Thank you @ruby_coder !
Testing it again this morning, things are back to normal. Sorry for the false alarm or possible user error on my part. Or maybe there really were issues with the system and chaos reigned within, but now it has settled down?
In any case, the responses I am getting now are appropriate.
For historical context, this is a sequence of interactions with the prompts and responses that was resulting in the dry response with the final question: Who are you?

When I run that script today, it always comes back with a friendly and appropriate response in character. Yesterday when I posted the question, we would get replies about being an AI language model and not knowing.
