My first character in BG1 was a ranger, IIRC. But I never finished the game with him because my videocard wasn't compatible with my motherboard back then and the game(s) crashed like every fifteen minutes. I just recently played BG1 through first time, as a fighter.
In BG2 my first character was a Cavalier. Eventually I took him all the way through ToB. Man.. Cavaliers just rock!
