High Elf or Erudite Magician. High Elf if you want to be in gfay and have easy access to Crushbone, Erudite if you want to be close to Blackburrow. Avoid Dark Elf, you'll be KOS in too many places and it sucks having to carefully con every humanoid to make sure you can walk by them. Eventually you will forget/get lazy/slip up and you'll die to Guard Wandersaround. If you're high level, the XP loss from such an avoidable slipup can be a heartbreaker.
Solo XP is by far better than group XP and is always available, and Magician is easier to play than freakin' WoW.
25 points into STA, 5 into INT. None of your other stats really matter in the long run.
You won't get to be in all the glamorous party places solo (the "party zones" are just too heavily camped for a solo to scrape off enough kills to be competitive) but honestly, you'll be outleveling them twice as fast as the poor grouplings are, especially with the new hybrid group xp penalty. And if you want to group for some reason, most groups will be happy to leech off you.
EDIT: DO NOT BE A WARRIOR.
