Well the only things he does that could directly relate to a BG class (kit) is when he occasionally goes crazy and starts attacking people with those claws of his, which sort of seems berserker-esque (incidentally I think his only decent stats would be related to those claws, STR and DEX).
His profession is doctor which is a hard field to translate into DND, since it's considered intellectual in nature (mage), yet also they're healers (cleric), and they use advanced technology (rogue). Thankfully, he's dangerously incompetent at his job, so it doesn't matter all that much.
He doesn't really seem to care about anyone but himself and the Professor, and he's sometimes downright devious. He's not really smart enough to be willfully evil, most of his misdeeds are just self-serving. I'm thinking that and his spontaneity have him pegged as Chaotic Neutral.
So, considering all that, I'd imagine he'd look something like this:
Name: Dr. Zoidberg Race: Lobster (fulfills the non-human requirement for multiclassing) Class: Fighter/Mage/Cleric Alignment: Chaotic Neutral Special Characteristics: A Minsc-esque head wound that occasionally sends him into a berserker rage
Strength - He's done some crazy stuff with those claws Dexterity - See Strength Constitution - He seems to be pretty tough to take down, he's got a really hard shell Intelligence - Generally very bad at the things he does need to know, but sometimes (very rarely) surprising in knowing about unrelated things Wisdom - He was the only one to make it onto Robot Santa's "nice list" that one year, so maybe he's got more sense than we thought; Or maybe he's just too ineffective to have done anything naughty Charisma - Largely seen as a loathe-worthy annoyance, yet loved by the professor and possessing a charming nature of sorts
Not the best character from a powergaming perspective, but definitely fun to roleplay I'm sure. @LadyEibhilinRhett What do you think?
I enjoyed Dark Alliance 2... whenever my computer wasn't working so I couldn't play the real Baldur's Gate games (notice how I call it Dark Alliance 2 and not Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance 2).
I think if DA had been on PC and included online multiplayer people would have liked it much more..
I guess it depends on how much you like action games.. Personally i always enjoyed DA cus i like to play one character at a time.. less micromanaging to deal with
The game was kind of boring to play solo but my brother and i ran through the first and second game together and i think we had more fun cus of all the laughs and ownage (the classes were much better when combined together, Necro+barb for example).
After you beat expert on DA2 you unlock drizzt and artemis.. It was pretty fun playing Drizzt

Me and my brother did the exact same thing (in fact, we went Necro+Barb as well, interesting) and I do enjoy the games, I just like the meme/troll that they are not "true" Baldur's Gate games. Which is funny, because they are actually in Baldur's Gate (for at least part of DA 1) where Dark Alliance 2 isn't at all.

Well, the argument that they aren't "true Baldur's Gate games" has nothing to do with whether or not they're set in Baldur's Gate, but rather with the fact that they are not even the same style of game as the first Baldur's Gate game. Dark Alliance is a real-time 3d hack and slash action RPG. I don't have anything against the Dark Alliance games, they're good for what they are, but the statement that they're not "true" Baldur's Gate games is a valid one, it's just a metter of perspective.
The following meme is obviously a huge exaggeration for comic purposes.

A cleric with low wisdom maybe?
Clearly he is the party bard.

@LadyEibhilinRhett What do you think?
It's not recommended to go above 35 if you don't want to mess up the cutscenes.
I loved baldurs gate dark alliance 1n2. I also love Baldur's gate..
Is it possible to love both?
I cannot BELIEVE this had not been done ... so I did it!:
