I’m really looking for what may have been the driving motivation and reward. The focus is on your personal drive for the interest and what you gained from it.

We can’t have meaningful conversations if people are scared to be honest, so please be authentic, forthcoming, and respectful. Conversely, please respond to others with compassion so that users feel safe enough to be vulnerable.

Same, though I’m the son of a Cuban immigrant so I don’t fully fit into OP’s question… that said, I don’t have any African heritage.

In my D&D homebrew world, the Halfling culture live in a sub-tropical region. I modeled their culture, lifestyle, and traditional fighting techniques of those from Jamaica - particularly the machete martial artists. This is the video that inspired it for me.
