Shaman's Race

[Vlak]

Lots of people will tell you Ogre for frontal stun immunity, there's a lot of argument on how that makes them best in the end game. Troll (innoruuk) gets access to the snare necklace from neriak cleric guild. Iksar have regen and higher ac, but can't use JBB so they have to nuke normally. Barbs are good-aligned and don't fill doorways.

Pick which you like best, they're all pretty even, IMO.
