I really need help with all of that..No Idea about how the starting package/skills stuff works..or money, or any of that stuff. I seriously need a mentor here people!!

Well I think its a good thing you don't want to spend 6 hours on a Character Sheet because its going to take a few days. It took me three days before I even started my CS (character sheet) during those days I was reading everything about this site and its lore that I could get my hands on. Unfortunately for you this isnt a site where you can join and go. You have to research and read, a lot.

I think the Starting Guide details it pretty well, from start to finish with all the different links inside that you might need to move on.

    Step 1: Decide on a race, starting city and character concept (Read: What do you want your character to be? Perky bard? Depressed mercenary? Shy tailor?).

    Step 2: Research your race and city to be on the safe side. Research whatever else you need; if your character is a mage, for instance, you need to read up on magic as it's important that you understand how these things work before throwing yourself in head-first. Saves you a lot of trouble to be well prepared!

    Step 3: Post up a Character Sheet in their designated forum. You can use the pre-made CS templates in this thread if you don't want to get into making one of your own. You can do that later. Your CS really doesn't have to be pretty from the very beginning; as long as you get all the important details listed in the guide and the templates, you should be fine for a solid character. Design and such can come later, along with flowery fluff and pretty stuff.

    Step 4: Begin roleplaying once your CS is posted, and submit it for review in the meantime. If a moderator makes a note in your CS, keep your eye on it and amend the things you need to change as quickly as possible so your CS will eventually be good and ready to go! If your CS doesn't have comments on it, though, you're free to roleplay until someone does post a note on it.

... Then, ask any more questions you may have if it's confusing, still. The entire staff of Mizahar is more than happy to help and most of its members, too!
