    The female smuggler has a faint one in SWTOR, as does her romance option, Corso Riggs–though I think his is mostly affected because he's a stereotype farmboy.

    I'd like to back my own claim with a clip from The Clone Wars, which is, coincidentally, one of the funniest things in the series:



    The Hutts in general were one of the best things about the show. More Hutts in Rebels, please, and make them extra-slimy.

    Is Dreis from Agamar? Because if not, he should be.


    Sent from a loaner phone with horrid autocorrect. Expect lots of errors.

    According to Wookieepedia, he's from Virujansi.

    It really should be a more common Rim accent, and it would certainly suit a cocky flyboy smuggler type, but we never see it.

    Of all the accents in the movies, I've always loved Nien Nunb's accent. Specifically because it's real. Or, at least the cockpit words were. It's the language Haya and it's translated by the voice actor to be exactly as what his character is supposed to be saying. Really going beyond!

    A fair number of those pilots are from Bestine, right? Maybe it is a Bestine accent.

    Yeah, but do you hear the music when they go into the smuggler dens? It's definitely not Mexican... :p

    Wait, so what and where exactly is this "planet of Scottish squirrels"? Did Brian Jacques* did a brief EU stint at one point without my knowing it...?

    *Anyone out there who's familiar with the Redwall books will probably know that "Scottish squirrels" are the protagonists of Rakkety Tam (2004).

    What?

    That was clearly an Irish accent.

    General Whorm Loathsom had a Scottish accent.

    Oh yeah, you're right. Haven't watched Season 1 or the movie in a while.
