Without outright repeating what others have said, it's also pretty easy to find rp encounters in any of the starter cities, although I still find Ul'dah to be the most active of the three. If you are still getting a feel for just what direction you want to take your character some random encounters first night help to focus you a bit.Â
As for the FCs from my perspective, I can think of too many that I personally enjoy, and I would suggest looking into them after you know how you intend for your character to be. It may sound unhelpful but knowing your character fits before entering a FC is pretty awesome, at least imo.
