I'll avoid DDHe though, because if you get something you can't pacify in the first floor you're dead. Probably I'm going to try a Centaur, but I wanted to also avoid using Berserker if I could, because I already won that... keep the suggestions coming, I am very thankful <3
Well, first of all, you can escape from most things if you can't pacify them (except things like killer bees ughs they're nasty early spawn for a He).
But if you're scared of that DD is still probably one of the thoughest guy in the first floors (well all the game) because among all things you always start with your wand of hw and with Ne/EE (or Gl/Fi if you really want) -> Makhleb you have also a good book to zap things from afar (especially Ne because you get undead shield from turn 1 and vampiric draining on xl3).
But a Ce/HO/Mi/DD BE has still probably highest probability to get to lair.
Also remember troll! Every Tr with any background (probably, if not going as Be, Hu is the easiest as you get 5 things of kill anything up Lair) is easy as shit because claws! And Hp! And Regen! And Claws! (as long you play not bad enough)
