I'm not sure what you're wanting as far as a "clever" backronym for RPC, but here are a few that I took in different directions. I generally figured it would be ideal to end it with "company" although there are a lot of options, everywhere from "children" to "conspirators". I'm sticking with Company since it will probably fit perfectly into the lore.

Probably the most "clever" one that I came up with was:
Recreate the Plot Company (or variants; Recreation of the Plot Company, Recreating the Plot Company, Recreators of the Plot Company, etc.)

Recreate is used three ways here:
1. Recreation refers to rebuilding something. In this case, it refers OOC to rebuilding roleplaying and the RP community.
2. Recreation is, of course, something you do for enjoyment, such as role-playing.
3. Recreation can refer IC to something that we plan to recreate in Eorzea. In this case, referred to as "the plot."

Plot, of course, can refer to a story's plot, which is something we will all create both individually and as a group. So Recreating the Plot, or RPing, refers to bringing the story back to the RPG. IC, the Plot would refer to an overarching plan by members of the Company, which could be a specific plan at some point, but could also be indefinitely vague, like, "the way." (Or maybe like "the force" for you Star Wars fans). "Farewell, and remember the plot." "The plot before all." etc. The plot could also refer to a physical plot, like a monument or piece of land, such as the Garlean-invaded Eorzea, or a specific spot picked by the RPC.

So there's a lot of value added to that one.

But while the more clever, admittedly it doesn't roll off the tongue too well, and I'm not sure which variation is the best. So feel free to bastardize it into something slightly less clever but more aesthetically pleasing. Alternatively, you could go with something purely for the aesthetic of it. For that you need merely throw together two words that sound good. Here are some that I've picked out:

Ring of
Rise of
Righteous
Rebels of
Rebellion
Radicals of
Reverent
Return of
Recreation of

Protection/Protectors
Pretending/Pretenders
the Path
the Plan
Pride
the Plot

Nearly any combination of those will net you something decent. I would like to hear other's opinions, and eventually have a short list to vote on.
