Treguard spotted Pickle entertaining passers-by in the nearby Forest, and, sensing that with the new outdoor paths Series 4 would soon bring was too much for him to handle alone, enlisted his help with the dungeon.

Actually, I don't know, that's only a theory ;) Unless it was recorded in one of the books (I only own a few) then I don't believe Pickle's origin story was ever recorded. Still, it remains an interesting topic to fanficcers!

Pickle seemed merely arrive in Knightmare castle at the beginning of Season 4, or to put more correctly, was very much at home at the beginnng of Season 4.

I have never read any text explianing exactly why, yet as mentioned, it is fanfictional as to what actually happens.

Yes, he appears in the gamebook section to offer the dungeoneer items he's trading in Level 1, then you have to rescue him at the end of the quest.

In one episode of series 4, he actually appears in the forest and helps the dungeoneer out.

I think that Pickle is a wood elf like Velda, he's no doubt from the same realm and would've served under Arawn at some point.

What about Elita, was there ever any mention of other cavern elves?

There's Velda... she's a warrior elf and never says which realm she's from, so from her appearances and nature, and turf, I'd have guessed she's a cavern elf.

Treguard, however, claims she is a wood elf, so how she got to be the Dungeon is anyone's guess.

She stops Dungeoneers from entering the Elven realms, so maybe the exit they never took is a way out of the Dungeon...

......Or into a wall!

As for the "where did Pickle come from" question, well there was a male elf and a female elf.

Both were very much in love with each other...

;D

I didn't think a genie was appropriate in Knightmare.

Really I thought it was best before Pickle

I think Pickle would've been good as a regular character in series 4 though.

I think Treguard's comment in the first episode of Series 4 is that Pickle was there 'on sufferance'. Though this may say more about Treguard's attitude to the situation than Pickle's.
