Greetings and as the ones before me have said welcome to the RPC Ficus
I nosed around your previous posts and have to say I really like the art thread. There are a lot of talented people here and its always nice to see more join. The opportunity to see a representation of how the owner sees their character, the subtle expressions, the colours, its all very informative. my own artistic skills aren't impressive so i've turned to making commissions instead. I suggest regularly updating your art thread maybe once a month or so, there are undoubtedly plenty who would be interested.
Theres also a favorite site of mine
https://artistsnclients.com
That serves is an intermediary between clients and artists (as the name says T_T) allowing security for both sides (auto water marking, only release upon payment ect.)
But onto the deluge of links! maybe you've seen this stuff, maybe you haven't hopefully at least some small nugget of information will come out of it! (Also, nice wiki entry a lot of people don't realize just how much traffic those pages get!)

Fairly simple, gives you a bit of information about the RPC as well as talks about the major parts of the RPC, Lantern, Wiki, Linkshell hall etc.

This is an RP handbook, and while a great deal of the information is likely a re-tred to "old hat" RPers, there are some sections that are exclusive to FFXIV, namely The Echo & Teleportation. The rest is certainly worth a skim over if nothing else for the well framed ideas and examples provided.
But maybe you just want to jump right in, which is certainly a charming idea! I'm surprised neither Faye, nor Rinh mentioned their respective organizations "Harbingers of Dawn" And "The Travelers Guild"/ Europa / the other ones whos name I always forget T_T. Anyways!

"Intermission" - fairly standard, OOC linkshell fileld with RPers just.. well talking really, about all manner of things. as a warning, some of the topics can be a bit.. adult, but there's also a lot of information on where people are, what they might be up to an all that jazz. Plenty of Pearl holders, so getting in touch with them should be fairly easy
But perhaps you just want to have a group to smash your face against HM Titan with, and I think its an excellent bonding experience.. HM titan that is, face smashing can be a bit hit or miss.

"Balmungs Finest" Is another OOC linkshell, but is dedicated to group content. Braylox, Stone Vigil, the much maligned Aurum Vale and beyond. It focuses on 'balmung first' grouping people on the server, working together and powering through when other "Pugs" might drop group at the first hiccup.
An finally a moment to plug my own initiative (shameless I know..)

The Coffer and Coffin even on the coming Saturday is open to all, any person, and clothes, any time (almost.) The last event got quite large, and while it had its peaks and valleys of activity, I like to think it helped a lot of people get a feel for the different groups and size of the player base. Perhaps you can stop in, maybe sneak into the corner.
Whelp, thats about all I can think of for the moment. I hope that you know the offers of those above me are quite sincere, there are many out there willing to help, to get to know people and to offer their time and answer any questions you might have.
Best of luck in Eorzea, hope to see you around
