As a first character, I generally recommend going with a Mage, Shaman, Druid, or Necro. Unless you play during primetime or are coming here with a friend or two that you plan to duo-trio with, you might run into times where you'll have to be self sufficient. Any of these choices give you the option of running off on your own and not needing a group.
(keep in mind, Shaman will be the slowest at soloing, especially until lvl 34 but also the most capable of getting into groups at later levels)
If you want to play a Wizard you can also do it from level 1 without having to depend on a group (and frankly, there will be a lot of times when you won't be getting a group), but it would be easier on you if you had a few hundred PP in seed money. Wizards are 100% dependent on mana and having a higher max mana pool for them can mean the difference between finishing a mob off or dieing/having to gate. Also, being able to afford SoW pots helps too.
To this end, even if you only play a mage or necro to lvl 20 or 30 and end up getting bored, they're capable of providing the seed money to make your life easier.

If MMORPG players were around when God said, "Let there be light" they'd have called the light gay, and plunged the universe back into darkness by squatting their nutsacks over it.
