Deathknell!

Started at level 1
Finished at level 6

Ok, now you're up and running it's time to get on with the leveling. As an undead you start in a crypt (har har) so head up to the surface. You will get a quest as soon as you get upstairs; Rude Awakening. This directs you to you're 'starting area' and Shadow Priest Sarvis can be found inside the first building on your left.

As I was impatient and I wanted my Imp straight away, I did that quest first.
[3] Piercing the Veil
Objectives : Bring Venya Marthand 3 Rattlecage Skulls.

The Rattlecage skeletons are just down the path after you go through the town. You can find level 2 ones around, but with a few Shadowbolts and some swift daggering, I had no real issues taking level 3's. I got my 3 skulls out of 4 mobs...

Now I had my Imp, I hit the real quests. I did the following two at the same time as both the Zombies and the Bats and Wolves are in the same area.. sort of.

[2] The Mindless Ones
Objectives : Kill 8 Mindless Zombies and 8 Wretched Zombies.
Rewards : 6 Armor Cloth Gloves or 5 Armor Cloak.

[2] The Damned
Objectives : Collect 6 Scavenger Paws and 6 Duskbat Wings.
Rewards : 4 Armor Cloth Bracer or some old leather belt.

Once I had done those two, I returned to hand them in. It should be noted that you can't pick up 'The Damned' until you are level 2, but if you did the Imp quest first like me, the killing plus hand in dings you. At level 2 you also get Immolate, and I found pulling with that as well as sending my Imp in at the same time was more than enough fire power. A couple of dagger swings and they never lasted long, a great way to keep almost constant full mana for killing non stop.

[3] Rattling the Rattlecages
Objectives : Kill 12 Rattlecage Skeletons
Rewards : 7 Armor Cloth Boots, Leather Chest or Mail Pants.

I collected the above quest when handing in the other two. These are the same Rattlecage Skeletons you killed for your Imp quest. Killing those actually dinged me level 4 so I went back to train. While I was training I picked up Scavenging Deathknell, which, given it's a simple collect quest, I did that before heading back out. The items you need look like stacks of boxes and I found mine in the area just to the right at the end of the town. They are in the houses, outside etc, and as all the mobs are non-aggro, you should have no problem collecting them.

[4] Night Web's Hollow
Objectives : Kill 10 Young Night Web Spiders and 8 Night Web Spiders.
Rewards : 10 Armor Cloth Chest item, Mail chest, leather legs.

[5] Marla's Last Remains
Objectives : Bring Samuel Fipps' Remains to Marla's Grave, then return to Novice Elreth.
Rewards : XP!

The spiders you need are in a cave up on the left part of the newbie area. If you are heading out of town, turn left after the grave and follow it up. The Young Night Web Spiders are non-aggro and all around the outside, but the larger Night Web's are inside the cave and are aggro to you. Once you have killed those, take a wide left birth on your way back past the last camp area before the gateway to the rest of Tirisfal Glades. There's a set up there with some dead guys and that's where you will find Samuel Fipps. He's non aggro to start with and easy to kill, once he's dead grab his remains and place them in the fresh grave in the town. The grave area is beside the building with your trainer in it and is easy to spot by the mounding dirt.

[4] The Scarlet Crusade
Objectives : Collect 12 Scarlet Armbands from Scarlet Converts and Scarlet Initiates.
Rewards : Your choice of weapons... I took the dagger.

[5] The Red Messenger
Objectives : Kill Meven Korgal and return any information you find
Rewards : A staff or shield, neither of which you can use at this stage.

The Scarlets are on the opposite side of the newbie area to the spiders, head right if you are facing out of the town. They are up in the top right corner and are easy to kill. The drop rate is pretty good so once you have you're 12 head back to grab the second stage, The Red Messenger. Meven is back where you just where, at the single tent away to the side. I single pulled him no problem.

Once you hand that in you get a quest to deliver a letter to Brill and that's it, you are done with the newbie area! Woo hoo! I was only 4 bubbles from level 6 when I completed these quests so I went and killed a few more Scarlet Crusaders for good measure and to ding. When you are ready though, start making your way to Brill, not missing the quest from the guy at the gateway, and the one at the first T intersection you come too. If you stick to your right at both intersections and continue following the path, you eventually hit Brill. Be on the look out for a big green gooey dude on the way too as he has a quest as well, he does wander though.
