i chose mine based on the fact i thought charisma was going help me become well liked via npc corps and help me in reverse engineering/science type stuff...it took 6 years for reverse engineering to appear in any form and in that time i got stuck with 26 points in charisma attribs lol the remap was a god send

I chose Gallente because my brother was Gallente. I wanted to be Caldari, and didn't know anything about the game.
*edit* Talking about my first character, this one is minmatar.

Caldari because their back ground as the Underdogs during the Gallante-Caldari War. Merchandisers because at the time I was bored and felt silly.
Second Character Minmatar. Siebester Tribe because they were the violent and hard core rebellious types.
third Character Ammatar who I roleplay as a distant cousin of my Minmatar. Chose him to show a loyalist side of the tribe which was Loyal to the Empire.

I chose amarr because I had a rl friend who played minmatar and caldari, and a rl friend who played gallente. The laser buff had just come out, and amarr were finally cool to play (about 2 years ago) so I went with them.
Chose Khanid because they have the cyber knights.

When you first started playing eve why did you choose the race/bloodline etc you did?
Personally I read all the flavour text and quite liked the idea of being a member of the space french. I'm a pure blood Gallente pilot who parents were activists and that just kind of sounded like fun.
In hindsight I would have looked at all the different races, realised the flavour text meant nothing and not spent as long as I did specialising in Gallente skills. I mean, would anyone train hybrids if they knew how much they sucked?
I chose Gallente as a race because it is closest to my ideology of freedom and tolerance.
However, I mostly fly Amarr because they are nber :-)

I started Amarr because I like their background their polarity, and their beautiful ship designs (Caldari ships look like some weird Frankenstein geometrics lesson to me... :P)

chose Gallente because are the nearest to my personal way of thinking.
Caldari? just some capitalists scum.
Amarr? slavers and in service of a fail-God.
Minmatar? too tribal and violent-looking.
I just wish Gallente ships were usefull for something, looks like i should have started playing before when gallente were cooler.
(srsly any Gallente ship have at least one stronger counterpart from at least 1 of the other races)

I can't honestly remember whether Lhanisa's role came first, or emerged after I decided to play a Khanid Cyber Knight, but I'll just assume they were close enough together to work as a full answer here.
Lhanisa is the end result of me trying to pick out the most challenging role I could think of to RP in the game. Now, granted, knowing more about the PF of EVE now than I did a year ago I could probably think up some more challenging concepts, but this was what I ended up with back then. A former Amarr Navy pilot turned civil dissident capsuleer journalist, advocating the (true) independence of the Khanid people from the Amarr empire.
Basically, what I decided to play ended up being a character advocating a cultural revival of a people who've been under the Amarr's thumb for (if I recall correctly) millenia. Certainly not the easiest character I've ever decided to play, and I'm hoping I'll get the chance to actually involve myself in EVE and play the role I picked out a full year ago, when I first played.

I chose Amarr because:
-I love their ship designs. I feel that they are the best damn looking ships in the game.
-Lasers.
I chose Khanid because:
-Standard Amarrian and Ni-Kunni weren't brilliant looking, back in the day.
-I could have the Khanid hat/helmet affair instead of hair, something I would pay Aurum to get back.
-Cyber Knight!
-Did I mention how bad Amarrian and Ni-Kunni looked?

Caldari Achura because you used to get less charisma than anyone else. Too bad the remaps forced me to put that 1 awesome point back into charisma..

Someone explained to me that:
-"playing eve as Minmatar is like going down a flight of stairs taped to an office chair, firing an Uzi"
-playing Minmatar was hard mode
-all the ships were duct taped together
I had no clue the relevance of this information but it all sounded like my type of race.
(Actually, at the time brutor had the highest percep/willpwr possible. After having someone explain attributes and the weighting for gunnery, missiles and spaceship command... it was an easy pick.)

It was eight years ago, I don't remember anymore.
I only have some very hazy recollections of looking through the attribute/skill combos you could get from each bloodline (Yes I was a noob then. Still am but that's another story).

I went Gallente since I liked the background story, and wanted to play with Drones.
Although I can't remember the background story at all now lol
Maybe time for some light reading ;)

"..technologicaly superior, second only to the Jovians.."
"...with brutal efficiency..."
Those lines along with the fact that they don't believe in democracy was the deciding factor.
I immediately dismissed minmatars as nothing more than tribal savages that deserve nothing but slavery,
Amarrians would be nice if they weren't religious fanatics.
Gallente were ok-ish, but meh...kinda like Elves in space.
