Character rolls.........ingage.
Do you mean your favourite fighting styles of each character? If so, I have Balthier and Basch as attackers, Vaan attacker/buffer, Fran buffer/magicker and Ashe and Penelo magickers. Plus everybody knows some white magic.
Given that everybody can know the same stuff its hard to assign roles. Still, I tried.
Vaan ~ Attacker with a short sword. Occasionally I use him as a thief, but I get annoyed switching his gambits over when I want him to attack.
Balthier ~ Attacker with a spear + support.
Fran ~ Archer + support.
Basch ~ Attacker with a ninja sword.
Ashe ~ Attacker with a dagger.
Penelo ~ A mage.
Though, as I said, they all know enough magic to deal with uncertainties and to heal each other quite well should something untoward happen.
Vaan - Tank
Basch - Attacker/Support
Ashe - Support/Healer
Penelo/Balthier/Fran - Revivers (learn Arise)
It worked quite well for me, in situations like megabosses the only thing I changed was that revivers used phoenix downs for speed, Arise sometimes took too long and they would die while casting.
Note: This is due to my style of Vaan/Bach/Ashe - lv. 99, all others 15-25 :D
My party had Team A - Magick and Team B - Technique, this way I always had MP for quickening, summoning and healing. Each team had a tank, a ranged weapon guy/ gal and a healer
Noting everyone buffs themselves except where an area effect spell can be used, which is done by Basch since he uses the least MP during battle.
Basch - Damage Dealer
Ashe - Support (rarely attacks, when she does, it's ranged)
Balthier - Tank (where appropriate), secondary damage dealing and support
Everyone else is "SWEET ZOMBIE JESUS THE MAIN PARTY IS DEAD, REVIVE OR RUN!".
Ohh! Nice thread! Lets see...

I generally kept Vaan, Basch and Penelo out if I was fighting a boss or something difficult.
It's interesting how everyones are completely different.
On my first playthrough:
Vaan -> Thief (early), endgame -> Ninja
Daggers, later ninja swords & daggers, light armor, steals, and black magic at later levels.
Balthier -> Paladin
Axes, sometimes guns, heavy armor, white magic
Fran -> Black Mage
bows, mystic armor, black & time magic.
Basch -> Dark Knight
Swords, Heavy Armor, Arcane Magic & Souleater
Ashe -> Red Mage
Swords, Spears, Katanas, Heavy Armor, Mystic Helms, proficient in White and Black Magic
Penelo -> White Mage
Staves & Rods, Mystic Armor, White & Green Magic.
On a recent game i started:
Vaan -> Black Mage
Balthier -> Dragoon
Fran - Ranger, later a Ninja
Basch - Warrior
Ashe - White Mage
Penelo - Arcane Mage
weapons got changed up a bit when I started getting the lolstrong ones
Vaan- spears
balthier- katanas
fran- maces
basch- axes
ashe- 1-h swords
penelo- 2-h swords
and since it's end game, they just cast whatever they want.
On my first game:
Vaan- sissy run-away guy
Fran-Bitch with a Bow
Baltheir-whatever he fancied
Basch-The Human Tank
Ashe-swords and magic
Penelo- not caring enough
i just started my new game though and roles are yet determined
