Also, (after being introduced to the prince) talk to:
1 The Primogen of your clan
2 The Sheriff
3 The Scourge
4 The keeper of Elyseum.
Offer to work for them until 1-2 of them say yes. As a new player with a physical character, you want to be someone's flunky, or you will have difficulty getting involved in plots. If there is a bad guy in the city, it is MUCH more common for the sheriff and 2-3 of his guys to go deal with it quietly than for him to walk into the main room and say "does anyone want to help fight an X?" Also, status is everything, and you usually get status by helping powerful people.
