Okay, that part's not unusual I guess. The counter-stereotypical aspect was that she was part of secret gnome network plotting to prevent a fiend-pocalypse and was therefore in Waterdeep to recruit beasts and orphan children as intelligence sources. It was unfortunately just a plain published adventure and the DM didn't have time for background details, so her paranoia was never fully fleshed out in play. I still want to work on a homebrew gnome Illuminati/Obsidian Order, though.
In my current campaign I'm playing as a Goblin Bard. He's really flamboyant and wears a huge goofy looking hat that he's absolutely convinced makes him taller. He's basically so colorful and cartoonish that he's generally allowed into towns without too much trouble from the local guards.
Mountain dwarf wizard, school of nope (Abjuration). He was focused on shutting down that sissy elf magic one way or another. I played him as an ex soldier that saw too many allies fall to the magic of the Drow before devoting himself to magic and with 20 in both strength and int he had options, counterspell, dispel magic or breaking concentration with his warhammer or just restraining a enemy mage with grappling. He'd us any method to overpower the enemies magic users.
I love playing random race/class combos (loxodon rogue, for instance). The blond haired, blue-eyed human male paladin, while fun, has become a bit stale.
I've made a Warforged Druid named Carver (Circle of the Moon, which I still need to buy) that is essentially just a left-over relic from an old, dusty Drow craftsman. Carver really likes to carve wooden figures and turning into gnarled wooden versions of various animals found in the Underdark. Just need a group to play him with at some point.

Whomsoever reads this: you matter, you are loved, and I wish you the best. Griffith did nothing wrong.
I played a Water Genasi Four Elements Monk with a Charlatan background. Not at *all* an optimized character, but he was to fun to play. He was essentially a parody of those guys in the mall who keep trying to push nail buffs and other crap. I'm pretty sure he managed to push several bottles of "Hobgoblin Ointment".
OH! And I once convinced my boyfriend to play a Kobold Conquest paladin (of Tiamat). Lippy Dipple was his name.

Loxodon Rogue! Good one, lol. "I am going to bonus action hide behind that tree stump."

Was he the Face of the group too? It'll ache me terribly if you say no.
Not really. The game was a one shot that I made that wasn't super social based, and there was both a Swashbuckler rogue and warlock who were a lot more suited for social interaction than the shrill voiced little lizard.
Yuan-ti Life Cleric with Entertainer background should not be allowed. Very much a contradictory combination. I would like to see someone come up with a backstory that explains it.
I played a kobold warlock who was a lot of fun! Put everything into mental stats and let strength and dex get dumped on, and then really played into him being smart and cunning enough to survive. He was Pact of the Fiend, but was convinced he was the one in charge of that relationship and could use this evil creature to do good and be an epic hero! I'm sure that will turn out just fine....
I brought back Lippy Dipple in a sequel adventure where he was a contestant in a tournament. I had allowed UA in that game, so he ended up being teleported into a lava pit by the Mystic.

I can't help but hear the transformers sound in my head when I picture your character shifting into animal form...

I played a forest gnome Moon Druid. *crickets*

Do you mean ointment for Hobgoblins or made of Hobgoblins?

Shrill voiced little lizard? Sounds like [insert politician of your preferred vintage] amirite?!
Seriously though, that's a dope combination. I hope he lives on in your other games as a Randall Flagg kinda creature.

Pretty sure the walkin' dude would have to be a Kalashtar ;) his quori spirit would obviously be the crimson king :D

Lippy? Lippy?? LIPPPPPYYYYYYYYY!!
I hope Lippy survived and became even stronger. Otherwise, Tiamat has lost her most powerful chosen.
