Oh lordy, where to start... Undead make for some interesting character concepts :)
Cursed Elf Archer: Doesn't sound all that weird, but allow me to explain. This character was an evolution in the story of a Ravenloft campaign. In Ravenloft, sometimes Raise Dead spells have "mishaps". Sometimes, they just don't work, sometimes the PC actually comes back as some form of mindless undead, and other times, something much worse(DM's choice).
The party was rather small, so they recruited an Elf Archer as an NPC hireling(and to help the story along). She's with the party for a long time, and eventually falls in combat. The party Cleric attempts to raise her, but her Fort save to come back falls short by 1 point. After the spell is cast, she is motionless for a moment. After about 1 minute, she slowly opens her eyes, and staggers to her feet. No one in the party noticed she wasn't breathing... Basically, she is stuck between true life and death, literally. As the campaign went on she started to decay, and bit by bit lost her humanity(elfity?). Eventually she left the party, due to her remaining last shred of concern for their existence. Someday soon, they're paths may cross again...
I had a blast story-telling with this character. She didn't interfere with the party goals, and played only a minor role in combat, so she didn't suffer from DM-NPC stigmas. She was there to help move the plot along, and get the players more into the RP aspect of the campaign, and worked well. The players were genuinely concerned, and afraid, as she slowly turned more and more undead.

Potential ideas that have yet to come to fruition.
After Bastion of Unborn Souls, there were a LOT of soulless kids in my wife's homebrew. Undead bloodline sorcerer!
My iconic Paladin's right hand man... er... dragon is a Draconic Bloodline sorcerer/Dragon Disciple. In his pre-scaly days, he was VERY promiscuous. Draconic bloodline sorcerer!
Massive Orc vs Dwarf battle with a Human settlement caught in between. Lots and lots of Half-Orcs coming out of that.
Several gods died horribly, infusing the world with copious divine energy.
In short, I'm thinking of an all Sorcerer party set about 20 years from current game timepoint. Undead, Draconic, Divine, Arcane. Maybe one of each!
I guess that's more of a thought exercise than anything else right now. More later!

Decades ago, back in my AD&D days, my favorite character was a thousand year old intelligent sword. She was a bit stir crazy from sitting in first a silver dragon horde, and then a blue dragon's horde for centuries. She could sit there with Detect Magic and look at the pretty auras around her in the treasure trove, but do nothing with or to it.
Once she was rescued from the blue by a PC, she started on a concerted ego manipulation to get true autonomy. After weeks of gentle prodding of the PC that only selfless wishes are not twisted by the gods, she convinced him to use the last in a ring of wishes for her to get the ability to grow as a wizard. Persistence paid off. Her next hurdle was to find spells to learn that did not have somatic or material components. Well, dragons and a few fey are capable of spell casting verbal only spells. So, the unending quest was on to find spell casting creatures with only verbal spells that could be bargained with to teach her. Slaying a dragon was difficult, but possible for her PC. Approaching one and bargaining with it to teach her spells was was far more challenging. Unseen servant was her first prize. After several years of adventuring in the service of the PC, she was finally able to cast Polymorph and truly set herself free.
In a Minimus game I ran at a convention, one of the characters was an Iraq War vet who suffered brain trauma.
He firmly believed that he was seeking the Enlightenment of the Buddha of the Roundhouse Kick, and following the Righteous Path of the Bearded One, had the super power of "Chuck Norris Facts!"
Anything the *player* could declaim solemnly as a Chuck Norris Fact! without snickering, or cracking up, could be made true by spending a Bennie. However, he could NOT use a Fact more than once in the same session.
"Chuck Norris doesn't need oxygen. Oxygen needs Chuck Norris!" (At which point, he's now immune to the sleep gas that was being used to incapacitate the party.)
"Chuck Norris doesn't pick locks. Chuck Norris solves these problems with a round-house kick!" (At which point, he round-house kicked a locked bank vault door off of its hinges. Everybody else just sort of *stared*.)
"Chuck Norris's beard is so intimidating that traffic jams part like the Red Sea!" (Used for hot pursuit of the getaway car.).
Related to this, a Champions character with topology based powers spent 3 points on a Perk.
"Always has a convenient parking space." The campaign was set in San Francisco. People who've lived there know that's a 160 Active Point power, minimum.
(Over the course of the game, it became clear that the reason why he had this convenient parking space is because his subconsciously controlled Reality Warping Powers were moving inconveniently placed cars into alternate dimensions...)
This sounds tame comparied to some of the others:
A Gnomish Sorcerer permanently polymorphed (by an immensely powerful demigod he insulted accidently) into a Raven who had also an improved familiar Formian Worker. Another demigod who took pity on the raven sorcerer shortly after (since supposedly they couldn't undo an equally powerfl beings curse) and gave the raven premanent still spell and eschew materials. Never really got turned back though.
It was a suprisingly satisfying character in a home-brew style compaign. Many of the NPCs/monsters mistook me for the other wizard's familiar instead. :D

Well mine's more silly than strange.
We once played a one-shot specifically designed to get silly concepts out of our system. We had a halfling ninja who was covered in weapons, had quick draw and always spent more time picking up those weapons from the ground than actually fighting. There was also Bob the fighter who wasn't a figther but a ranger... but then again he wasn't really a ranger because he was a lawyer by trade. He convinced an ogre who terrorised a local town to come and stand judgement; he then defended the ogre and got him off on a technicality and then killed him to get the loot.
I played a fantasy version of Indiana Jones. A tomb robber with a wizard hat and whip who hummed the Raiders March theme every time in the dungeon without really knowing why.
I once had a half frost giant half vampire. He was huge sized and I'd munchkin'd him out to wield a gargantuan sized great axe. Yet, in that game, I wasn't the weirdest. Just the tallest and shiniest in mithral armor.

Reminds me a tiny bit of the Sandman comics, where Dream's companion was a Raven named Matthew.
I really like this character concept, honestly. I think Ravens are infinitely cool.

Heh, my wife started something like that a while ago. Not ENTIRELY for the silly, just for the weird.
Now, I have:
*A Dwarven Evoker/Astrogineer. At next level, he gets the "Plasma Surrogate" feat that allows him to change "Fireball" into "Plasmaball". And he's got DR 20 to plasma, so he could detonate it at pointblank range and probably survive.
*A Kitsune Bard, who may be taking Trickster Cleric levels at some point.
*A Rogue Modron Psion. (Metacreation based)
*A Gnome Archivist/Sorcerer who's probably going Pathfinder Savant soon.
*A Bariaur Planar Ranger who's probably going Holy Liberator of Freya soon.
That said, I like the idea of an Indiana Jones style character. But then again, I've always been a fan of Indy.

Thanks! I kind of want to try it again, maybe in a one-shot or something. It doesn't work at high levels as you need to be able to use thumbs kinda.

One of my exs played a Laura Croft/Indiana Jones hybrid female halfling rogue/thief acrobat (3.5 prc). She was also afraid of snakes and dual weilded repeating hand crossbows or whip daggers. Needless to say she was horrifically effect anf fun to play along side, until the wild mage warped us into the sun! The odds? 1 in 10,000, and all his abilities to avoid bad effects for the day were used up. Good times though... :)

Sounds similar to my strange character.
My first (and only) 4th edition character was a halfling two weapon fighter who had been abandoned as an infant, and adopted and raised by humans. His human parents were abusive, but never bothered telling him that he was adopted. He firmly believed that he was just a human with a growth problem, and he was constantly trying to act tough and intimidating to make up for his shortcomings (pun intended).
He began play armed with two shortswords, 5 daggers, 15 shurikens, two kukri, and a scimitar. He collected more weapons very quickly, and his short-man syndrome led to him hurrying to get in fights to prove how tough he was, and taking stupid-yet-bold actions in the face of certain doom and somehow coming out unharmed.
He waltzed right through so many traps that our DM all but stopped bothering with them. Either he'd trigger a trap and dodge the effect, or he'd walk right past it without triggering and the other party members would assume it was clear and then get smacked around.
The little bastard was fun as hell to play, one of these days I might play him again. That game has attendance problems, with some flaky members, some people who lost interest, and I was too busy to play regularly from planning my wedding.

oooh archieologists.
I've two.
a half elf rogue with the acrobat kit (2e).
Lantan father, moon elf mother, so she had dark brown/black skin and silver hair. No knowlege of elves except for all the tales her (slave) mother told her, so she doesn't understand why people freak out. Took out a stone guardian at 2nd level by herself. Thing was programmed to retrieve an amulet, so she got it to chase her through a ruin (think cliff dwellers) up to the roof...
...where she pole vaulted to another building. It of course tried to follow her.
Second one was also a rogue, collecter in antiquites. He had wild talents (2e) and balistic attack, so I was prone to do the 'Gambit schtick' Except I used coins.
Best line of his career:
Werewolf player: "Ok, I've got my damage reduction, a rock isn't going to do much."
*rolls for power, rolls for hit* "Hah! Take 12 points of silver piece damage!*
WW Player: "Oh $#!%, he's thowing silver pieces?"
I also lived dangerously, balistic attacking globes from a necklace of fireballs.
Neutral Evil Half-Avariel/Half-Drow Fighter 3/Rogue 3/Assassin 2 war hero. His particular tribe of Avariels were attacked by one of the largest Lawful Evil human kingdoms to try and take their land. The Avariels, being merely one little tribe, sought aid from the surrounding human and demi-human nations, who were all too afraid to stand against the human kingdom. The only people that came to the aid were Avariel tribes from around the world. They formed one big military and fought back.
My character (Killian Galacia) did so well in boot camp that they ended up making him the leader of his squad. When they realized he was a talented warrior, but too self-involved for leadership, they took his position away and gave it to his best friend and second in command. So one day, during a heated battle, Killian's new commander had a little "accident" from a friendly sword. After a while the Avariel military created a commando batallion, and Killian, with his natural stealth, the fact that he works best alone, and his known mean streak, was assigned to the commando batallion, where he made a name for himself.
The commander of the human army was your typical long blond haired paladin LOOKING type, but he was a blackguard. He had taken wings from a fallen foe and turned them into a cloak that he wore while fighting on the front lines.
Now, Killian's mother liked to go for walks instead of flights sometimes, and one day, while patrolling his section, Killian saw what he THOUGHT was the enemy commander, swooping down and taking his head off. When he looked at who he had killed though, it turned out to be his mother on one of her wandering walks.
Needless to say, the human army, with their much larger size and more ingrained military complex, won. Killian's tribe, and the rest of the Avariels, scattered. Killian found he was not welcome with any of the surviving Avariel tribes because of his known anger problem and cruelty. Feeling like a cast out Vietnam Vet, he got even more bitter and mean, laying blame on those he felt were at fault for the way things turned out. He decided that anything without wings, the "groundwalkers" as he called them were invariably selfish, cowardly, and destructive (never mind the fact that he ignored these qualities in himself). As such, he started a one man genocidal mission. He wants to bring about the end to all non-winged races. All this, and he thinks he's actually good, not evil.
He's difficult to play in a group, since most PC's don't have wings, but I always figured that as long as it leads to more killing, he's okay with working with someone for a while.

seen a few "off kilter" style characters in my day, but nothing really crazy, per se.
Some of the standouts:
Squirrel Ninja/Assassin. Based off a character who ended up losing an inter-party conflict with the party's Druid. The fight started because the Ninja Ninja'd some guy and the Druid took offense; it ended with the Ninja in a Wall of Thorns spell.
Rather than kill him (and suffer the 3 or 4 Elixers of Retribution he had ingested), the Druid Baleful Polymorphed him into a squirrel. He failed the Fort save but made the Will, keeping his personality and skills.
Fast forward to a one-shot game months or years later; Palin the Squirrel comes into his own, as a cohort of his original player's PC.
Dr. Dumptruck (I am not going to even try to list all her names. For that, check out my CoT Campaign Journal.) the Gnomish Evoker / Doctor of Confabulation. A Bleachling Gnome who refuses to admit the Bleaching exists, she is obsessed with the idea of Evocation as Useful Things. In other words, more than just Magic Missiles or Burning Hands, she wants to create through Evocation.
Some highlights:
At one point, while the group is discussing whether they need masks, hoods, or something else to disguise their identities while committing rebellion the player rips a sheet from her sketchbook (being filled with IG sketches and notes, btw), pokes two holes in it, and wears the paper mask for the rest of the game.
Nothing too weird there, except for the PC/Player symmetry. Both wore that silly mask all game, continually referring to the notes and sketches on the inside and talking in character through a blank sheet of white paper.
This same character now has a partially finished walking anvil, and is working on a portable shower (a Wondrous Item intended to cast Lesser Restoration 1/day) which is heated through Burning Hands and takes up a whole 5' square.
Finally, there was my Gnomish Beguiler. Thoroughly Chaotic Evil, he attacted no less than three cohorts, all of whom died very messily (Hobgoblin Bard = Eviscerated by a Steel Kraken, Half-Elf Bard = burninated by a Half-Dragon Living Fireball, Human Rogue/Assassin = Disintegrated by an Inspired Psion), and still had the leadership score to attract both Cohorts and Followers.
He constantly performed casually evil actions, like betraying "dissidents" to the Gnomish Secret Police, trying to lock a good Cleric and Fighter in an underground vault after charming them, and routinely executing surrendering combatants.
He also constantly saved the party's bacon without hesitation, healing and buffing, and tried to keep them as healthy as possible. He was finally chased away after the party Psion saw him killing some villagers, leading to some party-splitting conflict.

Respectfully snipped:
"...and he's got DR 20 to plasma, so he could detonate it at point blank range and probably survive..." Awesome! :)
"...Holy Liberator of Freya..." I love Freya... sounds like fun.
Yeah. We're considering that he's probably going to call himself... "Gerfried Isidor, The Starmage" I have this strange pseudo Nikolai Tesla vibe about him at high levels.
Ah yes, Vash, Doe of Vara. AKA, Vash the Stampede. She's one of my favorites of the group. The Holy Liberator thing just really works for her. As for the Freya connection, well, she acquired a Valkyerie's blade and then Freya started making requests.

Mike is doing good. Says the surgery changed his personality, and dealing with the half thyroid is kind of a f#$~-up I think.
I have him on facebook.
Wrong section, homeslice. No worries, though.
@kakarasa: you're a nutbag. Cool.

I made a character I affectionately named Shiny Lantern. He was and is a warforged scout rogue/artificer. That thinks he's a metal kender.
Now, I could have just gone with this as the limit of his insanity, but no. I went on to give him a personality like a twisted blend of Pinky, Gir, and Bender.
Heh, reminds me of my first (and only) warforged character; Brick. This particular warforged was massive (over nine feet tall), and heavy (made entirely from wrought iron and ceramic), nearly pushing him into the Large category. Also, as it happened, he had the mental acuity and judgment of a slow eight-year-old. A cleric, he used all of his spell slots for healing spells, because he didn't know that he could do anything else. He also had a fondness for "abandoned" items that no one else in the party wanted, including a suit of Small scale mail that he wore as a hood, and a cursed, intelligent, insane longsword.

That's gotta be killer. Same thing happened to my grandmother.
If anyone wants to pick up the Dark Sun game, though, that would be awesome. Hell, I could do it once I get back to Georgia.
Dark Sun. Aso is waiting.
The weirdest character I ever played was an awakened hamster monk. It had crazy bonuses eo AC, damage and speed due to size and class.
Imagine Yoda (from RotS), two size categories smaller.
[minsc voice]"Go for the eyes Boo, the eyes[/minsc voice]
Now I want to play a bard with a minature giant space hamster hand puppet for some strange reason.

My character doesn't seem so weird, he was a half gnome human who was a shoemaker by trade and practised magic for a hobby. He wasn't very wise and was Chaotic so he created a spell that whenever his name, Brixlid Von Vogelstien was uttered a minor Illusion of say, lightining or three birds would circle his head. Sounds tame right?
. . .
. . .
Not if your in Ravenloft...He ended up going into a dream world, and by trying to use magic there broke it into smithereens by summoning a petal, went insane suffering delusions of grandeur, was destroyed again inside the dream world, resurected by a cleric of Odin renouncing his faith to make a deal with demon whom the party was tracking, who also cured his insanity. Then was killed by again by a sneak attacking PC who thought him a threat to the party, about 3 rounds later.
...
Wow, that is SO awesome! A half-gnome Kibo!
I think my most untypical character was a Bard based on Ben Stiller.

I really wanted to play a skeleton once, but instead of just giving one an intelligence score, I decided to see if I could do it within the rules.
Forgot how exactly I did it, but I want to say I permanently animated a skeleton as an object instead of an undead creature, then used the living construct template or somesuch to turn it into skeleton shaped meat.
DM vetoed it on account of it probably not being able to support its own weight :(
Later, I found some guidelines somewhere about having skeleton pcs, so I built a Fighter named "John the Fisherman" who had died at sea while in possession of an accursed pendant, which brought him back to unlife at the bottom of the sea. As you can guess he wasn't so welcome in the village once he'd walked up out of the waves sans flesh.
So he took the ancestral sword down off the mantle, glued a beard onto his face (He loved his beard, so he did), and set off adventurin'!
Alas, never got to play the character in an actual game.

Tis a shame you didn't get to use it...
The only issue I had with undead PCs is all the immunities and weaknesses. It's a balance issue. Maybe I'll throw together a +0 LA undead.
One of my favorite PCs was this half-orc barbarian/PsyWar who also had a grafted intelligent aberrant intelligent tongue that could be used to deliver poison, grapple, whip and trip attacks. This was an Eberron campaign where I had to inject him into a campaign after my previous character met his demise. He was actually either hundreds or thousands of years old and was brought back from an exploration and brought back to Sharn for research ... only to find out that he was in deep slumber and not so much an iced cadaver. And he was hungry and had the intelligence of Thog from OOTS. :D

I guess my strangest character is one I am currently playing in Legacy of Fire. Based loosly on Stephen from Braveheart.
A halfling rogue who was raised by Haleen. Another character a pesh addicted wizard was also raised by her. We came up with a backstory where her abusive husband was a pretty bad guy and a pesh addict too.
As a young boy I supplied the family and carry on that fine family tradition to this day.
Anyway, the abuse got too much one night and my brother and I killed daddy to save mommy. I used a kitchen knife and my brother a club. This is when my brother went deep into his pesh addition. I took a different route and began hear father from the other side. I decided he had become a deity and I needed to create the church of Frederick.
Now I often hear Frederick give instructions or comments or prophecy. Trauma is a real B**** sometimes.

Re: Urizen. Wow, that's totally awesome. Eberron was such an incredible setting, and I can totally envision this character stalking and killing folks in Sharn.
Re: Shem. Huh, that's pretty ... intense. The only time I've dealt with harsh issues like that, it's been a weird sort of psychodrama with my iconic Paladin. Who was brutalized by a LOT of Orcs. And through the grace of Moradin, forgave them and is now in a committed relationship with a Half-orc woman. Of course, when the Orcs came to the Dwarven lands and brought war... (s)he didn't have any problem bringing the pain. It was still very, very sobering.
Re: Urizen. Wow, that's totally awesome. Eberron was such an incredible setting, and I can totally envision this character stalking and killing folks in Sharn.
Yeah...but the DM wouldn't like that. :P Ended up being charmed by a halfling necromancer PC who promised him adventures where he can get his hands and tongue dirty.
Halfling Necromancers for the win!
Guessing Tonguey became an NPC?
Nah, it was more of a symbiotic relationship. It was downplayed a bit, but sometimes the will of the aberrant tongue would be stronger than the half-orc which would cause his primal side to surface. Hulking out, so to speak.
