In the beginning was Tolkien… and wargaming and historical reenactment and other ingredients in the gallimaufry that made
Dungeons & Dragons. D&D inspired other TTRPGs (tabletop role-playing games), which in turn inspired yet more novels, movies, comics, and other media. (Of course, others have written at length about D&D’s cultural influence you may want to take a look here and here for further reading).
