Uhhh it's pretty typical for dwarves to sound vaguely Scottish isn't it

That's always irked me. Dwarves are a Germanic myth. They should have Germanic accents.

At one of my LARPs, we use German for Dwarvish. Given that somehow, Dwarves are a niche race, German language proficiency doesn't come into play with a frequency that would, say, make accents relevant. However, in discussions with someone who is quite linguistically and culturally in tune with German speakers, we now can't agree on whether we'd have the accent be Swiss, Austrian, Bavarian or Ruhr German
