From the words he uses, probably Cockney-British, but the voice of the guy is SSOOOOOO un-British, that he sounds rediculous. I pump the enter key whenever I have to talk to him, and just hit 1 so I can skip as much of his stupid voiceover as possible.

COOO!!! ARGH! Shutup Shutup Shutup Shutup Shutup Shutup Shutup Shutup Shutup Shutup Shutup Shutup Shutup Shutup Shutup Shutup!!!!!!!

I think in my current game in which my soloer is a Chaotic Neutral Fighter/Mage, I'm gonna cast Hold on him and work him over with the Stilleto of Demarchess...

He's an American cockney.

....my personal favourite is the way he says "ye".

He's worse than Tom Cruise being Irish.

Worse than Kevin Costner being English - and he didn't even put on an accent.

Recognise this line:
"And why should the people follow YOU??"

"...Because... unlike some other Robin Hoods... I can speak with an English accent!"

"Oooh! Ahh!"

lmao

I've noticed that hitting '2' in his initial dialog minimizes the interaction time...
