Add character/NPC generation #2

Problem: It is extremely time consuming to make characters by hand, especially with all of the backstory options that are presented in 5th ed. It is even a good idea to have the first session be just about getting characters built and explain a bit about the campaign because of this. Sometimes players will want to do things off script and it is also hard to make people up quickly that fit certain criteria and you need to generate the rest.

Solution: Create a generator that allows for the user to specify things (such as race, gender, class, and level) and have it spit out a character. There should also be an option to go through a guided generator with the options presented during the character's creation.
