Just one more thing
If you want to rondomize result eflbane then mad=dog's idea is good.
however regardless whether riddle is easy or tough you can justify your previous knowledge by the character's previous knowledge. it is possible that even a low intelligence character has already heard this riddle from a monk in candlekeep for example and so knew the answer.
