Why does Leliana speak Feralden with an Orlaision accent? The accent must be an affectation but what purpose does it serve?

Err... I was taught German by my parents when I was young, and it is their native tongue. I can affect a German accent but I didn't pick it up naturally just because I knew the language. As for other people, some pick up accents where they live very quickly... others not so much. I know an Irish woman who has lived here ever since she was a teenager and her accent is still very strong.



As for Leliana, she was born and raised in Orlais. She has an Orlesian accent. She could probably choose to disguise her accent if she wished, but she doesn't bother. Clearly she has not picked up the Fereldan accent even though she's speaking the local language.



As for Corinne Kempa, the voice actress, she is a French actress who has been living in London for some time. A good match, I think. I also find her voice sexy as hell, so... yeah. Weird what some people will assume, I guess.
