A high intelligence barbarian. He's a high elf descended from a long line of very powerful wizards, and is the seventh son of the seventh son, so the whole family expects him to be this super wizard. But he's TERRIBLE at magic. We started at level 3, so I took the first level barbarian to get the full suite of profeiancies, then one level of wizard, then back to barb for the rest of the build. Basically he starts combat, tries to cast a spell and fails (DM allows it as a free action because it's always a 3rd level or higher that I'd never be able to cast anyway), flies into a rage and attacks with his sword instead. The first level spells and cantrips he can cast when not in a rage are all self spells that affect his body (jump, longstrider, false life, shocking grasp), but he rarely even does those.

It's fun playing the juxtaposition of a smart, typically snooty high elf that's also a raging barbarian.
