Between the obsessive details about her bum and bossoms [sic], this line struck me the weirdest - "There, she was stripped naked, placed on a ritual circle and tormented, mentally and psychocaly (Not rape, no!) by hot and painfull tools, such as a hot poker and more."
They obviously dislike people who eat too much, aren't thin, and likes their characters being tormented naked but thankfully NOT RAPE!
I only see High Elf, not Half Elf? o_Oa But yeah, wow at the attention to T&A detail on someone that's supposed to physically be a 16 year old. Creepy. (Then again, I'm older, I'm not sure it would ping quite as creepy to a teenager.)
YOU ARE A HUMAN! That is the race the game allows you to play, NO there are no other races! You are not a dragon! You are not a hybrid! You are not a "really similar humanoid race"!
The entire character screams "MARY SUE" up the whazoo and has absolutely no redeeming quality, value or interesting and believable feature, it's like a character from one of R.A.K.'s books... I actually punched my damn screen on just how terribly written this character was.
I guess Half-Elves can be played decently, but taking into account that High Elves considered half-breeds to be impure and humans overall didn't really trust them... it's kinda of a rough area to RP in... let alone RP it properly (won't say it's impossible though

I've either seen or posted this character before. Try raking through the chaotic neutral section for sues sometimes, seems to be chosen as a special unique alignment.
Chaotic neutral has a tendency to get abused a lot. All the little 16-year-olds are like "hur hur I'm chaotic neutral, I'm all anarchistic and cool!" ...Which usually they aren't, especially if they go the anarchist route, because generally if you are fighting the government it is because it is corrupt (and thus you have a good cause) or you just want to destroy it (in which case you are pretty much evil) so it's pretty hard to be "neutral". Chaotic neutral doesn't mean chaotic stupid. It doesn't mean Guy Fawkes either. Chaotic neutral generally = chaotic selfish.
I'm trying to run a CN character (a Tiefling, in the 3.5 sense - not the Eredar/Draenei ripoff 4e kind) in my D&D group now and it is a bitch trying to balance her criminal tendencies, the mutual unease between her and the rest of the populace, and her sense of self-preservation. Gehhh hard work.
Well more visually. I dunno, my thinking (and a lot of other people's, apparently) was that the visual design of the Tieflings had gotten veeeeeery similar to the Eredar (and that of the newly revamped Eladrin suspiciously similar to belves) was probably another sign of WotC's attempt to market more toward the MMO crowd (I haven't gotten to play it either - this is just what I've been able to find on teh intarwebs - but it seems some of the gameplay has been streamlined and in some places possibly drawn from WoW and other MMOs
