Hello and welcome! We're glad to have you on Gilgamesh, you're totally an endangered species! I can count on one hand the amount of Hellsguard I've met. There's two major Linkshells used by the community; Sellswords (IC) and Adventurers Guild (OOC). I'm not certain right this moment who has invite privileges to either of those, but if you catch myself (or Adolar Stone, or E'kayah Nunh), we can try to get you into them.
As for FCs, there's a variety of them that have different themes. It really depends on what you're looking to do with the character, and what kind of concept you're going for. Like my FC is a bunch of misfit, ship-less 'privateers'. Essentially for the time being they're mercenaries; taking on odd jobs while we raise the money to buy a ship....or an air-ship ~_^ All of the RP FCs I've had the pleasure of meeting have been wonderful. Super nice and helpful.
