[QUOTE="Stormonu, post: 8615281, member: 52734"] I actually took a lot from Stargate and Star Wars, with dabbles of Star Wars and Battlestar Galactica throw in (adding Expanse ideas recently). All twisted to fit in a high fantasy setting. My Neogi are similar to DS9 Ferengi, but a lot more menacing and willing to deal with slavery. The elves are a mix of Vulcan arrogance and Romulan paranoia (and can cloak their ships...), and the goblinoids are very Klingon. The Mind Flayers are shades of Stargate's Goa'uld. I kinda see Giff as a mix of Star Trek's Tellarites and Andorians - loud, argumentive and with a need to blow stuff up. Hadozee I use as a mix of Planet of the Apes supremists (the old 60's versions) on one side and Rafiki on the other (a sort of Skeksis/UrRu split), and I have included Warforged as a sort of Borg/Cybermen collective with elements that have broken off and "joined the side of light". I do like the inclusion of The Lady of Pain as a Cenobite-style character - gonna steal that! [/QUOTE]
