If I ask you, "what color is the dragon in my garage?" and your reply becomes true no matter what color you give, you just answered '''Schrödinger's Question'''.
This is a [[Role Playing Game|role-playing]] trope where you determine reality by answering a question whose answer you don't know. It reverses causality: instead of your reply being based on the correct answer, the correct answer is based on your reply. It's a way of letting players in on [[World Building|building the universe]] and, as such, is a subtle form of [[Breaking the Fourth Wall]].
