Welcome to the site Izzy! It's a pleasure to have you here on SotE!
I see that you've created your first character, which is awesome, and maybe your next step should be to swing by the
plotting center, here you can find people looking to roleplay or post your own topic inviting others.
Oh, and if you haven't already you may want to read the
Rules section and the
World section, to get a better idea about the site altogether.
Finally, there's a chat-box at the bottom of the main page that you may want to check out if you have the time. It isn't always active, but sometimes you'll find people there.
Once again, welcome to SotE, Izzy. I can't wait to see what kind of characters and stories you create.
