hmm...
i only recently got into WoW too so i dont know much
but i DO know u can create more than one character
per account. (i have 4 for ex)
And about the whole fire/ ice mage thing:
From what i understand, you can use both types of
spells in the begining but as you start progressing into
the game you either concentrate on fire (offensive)
or ice (defensive)--most ppl pick the fire one, but there
is a big need for ice mages as well since there isnt many.
And make sure you make a Priest and level him/her up
well b/c they are invaluable to quests with friends.
thats all i know
hope i helped man
