Scottish?
naw, mate, westie.
Aussie, come on man the clue was the OP!
I mean, it looks more stereotypically Scottish than Australian to me, but then I'm neither so what do I know
I thought they were having a stroke.
bachelor's in recent runes from the university of fourecks
Oi! We’ve been isekaied to another fuckin world mate. Crikey! I wonder if these feisty crab things are edible?
Also true if Eddy from Steven King's Dark Tower was Australien
Australien; an Australian from another world.
It's something that bothers me about bg3. Everyone is way too posh
Most of the posh sounding characters are posh, or at least formally educated. Gale is a wizard (clear enunciation for spellcasting), Astarion ws a magistrate, Wyll is the son of a duke, Minthara is a princess.
Karlac and Halsin aren't posh and don't sound posh. I'm not sure about Lae'zel, but that just leaves Shadowheart. Maybe Shar has a thing for accents?
Elves are just posh by default.
Imo many NPCs are posh sounding too. Just my ear, I'm not telling anyone not to play it.
Maybe I've just played too much Shadowrun with too many Australians, but lots of them ended up speaking like that, even when they weren't meant to be Australian! :)
Also Urdli in the Secrets Of Power trilogy was very much an Australian mage.
I don't remember him speaking like that though! :P
clone wars and farscape teach us that oceanic (oceaniac?) accents come from space so it's probably a character option in one of the spelljammer books
Back in the day, I was running a game with friends. They both decided to play precocious kids, with a lot of power (magical and family) but in need of extra guidance.
So, they had a DMPC that was from Maine, and had the stereotypical accent like Fred Gwynne had in Pet Sematary. So he's talking about systems of magic, gods and spirits in that Mainer drawl.
We ended up playing pretty much every night for a month or two, and with me doing the accent so much, I had trouble shaking the accent irl.
It was a great fucking campaign tbh. We had a shit ton of fun just rampaging around and wrecking shit with their pair of grossly wealthy and grossly over powered siblings and their "uncle". The two kids were British, so those cheesy accents were in play, and they were from a posh witch family, which makes this post extra funny for me.
Aren't drow Australian?
They do come from a land down under...
Also lots of spider in both. Now I'm wondering what the Underdark equivalent of a koala is.
Flumph!
Always trust a flumph!
Bulettes, obviously
Hook horrors.
They only have drop bears.
