Riddle me this.

Riddle me this.
A riddle thread. Hopefully there are more people here than just myself that enjoy riddles. Smile

First, a few rules.
1.    No googling. I know, unenforceable, so we'll use the honor system.
2.    First person to answer correctly gets to pose the next riddle, or pass. If passed, the previous person poses the next riddle
3.    Wait for the person posing the riddle to verify your answer is correct. Not all obvious answers are the correct answer.
4.    If a riddle goes unanswered, give the answer after 24 hours or so and pose a new one.
5. If a riddle gets answered correctly, but that person neither passes or poses a new riddle, the default is a pass after a reasonable time (say, 4-6 hours)
6. If there are no responses after more than 24 hours, anyone can pose the next riddle.

To start:

Tool of thief
Toy of queen
Always used to be unseen
Sign of joy
Sign of sorrow
Giving all a likeness borrowed

Cunning?

I thought about it for a few moments, and I chose the answer only because I equate cunning to rogues in games and I figure it could also be a toy for queens.

No, but a good guess.

I looked it up after my guess, only to see if I was right. I will allow others to have a chance since I now know the answer.

We have a winner!

Or, at least a correct answer. Pose or pass?

I'll pose one.

Just a guess.

Yay, that was actually an easy one. I'll pass.

I prefer to guess than pose.
