I've been trying a bunch of half-orc rogues ever since you mentioned that
rogue's haste self could make it a fast diver. Half-orc gives you 18/30
str and
18/10+ dex, allowing for three hits off the bat. Enchanting a longbow to
+9,+9
is handy, but there comes a point where the damage is lacking and rings of
damage start showing up, so going with a main gauche (+9,+9) just seems to
make
more sense. 
Admittedly, I haven't even gotten to the point where I can cast haste self
yet,
usually dying at around level 25 to a creature that I hadn't realized had
paralyze... 
(Potions of free action, anyone? More generally, potion of saving throw?)

It seems I can get a high-elf warrior or half-orc rogue to level 23 and
~1600'
in 100,000ish turns. 

Are your suicide divers immortalized in rgra somewhere?
