Does this mean that Bandos's species' culture is Russian?

Bandosian culture draws inspiration from Prussian history; parts of what used to be Prussia now sit in a host of countries in that region. Nosorog is rhinoceros in a number of countries in that part of the world, including Russia.
I originally went with nashorn, then nasarag, but nosorog just felt more like a Bandosian word, more guttural.
The Warforge itself also takes a lot of cues from Mesoamerican history - things like the ball game, flower wars, arena sacrifices, 'megahitter'/macuahuitl, etc - not Bandosian culture as a whole, just the culture of that particular place.
Hope that's of interest. It's all just a starting point, though. Taking things wholesale is less interesting.
