[QUOTE="mhacdebhandia, post: 1715907, member: 18832"] I don't, despite being a pretty fair mimic. The times when accents and altered voices have come up in our games have usually seen them used for comedic purposes. Last week a DM ran an hour-long game with an actual plot that he whipped up in the time it took three players to create their PCs, and added to the frantic, humourous feel by doing a terrible Irish accent and encouraging the players to do the same. In one campaign, a PC indicated that he was speaking in Goblin by adopting an exaggerated Swedish accent (which sparked off a long discussion about mapping D&D languages to real-world languages). "Oh, no! Zis deer, it iz too large to fit in ze cave! Someone, come out and help me cut it up!" Two goblins come out, get killed. "Oh, zis bison, it iz still too big!" I'm amazed it worked. ;) [/QUOTE]
