So I've made my initial stats screen and i have a couple of queries about that and what's next

1) What is a Vagabond Hylian's Initial HP and SPL?
2) I choose the class of vagabond and earn the main class of bard, thief, or ranger right?
3) Which stats affect HP and SPL?
4) What innate talents does a Vagabond Hylian have, other than "FotG" (which i don't entirely understand)
5) Once I'm done setting up my character profile, where would you guys suggest i start? What items to get? Talents to acquire? You know the basics.

Thanks in advance, and i promise to get into character as soon as this stuff is cleared up. ^^

4. Innately? I'm pretty sure it's just FotG.

Kasei covered everything else. :P

HP is affected by your SPI, and you can also spend TP to get more strength, look for the skill Exceptional Strength in the Rules Set for details.

FotG, basically, is a healing spell. You use it that turn and you can't do anything else, and whoever the GM (Game Master) is rolls a die. If the roll is good, you are healed the equivelant of half your max HP. So if you have 40 HP, Favor of the Goddesses will always heal you 20 HP, regardless of how much damage you've taken. Hylians also get +3 to INT, which I think you've already taken care of.

You should post in whatever topics interest you, as long as it's open. For instance, I wouldn't jump into the middle of one of the Force of Gold topics or any others more than a few pages long without asking the maker of the thread first. However, there are certain topics like my Mercenary Booth that are always open to anyone. You should definitely do all the quests first thing though to get TP. These quests can be found all over Hyrule, and consist of finding a hidden item on one of the screens and returning it to it's owner in their respective topic.

As for what talents to get, it depends on what you want. You can use TP to boost your stats, to gain new abilities, or new magic. One of everyone's favorites is Dual Wield, so they can use two weapons, but Vagabonds have to pay extra TP for it for some odd reason. There are a few Vagabond-specific skills like Picking Locks and such that you may be interested in as well. It's all a preference thing.

Items? I would suggest armor. There's a shop in Ruto Town where you can get a jerkin, that's the strongest defense a Vagabond can get. Then it's down to preference again, whether you would like to buy a projectile weapon like a Slingshot, or an instrument so you can play healing songs and such.

Let's kill two birds with one stone and answer those questions together (I love it when we can do that :) ). Look at the top right-hand corner of the display - not so far as to where the Rules Set, World Map, and all that stuff is, though. Look just above the picture of North Castle. You'll see a compass there; position your mouse over N, S, E, or W to move from one area to another. Not all of them are necessarily links; for example, to escape North Castle all you can do is click on the E. But other places will have pathways leading any of the four compass point directions.

And yes, we can't get to Saria Town - however, Reg the Shadowmaster has relocated up here in the North, in an area referred to as the Windmill.

Heh . . . recently, more moderator, though goodness knows I'd much rather be RPing. But I'm in college, so around this time in the semester I have to devote a lot of time to school work (heck, I should be working right now . . .).

. . . I'm sure you get the picture . . .

Eh, I think we're all fine either way. Doesn't matter how you ask the question as long as it gets asked.

Oh, just realized, your question never got answered. To move around the castle, look for a link in the Courtyard that says 'Traveling within the Castle' That will give you links to every part of the Castle.
