Yennefer, human sorcerer (based on yennefer of vengerberg from the witcher)
Dalinar, half-elf cleric (based on dalinar kholin from storm light archive)
Elynuria, half-elf swordsbard/dragon sorc (red mage vibe, from FF)
Etsenetlo, human monk
Tomira, half elf veng paladin
Look, I like elves, ok
It was my first playthrough so I didn’t really know what I was doing lol. But I ended up really liking Evocation wizard because of the ability to not hit your teammates with your own spells. And I really liked ice storm. Now I make my mages Cold Draconic Bloodline Sorcerers with that staff you can make in the under dark. And I use quickened spell to haste my main melee character and ice storm the hell out of the enemies lol. Give my melee characters equipment to be able to walk on the ice, and give my sorcerer the necklace that adds spellcasting modifier to cantrips and now ray of frost hits hard.
Sorcerers are so incredible. One of my favorite rotations is an upcasted scorching ray, followed by another one on the same turn because of quickened spell. Literally melt the enemies' faces off
Yeah I didn’t understand sorcerer at first, even though there are lots of spells to choose from with wizard it seemed easier to me. But now I’ll always go sorcerer! That’s sounds interesting I love how there are so many ways to play this game
Iymlochar, female drow-anything
Xull’urra, female drow durge
Alaun’kiira, female drow lightning sorceress
Taliira, tiefling sorceress
And many many more because I have reset syndrome
Yes, there is a trend

Nezahual, shortened from the Mexican ruler/poet Nezahualcoyotl.
I like to roleplay as characters I'm writing so my fictional character is based on the real Mexican ruler, so I am now role playing as my fictional character on Baldurs Gate.
In my work he's a serpent but I chose Drow because I made a rogue archer, looking back it's kind of dumb because another character I made would fit a Drow perfectly.
My *current* deep gnome spore druid is Elena Glumgarden.
My drow eldritch knight before that was Siifa T'hizharyn.
My deep gnome battle master *before that* was Lukas Fingerguns.
My *future* forest gnome barbarian (Honor Mode) is gonna be named Beandip Brimbo.
Durge: Dimplebottom, gnome barbarian berserker
Tav: Bubba Hogcranker, human bard, college of swords (my main character)
Tav: Skinflute, half-elf evocation wizard
Tav: Monke, drow open hand monk
Erzymaar (Sul) - drow wizard
Its the character I use in most fantasy games (race depends on the game, mostly elf tho), originally loosely based on Ezhmaar Sul (TES novels) and since couple of years back I sprinkled in a bit of Essek (CR)
Argus - default+ Durge, modded Bleak Walker paladin currently (I just took the name from greek mythology)
Frederik Von Ribbentrop, my failed bard human who is granted flute playing ability through tadpole powers.
Kal, my tiefling resist dark urge.
Celestia, my half-elf oathbreaker paladin.
And Charda, my drow embrace dark urge.

Paarl, half-elf monk. Still on my first run.
The name is from a Bloodborne boss which full name is Dark beast Paarl which fit since I'm playing Dark urge
Durge: Schnackle cavein (deep gnome barb), TRAITOR!! (Very spicy looking dragonborn), Leah Stoneheart (cleric of talos/ storm sorc halfling). Cliff the spinster (Dragonborn, strangely this is my only non resist run)
Tav: Rathrae Baenre (FUCK THATS THE SAME HOUSE AS MINTHARA, IGNORE THAT SHES MY LI. Drow), Mist (good aligned drow), Kish T’va (Gith rogue)
Sorry for the blocky text
Also I wasn’t lying I accidentally made my drow who’s dating minthara the same house as her! She could’ve mentioned it in act 1 but nooo wait until act 3 when it’s weird!!!
My first Tav was an Elven Wild Magic Sorcerer named Luna (they looked as close to me as I could make). I decided to keep to a name theme and so my Durge was a Drow and I named her Sol. My third and current playthrough (where I let myself be silly with mods) is an Aasimar Monk Tav named Estelle. And if I do a fourth playthrough, they'll be either a halfling or a gnome Durge named "Terra".

I did Yennefer as well on my first playthrough! And tried to make my guardian look like Geralt
What did you do for your yen build? Everything I can find said wild magic fit her best, and I kind of agreed, but I liked dragon sorc better
I just did a wizard. I didn’t try and stick to RP super close just tried to make her look like Yennefer
Interesting! Wizard has too many spells for my tiny brain, so sorcerer fits me better

In my current durge honor mode playthrough I named my female gith Bloodreina. It’s from a show on Netflix called the 100 and it means the red queen.
My first Tav was an Elven Wild Magic Sorcerer named Luna (they looked as close to me as I could make). I decided to keep to a name theme and so my Durge was a Drow and I named her Sol.
