Re: Non-combat characters
I'd suggest a conversation between you and him about what sorts of things he might find fun & interesting to have such a game be about.
Certainly it's quite possible to have non-fighter non-wizard characters and have fun with them.
A shopkeeper who just trades good will want to look at the talents Business Sense, Recognize Value, Assess Value, and probably Literacy. He might want to travel and be in the import/export business and/or acquiring interesting artifacts for scholars or collectors, or components for mechanicians, chemists, alchemists and enchanters, or other interesting goods that require traveling about the world - that can provide endless gaming fun, for players whom it interests, as well as possibly endless other plot hooks for players who want other things to do.
The character might also be a craftsman of various types, and/or perhaps a guild member, or a wizard who makes & sells goods and/or services.
