I personally recommend a dual-wield dagger Rogue that focuses on cunning. It's a bit tricky to start with, but with the right build it's practically unkillable later on (especially if you also play Awakening), and dishes out more damage than any other class in the game.

I'd avoid the sword and shield warrior for a first playthrough, as they are very boring characters that are mainly for controlling aggression and tanking.

I'd also avoid a mage playthrough for the first run, since there are so many spells, it's easy to gimp yourself with a poor build.
I normally always play a Mage type class in RPG games. Is there no way to respec my class if I spend a point incorrectly? I gather this is a party based game, so which classes of companions will I come across? Don't want to duplicate, want to have nice balance. So if there is a kick ass Mage companion, then will play as something else.

I like the idea of dual wielding. How does "cunning" come into play?
