we will soon start with the Dragon Heist campaign and then continue with Dungeon of the Made Mage (Level 1 - 20).
As a class I would like to play the Aberrant Mind Sorcerer. Unfortunately, it is very difficult for me to choose the right race, so that it somehow fits nicely into the world...
As background I have chosen "Cloistered Scholar". Here my character as a monk of Candle Keep has access to books about aberration and rituals of the Mind Flayer. Through the forbidden rituals he has awakened the powers for the Aberrant Mind Sorcerer. As a result of his experiments and research, he had to leave Candle Keep.
For the story I had thought that the character could be a human.
But somehow that doesn't really feel right yet. Alternatively, I had also thought about a Shadar-Kai, but somehow I can't get him logically into the story. From the flair I like the dark, but of course I don't want to destroy the RP for the first campaign.
Therefore, my question to you, you have an idea / concept that would fit better?
For what you described, I am looking at a half-elf, or perhaps a yuan-ti pureblood. A tiefling works well too.

Any time an unfathomably powerful entity sweeps in and offers godlike rewards in return for just a few teensy favors, it’s a scam. Unless it’s me. I’d never lie to you, reader dearest.
I decided to play a half-drow. He is the son of a warlock priestess of the GOO (Ghaunadaur). With this I get a halfway good connection to the Far Realm.
Alternatively, a Tiefling would still go with the connection to a Greater Evil.

mechanically, the answer is "mountain dwarf".
