I'm not sure if this is a game, but it should be a lot of fun. Think of a fictional character and something they would never say.
Like Sauron would never say. "This ring clashes with my armor".
Or Voldemort would never say."Harry Potter must be the nicest boy I ever met."

Mr Darcy, from Pride and Prejudice would never say, "Miss Bennet, your eyes are the most horrible and disobliging things in the world. Please stop staring at me."
"Kiss me Beatie darling, for that's your name, I hear."
-Benedick, from Much Ado about Nothing, to Beatrice upon their first meeting after the wars.
