I'd wager that you probably aren't talking to the right people. There seem to be tons of plots flying all around, though at present there doesn't seem to be any particular 'community' oriented plot -- this is fine, they have their seasons. Rather than clique plots, I have seen several plots belonging to/revolving around free companies -- my own included. It's largely considered a safe approach given the different views on certain roleplay elements expressed by the community. It's not a bad thing, it's just how it works! What you perhaps need to do is go shopping through FC plots to see if any FC is running one that you may join. It's going to take some reaching out.
Regarding your character, Â you don't have to justify who/what/how he is, just play him and have fun when the opportunity arrives! Enjoy the interactions and keep ooc communication open so that you can keep abreast on HAPPENINGS.
And hey, even if it isn't a long-spanning plot, forming meaningful relationships with other characters is a great way to become connected with things that happen to them, and to allow for the germination of organic plots -- and at times those are the best! For that purpose, I happily offer my own lug to get things started, if you want.
Last but most definitely not least, you can start your own plot! It ain't easy, but with the right folks it's usually fun as hell. It can be a forum thing that goes into the game, a game thing with a thread on the forum, purely in game, purely forum...anything goes! I'm sure you can find something, and I'm sure there are people here who would be glad to help.
