A Character Study is a prose exposition of a synthetic personality: it’s temperament, emotional weather, moral center, how they relate, decide, fail, and communicate. The Character Study is one of the components of the full NT Persona Kit that is intended for the human reader to understand the full implications of their personality design. It can be re-synthesized a limited number of times as the personality is iteratively “tuned” before being frozen when the Persona is locked. The final version can be output as a PDF.
The Character Study also includes the specification of the core personality defined for the persona. That is, the values of the 25 facets of personality provided during the design of the persona’s Personality.
