The Lunarians
In 1776, draughtsman Filippo Morghen published The Suite of the Most Notable Things Seen by Cavaliere Wild Scull, and by Signore de la Hire on Their Famous Voyage from the Earth to the Moon. The fantasy recounts the journey of the title characters as they leave Earth and travel to the Moon. Among the inhabitants of the Moon are people who smoke tobacco and bear a curious resemblance to certain Native Americans.

Lunarians reside far from the terrestrial world, making their homes among the alien forests and marshlands of the lunar surface. They have little skill with metalworking, but Lunarians have mastered the arts of agriculture and horticulture. They cultivate all manner of useful plants, including the giant pumpkins into which they carve their homes. These pumpkins are as sturdy as brick, but so light they can float or water and can be suspended from slender tree branches without fear of collapse.
For every 20 Lunarians, there will be an additional 2nd-level fighter who acts as a leader. For every 40 Lunarians, there will be an additional 4th-level fighter war leader. In their lair, typically a village near or on water, there will be a chieftain who is either a 7th-level fighter (50% likely), 6th-level cleric (30% likely), or 5th-level magic-user (20% likely). This chieftain has a retinue of guards comprised of 2-8 4th-level fighters.
