Yo ho ho. I have no idea what I'm doing, I've only ever played half of BG1 and have limited knowledge of D&D. Gimme some fun suggestions.

I like the look of these dragon people... I'M NOT A FURRY SHUT UP

If you're deadset on picking dragonborn, bear in mind that red dragonborns get bonus relationship points with Laezel.

My favourite race picks are githyanki and lolthsworn drow though:

Lolthsworn drow get a bunch of unique dialogue options early on that can allow you to skip some combat encounters (although there are also a coupla situations where it's flipped and you've gotta talk normally peaceful NPCs down from fights).

Githyanki starting proficiencies give you a bunch more defensive options for non-martial classes. They also have a lot of unique dialogues.
