Heh. Looks like we disagree on almost everything, Jani. :-)

Apart from two straight-from-the-book archetypes, most of the characters
were nothing like each other, or any of the archetypes. Though I do
agree on one thing - some players do tend to focus on one thing above
all. But in my experience, they're the exception rather than the rule.
