Keeping it focussed, and since the Mandalorians are taken from the real-world human design, it's redundant to list every media who's taken the same inspiration

All Guardians have certain abilities, some of which are granted by the [[Traveler]], others which may appear more mundane in nature. Thus far, all Guardians have demonstrated some form of high-damage ability (Warlocks/Nova Bomb, Hunters/Golden Gun, Titans/Fists of Havoc), as well as a "grenade-type" ability whose effects vary by class. Additionally, both the Warlock and the Titan are confirmed to have double-jump abilities. The Warlock's ability, "Glide", has only been named and confirmed in writing:<ref name= "Warlock Controls">[http://destinyplayers.com/destiny-warlock-ps4-game-controls/ Warlock controls]</ref>, while the Titan's double-jump ability has been demonstrated during gameplay<ref name="E3 Demo BTS"/>. While it is likely that, in the interests of balanced gameplay, the Hunter has a similar double-jump ability, to-date it remains unconfirmed. What ''has'' been confirmed is that these abilities can be upgraded over time.<ref name= "MMORPG.com Interview with Eric Osborne">http://www.mmorpg.com/gamelist.cfm/game/927/feature/7618/Delving-Into-Bungies-Vision.html</ref>, that they can be used in competetive PvP, and that the abilities demonstrated thus far merely "scratch the surface" of what will be available.<ref>http://www.bungie.net/7_The-Mail-Sack-of-Your-Dreams/en-us/News/News?aid=10937</ref>
