If you end up on Faydwer as a Gnome, Dwarf, High Elf or Wood Elf (EDIT: Or even a half elf!)... consider the mail delivery quest from Felwithe to Kelethin over killing the local wildlife, it will get you to level 6 or so a lot faster and you'll have gold in your pockets for the spells you might need, or equipment if not!
Good luck
