Here's a link to Cariadoc's Miscellany - scroll down to the section
"Articles About Persona."  It's not exactly what you're looking for, but
it should help.  The article "The Little Things" lists questions, the
answers to which you (your persona) should know.  It might be a good
jumping-off point.

Cariadoc also has TONS of other useful stuff on his site - don't just
pass it by!

I would suggest that anybody who still considers themselves to be a
"newbie" check out this site:

http://www.flash.net/~delamare/guidhan1.htm

"The Guiding Hand" is a kind of beginners' guide to the SCA put out by
the Kingdom of Ansteorra.  It was one of the first things I read, and it
gave me a good solid background as to what the SCA is about. 


Enjoy!
