1. Fortunato, the wine seller in Draynor Village, is taken from The Cask of Amontillado. 2. Koschei the Deathless, who plays a key role in The Fremennik Trials, is taken from Russian folklore. 3. The firebird that appears in the Heroes Quest also seems to have been inspired by Russian folklore. 4. The dart-dodging animation played in the Brimhaven agility arena was obviously inspired by the Matrix series. 5. One of the restless ghosts in Morytania will occasionally say "all your base are belong to us" if the player talks to him. 6. Players can find needles if they search haystacks long enough. 7. One of the NPCs from the Death Plateau quest is named Tenzing. He was probably named after Tenzing Norgay, one of the first people to successfully climb Mount Everest. 8. Players may see a wandering cat named Bob, who gives the text "The Jagex cat" upon examination. A Jagex staff member has stated that Bob is based on a real cat in the Jagex office. In A Tail of Two Cats, the player gets to interact with Bob. 9. Also, the name for the quest A Tail of Two Cats was obviously taken from the 1859 novel A Tale of Two Cities by Charles [bleep]ens. 10. The sea snake youngs give the message "Snake, snake, oh, it's a young snake..." when being examined. It is probably a reference to Badger Badger Badger. 11. The last part of the Rat Catchers quest was inspired by the Pied Piper of Hamelin. 12. There are some similarities between the Kalphite Queen and Metroid Prime. 13. It has been reported that the Chaos Elemental somewhat resembles one of the monsters from Lost. 14. The "Dancing Knights" from the Party Hall are probably ripped from the cult film Monty Python and the Holy Grail. 15. The city of Camelot and many of its inhabitants play important roles in Arthurian legend. 16. The Romeo & Juliet quest is obviously based on the classic play by Shakespeare, except that it has a happier ending and nobody dies. 17. The bakers in Ardougne give the message "So where are the butcher and the candlestick maker?" upon examination. This is a reference to Rub A Dub Dub, a nursery rhyme. 18. One of the songs is called Little Cave of Horrors. It is probably intended as a reference to Little Shop of Horrors. 19. One of the trials in Recruitment Drive involves "dihydrogen monoxide" - perhaps it's a reference to that famous hoax? 20. After the player frees the monkey from the zoo in Monkey Madness, the monkey may start singing The Lion Sleeps Tonight on the journey home. 21. One of the pigs in Draynor suggests the name "mini-pig" when examined. Similarly, some of the baby moles mention "Mini Mole" when examined. These seem to be references to Mini-Me in the Austin Powers series. 22. Some other baby moles give the text "Moley, moley, moley!" when examined. This also seems to be an Austin Powers reference. 23. In issues 5 and 9 of the NPC letters, the Chaos Elemental seems to use fragmented and nonsensical speech. This may be a reference to the thought disorder often associated with schizophrenia. However, some of the Chaos Elemental's speech did seem to "predict" future updates. 24. In Recipe for Disaster, the Awowogei sub-quest involves the three wise monkeys who see, hear, and speak no evil. 25. Players can get the message "This is not the mightiest tree in the forest." by using a herring (raw or cooked) with a tree. This is another reference to Monty Python and the Holy Grail. 26. Ezekial Lovecraft, the fishing shop owner in Witchaven, mentions that his relatives were writers and that his grandfather's name was Howard. This is a reference to H. P. Lovecraft. 27. In the Pirate Pete sub-quest of Recipe for Disaster, the gypsy mentions that her "gypsy-sense" is picking up something. This may be a reference to Spider-Man. 28. During a cut-scene in The Eyes of Glouphrie, an NPC gives the text "Can he build it? Yes he can!" upon examination. This is a reference to Bob the Builder. 29. In a reference to the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, the vaults in the Stronghold of Security have the themes of war, famine, pestilence, and death. 30. The Jekyll and Hyde random event was obviously taken from The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. 31. Players with level 83 construction can add a monster called Rocnar to their oubliettes. This is probably a reference to the rancor, a monster from the Star Wars series. Got it directly from Wiki, donno if it's copyrighted or not... :ohnoes:
