I think pirate would be a cool class. Possibly skills that have to do with magic find or stealing gold/items, open sesame, sabotage etc. Though I don't know what kind of fighting he would do - possibly a lot of hit and run? I always liked the character Meshif from D2; he seemed like a baddy lol.
I had an Amazon in D2 called "Malibu_Barbi" - I guess that would work for any female class. But probably funniest as a female Barbarian (get it - Barbi? heh). I'll think of some for the other classes.
Right now I'm raiding w/ my WoW guild, still playing D2, Fallout 3, Dungeons of Dredmor. Finished Torchlight and Bastion a while back, both highly recommended. Played a bit of Minecraft when I was visiting my brother - I can see why it can get addictive. I'd heard good things about Dwarf Fortress, but it was too hard to get into.
Agree with you - "The Pit" in Tamoe Highlands has a high area level for the Act.
I also seemed to find a lot of stuff in Kurast Bazaar - lots of skeletons, hollow logs, chests, baskets, etc.
