I do not have rights.

Wild guess.

Are you the flag in Codename: Iceman?
(Specifically the one you have to salute to?)

- You won't see me wave; the flag waves, but the ocean which has waves, does not.
- The flag is honored (salute to it, as I said)
- But for lack of rights in the United States, government works cannot be protected by copyright under 17 USC Section 105; therefore, the national flag is in the public domain.

If you don't have rights ... do you have lefts?

Are you in a game with the word 'quest' anywhere in the title?

No. Nice logic though. I like your explanation for "rights". Wrong, but clever.

Yes

New clue:
I am immovable.

OK, I thought I had it in one guess!

So - in a quest game.

So ... go back to one of your other clues...

Do you have anything to do with a body of water (trying to see if that "wave" is a reference to water)?

*thinks of asking whether the wave is a 'royal wave' ...*
On second thought, let's not ask that. It is a silly guess.

Is the game setting realistic (i.e. either on earth or in space? So, no fantasy?)

No (or yes, but very tangentially)

Yes (So you would consider Space Quest "realistic"?)

Do you take place on Earth?

Upon re-reading my question (which I wrote in a rush), I realise that "realistic" is the wrong word. I meant a "plausible" setting - i.e. either earth or outer space. (We can already blast into outer space, of course, but everything else about Space Quest is hardly plausible).

Are you part of the background graphics?

No

Yes

So not on Earth, Quest in the title, ...

I assume... but going to ask since I was originally so confident with my first guess...

Are you in Space Quest?

Since I'm so confident that Tawm is right (and you know what they say about misplaced confidence), I'll risk this question ...

Are you set in any Space Quest game OTHER than the third one?

(IIRC, Roger visits the Earth at the end of SQ3)

Yes

Are you in an odd numbered Space Quest (we'd know 3 is out, so it'd leave 1 and 5 if that's the case)

Is the Space Quest game that you're in numbered 4 or above?
