I think most RP SGs have some theme, so all those joined have something in common to get things started.
If you could give an idea what type of character you were planing on, wether he/she's a hero or a villain, age, disposition, powers, that sort of things. Then it'll be easier for people to say
"oh, I reccomend SG such and so"

Thanks for your response. To be honest I'm easy and find it incredibly difficult to choose a class myself without picking another after a few levels - not that i don't like any classes but without any rp i find it more fun to just create another character (sort of solo rp'ing!) So, if anyone's thinking of starting a new SG (hero or villains) I guess I'm saying i'd be interested!
There is many RP SG's around, but honestly I don't know much about them. I'd suggest contacting them ingame and seeing where that takes you. Members from several hang around Galaxy Girl at least and that's "easy" way to get in contact with them.
For RP'ed missions there is IC channel to find other heroes, here's link to the thread:Fusion FM
If there wasn't link to the GGWiki yet, that's a good resource as well (and I don't have the link at hand right now but it is on couple of people's sigs.)
Good luck finding RP! Feel free to come chat to Pyranha when she's around.

This is true. What also is important is what kind of IC stuff you are looking for although that can be harder to put into words.
Since I'm pulling these categories out of my sleeve there'll no doubt be omissions. Feel free to fill in things that I leave out.
Some types of roleplaying:
- Deep plots. Plots run for weeks or months, intertwine and create a complex world of its own.
- Light banter. Just some chitchatting, the kind you might have in a cafe with an acquintance you happened to meet.
- Heavy social interaction. The connections and relationships between characters define who even talks to whom, or who sides with whom in a conflict. This works only if there is enough OOC trust.
- Action: Doing hunts or missions IC.
Of course for most if not all these types mix. Light banter can lead to more intense interaction, long running plots might be enhanced by more meaningful relationships, IC missions can boost any of the others above.
The question is which tickles your fancy. And, of course, not all the types must happen all at once. Something one day, something else the other.
It might be worth the while to read Bartle's study on gamer types. Although it describes the player base in general I find it suitable for also roleplayers only discussion because there are RP'ers in every category. Naturally there must be a touch of "socializer" in every RP'er.

I'm in a SG called The Silent Tempest. So far I have found that we fall in every category (as I think most people do, more or less). The socializer aspect is prominent and for me personally the most interesting one. Explorer side comes into play when we follow the IC story arcs and discover new things and meanings in the world as well learning to use the IG powers more efficiently in combat, solo or group. Achiever trend might be a tad less. We do seek levels but I see them more a sa byproduct of other types on playing. A worthwhile goal, but not a thing towards which to strive in expense of other rewards. Killer category might be the smallest, but we do PvP occasionally. Could do that more often now that I mention it.
Even within the SG the preferences are heavily personal. Still, I believe that my team mates are likeminded enough for it to be meaningful for us to play together.
Howdy, just thought I'd pop in here to fill the position of one of many with the Wiki link in their sig (check the lil clicky thingies below for shiny goodness etc, and biscuits!!)
Also as a member of the Fletched Alliance RP SG I feel duty bound to inform you that while we never activly recruit new people, we are always willing to take in new talent, just pop over to GG a few times and get to know a few of the lunatics we call members and you're on to a winner (if you like mass crazyness and explosions that is)
Peace! 
Hi, I'm just returning to CoH/V after a few months out. Am very keen on getting into some RP here so I guess that's still most likely to be on Union, yes? Also could anyone recommend a good RP'ing SG to get in touch with?
Cheers
