    Actually Draconic is Spanish cuz Celestial is Latin, and Elvish is French cuz they snooty (also a romance language). Dwarves can be Portuguese, as a little treat :3

      French sounds incredible with a demon voice. There’s an entire cartoon series, Wakfu, where there’s a demon talking sword and he’s great

        My last DM got mad at me and almost kicked me out of the group because I wanted to create a rogue mage warrior priest with a backstory that he was a mexican immigrant names Jose.

          I did a salt marsh campaign that I themed like Louisiana bayou country. I had a whole society of reclusive swamp gnomes with Cajun French accents. I still miss those guys. They were cool and spooky.

                  The problem wasn’t even Jose, it was your refusal to pick a class.

                    I’m not going to say that affecting an accent for a language one doesn’t speak is inherently racist…but it can get there pretty fast.

                        Brazilian Portuguese is too “melodic” for abyssal, but some European Portuguese accents can work.

                          In the game I’m playing, goblins have thick New York accents. If my creepy-ass lizard person dies, I might switch to that, or a Nordic elf with a thick Swedish accent.

                              I thought the accent for the orc in solo leveling really enhanced the experience.

                                        I’ve always been a fan of that trope. I like to do a Brooklyn goblin from time to time.
