First, I couldn't find a board for it so I figured I'd post here.

Thanks for the advice Mourn Yauntyyr and Lifetime. My curiousity got the best of me and I picked it up, and it's actually pretty cool.

I was wondering if I could get some beginning tips from anyone. No spoilers, just some advice on how one should develop a character. I've never played a game like this so I could use a little help.

I do have some specific questions though.

I've been wandering around the hive for like the past 4 hours doing a few fedex quests and whatnot. I picked up that old guy with the zerth blade, and I'm looking for that mage. I heard that she's the person you have to talk to in order to change your class to a mage. I was thinking of changing to a mage because I figure I need Int anyway for dialogue and Cha for interaction and so I could focus on Int, Wis, and Cha, and be a mage. Is that an advisable choice for a beginner. I'd stay a fighter, but then I'd essentially have to work on all my attributes. What's a good way to develop a character for a good experience? And where's the mage? If I get her, should I even be a mage? I'll have her and the Zerth blade guy which is 1 1/2 mages...

Also, I got those prayer beads for that guy with lines on his face and he's offering to teach me about weapons, but then he's talking about limited talents and whatnot, what does this guy mean and what should I do with him?

Thanks for any help.
