Actually, I've never soloed at all, not really. I've started 2 Solo games:

1) Thief, I forget if he was a Human or an Elf. If Human, he was going to be Dualed to Mage at some point. He got pretty far into Chapter 3, but after killing his 30th Gnoll he got kinda fed up with Backstabbing. The only item that he didn't have was the Boots of Speed, which were waaaaay off in the distance, and would only have meant....faster Backstabbing.

2) I rolled an amazing 96 on a Half-Elven Conjurer, but trying to make one's way through the first few levels as a solo Mage with no Wands or summons is one hell of a pain in the ass. He finally crashed and burned against the Flesh Golems in the cave, stopped dead in his tracks by their accursed Magic Resistance.
