FYI: "Redthistle" is the clan name of my favorite gnome PC (Pathfinder game). He's a rogue/sorcerer, but I could add a level of bard just for your nightmares' sake ...
Your comment triggered a memory of a meme making the rounds, might have been back in the 1990s. The idea then was that whatever your notion was of the worst way to die, that would be exactly how you'd meet your end.
Putting a twist on that, imagine if when we died we were to reincarnate as our "least favored" race/class combo.
For me, it would be a catfolk barbarian (Grumpycat Conan?) - just thinking of all that tongue-bathing makes me shudder.
Interesting thought. Mine would be a Halfling Bard and/or Cleric. Bard bores me, cleric doesn't inspire me as a class. also, halfling. bleh.
