Sometimes I'm high and sometimes low,
and I creep between your toes.
My orders come from the sky,
I make men fall and rise.

What am I?

Stranded where the castle once stood, with only a couple of places to go.

Took a short journey to the border, I now see twice as many opportunities.

Stood there contemplating the future, do I risk the safety I have here?

I can double my choices once more, but only by stepping into the heart of battle.

Who/what am I?

I have been thinking a chess piece, but because I'm a chess-tard, I wouldn't know specifically which one.

It was indeed a chess piece. It was the 'knight'.

I start with a pitch, an easy throw.
A zip down the middle, stakes are low.
At the park, an overhead dome.
Pop up, grounded, a slide-into home.

What am I?

@ladylazarus1971

But those white kitchen towels are probably clean when white, and dirty when black? Not the other way around? wink

The answer to this riddle has a hole in the middle, and some have been known to fall in it. In tennis it's nothing, but it can be recieved, and sometimes a person may win it. Though not seen or heard it may be perceived. What is it?
