Dogberry = (Queeg-queg/Captain Ahab)Brock Samson + Marv from Sin City^Hellboy+Batou
Basically, I took the idea of an broken sailor from an "exotic" race that people rarely encounter and have a ton of misconceptions about (which I anticipated male Roegadyn to be) looking for something like revenge (Queeg-queg/Ahab), added on a layer of "bro" with a soft side I could play for laughs (Brock Samson), shoved in Marv from Sin City to give him a layer of emotional turmoil and confusion, and put in Hellboy for a sense of duty and a bit of an "average joe down on his luck" attitude in spite of his sometimes frightening demeanor. Throw in Batou from Ghost in the Shell for an emphasis on martial prowess, and you've got Dogberry.
He's basically a play on all of the "big guy" archetypes you see in media while hopefully still managing to be more than the sum of those parts. The "big guy" is an archetype that often goes unexplored as a character. While often played sympathetically and even at times heroically, they are very rarely fully realized characters. I could go on about this further, but I'll spare you all.
