Trivia[]
Origin[]
Espathra is based on an ostrich with traits of the Egyptian queen Cleopatra. The fact that it is an ostrich with psychic powers and Egyptian traits could possibly be inspired by the Egyptian goddess Ma'at, who was the personification of truth and whose symbol was the ostrich feather. The feathers on its head resemble a nemes.
Etymology[]
Espathra is derived from "ESP", "telepathy", and "Cleopatra".
