Commoner Adventurer: All stats are 10. You start the campaign at level 0, no class. Throughout the campaign, the characters attain a class based on their actions.
Wrong class for the race: Halfling Barbarians, Half-Orc Wizard, etc. This can be a lot of fun, as instead of having an optimized character that can deal a lot of damage, you have to think through things and come up with strategies. I personally have always liked playing characters that are small that have to use their wits to survive in combat. Oh, I like playing a tank once in a while. Currently, I’m in two different sessions. In one, I’m playing a Dragonborn Cleric that has served as the melee support for the party’s paladin. The other session I’m playing a halfling rogue Soul Knife that rides the barbarian into battle. I have a lot more fun with the Rogue.
