Hi there and welcome to Iwaku!
I'm Kitti and it's good to meet you.
I don't know what Unifaction is, but it is good to have you here!
Friends are always a bonus too, and we're full of friendly people.
Since you're new to us, I have some links for you that should help you get acquainted with the site:
This is where you can sign up for the roleplays found in Modern, Scifi, Fantasy, and sometimes Mature. Generally, they will have you post a character sheet in their thread, a new sheet for each roleplay! You can also start signups for a roleplay of your own here.
This is where you can find jump in games, which typically have no sign up thread. You just start posting!
If you need any help, please do ask!
