You've got it all wrong. It should make you want to play human bard warmaster #1921930 or flytomurdershifter #2323444.

If you look at what people get imm xp for, it tends to break down into a few categories:

1. Sessions at your deity's shrine. (If you're not religious, you don't get this one.)

2. Being made leader of a cabal.

3. Initial role xp, role updates xp.

4. Winning/placing in a role contest.

5. Imm-run quests/contests.

6. Doing something "especially cool" game-play wise. Like pulling off a sweet kill, escaping a near-certain death situation, etc.

It seems like you may not have been in a position to capitalize on most of those.

This seems like a valid ranger role. Big game hunter type of dude. Sort of like the predators in the Predator movies. He doesn't give a damn who you are, he just wants to see if he can kill you and rip out your spine.
