I'm not sure there's anything I want to be remembered for. It would probably be nice if I'm known for something positive, but I don't have something specific in mind.
I think, years after I stop playing, the few who remember me will be unsure whether I actually played Achaea at all or just the forums.
Numbercruncher, definitely. You're the go-to person if anything needs to be supported and documented with merciless accuracy and cold precision.
As cheesey as it is, I'm not that bothered about fame or fortune. Though it was lovely when my whole House honoured me with a lovely gift and ceremony and placed Ravien as Oakwreathed (not many people get the honour). The buggers had me thinking it was a cermony to honour Rangor and I was so excited for him... until of course I wanted to squish him for pulling the wool over my eyes.
As long as I know that I did what I could, when I could, and have people think the same, I will have done alright.
I still look back through Events and see my name a place or two. Can be pretty cool reading through them and seeing all the names and what was accomplished. For the longest time, I never even looked at that section, then browsed through it and now it's one of my favourites when I need a good story.
I'll be remembered as a scheming businessman, an unusual combatant, an overstated jester personality, and of course that other thing upon which everyone places the most importance.
And in all of these, I'll be remembered as innovative and for favouring style over results. (Because let's face it. The results are meek.)
I like my steak like I like my Magic cards: mythic rare.

@Herenicus I will remember you for arch-villainy and drinking followed by leaving, and for once using a word that I had to look up later in a dictionary.
Man, you used to terrify Jiraishin so much. Cyrenian Herenicus just does not compute.

This will probably sound dumb, but when a couple of my friends were killed in Afghanistan last year it hit me really hard. All the fantasy gore and dismemberment in Mhaldor was hitting me where I live, and my character had been developing as a poet for awhile. Respectfully moving Herenicus to Cyrene was the best option for me at the time, and I am really happy with how it has turned out.
A year later, I'm not as affected as I used to be, so please don't treat me like a special snowflake or walk on eggshells. This was just the best way for me to occasionally indulge in a little high fantasy without being reminded of IRL vodun obliterate. Ya dig? Thanks for the warm sentiments!

I will likely be remembered, as several independently created clan positions will attest, as 'That guy who forges'. Also for flooding the market with high-end rapiers back in the day. I still laugh when people ask me about the 'best' stuff I've ever forged and I get stories about how they were used. Quote Tirac about a 212 damage battleaxe I sold someone to pair with a 243 speed rapier, "That's the only time I've ever been RSL'd to death.".
I want to be remembered for having a pet monkey before you could get them in crates. I'm pretty sure more people are aware of Bonsai than know who Ephram is. I'm okay with that.
Will pay credits for someone to order take out for me.
Laugh if you want, that came in ridiculously handy when I was out of a job. I think all in all I might have 'earned' 300 or so while playing Achaea, factoring in credit purchases and stuff.
Anatral has two sides, and has not come anywhere near where he wants to get in Achaea.
One is the one most people see - quiet, considered, contemplative, analytical, thorough, reliable and patient, but only to a certain point. The other one is only seen by a very few people - a loving and devoted husband and father though somewhat emotionally stunted, stern and demanding teacher.
His progress in the world has been going very slowly, so if he reaches what I want for him he'll certainly have a legacy. Right now though, I hope most people would say "quiet, slightly rude, hardworking."

Oh, wasn't for the lol, it's just what I will remember you for.

Slightly? Also, you forgot grumpy.
I personally have no delusions of grandeur, however I would like to think that Idelisa would be known as someone that's warm and approachable with a slightly twisted view on her life as a forestal, I intentionally had her mature so that she went from being a hopeless flirt to someone that's hopelessly devoted (cue Olivia Newton John) to her family and her house. She's always very contemplative, so I hope she's remembered for that and for being slightly confused about her lot in life.
My alt on the other hand, is a complete commitment-phobe. She does most things on a whim, and I hope she's remembered as someone that's childish and bubbly, yet trustworthy and generous and a bit of a loner.
Following new bridge construction on the Isle of Delos, and underwater city called Riparium is discovered. One of its inhabitants reveals that a specific herbal element will allow air breathers to visit there and many do.
For the first time in history, the government of a city wields power over a resident guild when Dresden, Sultaness of Shallam, replaces the leadership of the Dawnstriders after a long-running conflict between the guild leadership and the Shallamese Viziers.

Also the crying baby pics, and the retard dragon Geraint.

I'm not even mentioned by name
I agree! Perhaps I'll just be that rather overly nice aunty who turns up to everyone's birthdays and holidays.
