What inspires you when creating and worldbuilding your deva species?

Basic answer is whatever media I’m big into, but I think Zelda was the blueprint for me, having first picked up OoT at like, 3, and it permanently altered me LOL. I love high fantasy settings, WoW really made me put a foot forward into making this world due to dissatisfaction in blizzard and their writing decisions at times, especially regarding smallfolk. I think being an anthropology major also played a lot into wanting to make a fantasy world that is done hopefully, more respectfully than others. The variance of human culture is really amazing, and being able to represent that in a fantastical way is a cool thing to me, while keeping things free to hopefully encourage those interested from any genre ☺️
