Inspirations

Game of Thrones
Game of Thrones and it's idea of Houses was part of the reason for House Nightshade's existence. This is also the primary reference (other than real life china) for Swampia's culture and history.

Teen Wolf
The kanima is from Teen Wolf, and many other aspects of the shapeshifter is based on Teen Wolf. Teen Wolf was also one of the first inspirations. Werecoyotes are almost completely similar to their Teen Wolf counterparts. Berserkers are from Teen Wolf. Nogitsune and Kitsune are from Teen Wolf. So are werejaguars. Banshees are a mixture of the Irish mythology and the Teen Wolf version. The Oni are from Teen Wolf. Chimeras are partially based on their Teen Wolf counterpart. Werechameleons are a creation from Teen Wolf, yet they are slightly different from their Teen Wolf counterparts, as Werechameleons can only use their powers when in trouble.

The Vampire Diaries
While many of the actors have called this show strange, it needs to be noted that the "heart-rip" rule is pulled from The Vampire Diaries. As well as the idea of "Originals." Moonlight Rings are also from The Vampire Diaries.

The Elder Scrolls
The whole world the RP takes place in is based on The Elder Scrolls.

The Witcher
Some different creatures and methods of killing said creatures comes from The Witcher.

Dragon Age
Dalish Elves are a Dragon Age creation.

Mortal Kombat
The design for Max Nightshade in Kanima form in Kanima is the Saurian from MKX Mobile. Some different realms are based on the ones that are in the Mortal Kombat universe. However, they do seem to take some certain aspects of an alternate reality. Similar to a Marvel alternate universe. The One are partially based on their Mortal Combat counterparts.

Until Dawn
The wendigo is partially based on the Until Dawn rendition and the Teen Wolf rendition.

Shadowhunters
Magnus Bane and Sebastien are from Shadowhunters.
