===Origin===
===Origin===
Dhelmise appears to be a cluster of {{wp|seaweed}} holding together the {{wp|anchor}} and a {{wp|ship's wheel|helm}} of a wrecked {{wp|ship}}. Its behaviour may be a reference to two famous captains in classic literature, {{wp|Captain Ahab}} the main protagonist in {{wp|Herman Melville}}'s {{wp|Moby-Dick}} that dies tied to his own harpoon while trying to kill a whale, and the captain of the {{wp|ghost ship}} Demeter, that in {{wp|Bram Stoker}}'s {{wp|Dracula}} is found tied to the helm of the ship after being drained by the protagonist.  
Dhelmise is based on a cluster of {{wp|seaweed}} holding together the {{wp|anchor}} and {{wp|ship's wheel|helm}} of a wrecked {{wp|ship}}. Conceptually, it may be based on various legends of {{wp|ghost ship}}s, such as the ''{{wp|Flying Dutchman}}'', a ghost ship cursed to eternally sail the seas. Dhelmise's behaviour may be a reference to two famous captains in classic literature: {{wp|Captain Ahab}}, the main protagonist in {{wp|Herman Melville}}'s ''{{wp|Moby-Dick}}'' that dies tied to his own harpoon while trying to kill a whale; and the captain of the ghost ship ''Demeter'', that in {{wp|Bram Stoker}}'s ''{{wp|Dracula}}'' is found tied to the helm of the ship after being drained by the protagonist.  


The type of seaweed it is based on is possibly the ''{{wp|Codium fragile}}'', also known as "dead man's fingers". Dhelmise's concept as a seaweed-based monster is reminiscent of the works of {{wp|William Hope Hodgson}}, particularly his {{wp|Sargasso Sea Stories}}. It may also draw inspiration from {{wp|Giant squid|giant}} and {{wp|colossal squid}}s, which are preyed upon by sperm whales.
