==Trivia==

*Unlike his contemporaries, longtime ''Nintendo Power'' staff writer (and current Nintendo of America localization manager) Alan Averill never had a photo of him printed in the magazine; instead, he was represented by a plush Slime doll.

*The internet MMORPG ''Kingdom of Loathing'' has a monster called Irritating Series of Random Encounters which is a group of 8 slimes. It is a reference to the random encounters of most RPG games.

*In an interview, series creator [[Yūji Horii]] revealed that his inspiration for this enemy was some "slime-looking enemy" (possibly the creeping crud from the ''Wizardry series'').<sup>[http://www.joystiq.com/2010/07/10/yuji-horii-explains-the-dragon-quest-slimes-origin]</sup>

*Issue 277 of ''Nintendo Power'' featured a Slime in the Star Power section, where the "gooey blue mascot" had its career as one of many "hapless punching bags" charted, as well as its physiology analyzed. The section also showcased a handful of other types of Slimes, such as the [[Metal Slime]] and [[Slime Knight]].

==Notable Slimes==

*[[Rocket]] - the heroic slime the player uses in Rocket Slime.
