I strongly suggest you roll a dwarf. Your melee damage will be so bad as a Half Elf, as well as your HP being lower. You won't be able to carry as much loot(very important as a starting character) and will be encumbered easier by your armor. You may not even be able to wear a full set of bronze as a Half Elf.
I rolled a erudite SK, & leveled him to 20, did the same thing with a troll, and the difference was HUGE. I was able to pull 1 or 2 mobs in oasis as the erudite before needing a break for HP. While on the troll using the same gear I was able to pull up to 5 or 6 mobs in a row before needing a rest for MANA.
Additionally dwarfs receive +5 MR and +5 PR.
