Oh, I don't actually know anything more about it than you do. My impression is simply that Varisia is largely populated by Varisians who speak varisian day to day; regardless of what the Chelish colonists might like to imagine. But yeah, that's just my impression.

I just personally dislike the idea of PCs and society in general depending solely on common for everyday communication. I see common as being a rudimentary pidgin that traders and travelers use in a pinch to communicate simple ideas. Treating it as a fully developed language that everyone automatically knows makes being multilingual largely pointless. But that may just be me.
