Try harder.
Nick (Taerin, Pippin) wrote a pretty darn good post about how to roleplay well (read: intense). I think it was on Glimo's, so you can't forum search it, but basically, he said something along the lines of "live" that character while you are playing. "this will fuck you up to no end in real life, but in carrion fields it will result in titles, positions, quests, et al." Your character's success as a character depends on your time investment, really. If you put a few hours a day into him/her every day, quality hours, it's likely you'll get somewhere if the foundation is strong and you have skills (CF skills, whether they be PKing or roleplaying - though in your case you need roleplaying). Your ideas would probably require that kind of commitment.
So, to repeat: Try harder. Don't bring your ideas to the forum. Bring them to your character and roleplay them for at least 100 solid, intense hours. That is how memorable (for you, at the very least) and worthwhile characters are made.
