I could swear I've posted in this thread before, but I don't see a post from me... weird.
Dogberry's first IC action was to win a riddle contest. Being a Roegadyn, he was already practically a unicorn. He blew their expectations out of the water when he proved he wasn't dumb. People who didn't know him began calling him "Smart Roegadyn" as if that set him apart from all the other Roes out there. You can imagine how insulting that would be. He began calling people out on that and they were doubly surprised. I really don't know what people expect Dogberry to be, but they're surprised when he displays any kind of intelligence at all.
