If you had to pick a character and stick to it forever...

What would it be? It can be anything you can do in a standard character creation. And nothing else for eternity! Sure, if you roll a Human and get stats making you eligable for dual classing, that's a permitted option. You're still technically running with the character you rolled, right? Good.
As for me:
Male. Most romance options in BG2. Mostly irrelevant, but you get 3 as male and 1 as female.
Human. For dual class purposes.
Fighter. I suppose any kit could do, (mostly looking at Berserker, right?) but if nothing else, plain Fighter. Because they are IMO the best basis for any dual class. It makes sense to dual class a Fighter into Class X, but less so reversed. It's not impossible and in some cases has merit, like Mage 2 -> Fighter for a little extra mojo, but overall Fighter -> Class X seems more profitable.
True Neutral. No alignment restriction in dual classing.
Stats. I would at the very least have to do an initial roll, where I had to fulfill the bare minimums of all possible dual classes. it would be along the lines of 15, 17, X, 17, 17, 17 after all tomes, so it would be initial scores like 14, 16, X, 16, 14, 16. If aiming for max Constitution, it would have to be a total stat score roll of 94, which doesn't seem like a hard number to reach, even as a Human Fighter. This is, of course, the bare minimum. I'd try to roll higher and at least aim for a decent Strength percentile, because I'm greedy like that.
Yeah, somewhat the generic Abdel Adrian, I suppose. But with some options and replay value, at least.

5 as male, 4 as female.
So, Anomen, Jaheira, Aerie and Viconia. That seems like 4 to me.
Like I said, Anomen, Jaheira, Aerie and Viconia. That seems like 4 to me.
Some players don't like Anomen or Aerie romances, it doesn't mean they don't exist in the game.
Well, they're not options for me. Fine if they are for you. Let's hear about your character with that.
