He has a northern Xylen accent. It’s an alien language, so it’s kind of difficult to actually describe it, but it sounds somewhat like Russian and Pashto mixed together with an assortment of throaty clicking sounds. The best I can describe his accent as when speaking English is kind of Russian sounding for the most part, but it definitely could be distinguished as it’s own accent because of the clicking noises. He also sometimes finds it difficult to pronounce certain words and phrases despite knowing how to.
I was reading last night/earlier today about American/British accents and thought about how interesting they were, so show me characters that have some sort of distinct accent or dialect! Doesn't matter from where.
This thread isn't to make fun of anyone or perpetuate stereotypes, btw, but just to discuss. :>
In-universe, he has a very distinctive accent due to the fact that his dialect of Low Realm is 1. really weird and includes tone altering meaning subtly and 2. associated almost exclusively with farmers from a very specific village/surrounding land. I do not, however, know how this would actually affect his speech because there's just not enough info on how the languages sound, because nobody who is trying to get their books released this century is going to make a full conlang for a tabletop book.
Out of universe i tend to say the rough equivalent of his accent in English is probably super-regional rural Irish ones.
Goldtooth has a Scottish accent. But like... specifically the pirate type. I also have a couple Brits here, a Transylvanian here, another Brit right here, this man and his brother both have... I think either Brooklyn or New Yorker accents, not sure. Snow is a kinda intimidating Russian owl lady, and I feel like Cashmere would have a faint Southern drawl to his voice.
He's english and originally has an english/british accent but he's been in the states for a long time (and has mimicked the American accent) so his original accent pretty much faded away. There are still some words which would be pronounced in his original accent but to others he sounds American.
Roxanne has a thick southern Texas accent naturally, but can change it due to her being a voice actor!
Naturally Mac has a British accent due to the place he was raised in, but after he moved to the little country town he lives in now, he started faking a southern American accent in the public to be more relatable to the folk he scams. (Delilah’s idea)
Although it’d probably be realistic for him to have lost the British one, especially after 10+ years of living where he’s at now, this is my world and I decide the wacky logic so he still technically has it. He often uses it at home, around people he knows, or (comedically) slips back into it on accident.
a lot of my eklon ocs (my own species) have either French or Italian accents, since their kingdom's first language is called Ekkacani and can sound like either language. Lucas had a thick French accent but it faded over the years with him speaking English and being out of the kingdom, his voice claim is Stromae who is a French artist. Eden is also an eklon from the same kingdom but he has an Italian accent, his voice claim is Måneskin
Xiulan has an Australian accent, Rassler's is German, and December's is British
one of sasha's parts has a vague transatlantic accent but with a modern vocal fry. it used to just be the transatlantic accent alone, which they never even learned how to properly do, so they stumble over it a little too
otherwise they like... don't have an accent at all because the way they talk is so different
The majority of my OCs actually have accents, but Tage was born and raised in Sweden before he moved to Alaska to be with his wife, so he has a very thick Swedish accent and even stumbles while speaking English at times.
