Looking for template suggestions

[DreadLord Lestat]

I want to make a new character and I want to use either macing, lumberjacking, or a thrower. I have looked up a lot of template ideas and not sure what I want to do so I am looking for suggestions. I would like to do any of those 3 skills. What templates might you suggest and why? How would you play it? The answers will help me and maybe stimulate different template ideas and discussions for others to reference.

I have a toon which is kind of half warrior and half resource gatherer with the new addition of fishing which I'm slowly working on.

100 mining
100 lumberjack
120 fishing (103 at the moment)
100 archer or swords I tend to swap between
100 tactics
100 anatomy
100 healing

I guess the first questions to ask are what do you want to use the character for and what other chars do you have?

I have tamers, mages, archers, crafters, bards and one melee character which is a Sampire. I am thinking back to my beginning time in UO and revisiting a couple of my favorite characters or trying something new. On Cats (still have them there) I have a macer and a lj/swords. They are both still pre-powerscrolls sitting at 700 skill points. I do not play there anymore so I am thinking of re-making one of them on Chessy. A lot of changes since then and looking to do something different. I have also been thinking about making a thrower as something that I have not tried before. I think they would all be fun so looking for templates that others have that may be fun and interesting, maybe different than the norm which I have been looking at lately.

Then I think you have many options open to you. The most notable would be a wraith or vamp thrower. Something like this:

120 Throwing
115 Bushido
100 Tactics
100 Anatomy
100 Healing
85 Chivalry
60 Spirit Speak
40 Necromancy

Or you could try a 4/6 macer paladin with 120 Chivalry. That would be my second choice.
