just curious, but how many people take the first roll they're given by the random generator as opposed to how many sit there and roll stats for 2 hours?

Along those lines, do you try to optimize your party, or do you keep in character and role-play the interactions?

I've seen a lot of posts here that deal with stat rolls, party compositions, and other subjects, and most deal with attaining perfection in one way or another.

I was just wondering if anyone ever plays a clumsy Halfling Thief, or a 9 INT mage, basically the accidental hero type. I mean, in all good fiction, the real heroes don't set out to become heroes, the mantle is thrust upon them, and their perseverance is what makes their struggles heroic. I guess the point is to ask yourself this: does your character have a flaw? If not, then he/she isn't very heroic.
