    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.

    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.

                    Infernal is Korean, Elvish is Finnish, Dwarvish is Icelandic, Abyssal is Spanish, the Elemental Languages are Croatian, Serbian, Bosnian and Montenegrin, while Gnomish is Farsi. Come at me, Bitches!

                          Gnomish should be more artificial. Esperanto.

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

                                Esperanto is more like Common. A language that everyone speaks, more or less, can only be something from an imperialist power or a neutral ground created for that.

                                    Its funny how Michael Meyers decided trolls are Scottish and Scottish people are kind of ok with it.

                                          Oh absolutely, Common is always Esperanto in my games with something like its history mapped onto whatever world I’m running. That leaves space for regional languages to be everything else.
