        I always pick a character from a movie to play characters in my campaigns. For example, I might decide this dragonborn librarian is being played by Zorg from the Fifth Element, so he's going to talk with a slight west Texas twang. Makes deciding what accent to use pretty easily, and gives me a canned personality to boot. (My fallback for making the table regret talking to an NPC is Dick Van Dyke's terribly-accentented chimney sweep in Mary Poppins.)

          My world draws inspiration from maaaany real life cultures and I'm sure some people would be offended by our interpretations of them. For us draconic is based in Finnish, and giant is based in Norwegian.

            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.
