IF we end up playing an Orlesian in Tevinter in the next Dragon Age game, I hope the VA have genuine French accents. That's a big part of why Leliana is such an awesome character, her accent is authentic. Which are the non-authentic?

Which means that there is a city state the citizens of which would consider Oghren a weak drinker, and then get up the next morning because the Exalted March againist them has to be turned back by noon - the rest of the day is dedicated to work and drink. That sounds like Wycome, the revelry capital of Thedas that is the second largest importer of Antivan wine after Orlais, which is some achievement when you consider the difference in size between the two states. You have to hand it to Clan Lavellan, they chose the right place to be associated with, although it could be that the Dalish now have a drink problem in that location.

As for your concerns, I think it is highly unlikely we would be forced to play an Orlesian who would stick out like a sore thumb up in Tevinter. It is far more likely that they will ditch links to the south entirely and start afresh with natives to the north if they are going to give you origins other than Tevinter itself. The only possible link would be if you start off as a slave but even then I think they would avoid having a background and VA that might only be appealing to a minority of people, particularly as in the interests of equality they would have to have a male and female VA with the same sort of accent.

Origins: The first game, so there was no pattern yet. Majority of the game took place in Ferelden. II: Hawke is a Fereldan. Majority of the game took place in Kirkwall located in Free Marches. Inquisition: They have four race choices, but they all come from one corner of Free Marches or another. Part of game is in Ferelden, but we've already have that. The new country we explore is... and I'm not writing it easily... ugh... Orlais. A country with very specific accent and hideous fashion (two reasons I might actually consider helping Solas with blowing sky up the... sky. Yeah.). Am I the only one who is utterly terrified by this??? I'm trying to be optimistic, but as we all know, Cycle cannot be broken! We play Bioware's game, because they allow it, and we will play as protagonist with background depending on where the last game took place, because they demand it! And we should all be grateful!The only way to survive this baptism of fire is to find a talented actors who can actually make orleasian accent sound badass. And acceptance that Qunari abs making fashion is superiour to that horrific dress noblewomen wear in Winter Palace (that abomination that is covering half of face by itself, not even counting masks). The letter should be easy, but the first thing sounds impossible. I'm scared as a kid in the middle of dark wood right now. I need a hug. terrified? No. Mildly concerned? Maybe. Intrigued? You betcha. Wondering how I can role play a bad arse Orlesian
