I played a brass genasi (mechanically warforged) wildfire druid who wore salamander scale armor and whose fire bolts were swarms of burning dragonflies.

My arcane archer was roughly modelled on Arjuna and the Indian mythic epics, so the arcane shots were fluffed as astras.

And I had a tabaxi armed with a macuahuitl, although I don't recall what mechanics it actually used.
