Thread Title : Your Favorite Old Edition Characters

Remember the good old days when there weren't any Feindish half vampire ilithid trolls with six classes running around?  It was just the basic races and clases with the occasional NPC class from Dragon Magazine thrown in for flavor.  

I offer you the opportunity to list your favorite character, their stats, class, level and maybe a bit of their history here.  I'll start...

[1st ed. AD&D]
1)Ragar of Krakenheim, Human Barbarian 8, HP:99 Al:CG
Str:18(99), Int:14, Wis:10, Dex:16, Con:17, Cha: 13, Cml: 14
Bastard Sword +2 GiantSlayer, Bracers of Defense AC6.
Died fighting an aurumvorax.

2)Theoric, Human Paladin, 6 HP:52 Al: LG
Str:17, Int:12, Wis:13, Dex:15, Con:16, Cha:17, Cml:16
Field Plate, Large shield +1, Longsword +1(+2 vs. lycanthropes & shape-changers), decanter of endless water.
Theoric was tasked with leading a rag-tag group of ex-criminals on a quest to retrieve a magical artifact.  It was sort of a 'dirty dozen' themed group where they were all prisoners who faced long terms or execution if they didn't go on the quest.  We played a few sessions and never found the thing, but we had a good time arguing amongst each other.

[2nd ed AD&D]
3)Mordrik Eagleclaw, Mage, 2, HP:7, Al:LN
STR:11, Dex:15, Con:14, Int:16, Wis:12, Cha:10
Staff, dagger
Mordrik was the illegitimate son of the king's court Magician.  He was estranged by his father and sought to prove his worth as a mage.  I played one adevnture with this character and achieved 2nd level when the DM scrapped the campaign.  I never got to use him again.

I had a dude that I brought from OD&D to 2E. 

I used to have is record, but my 8 year sebaticle (spelling?) from the game has left me with many things missing. (Namely all of the OD&D adventures that I bought at Kaybee for 99 cents a pop.Temple of the frog seems to fetch a good price...GONE.) Anyway....

Cornielius Kragg was my guy. Human Fighter with an 18/92 STR, and the rest of the stats are a loss to me. I remember playing him up until 16th or so level. He went from Mystara, to Greyhawk (for 2E) and then to the Realms when everyone wanted to whine about Greyhawk. Sissies. I don't even remember what the complaint was. Oh, no materials available. (remember kiddies...this was pre ebay and pdf days)
