Folks--

        Here's something I wrote a few years ago on this subject, which has arisen anew in this forum. It may be marginally useful to some GM's. The last set is a blank template.

	PERSONALITY TRAITS OF GLORANTHAN SENTIENTS
	Copyright © 1992 Martin R. Crim

	The basic personality profile describes the normal individual of the
species. There are differences between cultures, of course, and a list of emphasized traits follows the name of a subgroup below some species listings. Each emphasized trait receives a bonus of 3 (with a maximum total of 19). The profile consists of a range for each of thirteen traits, and one passion, Honor. Each trait has an opposite, for which the value is 20 minus the value of the primary trait. (Passions do not have opposites.)  The traits are:

Chaste / Lustful
Energetic / Lazy
Forgiving / Vengeful
Generous / Selfish
Honest / Deceitful
Just / Arbitrary
Merciful / Cruel
Modest / Proud
Pious / Worldly
Prudent / Reckless
Temperate / Indulgent
Trusting / Suspicious
Valorous / Cowardly
Honor
