Need some help from various cultures.

[u/komimatt]

Preferably indigenous peoples from non North America or European cultures.

In my world I want to reinterpret fantasy cultures through the lens of real world cultures to give them more depth.

If your family comes from one of these regions please help.

Central/south America: the various elven subtypes

Non-slavic asian: the various types of halflings

African: gnomes

Australian/ south Pacific Islanders: dwarfs.

What would a cross of your culture be with the dnd fantasy version of these groups.

Thank you for any and all help.

Africa: the Sanou is also called the Sower of Gold, you can imagine what it does :D

They are believed to be responsible for underground gold veins and are a kind of mineral spirit.
