Unusual sort's reputation (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

character

This clue is a double definition.

'unusual sort's' is the first definition.
(character can mean an eccentric person)

'reputation' is the second definition.
(I know that character is a type of reputation)

(Other definitions for character that I've seen before include "Make-up" , "Letter or figure" , "card" , "Quality" , "Distinctive nature" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
