I have some useless-addon :)
a biography for a player, containing quests done by the player, like
"in <date> you have slayed the evil Raugas who was attempting to destroy
the city of...."
those phrases are written by IMMs, or by the autoquest system."
a player can see the biography of another player with a special command, or
going to the local library
and reading the book with the history of that player.

and (borrowed from RoleMaster), a player, when generating a new character,
may choose one or more "professions", that give him some initial
skills&equipment&spells&gold (and those profession will be in the char.
history).
