Since it is free city states are we looking at something Italian?  Though Kirkwall sounds sorta Germanic.

Even if your character is from Kirkwall, that doesn't mean that that is in the Free Marches.

I suspect, personally, and this is pure speculation, that Kirkwall was in Fereldan, and when your character escaped the Blight, he ends up in the Free Marches.

I'm going to guess that it's slightly Germanic.

That was the accent of that northern kingdom where the Grey Wardens had their HQ though right?

I take it nobody here really knows much about the Free Marches but hopes they have a Celtic accent.

Actually if you look at the map of Thedas you can see that Kirkwall is indeed in the Free Marches.

As for the accent the people of the Free Marches have, it could be anything but I'd guess it would be slightly German. I think the Free Marches are based on the Holy Roman Empire which was an institution of allied independent German states.

Kirkwall sounds very Scottish in influence. Geographically it would make sense to be the lowland countries (Netherlands, Belgium), but just from name it feels Scottish. Plus Dutch accents for a whole game would sound weird after a while...

German possibly Swedish/Norwegian would nice, something a bit more rugged than what we've seen in Origins would be nice.

Scottish. Ever since I saw the name Kirkwall, I've hade this Braveheart vibe going for DA2.
