Oh yeah, I forgot this one:
The Waking Sands as a whole seems based on the Rebel Hideout from FFII:
It's an ordinary-looking building in the middle of a very small city; inside is a secret organization opposing an empire while using "Wild Rose" as its password; the organization is headed by a woman who sends the main character out on missions (Princess Hilda in FFII, Minfilia in FFXIV).
