Dwarves are always stereotyped as drunken Scotsmen. Does it improve

This analogy works even better if you stereotype orcs as muslims and goblins as europoors.

Unfortunately, all the real RPGs are made in the USA, and we only divide you guys into two groups:

It's time to stop this.
>Does it improve elves any if I stereotype them as being English?
No, not at all.

Orcs are French, gobbos are Germanics/Nordics.
Fits better with historic English conflicts desu

Halflings would be Irish then.

Would gnomes be Italian?

Humans, as always, would be Amerifags, HFY and all.

In Tolkien, it's the Hobbits who are English. And dwarves are actually more like Jews than Scots.

Honestly I think elves work best as stereotypical Frenchman. Elitist, melodramatic, hipsterish, pretentious, cowardly and effeminate.

I could maybe see britdwarves working, though. Strict, easily offended control freaks prone to moral panic on end, stoic yet kooky intellectuals on the other, and a big ol' boisterous working class in the middle. Very, very strong mutual love-hate relationship with elves.

Dwarves aren't always Scottish. They're often just Northern British, so Yorkshire as well. There's good reason for this though, Tolkien as somewhat influenced by Northern mining culture. I suppose they could be Welsh also. Gimli in the Peter Jackson films kind of dips into many Northern accents.

If this is the case then I suppose you could juxtapose this with the Elves refinement and portray them as Southerners.

To be honest, nearly ever Fantasy race has some connection to a part of the British Isles. The rest of the world must be butthurt.

To be fair, both of those are probably true at the same time. Britain is one of the most classist countries in Europe if not the most classist.

>>51579513
Being an ex-brit in the US, I can say this is true. There is a heavy emphasis on class. Owning any amount of land is unheard of outside of the upper middle class.

The Middle Class of America is far closer to the British Upper Working Class. Middle Class in the UK typically has at least the first child privately educated throughout his entire education.

I tend to make my dwarves Welsh, but that's because I am Welsh, and Pratchett did much the same thing (with his Copperhead dwarves).

Otherwise accents are everywhere.

Angles = Andals

If Elves are English does that make Leprechauns Irish?

Hogwash. Tolkien himself said he based his Dwarves on Semitic peoples.
