There are 4 spells that can help you to get around, all in the Mysticism skill. You can 'fast travel' using public transport (Silt striders, mage guild has a teleport service) or spells. For storage, just find somewhere you like and throw everything on the floor. However, NPCs won't pick up stuff you drop on the ground ever.You can't just dump everything into a single chest It's probably not a good idea for a character focused on heavy armor, blunt weapons and destruction magic to join the Thieves guild, which requires your stealth related skills to reach certain thresholds if you want to progress. Advancing in Guilds requires you to meet certain skill and attribute requirements.You can only pick one out of the three Great Houses: Redoran, Hlaalu or Telvanni. You also can't stay in both the Fighter's and Thieves Guild, as they are naturally opposed, without some quest maneuvering. Joining two opposing religions probably won't end up that well. Stock up on healing items and make sure you have decent gear if you're going into somewhere you feel might contain a challenge. Enable distant land in OpenMW to see further. Pay attention to NPC directions and your surroundings.

Morrowind doesn't have a quest marker.

A higher strength will increase the damage of strength based weapons like Long Blade.

The attribute governing that skill (Strength, Willpower, etc).

Your skill in the weapon or spell (Long blade, Blunt, Destruction, etc).

Whether you successfully hit your opponent is based on three things: This makes archery bad because not only do you need to aim right, but missing due to dice rolls will waste your ammo. There will be many times where your weapon seems to hit the enemy, but you hear a woosh sound because you failed the dice roll and didn't hit. This means that your chance to hit is based not only on if your weapon visually connected with the enemy, but also if a dice roll says you did. However, stamina will impact nearly everything you do, and having no stamina (probably because you were running) will make you suck in combat.

Morrowind is much, much harsher in the beginning when compared to later games.
