Well hello there! Welcome to Miz!
Choosing a place to start can be difficult for a lot of people, with so many great places around. Realistically speaking more than anything else, I suppose it would make sense to have your character spend at least time, in part, in Ravok, or wherever it was she died. (Even if it was only in the past or for a short spurt of time before moving on). However, you obviously don't have to stay in either place... it really depends on what you want to do. Or be surrounded by. If you want to be around nuits, for example, who sit around and study magic for a large portion of the day, then Sahova is for you. If you like a darker plot, or area, with tons of chaos and thieves and death, Ravok and Sunberth may work out pretty well. If you like pretty little islands surrounded by pretty blonde seers, try Mura. If you fancy cold weather, perhaps Avanthal... it all depends on what you want. You aren't limited in any way shape or form as long as you avoid cities not yet open for play- (Charbosi and Sultros, and then I think you need Tarot's permission for Nyka), and give enough time for your pc to travel between cities. From a practical standpoint however, you may want to find a pc who knows spiritism, and can make soulmist for you, or a pc who would be willing to learn. (As soon as you possess them they get spiritism points). As of now, the only two active members with spiritism that I know of are Hadrian and Aello. I know Aello is always looking for ghosty pcs, but I'm not sure about Hadrian. I'd ask, he is a pretty nice guy and travels around with a lot of other awesome players.
Last thing- you can't start with less than 5 pts in a skill. So you may want to adjust your CS =)
Have fun playing!
