• George 'Flashman' Flashar

Famous for his quote 'I zon't know if we have enouf containerz to tranzport all Vietnameze to Sapa'' and his infamous cock-up of forgetting to switch his GPS from nautical miles to kilometers while setting a run, Flashman is the ultimate organizer. After escaping the Nurenberg Trials, he settled in Vietnam after some major plastic surgery. He still is suing the clinic for good reasons. Flashman has been involved in various other scams, notoriously the Mekong Interhash Hanoi and the great Post-lube Vietnam of the Interhash in 2006, after which he could retire.

• Marc 'Osaka Cock' Keats

Famous for his 'Marital Arts' movies, the King of Akido starred in many a Japanese production. We guess you will recognize him when seeing his 'mosaiced' tools. Growing up in the slums of Osaka after being expelled from his native Canada, OC picked up hashing at an early age. Holding a black-belt in Origami, he now tries to make a living being 'Hash Banker' after roaming the streets of Hanoi as a shoe-shine boy.

• Bert 'Van Dyke' Sterling

  
  

Currently released on bail, Van Dyke fled the Netherlands in pursuing his dream, just not to be there. While not drinking beer, Van Dyke 'ocasionally' manages to persuade members of the opposite sex to be introduced to the Brotherhood of Hash. The Horizontal Hash Initiation Ritual is something he invented, while his victims think it's all part of it. On In! Thanks Gispert!
