  Fame and Recognition 
   Fame is an indication of the reputation or renown of a character. 
   Fame is more than simple rank or position; it is the character’s 
  widespread presence in the minds of others. 
  Fame 
   
  FAME 
   Fame is the degree of recognition or 
  respect which society in general (or 
  specific subdivisions of society such as 
  the military) holds for an individual. Fame 
  is not a guarantee of instant recognition; 
  it is the likelihood that a search of 
  documents or databanks will return 
  information about the individual (and 
  fame may reflect infamy or notoriety). 
   Expressing Fame. Fame is stated in 
  levels noted as Fame-<level>. A world 
  famous entertainer has Fame-9. A Fame-
  9 entertainer probably has name 
  recognition anywhere on the world on 
  which he performs.

  individual is based on a variety of
