The choice could be drawn from a deterministic random number generation, which I claim could not be discriminated from a quantum random number generator in any meaningful way.

If we parse out what character or personality means, we might come to the idea that it's a forcing structure comprised of the cumulative consequences of past decisions. If one's "identity" is (and has been) quasi-stable around, say, American Football, then any tiny little choice like "Hey let's go hiking this weekend." ... "No, I'm going to a Super Bowl party." will subtly guide one's trajectory through time and space. The more one identifies with some (set of) narrative(s), the less free will one has.
