I've not read any of the faqs or guides to creating characters. I've gotten most of my ideas off of boards such as this one. My current project of a solo Deep Gnome Monk was a challenge between two posters on another board. I thought it sounded like an interesting challenge and the one playing the game bailed at the Fortress. IMO, the best way to create a party is to work up the stats and post them here and ask for advice. You don't always have to take it, but it will atleast give you some additional thought. Most people on here will give you advice and more importantly will tell you why they would choose A over B.
