Nah all that is up to you.
Just don't put to many points in charisma, it's barely used.

Basically; if you are into the 'fluff' look at the back story of each race and pick the one you like. There are no factions, it is free for all pvp sandbox. You are also not locked to using the ship types and weapon types of the race you choose. You can train for anything and everything no matte what you choose. Only the hardcore roleplayers in the game really care about that stuff. Other than that it just comes down to character appearance.

The short version
Amarr - Mostly laser weapons with missiles/drones as secondary weapons. Primarily armor tanked
Caldari - Mostly missiles, with hybrid turrets and drones as secondary weapons. Primarily shield tanked ships
Gallente - Mostly hybrid turrets, with drones and missiles as secondary weapons. Mostly armor tanked
Minmatar - Mostly projectile weapons, with missiles and drones as secondary weapons. Mostly shield tanked, some armor tanked.

Generally Minmatar are faster/agile than the others. Most seem to prefer Minmatar ships for pvp. Gallente are a close second for me, and the race I started as; they are generally slower, but usually pack the most punch.

It doesn't matter what you choose though. You can train for whatever you want later on. I can now fly all ships from frigate to battlecruiser of all 4 races. Starting off you should stick to one race though, as it takes a loooooong time to get to where I'm at. If you start to  look at pirate faction ships, they combine skills from two of the normal races and get bonuses from both :)

Come to the dark side of gaming. There is no harsher game than Eve. Where the GM's laugh at you for being stupid and griefing, scamming, suicide ganking and everything is alowed. You just got to love it!

Race doesnt matter, take whatever you find cool, and train the rest later on..
Tho plan where you want the game to take you in the beginning

Sadly you're over 20 yrs old Toby, and therefore will certainly die of old age before you get to see all the vast EVE universe can offer. It's a 'black hole time sync' and all who enter are doomed!

Choosing what you want to do is maybe the biggest part.

I live in .0 sec, and mainly do smallscale pvp and roaming around for fights. For income I do planetary interaction, trading and run Incursions. Incursions are like raiding sort of, and planetary interaction is kinda like a tycoon game where you set up extractors and processors to make materials and sell them.

You may want to stay in highsec early in the game though, where it is relatively safe, but there is nothing stopping a low skillpoint character from jumping straight into low/null-sec pvp. A frigate with a warpdisrupter and a microwarpdrive is all you need :)
