Our Dragonborns are mostly Khajiits and Orcs, with the odd High Elf just for laughs. Talk about not fitting in!

But there are a few instances where our accomplishments are noticed, such as when one of our Dragonborns told Constance at the Honorhall orphanage that he was Archmage. The guards are the ones most in touch with the Dragonborn's deeds, even commenting on their weapons skills and armor (if Dragon).

Also, Delvin and Vex change their dialog once our Dragonborns become Guild master. (Vex is still snotty, though.) As for Dirge, it should be obvious that he's a moron.

The same sort of thing happens with the College of Winterhold, the Dark Brotherhood and the Companions, (but not the Bards College). A few characters get new lines, the rest don't (or are dead).

While Skyrim leaves a lot to be desired in this aspect, Bethesda has improved this over Oblivion, so there is hope.
