Blue
Ravenous Bugblatter Beast of Traal
This is hard - almost every character plays up their race, both in the games I play and the game I run. The human PC, which are most "generic" as a race, play up their culture.
Of course, I play in and run games with strong cultures/races. For instance, in the game I run even the monstrous demihumans have unique cultures (ask about my socialist caste-driven hobgoblins, with their LN druids who think the best way to protect animals and plants are to domesticate them.)
Another example is I play in FR. So you aren't just a 'human', you're from Calimshan or Turm or Amn or Cormyr or Tethyr or ..., and each gives you a specific flavor of character.
I did chose dwarves just to pick something. Mainly because I can picture a few "blah" of most other races, but every dwarf you'd know was a dwarf just listening to them played for half a session.
Cheers,
