My character is entering his 2nd year of RP, and he's been busy. Started initially as a middle of the road character who could just as easily oscillate between antagonist and protagonist, the people he came into contact shaped him to being more moderate and accepting, instead of an Ishgardian Zealot is he's a reformist ready to lay his life on the line for a new Ishgard as opposed to just death to all dragons and heretics.
And that's just character development, events wise he commanded one of the many platoons at the Steps of Faith, was part of the expeditionary force to The Churning Mists. Helped overturn a heretic plot in Ul'dah (player event). Played guard escort through Dravania into the hinterlands to raid the great gubal library and I even wagered my character's life in perma-death possible events.
And yet, I'm not sure how to properly convey these experiences to fresh faces without becoming an expositron 5000 with every new encounter (which is something I desperately avoid). So I guess I want to ask you guys, how exactly do you give off an air of experience? Of being around the block?Â
It goes a bit into that dodgy area of desired character perception vs others' actual perception of your character, Â but perhaps there are some tips for it?
To be clear, its not that I desire "fame" in as much that people should cower in fear or swoon at the mention of his name.
