Hehe, that was my first worry when I read the title. A good example of respect, both in real-life and during OoC communication during roleplay is to use what's called "people first" language when talking about a disability. Nothing against you, OP, as I'm certainly not going to assume you won't treat the character respectfully, but saying "blind character" as opposed to "character who is blind" tends to relay, even subconsciously, that this character is defined by their blindness, rather than being a character who just simply possesses the trait of blindness. Something to keep in mind!
