Worst character concepts

One of the keys to running a character like this is that you have to run it even crazier and more stupid than theirs.
When in a somewhat similar situation, I made up a useless halfling thief named after Regan's Secretary of the treasury. In a similar vein, you could have your character be a large somewhat obese drow named Colin Powell. Make him a sorcerer and specialize in negotiation and other similar skills, blow all your feats on stuff like that, and pick all your spells to complement that aim. Then when ever in combat, sit there and try to negotiate a setlement, while your two crazy comrades are attacking.

How about a monk that only communicates in subtitles or in a badly dubbed voice? Add in some cheesy sound effects for the attacks and leaping around. Ooo! Make him a monk / sorceror with spikey hair and whenever he casts an attack spell, he has to shout it out like "Kamehameha!", "Hadouken!", etc or he buffs up like a super saiyan (include the battle aura and sound like he's constipated). Definitely spend lots of time contemplating how your enemies could possibly be more powerful than you. If the DM would allow it, add in a lil Fist of the North Star with heads exploding, blood spurting, etc. after lines like "You don't realize it but you're already dead."
Combine it with the previously mentioned Giff for even more fun. Perhaps a Giff bard who uses bagpipes or a harpsichord as the instrument of choice?

Something similar happened to me.
The DM switched his great, at-the-climax campaign for another one where the PCs were going to be monsters. So I decided to create a half-water elemental, shocker lizard, 6th-level Rogue named "The Unpredictable Random Al' Azar" (al azar is the Spanish word for random) that was also the familiar of a Pixie wizard. Lame feats, skills selection, etc. Totally useless.
I think I only leveled up once. After the campaign, well, the DM lost three players. Take that as an example.

Play a talking potato of course.

To bland. Far too ordinary. Make it an animated brass potato sculpture that is convinced it's from the moon. Add some levels in Wiz, and give it a spellbook with lots of potato-based spells (circle of protection: butter, for instance). And of course it can read scrolls. Potatoes have eyes, you know.

Hey, I like the Giff! Not the gun thing, but yeah, the rest of the Giff.
