I'm a Redguard, old looking huge black mofo with browngreyish beard and thick long hair, called Shaka Zulu

I'm eager to check the Red guard lands, they are in the game right? Because at white run, I met two red guard dudes looking for a red guard woman.
And thanks, will do the first dragon mission then, so far I just been busy goofing around and exploring in a sandboxy kinda way (mainly spent the time on 3-4 bandit camps, and the dragon claw/dragon age quest thing, plus companions quest).
Btw, I havent been a thief or a criminal in any way (except take one worse from dead bandits, to mount it count as stealing apparently), does that hamper me in my coin making? Because in overall I earned just around 4k gold so far, have 2k of it left. Feel bit poor-ish hehe. That dragon claw trader was most generous so far with 400 gold, rest at best give me 100, thats nada.
Also, what to do with the problem of weight? I have to throw alot of stuff when I'm finding new stuff, kinda gets annoying. The few times I'm in a city with a trader, they barely offer shitty prices for my stuff.
