BSD strfile brought into the 1990s. Unfortunately, it's past the nineties, and XML happened, so it's kind of pointless. Doesn't even have a complete fortune implementation—but the random signatures are okay.
Honestly, in retrospect, there's a lot of second system effect at work here.
Support material for authors: it supplies some basic statistics (depending on the command line switches, of which there are half an alphabet's worth) about characters who aren't worthy of the work it takes to figure all that stuff out. Extras, in other words. Walk-ons. Redshirts. NPCs. It's based on real statistics for height, weight, name frequency, and stuff (but doesn't correlate things as well as it could, and isn't maintained as well as it could be).
Still up, still as brutally simple as it ever was (in contrast to the libary-centered strdb, extras is a set of utilities loosely related to the needs of a particular activity (writing fiction), with not too much relationship to each other, otherwise. The internal data stores are all pretty out of date by now, though.
