Hello and welcome to the RPC Salvi!
Thats a shame that you don't have anyone to join up with from day one here... but have no fear there are plenty lurking around, likely at this very moment! I'm going to start off with a few links that should help familiarize you with the RPC and some of the groups held here.
As a note the RPC supports both Balmung and Gilgamesh as RP servers, Balmung being the results of a server merge in 1.0 with Besaid, and Gilgamesh being the result of a vote before the release of "A Realm Reborn." but onto the information!

Here is a generic welcome post that outlines a bit of info about the RPC as a whole as well as a few key resources (the wiki, lantern and calendar as a note.) A good thing to start you off, fairly short.
If you don't mind a bit of a longer read, this RP handbook by Eva is marvelous, touching on nearly every topic. Though quite lengthy I find there are few better foundations for your roleplaying experience.

(As a note you can use the index hidden in the spoiler bar to skip ahead of some areas if you feel confident about certain aspects.)
But onto the communities! maybe you just want to go out and meet some people.

The "Coalition" is a Gilgamesh based OOC hub for roleplayers of all stripes, get to know where, when and while people are in areas, get to know the people behind the characters, maybe share a few ideas.

"Intermission" Is the Balmung OOC RP hub, open to all and home to a great many, a center of communication for a great number of people!

"Balmungs Finest" is a Balmung (duh!) based Linkshell centered on PVE, if you have a dungeon to do, there are people here who will do it with you! from Sastacha to Garuda, though be warned, Aurum Vale is a pit of despair!
Hrm, that aside, not to shamelessly promote too much, but there is an event on the coming Saturday centered around getting people together new and old on Balmung:

No requirements to attend, you can just drop in poke around then plod off if you like, or pull up a chair and grab a drink.
Phew! that was a lot, hopefully didn't scare you off in the mean time... I think you'll have the chance to meet a lot of interesting people on both servers. Feel free to ask any questions you might have about the game or the community, maybe make a post on the forums about something you're interested in, take it all in.
Best of luck in Eorzea and watch out for the moogles, they like to snatch trinkets.
