It also bears a close resemblance to the {{wp|The NeverEnding Story (film)|movie}} depiction of Falkor, a character from {{wp|The NeverEnding Story}}, a german novel by {{wp|Michael Ende}}. It is further referenced by the fact that like Falkor, Drampa lives in mountains, is peaceful and never wants to make enemies unless with those who are threats to his friends, and is friends with children.
