A friend sent me this website Chuck Norris Facts. Only a few of the comments are particularly funny, but it made me realise there are probably a few facts we didn't know about DM and its charatcers. For example:
- Gothmog has won 'best male alto' for three years running in Voborg's winter harvest contest.
- Every one out of two beard hairs of Stamm are made from spun gold
- Tiggy Tamal spelt backwards is 'Lamat yggit', the vexirk phrase meaning 'early bathtime'
- Guns don't kill people, Conflux kills people
- Stamm has played DM 167 times,and CSB 54 times. He has never taken himself as a character. He has never played DM 2 either, though has always meant to.
- The dragon had to pull out of DM at the last minute due to commitment conflicts, and its part is infact played by three trolins in a dragon outfit.
Anyone know any others?

Actually, yeah, here are a few more:
* Zed is not in fact a Duke but instead a well known popular TV presenter who recently took over the helm of Countdown. He disguises his true identity by spelling his name backwards.
* Syra is often embarrased that alhough her demeanour is one of gentleness and humility, she suffers from inordinately offensive flatulence.
* Lord Chaos was a late contender in the auditions to present "How clean is your house?". He still keeps a broom under his cloak in defiance of being turned down by the producers as "too anal".
* Rearrange the letters of Leyla and you get "alley", coincidentally the place where she was conceived.
* "Dragon Spit" is not in fact a lethal fire belching weapon but in fact a nick-name the Vexirks used to describe Mongor after an especially upsetting Summer Fete that involved a barbecue, a gas burner, and sixteen kilos of sausages.
* Hissssa is not his real name. There was confusion over the phone when he gave his details to the Champion Mirror Registry Department and they misunderstood him snezzing when he was asked for his name.
* Librasulus has another name, but prefers this one because it has the word "bra" in it.
* Wuuf has had his tail trodden on over 16,500 times since his various reincarnations in the dungeons under Anaias
* Having found no work after appearing in a little known play called "Star Wars" on a distant world, Jawas applied - via wormhole - to take housekeeping duties in the rat infested cellar of the Grey Lord's home. He initially declined, but when he realised they would work for cheese and corn, gave them the job. He instantly regretted it after realising how unreliable they were, describing them as "vexing and irksome".

TEE HEE! Oh the salacious gossip!
A few more, or so I've heard.
- The abrupt change of the drumstick from being Viborg's favorite food product to being completely absent between the time of DM and CSB can be best explained by the fact that, prior to the expedition into the deepest reaches of Mt. Anaias, nobody knew what they were actually made of. Rumor has it that Daroou still enjoys them, though.
- Mophus was a last-minute addition to the cast. Seriously, you don't think they picked this guy because they had a choice, right? Their first choice was an Italian plumber whose name escapes me at the moment, who had a "prior committment."
- Chani Sayyadina Sihaya managed to not have her name changed to "Chani Smith" for the English language release, but her request for a Bollywood-style song and dance number with a troupe of Mummies as backup dancers was denied.
- Gothmog ended up his mirror after being bashed over the head repeatedly by Halk. "I thought he was Lord Chaos and I caught him taking a dump," the Barbarian protested.

- it is rumoured there is a hidden charatcer in DM. If you walk a certain number of steps and sidestep a few times, and click the wall, you can gain access to a character called 'Azizi' who has a unique 'hide shield'. It's true!
- All trolins are called 'Fred'
- Theron once spend a night in the dungeons after an amusing prank involving a long thin firework, a tin of green paint, and the replacement of the Grey Lord's firestaff.
- The grey Lord's eyebrows are false, for reasons he has never gone in to

- the unit of currency around the dungeon is the screamer slice.
- gigglers steal items to help build their nests...wait, maybe those are magpies.
- boris is actually 100 years old, and entered the dungeon not to defeat chaos but just to find enough money to pay for his next plastic surgery
- rusters used to be able to rust weapons, until one managed to get thier hands on Lord Chaos's favourite spikey helmet
- four of the champions are just using secret idenities, and are actually the superheroes Smileman, The Halk, Hairgirl and Fuzzman
- dungeon creatures have no word for 'grey'

* At school, Wu Tse caused some confusion over her gender, often being mistaken for a boy and labelled "Wussy". After a demonstration of her blade prowess, Taunters quickly lost their tongue.
* Mophus doesn't actually have teeth but wears a glowing gumshield designed to illuminate dark passageways and scare small creatures
* Nabi is in fact the famous actor and singer, Howard Keele
* Take two bottles in to the shower? No. Daroou takes 5.
* Some people expect Stamm to stutter. In fact, his name is an acronym meaning Stop, Turn And Murder Monsters.

As punishment for one of them accidentally bonking Lord Chaos on the head with a club during an inspection of the dungeons, all the Blue Trolls were ordered to repaint the entire dungeon, changing the colour from Dull Grey to Monotonous Grey. That's why they're so grumpy - they'd already used up all the green paint in a massive paint fight (see their legs?).
Demons use the pits in Chaos's room as toilets. Did you think those things in the Dragon's lair were ashes?
Did you notice there's no toilet paper anywhere in the dungeon? Well, look again - it's there. It's just that some creatures are slightly less than popular, so bore the brunt of a major practical joke by the others.
When you "kill" monsters, they don't really die - that puff of smoke is them teleporting away to the pub (or wherever) 'cause they can't be arsed to fight any more.
Lord Chaos never existed - it's just two Vexirks messing around, who get out of there sharpish once you Fuse them - this dissolves the robe hiding them so they have to sod off before the Grey Lord arrives to yell at them.
The Dragon keeps a secret store of Human Steaks hidden somewhere in his lair - how else do you think he stays that size?

* The one assignment that Supernanny failed, and was never shown on TV, was the "My couatl controls the household and I feel trapped in my own dungeon" episode.
* The hairs on Halk's chest were actually an accurate map of "The Matrix" that show the clear path. Unfortunately, after an accident with a lit torch, the key parts were burnt off. Now, he gets lost every time.
* Theron was named after a local dance called "The Ron" that involved couples facing away from each other with their arms in the air and one leg out to the side, then hopping madly into tubs of black treacle. He still gets embarrased about it.

-Originally, Lord Chaos wanted to imprison 42 heroes in the mirrors, but since he is dyslxic, be only came to 24. We should be thankful for that, because otherwise, the universe might have vanished and have been replaced with something even more incredible and bizarre.
-When fighting near a flight of stairs, Halk often gets confused whether he just went up a level or down a level.
-The EW rune is often mistaken for a Tetris block.
-Boris is actually no "hero". He was simply on the run from authorities who accused him of rabbit murder when he stumbled upon Lord Chaos.
-"Stamm" can mean (among others) "log", "trunk" or "tribe" in German, and "Hosen" means "pants" or "trousers". And that isn't even a joke.

- it was rumoured that lord chaos's dungeon is infact losing money, which lead to a recent spate of employee terminations. Infact it was merely a misunderstanding between lord chaos and the dragon, and the use of the word 'firestaff'
- Lord chaos had considered downsizing his staff, but after the vexirks' reaction to it he realised he may need a dictionary first
- The character of Lord Librasulus does not appear in the DM game because he realised all he would be doing was standing around and probably not get seen anyway, so he employed Rolf Harris to do a life-sized mock up over a fireball shooter.
- giant scoprions aren't really that big, they're just stand really close to the screen
- zed once said the zokathra spell backwards and blew off his moustache. He now has to wear a false one

- The worms once had a poll and decided to rename screamers "squeakers" as they felt it undermined their status
- Syra's infamous beard is really just a rather unfortunate birthmark
- The Storm Ring was named the morning after Iaido and Chani cooked late night curry using ful powder
- Coautls get somewhat embarrassed by their large ears
- Hisssssa only has half a set of teeth. This is because Halk clubbed him round the head.
- No one has ever seen the back of a Wizards eye
- Linflas is gay
- The resisdents of Viborg no longer accept potions from Elija after it was alleged that he only got his priest levels from talking in his sleep
- Blue hazes were originally coloured green, but a group of colour blind Vexirks objected
- Tiggy once got very jealous when Boris shouted "Oh Kath" during a date
- Black flames cannot move because they are hypnotised by the random fluctuations in the Ra doors
- Alex is a chav and has an Asbo
- Gigglers are named so due to their reaction after they saw two Trolins attempting to mate
- The cheeses are made from rats milk
- Wuuf has always carried an empty flask due to a secret bladder problem. Gothmog has suspected this after counting all the blue puddles throughout the dungeon
- Stone Golems can't sit down due to rock piles
- Halk once got his head stuck in a portcullis on level 4
- Hawk asked Elija for a refund after his magic box failed to work on Chaos
- Stamm has a side business making wigs from his beard hair. He is currently saving up for a hardcleave.

Iaido Ruyito Chiburi mirror Registeration was mixed up due to his background His name is Ryuito and is a master of cleaning the blood off his sword an ancient skill in the art of Iai(do). Rumor has it when using a sword blood never gets on it.
Iaido mistook Chaos for being a Feudal lord and was captured after being invited over for tea, That's why he has no shoes.

Heh, heh, this was a funny thread. Here are a few more:
* Although Elija appears to be of African origin, he is in fact Richard Branson wearing face paint
* Tiggy was recently seen on a Channel 4 documentary: "Mistaken identity: How to change sex without a sex change."
* The Pain Rats used to dress up in leather and whips but even Lord Chaos found that a little disturbing and asked them stop. He was convinced they would try and sleep with the Champions rather than kill them.
* Screamers have no word for "screamer". Largely because they have no words at all.

Ah, this thread, forgot about it 
- Mophus's smile is the only thing Chuck Norris fears
- Ironically, Linflas is the only straight DM character, although Wu Tse claims to be bi-curious only to maintain her 'son of heaven' image
- All the gold coins in DM are actually chocolate coins, it's just they have been down in the dungeon so long they've sort of hardened up.
- Vexirks aren't small, they are just very far away
- Rock monsters are very slow creatures. If you play back their utterances at 100 times the speed, you would hear the secret ingredient for kentucky fried chicken
- There was a spoon, but Alex Ander nicked it
- Those aren't real stone golems. Lord Chaos is just waving little puppet golems right infront of your eyes and hitting you with a big rock behind your back.
- Halk fears the colour yellow.

Oh, someone put this thread in the vi altar. 
- The Sar coin ended up not being in the final dungeon due to fiscal mismanagement by Lord Chaos. He kept decreasing the precious metal content and minting more until it had been inflated into worthlessness. The subsequent wiping out of most of his savings is why Mongor the dragon is so irritable.
- You used to be able to make ful bombs. Every DM disk contained polymorphic self-modifying code that deleted the possibility of doing so and all trace of the code that made it possible the instant you tried to type that ridiculous fake cheat code.

- Dungeon Master 3: Happy Days Again was to feature many exciting set peices including Halk having to jump over a pool of shark infested water with two planks strapped to his feet.
- Lord Chaos is really Kaiser Suze
- You don't want to see Halk when he is angry, unless you like the sight of a fullgrown barbarian crying and stamping his deerskin boot

Wuuf the bika borrowed the flask from her uncle and unfortunately
had not been able to return it - she ended up in one of those mirrors.
Wu Tse had been invited to a cocktail party on Mount Anais, but she turned into the wrong road and accidentially entered Lord Chaos`dungeon. Man, she was p**ssed when she found out.
Hissssa has no items because he forgot to reclaim his baggage at the airport.
Gothmog wears contact lenses, mainly due to the fact that glasses would not add to his eerie appearance.
Leyla Shadowseek had become bored in the screamer generation room on level 5. So she made a rope out of daroou`s fuzzy hair.
On occasion, Linflas pokes his nose. He learned it from Stamm.
