Hello Broken, and welcome to the RPC!
I used to play on Sarganatas as well! actually Lindblum before the server merger in 1.0... but thats besides the point! good to see you making the hop into the Roleplaying world. Just want to check before I start posting too much info, is your RP alt going to be on Balmung or Gilgamesh? or will it remain on Sarganatas?
There are some generic links I can start with.

That is a welcome post from the RPC as a whole to anyone new to the community, it talks about the site in and of itself, as well as describing a few of the resources here at your disposal. Hopefully you'll be able to use them to meet some interesting people.
Since you seem to imply being new to RP on a general level this guide by Eva should be of particular use:

On top of discussing a few areas unique to FFXIV roleplay, providing examples for her points, there is also a great deal of general information that can be used to make a foundation of Roleplay knowledge for nearly any medium. (I've even nudged it in the way of a few of my new DnD members.)
Well, with that out of the way i'll wait a moment before linking communities, knowing which server you're on if fairly important to that...
..
.... Bah who knows, if you roll an alt on either Balmung or Gilgamesh, consider these groups as open, when ever you'd like to apply.

"Intermission" of Balmung is an OOC LS dedicated to getting roleplayers together of all stripes, talking, planning, admiring the way the subligar looks on that Ele' fellow at the docks near Limsa... or maybe thats just me.
Or maybe you just want to a group and roll around with people against monsters!

"Balmungs Finest" is a PVE oriented linkshell that provides a place to advertise for groups of pretty much any nature so long as its about killing stuff. Duties, Dungeons, Trials... from Sastacha to the detested Aurum Vale.
Or maybe you want to check out Gilgamesh!

The "Coalition" OOC hub is a Gilgamesh equivilent of Intermission, plenty of people, plenty of chatter. Get to know whos who, where they might be, what they're up to and all the good stuff.
I hope the helps you feel a bit more confident going out into the world. Please remember that the RPC is by roleplayers, for roleplayers. If you have questions, comments, concerns, voice them. I and many others will do what we can.
Hope to see you in Eorzea!
