Inspirations for aspects of the Eldar come from different real world ancient civilisations: Ancient Egypt, Celtic, Greece. There are also parallels between Eldar culture and that of feudal Japan, in particular the Samurai. For example, it is explained that "to the Eldar, war is an art." White Dwarf talks of the "Path of the Eldar", much like the "Way of the Samurai" (i.e. Bushido), and the use of Shuriken weapons. Khaine, the god of murder, is also analogous to the Hindu goddess Kali. It is likely the designers wanted to give the impression of an ancient culture to the Eldar.[Needs Citation]
