so I have played a lot of table top rpgs and my most unusual were not in dNd campaigns. I played a female magic user type way before mmo's and that being common in the old warhammer game. It was after I had done some drama and was kinda fun. I played a pacifist magic user type in a friends fantasy game using the champions system. It was useful as he had a pretty open ended magic system using the variable power pool rules so could create spells to learn and know they are balance. played a yoda type jedi and liked to have all these things around cultural and language translation that did not go well. Like a popular form of dancing where you moved when the beat was not happening roughly translated to beat off.
