Want to make an RPG similar to FF or BoF

This idea, is a basic idea I had about 15 minutes ago lol. I was thinking of designing my own game but I don't want to make yet another Zelda clone, I want something similar to the old school FF/BoF NES/Gameboy RPGs

something like this http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20091206020955/finalfantasy/images/6/6a/Mobile-screen_(FFA).jpg

I was thinking a start would be
 - a town where you can buy/sell weapons/armour/shields/Potions and restore HP at the Inn.
 - a series of fields with enemies to kill

I want the following at the bottom of the screen

___________________________________________________________________
: Level 1 : HP 10/15 : Str  2 : Def 3  : Sword 01 : Armour 01 : Shield 01 : Gold 5 :


I can create the town, & the world fields

Just need to know to everything else lol
kinda like how to get the merchants to buy and sell from you, and how to do a level up system. also does Stencyl support formulas?

i.e.
( strength * weapon power ) / Enemy Defence = Damage dealt.

also, how do you make the screen follow the "Hero" so I can make the fields 50x50 square but show only 15x15 with the hero at the center.

I hope the above makes sense.

Are you paying for the work? Because if not, the chances you'll get someone to do this for you are like, nil.

not asking for someone to do it, just to show me where to find tutorials so I can learn how to do it.

I see, that'd make sense. Check out stencylpedia, do the crash course, and then go to kongregate and do abigayl's tutorials (i think i spelled that right)
