"Morrowind?"

I've had this game since christmas and I'm playing with my fifth character, i haven't completed it I just getting a feel for who i should play as. My question is, where is everyone in the game???
For example level, guild positions, armour and weaponry and even gold if you want, because i'm trying to judge whether i'm playing the game well enough or whether i should up the ante.

Thanks Nomad, that helps, i will create a new character and try to base its major and minor skills upon those. With my current character i have to get stuck in with attacks and actually stab people up etc, i would much prefer to be able to wave my hands around and dispose of enemies with magical methods and minimal effort. In Balmora i once stole a gem from the mages guild worth 60,000 and was killed instantly by the lady standing right next to me who effortlessly zapped me in one fell swoosh. This is what i would like to be able to do as well as being able to pick-pocket, lock-pick. So major skills would be sneak, security and perhaps conjuration, mysticism etc?

Cheers.

At the beginning of the game when the guy asks you questions about who you are, choose the create your own stats option.

If you want to be a mage/thief I'd say:

MAJOR SKILLS
Security
Conjuration
Light Armour or Unarmoured
Blunt Weapon or Short Blade
Sneak

MINOR SKILLS
Marksman
Destruction
Athletics
Acrobatics
Block

Something like that. But it's up to you. Just create the character you want to be. If you want to be good at summoning phantoms to aid you in combat then choose Conjuration as a major skill. If you want to be a dead-eye with a bow then chose Marksman as a major skill, etc, etc.

The Shadow birth-sign is very useful for a mage/thief. I chose that one.

Any tips on how to create a character which is good at magic but also with skills good enough for being a part-time thief?

At the moment i am a level 8 Breton who is sign of the Shadow, and am not greatly pleased with the situation i am in as i have wiped out the entire popluation of certain clubs/ factions and i have gotten myself in a bit of trouble to say the least, but have never actually been arrested.

But i want to create a character good with magic and sneaking/security skills.

At the beginning which race, star sign etc should i merge to create a magician/thief character?

would appreciate feedback, thanks.

yeah i have started a few because i just wasn't happy with the set up.

I'm a level 50 something Redguard.
I've completed all the quests in the Thieves, Mages, Temple, Imperial Cult, Morag Tong Guilds.
I've finished the Nerevarine Prophecies - I am now Nerevar, so I've finished the main quest of the game.
Because I've defeated Dagoth Ur, I have all the most powerful weapons in the game.
My character is an expert in all forms of magic, especially conjuration, but I can do most things like water-walk, levitate, breath under water, invisibility by just casting a spell.

I now just look at the map, pick a place to go, and explore.
