Suggested Characteristics

Nobles are born and raised to a very different lifestyle that most people never experience, and their personalities reflect that upbringing. 

In your situation you did manage to appear friendly when it's needed, but also to strike fear in the heart of those who go against you.
Although you would prefer not to bother with others, your position does require it.
And for now you might as well obey your father, its convenient to do so and he has more influence than you.
