From what I remember Nanoha, Fate & Hayate are in the 'Orbital bombardment' class of Magical girls.
Plus Hayate has her Wolkenritter to add to the fun.
Nanoha basically bombards with plasma while Meruru beats stuff up
It was one of my first times trying pathfinder.
One of my friends likes to "joke." " I am an elf named DYLAN I'm a CN(E) rogue/cleric of death from the ghetto.
The weirdest backstory I ever saw, that we still quote every now and then was when our newest player wanted to try his hands on the ranger. I was in charge of introducing and explaining the details behind the classes and gave each class hints and ideas what they could pull off. I had to mention the ranger's favored enemy feature which he seemed to find intriguing. I found out why that was when he got to introduce his ranger Gaius. His backstory: He was a hunter, with a beautiful wife, and lived a happy, yet carefree life. Until his home was destroyed and his wife raped and killed by goblins. Yep... the goblins of Golarion, the jolly bobble-heads held Gaius down and had him witness the brutal rape and maiming of his beloved spouse. I think everyone's ready for the typical revenge story, especially when considering rangers, but this just sort of spread an air of silence to the table and pc's wisely never mention anything regarding a significant other next to Gaius, as this inevitably triggers Vietnam-like flashbacks of the traumatic event.
The phrase went: "My wife was raped... by GOBLINS!!!
<digs around in the old memory banks>:
A. The "no one wants to read this" personal fetish background story that involves descriptions of camps of forced breeding programs that that One Guy turns into the table, that his scantily-clad enchantress sorceress is a product of.
B. The soft, downcast-eyed damsel who is constantly a victim of Other Peoples' Meanness. She sighs her way through the backstory, and is somehow Chosen by Destiny. She is noble-blooded. She has done nothing wrong in her life, despite Being Cast Out/etc.
C. The ...thankfully, I have only had this happen once: the creepy halfling servant with a childlike demeanor. He is soft-cheek'd and chubby-faced, and a "favorite" of all the female nobles. His keeper dies, and he goes on a vengeance quest. The undertones are everything you think they are.
D. The product of druid-on...you know. Not going there before breakfast. A person has to be able to eat.
After all of that, I will gladly take the "my parents were killed, I was made into a slave, a tribe of mercenaries adopted me" trope, any day.
Worst I had was by a loved one. I still cringe.
It was a bastions of "and then" s with things like being the master swordmaster of a country, world renowned, adopted into nobility and was the bestest best at everything.
Then got amnesia and forgot it all.
/facepalm
As an aside-it's not the worst character story I've heard...but the worst wasn't for a game.
It was a "short story" I was asked to look at and review, possibly offer editing help.
It was seven pages long.
The intro involved a guy sitting on a hill as a hermit who punches god, the runs down a mountain to a stable, where they breed monster horses. The guys sleeps with the girl who maintains the stable and then punches the horses when they try to bite him, and tucks one under either arm and runs into a city, where he beats up the big evil and marries the princess.
That's it.
He did not like my review.
Oh, memories.
