Lack of fear comes from lack of age, lack of experience, lack of respect, and lack of maturity. It has nothing to do with role-play the majority of the time. It has everything to do with being anonymous online and wanting to look tough or cool because you can't do so in real life. It is a selfish and narcissistic attitude that says "look at me, I'm more badass than any of you" regardless of setting or lore.
It has been argued that in a fantasy setting such as this where people and monsters are all magical with what we may consider super powers, that the very idea of fear would be diminished. I would argue for the exact opposite because you can't tell if that Lalafell staring down that Rogadyn has a better grasp of Aetheric concepts. Where as in real life you can see someone's bulging muscles and realize you're in a world of hurt.
