Recommend a Class

I'm going to give the trial a run in the next few days, can anyone recommend a class (no realm preference) for me to try? In WOW I liked playing a druid, being able to do a bit of everything with high endurance (who else can manage a solo 30 minute fight?) was fun. It doesn't look like there's a full jack-of-all-trades in DAOC, so I think one of the healer/tank hybrids would be what I'm looking for. I definately want to be able to fight solo, healing/tank hybrid obviously has a spot in a group too, would like good PVP survivability and escape abilities, not really concerned with dealing out the big damage or AOEs. I'm leaning away from the mage types, but if there's one of them that seems like it might fit recommend away.
I'll probably have a second character that's one of the stealth classes, sneaking around can be fun but I'm not always in the mood for it.

Given that you are only going to do the trial and what you said you want, then I would go with a Warden. You will be a tank and have healing powers. You will also have "bubble." This will get you into groups because it will absorb a melee hit instead of the target taking damage. You can pulse this spell so as to greatly minimize damage.
If you buy the game or the expansions, then you might want to look at playing a Vampiir. They are the best solo class in the game. You will never need to stop and take a rest.
