I've created at least fifty or sixty characters, a quarter of those have been on this site. Here's a few that i've managed to save overtime in no particular order. More to come :3
I recently wrote a post introducing two british characters, both of them speak in english accents. The RP is currently in a period where all of the members have creative control over the posts and a bunch of us have been adding NPC's simply because it makes the story as well as writing much more fun.



In my opinion the two characters somewhat added a little bit of variety due to their uptight, no nonsense intellectual attitude, where as the other characters are all eccentric, silly and generally cheery. The accent wasn't necessary, but I feel like it helped distinguish not only the way they sounded and appeared from the other characters but also their personality.I think effectively making a character seem unique or different from other characters solely depends on the context of the story at the time as well as the other characters. If Landon and Yves spoke like the rest of the characters, they would probably come off as narcissistic jerks, however because of their english accent's they instead come off as intellectual snobs.

Is this stereotypical? No. At least, not in the context of this story, which takes place in a world where tree's talk and donuts dance. England doesn't even exist in this story, but the accents distinguish the characters effectively because they are currently the only ones that speak in english accents.

TL;DR in my opinion writing and giving characters accents being a good idea depends on the context of the story. Does it make sense for this character to have an accent? Does it effectively distinguish your character from the others? What accent is he/she/it speaking in? All depends on the context, heh.
