When making an npc combatant, it's easy obvious what to do to get a robot deathmachine by optimizing combat tactics, timing and attack types, but harder (and more interesting in a fight) to get an idiosyncratic, inpredictable enemy. What behaviors (algorithms?) are useful for creating a more organic, unconventional enemy?
Edit: My specific use case is with MMO-like enemies, e.g. World of Warcraft, although with less graphics involved. Note that that means both human and inhuman enemies (animals, monsters, etc)
