Random Personality Generator

Sometimes, situations may occur in which the player characters begin attempting to convince an NPC to do something or otherwise manipulate them, where you have not determined the personality of the NPC in advance. In such a situation, you may wish to use this random personality generator, rather than find yourself deciding on the NPC's opinions after the players indicate which tack they are taking in the interaction.
