There's lots of great approaches to set this up, even if your character doesn't know a lot of people. 
Techniques I've used in the past include...
The trick is to just get some people who want to do the run IC, then come up with a pretext for them to all get together without knowing each other particularly well.
While I don't know if our online times coincide, I'm game for helping out.
Techniques I've used in the past include...- Due to a paperwork mixup, the Maelstrom sent only one adventurer (you) to the dungeon. An officer notices it, panics, and asks others to go help out as a favor to them.
- Someone in the Adventurers' Guild overhears that you're headed that way and puts out a line for some other adventurers to help out/keep you from getting killed.
- A paperwork mixup results in four different people, including you, all being assigned to investigate the same pirate hideout, and you all arrive at basically the same time.
- You ask the Adventurers' Guild or the Maelstrom to find some help or more experienced adventurers, and they come back with some names (the other characters).
- One specific to Mysterium is that you're pretty sure you need some magickal backup, so you send a missive to that guild of mages for assistance (either directly or by way of asking for aid at Mealvaan's Gate).
