Some say he was expelled from his last adventuring party after they found out he had been clipping the other adventurers's toenails while they were sleeping.

Some say he was a Noble's Court Wizard, until he was sentenced to death for casting upon his Lord a spell to "shit his pants"

All we know is he’s called the Stig.

I read this in Jeremy Clarkson’s voice before I even read the last line. It’s like my brain knew.

A great twist to this is what I call the "Garak inversion:" they're all true. "Even the lies?" "Especially the lies."

Well known in the red light district (multiple meanings!)

Neat idea.

Kind of similar to Fate's standard game creation, where you go around and come up with how your backstory connects to everyone else. These connections can be invoked for bonuses later.

I had a DM who did something similar. We all had to describe five NPCs that were important to our characters: two friends or family members, two enemies or rivals, and one fate-bonded character who could be friend or foe.

In addition to the RP possiblities, it also gave the DM a ready supply of NPCs to populate the setting.

Let the other players make up the false rumors.

Have them make up the rumors about themselves, but then swap the names to make them about each other

Now, this I like.
