I looked on you're link, but I dont completely understand (I'm a wee bit slow) Also, does the name of your guild refrance an inn in world of warcraft? or is that just a coincidence XD
Sorry for the wait!
 I got caught up in our RP of the night and didn't check the RPC til now. To answer your question, Rini and Ra (the FC leader and the co-founding officer) are friends who came from WoW so I wouldn't be surprised if that was an inspiration for the name, though the theme of the inn and tavern we run is intended to be a tribute to the heroes who fought the primals, while also being an homage to the real-world Cafe Eorzea in Japan (which itself is an homage to the in-game Carline Canopy, which we're well aware is a bit of a circular meta joke at this point).
As for the type of RP we do, we do all kinds! At our core the FC is about the inn and tavern and their operation, which is partly for the sake of our own internal RP (giving our members a fun site to RP with characters whose jobs around the inn and tavern give them good reasons to interact with each other), and partly for the sake of external RP (we host public event nights where players who aren't in the FC bring their characters and enjoy participating as tavern patrons, or perhaps as visitors who will be enjoying some other fun non-tavern entertainment such as a poetry contest).
Outside of that, we also have scholastic scenes, in which characters will play teacher and host a class for other characters (and perhaps their players) to learn things about the game. We also have had a few "adventure" type scenarios where characters go together and roleplay through an investigation and even a battle (using writing rather than game attacks) to resolve a story. Some of the characters in the FC, such as mine, are mostly suited for that kind of situation rather than waiting tables.
For someone new, I'd recommend a simple approach of taking on a more commonplace role such as a member of the wait staff, and then as you become more comfortable and experienced with RP (which won't take long), then you can stretch yourself a little by choosing to become involved in other types of story content or scenes.
I noticed you had also messaged me privately, too, but wanted to respond here first (others may be watching this forum thread and find the response useful, too).
