I have been using Wizards' character creator, but I can't come up with anything unique.  I would very much like to use a hybrid, but I've had trouble making one that would work at early levels (we are starting at 1).  I know there are many ways to have unconventional characters (such as a ranged healer) and I'm open to those ideas as well. 

I don't want to be, just another striker, or just another tank.  

I do enjoy all classes, but enjoy tanks and healers that lean towards strikers the best.  

How can I make a hybrid character which is unique but not useless at low levels?

Edit: Sorry, I'm new to the site, I very much appreciate your kindness and understanding.  I re-worded the question as I think it will whittle the answers down.


Question: LED as 230V AC indicator
Answer: As far as I can tell, Christmas tree LED lights are essentially this, with many LEDs in series to increase the diode's combined forward voltage to something closer to the AC voltage, reducing the voltage across R1, and thus the power. They also seem to include half the diodes in anti-parallel, so for each AC half-cycle, half the LEDs are lit.

The obvious disadvantage of this circuit is the power lost in R1. This means a very low efficiency.

The LED is also on only half the time, and when it is on, has high ripple current. LEDs get less efficient as the instantaneous current increases, so this further reduces efficiency. And, it blinks at 50Hz, which to me, is very noticeable and annoying.
