ycleption - 3/5/2007 3:27 PMRandom...Does anybody know where the whole dwarves have Scottish accent thing came from? I used to play a dwarf based heavily on the Norse conception (which Tolkien used for his as well; almost all the names come from the the Voluspa), created a detailed, nuanced background, wrote a significant portion of the game material about dwarves. . . and then everyone said I wasn't roleplaying a dwarf well because I didn't speak in a Scottish accent. *sigh*
