I've been brainstorming on a D&D campaign using Saltmarsh as the home base but set in a region similar to the Caribbean (lots of islands, tropical/tropical savanna climate).
I always try to find imagery when working on a campaign both for my own inspiration but also to set the stage for the players. However, I'm struggling with picturing what a medieval settlement in a tropical setting would look like. There isn't really any "medieval" architecture in the Caribbean; the earliest European settlements were from the 1500s.
It's certainly easy enough to find images of Port Royal from Pirates of the Carribean and call it a day.
But I was wondering if there are places more historically accurate that would serve as good examples? Thanks!
