What was the race, class and allignment of the first character that you beat the game with?

Mine was a True Neutral Elven Swashbuckler.

Other characters I have beaten the game with-
Chaotic Neutral Half-Orc Fighter
Lawful Evil Elven Wild Mage
True Neutral Human Druid
Lawful Good Undead Hunter
True Neutral Human Monk (Solo)

Lawful Good Human Cavalier must have been the first one.

Also one with Dwarf Berserker, Halfling Fighter/Thief, another Cavalier and a couple of solos (F/M, R/C, Blade).

Still many games in play ...

My first PC was a plain human mage. I have beaten the game now many times but the most remarkable PCs I had were
a human Paladin/Cavalier - because it was the first PC I took through the whole series
an elven assassin - because I never thought a thief could rock so much
a human fighter/mage - because it started my love affair with dual-classing
a female human stalker - because I gave her the coolest biography I ever thought of (along with special abilities)
-
I still haven't beaten the game with
- a cleric other than Talos
- a barbarian
- a F/M/T
- a halfling
- a gnome
- a Bard (but I'm working on it with a Blade right now)

How are you enjoying the blade? I change the weapon proficiency files a bit so that blades can get 2 slots in weapons rather than 1, they seemed a bit underpowered :/

Elven pure class fighter was mine, this was pre-throne of bhaal too so I only did SoA with him. Fighters get so strong! The first character I completed SoA and ToB with was an elven assasin.

I don't think he's underpowered. The Offensive Spin easily makes up for lacking proficiencies. Also his spellcasting abilities help a lot. It's a bit like a fighter/mage but not so cheesy and he has some nice extra abilities (pickpocketing, HLA bard song when I get there).

Fighters are especially strong with a lot of potions or later on (ToB) with GWW.

Elven theif/mage CN called Alinta. She was meant to be a drow, but she had yellow hair and blue skin, as I knew almost nothing about drow at the time.

Blades underpowered? Bwer-WahHAHAHAHA! They are, in fact, considered one of the more powerful classes. If you know how to... tap their potential for cheese.

My first successful character was a Human Sorcerer. You would laugh at his spell list then. [img]tongue.gif[/img] I still kick myself in the rear from time to time when I ask myself why I chose the spells I did at that time.
