    They may be partially inspired by the Tuska, a race of humanoid walruses from the ThunderCats cartoon franchise.
    The term "Silap Inua" is a reference to the Inuit concept of Inua.
    Their giant stone heads are based on the moai statues of Easter Island.
    Some quests[citation needed] are inspired by the poem "The Walrus and the Carpenter" found in Lewis Carroll's Through the Looking-Glass.
    In the game Animal Crossing, Wendell the Walrus (a humanoid walrus who greatly resembles the tuskarr) forms his opinion of the player based on the kind of fish the player brings him. Wendell will not give the player any paintings, nor will he pay any attention to them (except for a few mumbles), unless they bring him a fish — which is his favorite food. This trait is nearly identical to the non-canon Lands of Mystery's description of tuskarr judging outsiders based on the fish they present.
    The word Tuskar itself is a river in Russia.

    When a mod says to stop talking about real life races, it might be smart to listen.. Time to move on.
