Bilked from the wages of VoR's Hallucinatory Bestiary, we bring you some Personas.

These beings are unique monsters that appear with 2% likelihood as pets on certain levels.

Grand Moff Tarkin

Glyph: @

Governor Tarkin is an avatar of Ashikaga Takauji that may appear on first entering the Castle. He is capable of treachery. He does not carry the Tsurugi of Muramasa (not invented yet). He may carry a hand blaster. "Perhaps she would respond to an alternative form of persuasion."

Governor Tarkin: The Imperial Senate will no longer be of any concern to us. I have just received word that the Emperor has dissolved the council permanently. The last remnants of the Old Republic have been swept away forever.
General Tagge: But that's impossible! How will the Emperor maintain control without the bureaucracy?
Governor Tarkin: The regional governors now have direct control over their territories. Fear will keep the local systems in line. Fear of this battle station.

Pinocchio

Glyph: '

Pinocchio is a unique small wood golem that may appear on first entering the Oracle level. "Hi there, my name is Pinocchio!"

A boy who won't be good might just as well be made of wood

Woyzeck

Glyph: @

Woyzeck is a unique soldier who may appear on first entering the uppermost level of Sokoban. "That's the water calling. It's a long time since anyone was drowned."

Slowly, Woyzeck, take it slowly. One thing after another one. You make me feel giddy. - What am I supposed to do with the ten minutes you save rushing that way? What use are they to me? Think about it, Woyzeck; you've got a good thirty years left. Thirty years. That makes three hundred and sizty months - and then there's days, hours, minutes! What're you going to do with such a monstrous amount of time? Eh? Space it out a bit, Woyzeck.

Georg Buchner, Woyzeck
