Thanks for that link, but I'd rather go without mods this time because I haven't yet tried out all the existing characters. I will consider it some other time 
.
.Hmm, considering Jaheira or Anomen again...
Anomen is good, yet he lacks fighter HLAs and Stone(Iron)skin. Maybe he levels up quicker than Jaheira after the 3 000 000 xp(because the next druidic level is 3 000 000 xp away), but he'll get only clerical HLAs and only three seventh level priest slots anyway until lvl 25 when he gets his holy symbol. Undead are really no threat since there are enough scrolls of protection, and btw, undead have their weaknesses.
Jaheira, on the other hand, is way better fighter. Because of the extra 1/2 attack at lvl 13, ability to use Belm off-hand, fighter HLAs. It's true that she has too few spells until six million xp, but it's really worth to wait for it, because at this moment she gains five seventh lvl slots, three sixth lvl and three fifth lvl. Besides, at this point she usually gets the Heartwood ring. Until then, an experienced player can still make good use of her, using Staff of Arundel and Wondrous recall in order to replenish the valuable fifth lvl slots, which include Iron Skins, Insect Plague and True Sight.
