Yeah, I'm a little worried about this too. I'm hoping I'm not alone in planning to have my character take actions that will hopefully and intentionally put them on other Players' radars--if any of us start doing things like carving out our own territories, managing villages, or clearing big dungeons within the setting, I'm hoping that will ripple outward and attract the attention of other Players, maybe even NPCs. Of course, the trick will be in getting that attention without starting wars or being chased out of town with torches and pitchforks, lol.

As far as getting player attention IC, I'd like to point out the common ground of being from modern Earth is a good place to start – depending on how common Otherworlders are/how widespread Earth knowledge is, that is. I’d imagine rumours of a genius traveller bringing innovation with them wherever they go, would stand out to an otherworlder if all those “innovations” were clearly just modern knowledge.
