New Game-- possible spoilers

Hi everyone,
I am making a new game, and I want to experience things which I was unable to do in my last game due to my race, alignment, sex, class, or other roleplaying determinant. In my last game (which was also my first) I played a Half-elven, Chaotic Good, Female Specialist mage Conjurer. Does anybody have suggestions for an alternate character that will allow me to experience as many new elements of the game as possible? Also, I suspect that changing my party would make a big difference. In my last game I had Mazzy, Keldorn, Anomen, Haer Dalis, and Yoshimo/Imoen (I switched during all of the messy business in Spellhold when Yoshimo showed his true colours). I also did most of the Nalia subquest (her manor) and the Aerie circus tent subquest. The only party member I would really like to avoid is Jan, I'm sorry to all of the Jan enthusiasts out there but something about him fundamentaly bothers me. Thank-you in advance to everyone for your suggestions :)

Just create a Neutral Evil Thief (Any Thief... Well Assassin = FUN), and get Viconia, Korgann, Edwin. with that party you can do the whole game ;)
You can pick Jan too, he's damn funny
Haerdalis too, but since you already picked him in your previous game, it doesn't matter ;)

May I also suggest for the second time around, play a couple of your own creations. You can do it in the multi-player game and transfer that to a single player file for easy loading.

Joining the evil path with get you edwin, korgan and viconia. You might want to try an evil monk with another sorcerer/assassin so you can see more of the other butt-kicking classes that BG2 had to offer. Otherwise, you might have to play 30 times to experience all of them...

No need of being evil to have fun. Maybe you can try it LATER..
Why don't you try a strange party?
Being a girl, you could install Solaufein romance Mod, they say is
pretty well done.
He's a fighter/mage.
Your char could be something strange like a priestess of Lathander,
going to dual to thief....

Go for a party somewhat weak in melee, and you'll have more fun
(the game is more difficult).
You could add Imoen, Haer Dalis, Aerie...
