I see a few rp groups around that advertise regularly, as I spend a majority of my day in game. There's mixed groups such as lions, wolves, equines, and quite a few other species. FH may not be as active in regards to roleplaying as it once was, but there's still things around if you're patient and look hard enough. As for you being a 'newbie', there's not really a certain criteria that you have to follow when you join an rp, so long as you know your English, doesn't matter if you're new or old to roleplaying; everyone has to start somewhere. I believe even after spending many years within this community and in the game, that it is still very much worth it. I feel as though there is much good to come in the future.
