Aren’t drow Australian?
Also lots of spider in both. Now I’m wondering what the Underdark equivalent of a koala is.
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.
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
Oi! We’ve been isekaied to another fuckin world mate. Crikey! I wonder if these feisty crab things are edible?
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.
