 ===Origin===
-Espathra appears to be based on an {{wp|ostrich}}. Based on its appearance and name in every language, it also seems to take inspiration from the Egyptian queen {{wp|Cleopatra}}. The connection between ostriches, psychic powers, and Egyptian motifs may ultimately reference {{wp|Maat}}, the personification of truth in ancient Egyptian mythology whose symbol was the ostrich feather. The feathers on Espathra's head may be inspired by a {{wp|nemes}} or a {{wp|mantilla}}.
