It’s….game of 20 questions. A very well understood game of divisive choice making. It would be pretty easy to compile a list of popular fictional characters and attach attributed to those characters that can be categorized and queried on. You’re talking a dataset that’s probably only in the millions.

Thing is…your dataset doesn’t need to be complete at day 1. It just needs to be reasonably substantial to make the guesses have a good shot at being correct. There’s no real penalty for being wrong.
