Peturd Posted October 19, 2021 Report Share Posted October 19, 2021 I’m no lore expert or anything. Just a quick list. For sure British: Dreamer, McCabe, Cooper, Elijah Borgman, firebranded Maybe British: Hoffman, at least some Oxfordian mages, Dashel, most guards, many generic minions like showgirls or journalist ones, Vogel, the captain, midnight stalker, dead dandies, Mortimer, the nanny Definitely not British: English Ivan 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adran Posted October 19, 2021 Report Share Posted October 19, 2021 12 hours ago, Mr Oogie Boogie said: Mcmourning is voiced as irish on tbe tales from.malifaux and the name is irish I would have said the name was Scottish rather than Irish, although there is a Celtic overlap. Mc is Scottish, the Irish would be O'. It might help I read all the stories rather than heard them, so I'm not basing it on what accents some one else can do, who isn't formally connected to wyrd anyway. EDIT - I'm Wrong. O' is Irish, but means Grandson of rather than Son of. The Irish word for Son of was Mac, and it was more likely to be abbreviated to Mc in Ireland than Scotland, but both Mc and Mac exist in both nations. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
