Let's see characters (anywhere; they don't need to be companions necessarily) who aren't what they are because that particular race gets the appropriate stat boost. I want:
-Dwarf bard
-Halfling sorcerer
-Tiefling paladin
-Gnome barbarian
-Dragonborn druid

Obviously I don't expect to see all of these, but one or two would be fun. Seeing extreme archetypes gets a little old. Sure, gnome culture isn't going to be pumping out tons of barbarians - they aren't predisposed to it, but let's see one of those who is whatever a barbarian is by gnome standards.
