A bard that grew up in the woods and doesn't really get how pretty she is or what men want with her. (She thinks they're just being nice.) Constantly needing to be rescued by her fellow party members.
Frankly a simple idea of an orc shaman would already do the trick with their mental stat minuses. Orcs have to have some sort of spiritual life after all.
An oread rogue who has all the subtlety of the balloon from big hero 6.
Has spent every skill point in diplomacy but believes that the absolute truth is the best option, ALWAYS. oh, and lots and lots of skill in heal
A Money lender / debt collector assasin. Gives out loans to those who cant pay them, then exacts repayment by killing them. He uses this as a justification for his murdering sprees.
A dwarf rogue with a love for BIG axes, bit without proficiency for it.
People often criticise druids as being conceptually hippie nature lovers. I've never actually seen one played that way; why not try it? Take the feats which boost wild empathy, mutter about "karma, man", roleplay taking a deep drag on some strange bundle of burning herbs frequently, and earn that tie-dyed purple leather armor.
"Go for the eyes Boo, go for the eyes!"; with the Familiar Folio it is finally possible to play a barbarian with a familiar. Do that and concentrate on the familiar.
A kobold barbarian
A grippli rogue with the Agile Tongue feat and kleptomania
A dwarf sorcerer with a deep love for animals and the wilds (verdant bloodline); took a familiar just so at least ONE animal will converse with him. Doesn't understand why "dwarven platitudes" (yelling demands and expletives; low Cha after all) don't work when dealing with beasts
An oread swashbuckler at sea
A dogmatic human (any class) that will only hyperspecialize and refuses to be versatile and dynamic
A half-orc alchemist who burned out his olfactory senses years ago; he's also the party cook. Doesn't understand why his gramma's chili recipe has sent the other PCs to the latrines or the cleric of Saranrae
A Halfling with ridiculously high Int, low Wis as an arcanist who not only doesn't have Halfling Luck but literally doesn't believe it exists; Luck bonuses do not work for him

On the opposite side of this, Darwin, the Apex Predator Druid. This was a character I wanted to play, he would seek out the apex predator in each new environment and try to get one as his animal companion. He wouldn't give a damn about the trees and the balance of nature, just survival of the fittest.
A Suli Paladin with the mount divine-bond feature. He dumped INT to 7, so with the racial penalty, his INT is 5. He lets his 6 INT mount make all the important decisions because the mount is the brains of the operation.
I love my Ratfolk Master Chymist...he has a Giant Isopod Tumor Familiar, and for flavor I have the tumor crawl to his face like a facehugger, inject feelers into his brain stem, and take over the body for his Master Chymist Mutagen personality.

Mysterious Stranger / archeologist bard with a thing for damsels in distress, a hatred of nazis, and the belief that every piece of treasure they find belongs in a museum
I got once dwarf rogue(peeping tom).
My next character will be this http://www.beastsofwar.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/malifaux-cowgirl-grem lins.jpg
I am going with goblin and take
Ugly Swine (trait) which gives her humanlike head/body proportion
and Misbegotten (drawback) which gives her two heavy orbs of flesh on chest and -2 penalty to DEX skills.
She will be from Jurdan's Volunteer, Cheliax and either gunslinger, brawler or alchemist. Or perhaps bits of all. Depend a lot of the adventure path, what will be used.
Since these are always the kind of characters I play/play with, here are some highlights from my games:
- The android occultist with a handy haversack worthy of a soccer mom. (What's that? You need a holy water? An acid? A bag of tricks? A rope of entanglement that we got three books ago? Here you go. Let me just blind that erinyes for you real quick, I have just the thing.)
- The kleptomaniac vishkanya druid with a snake for an animal companion. Snake has become the most respected member of the party.
- My insane half-elf tattooed sorcerer who tried to solve every encounter by putting the enemies to sleep. (He was mythic, so this worked surprisingly well.)
- For a game set in Eberron using Pathfinder rules, I played an extremely CN con artist changeling (3.5 changeling modded into Pathfinder) rogue/alchemist. She won over one of the main enemies by seducing him to their side. Her high point was probably breaking one of the other party members out of jail, during which she knocked out the head constable, impersonated him to free the other PC, then left him in his office with a few empty bottles of strong booze, thereby probably ruining his career forever.
- Extremely grouchy elf hydrokineticist who dipped a level into brawler so he could punch people better.
- The sylph ninja who, by the end of the game, had at least five professions that she had skill ranks in, including Profession (housewife). She also liked mischievously poisoning (sleep poison) other party members and/or people who annoyed her.
I don't know if it's particularly awesome but we have a guy playing an elf wizard with the Breadth of Knowledge feat. He uses it a lot behind the scenes for skill checks and such, but when using it in a fight for monster lore he always gives a lengthy dissertation on he monster which always starts with "IN THE TIME OF LEGEND..." in a rip off of Christopher Lee's voice.
he doesn't think that gods are anything special apart from simply being stronger, and that a sufficiently powerful mortal could effectively be a god themselves
Fits in Golarion, as there several mortals have done it.
