CONFESSION:
My GenX aunt who loves video games says Dorian reminds her of Prince Barin from the Flash Gordon movie she grew up with, while my uncle (My aunt's paternal twin) said Dorian is going to look like Ming when he gets old. And so I watched the movie and I can't unsee some things now and Ming's robes do look like something a Tevinter magister would wear. I have to admit the soundtrack is amazing though.

The always entertaining Brian Blessed as Prince Vultan, leader of the Hawkmen (no, NOT them guys from Thanagar) in the 1980 film Flash Gordon.
Blessed's over-the-top performance, and the overall costume design, were the few bright spots in this otherwise dreadful film.
