I generally spend more points than I should on intelligence, because I love skills, and I hate playing a character who isn't smart... usually.

I definitely lean towards more dextrous, quick characters rather than burly ones, but that applies to everything from DnD to videogames to which movie characters I like.

I usually make elves, but I've also made humans and a halfling.

Most of my characters are good in one way or another. I almost never go on the lawful axis, because I hate lawful stupid.
