Thank you all so much for your replies! smile What a nice community. laugh
Coming from other games i really did not expect that.

I have to say - i never really considered a Paladin, because I normally associate them with the good bois and holy stuff. But it really makes more sense with that Tiamat background.. so thank you for that!
Now i know what i can research, so i get more of a clue what to do on release. laugh

I also had no idea about the berserkers rage. Not being able to cast my fire stuff while raging wouldn't be the right call for my character.

As for what matters more to me.. I think the physical strength to be honest. So I can be on the front line right from the very start! Standing back as a caster (even if it would only be for the first few levels - which could mean the entire 1. act)
would not be a good look on the "mighty dragon" (yea, he's a delusional megalomaniac). :'D As long as i can set a good amount of people on fire later on, i'm happy.

If it takes a while until i feel truly powerful - i think thats alright. If i get my butt beaten at the start, it could be an interesting opportunity to roleplay with the fact that I'm not so great after all.
.. Well until i whoop some myself. laugh

I wrote your suggestions down! Luckily (or sadly) there are still 2 weeks left to make my choice. Good amount of time to ponder about all of it.
