1. race doesn't matter, pick what you think looks coolest. Iksar is the best end game but you don't get to use kunark/classic plate (relevant while leveling, meaningless when 60)

Roll whatever race/gender you don't mind looking at.

-Ogre has the best starting stats and frontal stun avoidance. Stats don't mean a lot end game.
-Dwarf has decent stats and barrel-roll jumps (cool factor)
-Troll has good starting stats and regen, slow leveling but cool nonetheless
-Barbarian is never a terrible choice
-Gnomes can look through walls and have rechargable armor -- you never need a shrink potion!
-Halflings are small (useful), have sneak (can't be overstated), and level faster than any other race.
-Humans are meh. They are middle of the road but are never a bad choice.
-Iksar have regen, don't need shrink, highest ac via bonus, and many consider them the best end-game, but the difference is not really that big even with endgame gear.
-Half-elves get dildo helms with velious ... so that's something
-Woodelves get space-alien helms with velious ... so that's something
-Dark elves are inky ... and their velious armor looks cool.

None of this really matters though. Fighting level appropriate content with appropriate gear, all warriors will be useful and powerful.

Pick ... whatever ... race ... you ... find ... most ... visually ... appealing!
