This is pretty much the same as I posted in the DM forum. Are there any characters you have never used?
For me, it's: Talon, Leta, Necro, Lana, Tula, Sting, Slogar, Gnatu, Mantia, Ven and Dema.
I think that character selection was always a bit more straightforward in CSB because they don't have objects at the start so it was one less thing to consider.

Re: Characters You Have Never Used
I think I only started a game with the CSB characters once or twice - I vaguely remember possibly picking Buzzzz? I can't remember now - mostly I just take through my team from DM that I'm already used to playing and don't want to abandon

Re: Characters You Have Never Used
I've always thought that the CSB characters don't appear as interesting as the DM ones because they have no items to start with. In DM, you were often faced with a choice: Zed's torch, Leyla's rope, Wuuf's flask, Sonja's sword and so forth. I think that's what caused me to try out most of the characters back in the day.

Only ever used Plague to complete the dungeon. MAYBE Deth here and there for a test run. Halk Gonzo Barbarian too.

Re: Characters You Have Never Used
I've not used most of the CSB characters. I tended to play it with my imported DM characters. Something about all those bugs and birds just didn't appeal. Though I did have parties using either of the two hidden champions, Lor and Kazai.
