Summary
SUMMARY: Features "npctalk: add support for NPC backstories"
Purpose of change
Erk is working on additional NPC dialogue to provide backstories, but that will require NPCs to generate dynamic lines based on their class and traits. Player responses will also depend on the NPC's traits and class.
Add dynamic line and response filters for NPC traits, NPC class, and player character effects.
Includes test cases and documentation updates.
Describe the solution
This is just an expansion of existing dynamic line and response functionality.
