusion, I apparently caused confusion.

Hmm. Don't we see Tetelo's curved knife in Gabriel's dream, also? I think we see it for an instant, and then it turns into three snakes that slither away.
I don't think we see it again until the very end of the game, where Malia-possessed-by-Tetelo is wielding it.
===================================================
Oh, hey!
And also, Gabriel sees the golden skull key (that unlocks the door to the castle's library) in a dream, right after he does the ritual. But he doesn't find it until the next morning.
That skull key's also made of gold (or at least, it's shiny).

Yes... but if you break down the clues...
I am made of what everyone desires - The dagger wouldn't fit what everyone desires (which is gold, which the talisman is made of)
Or am I lyin'? - The play on words indicates a lion... which the dagger doesn't show, though there is a lion at the base of the stairs to the bedroom (where the key is found)
Some might see me as a snake - This is the clue that there's snakes, which is fine for the dagger, but not the key.
The talisman is made of gold, and features a lion battling a snake.

Fire off the first typical question -
Are you in a game with Quest anywhere in the title?

Another typical first question ...
Are you in an Earth-based setting?
And Tawm, sure - I get it. I was just saying that the GK1 talisman wasn't the first object to appear in a dream, that's all. The others obviously don't fit the clues.
