I've had only three characters that were interesting at all, and none of which lasted very long, so I'll just talk about the little snippets I had with all three.
There was Something-or-other, a rogue from a small town that had literally no magical resources at all save for a few books that made mention of it. From these resources, Something-or-other concluded that all "mages" were simply charlatans and alchemists, so deciding he still wished to command their respect, he learned how to make alchemical items, he dressed in silly robes, and he trained a hawk to perch on his arm. It was fun while it lasted, but the only adventure I got to play him in was basically just a big battle with a couple of ogres (our DM was a big War gamer)
There was also Arog, the half-orc fighter wannabe paladin (I hve a lot of wannabes...) He desperately wanted to be a Paladin, and though he trained as a paladin and had a good heart and a sense of valor, he still couldn't quite get over his chaotic bent. He was fun to play until the DM decided there was no point to a game with two players.
Finally, there was Avellios Moonwhisper, an elven swashbuckler. He had spent much of his life as a pirate on the seas, though he was careful not to do anything "immoral." His father died long back in an attack on their village by some extra-planar entity. This gave the elf a reason to adventure, as well as a strong hatred of evil. The best moment with him is probably when he tried (in vain) to convince the party NOT to try and break through the floor to see if there was a lower level.
Monk: Okay, I'll try and punch through the floor!
DM: You say ouch.

Elec Mournbringer, a Elven Bard and Merchant. He was fun to play, but the Campaign endet around 12th level, I think.
Manorborax, a Kobold Sorcerer. Hey, he can cast Fireball, is a Kobold, and the Campaign seems to be well done...
My Halfling Rouge/Pilot in a Dragonstar/Space Gothic Mixture was also a fun character - he later owned a flying seat (Farscape anyone?). Unfortunetely, the campaign ended after we figured out that D&D and a HorrorSpace Setting don`t mix well ...

Ixthil LeVay, a drow mercenary Captain in Bregan Daerthe, somehow this NPC became a good guy/bad guy thorn in my PCs side, it was very fun to have him in the game because it was one of the few times Ive witnessed my players truly on edge. They were scared of this guy, and liked/hated him at the same time. It was great.

Why that would be Kengar Borl, elven thief! 
He was my 1st edition PC. He was a blast to play. One of my favorite aspects of him was the fact that he became known by the other players as a "Luck Leech." Whenever there was a saving throw to be made, Kengar would someone manage it (often only making the roll exactly, or by 1). Afterwards, every single other character would proceed to fail their Saves. Nothing you could plan or expect, just dumb luck. This happened often enough that folks started asking me to roll my saving throw after them. 
Every time it happened it just cracked me up.
Kengar was also a great one for getting into trouble by stealing important stuff and pawning it before the party found out. He had a lot of side adventures that the rest of the party never found out about too. Ah..good times.
