I've had two characters that have used larger weapons, both a great sword and a lance. For both of them the respective characters always wore a harness or scabbard ((depending on blade)) across their back, though neither of them walked around shirtless. My current character's choice of weapons are a bit simpler. Emrys is normally seen with a grimoire which is attached by a strap to his belt, and for the occasional time he wears a blade it's in a scabbard attached to a sword belt. As for bringing it up in RP? It doesn't too much unless there is cause for it, such as putting the weapon away or drawing it. Every so often it gets mentioned outside of that, but that's due to either feeling threatened or being nervous.
In regards to the 'mean' character, they are indeed difficult. I will also echo the requirement of OOC communication, as it will play a big part here to make sure people don't mistake your intentions. My own character can be extremely stand offish and cold, you just have to handle things carefully and in a tasteful way. That said you should never feel like you have to break character at any point.

“...most people need to believe in something. There are a few who don't, but they're a bit unusual.â€Â

“Sparhawk grinned. "If Martel finds out that he's drinking again, he'll reach down his throat and pull his heart out."Â
"Can you actually do that to a man?"Â
"You can if your arm's long enough, and if you know what you're looking for.[...]â€Â
