I am assuming that you mentioning not using a bunch of “if” statements is because you had something like this in mind:

if level == 1 then
    -- Code here.

elseif level == 2 then
    -- Code here.

elseif level == 3 then
    -- Code here.
end

So, to avoid all of those “if” statements, you can make a dictionary storing the levels and their respective characters. Then search through that dictionary for the character the player should have. Here is an example:

local characters = {
    ["1"] = "Rareusernamee",
    -- Add the other characters here.
}

local level = -- The location of the player's level.

for requiredLevel, characterName in pairs(characters) do
    if level ~= requiredLevel then
        continue
    end

    -- Other code here, since you have your character now.
end

Or you can just make a regular table and add the characters in order (which I think is best):

local characters = {
    "Rareusernamee"
}

for requiredLevel, characterName in ipairs(characters) do
    if level ~= requiredLevel then
        continue
    end

    -- Other code here, since you have your character now.
end

Yep using a dictionary would be good like @Ovibion said, but before that since you already have it in text you can just do some string split to process it into a dictionary.

local rankString = [[
Level 1 - Rareusernamee
Level 2 - rareusernameee
Level 3 - Guest_202O1
]]

local lineSplitString = (rankString:split("\n"))
print(lineSplitString)

local dictionary = {}
for i, level in ipairs(lineSplitString) do
	local test = level:split("-")
	lineSplitString[i] = test
	dictionary[test[1]] = test[2]
end

print(dictionary)

Might want to process it further to remove those blank spaces
