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

Wait until you find out where the Pirates' accent comes from.

Pittsburgh.

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

I'd argue for Ruhr, but only for the associations of mining and industry common to both...
