It depends a bit on the game and how effective certain classes will be, but I'll definetely will try to play as a thief-like character. Nothing in Morrowind gave me greater satisfaction than to steal stuff right under the nose of some real powerful NPC's.

Definately have to go with the battlemage first time round, then something of an assasin, sniping people from the shadows.

I am definitely going to be thief type person.
Nothing felt cooler in Morrowind then leaping between roofs on a stormy night, off to rob some noble.

I plan using my characters the closer I can to a D&D Bard, or the jack of all trades stereotype.

Mage of some descripition (if there is a substantial improvement on Morrowind's magic system) or a ranger type (the lonely ranger of the forests just is the epitome of cool).

I am always a battlemage. I'm not to good at stealth games.

I noticed that in Morrowind, how you couldn't really adapt to one thing after you've been so in tuned with another.

Like going from a fighter to magi is hard on your skills as a player for the controls, you have to learn a few new ones. Or stealth person, you have to learn to sneak around really well.

That's why I always went for a jack of all trades, and even though some things I never used, they were still useful when I did absolutely have to use them.

Custom...

Along the lines of a battlemage, but I disliked having more than 1 melee weapon skill as a major/minor skill...

I want to be a part of the enslaved race of Mushroom people (Mushie for short) whom escaped Dagaroth enslavement when the portals opened and my birthsign allows all women of all races, to crave my Mushroom greatness.

Or a BattleMageThief.
