Subsequent characters not starting in the tutorial

[zoran]

After exploring Hydlaa a bit with one character, I decided to go and remake a new character. This one skips the tutorial stage though, and starts directly in Hydlaa. Is this intentional? The tutorial messages are still appearing, and the character has nothing (no trias, no items) to start with.

Yes, only the first character on the account goes through the tutorial.   The other stuff you listed will be fixed in due time.
