Sure, I'll give you the details on my successful honour run character.
Miscka, a dwarf sorcerer/rogue with the soldier background:

Her backstory is that she was part of a special military unit called the Twilight Crows (loosely based on the Soviet 588 Bomber Regiment of WW2, the "Night Witches"). The Twilight Crows used stealth and magic to harass enemies and cause attrition during sieges and marches, striking quickly from the shadows before disappearing back into the darkness. Her unit was on leave in Baldur's Gate when the nautiloid attacked and being a commander she became the one to quickly take charge of the survivors of the crash and lead the group.
Her personality is a complex blend of cunning and discipline. Fearless and determined while also resourceful and able to adapt and think on her feet. While she is quick to take charge in strategic situations, outside of her area of expertise she is generally rather stoic and reserved. She doesn't let people in close and the story of the game is how she develops a bond of honor and duty with her companions to eventually take it upon herself to keep them all safe and make sure no one is left behind. She has a romance with Karlach and eventually follows her to Avernus.
My favourite part about this character is how it translated into the mechanics of the game. She is basically a stealthy assassin, but instead of blades and arrows she uses magic attacks and her sorcery metamagic to attack quickly from stealth at long range. Focusing on spell sniper and getting the critical hit threshold as low as possible she could deal massive damage with just cantrips and then disappear back into stealth beyond the enemies' vision. It was brutally effective, especially in combination with Karlach who wielded the Trident of the Waves that would inflict wet condition upon enemies for Miscka to attack with her twinned and quickened Cold Rays.
