Right click on the actor and select Persona/Export Persona.

A Persona is the characteristics given to the actor so that the actor can animate in a unique style, e.g. a sexy dancer acts differently from a ninja warrior. The definition of the persona is stored in an AML file (Action XML), which defines the actor's multiple idle animations, keyboard moving behaviors, and special perform actions. One Persona file may include several sets of movement behaviors. Use Behavior Mode Switch (hotkey X/Z, next/previous mode) to trigger different animation sets, such as walk mode, run mode, or even a custom defined fly mode. Animation defined in the Persona can be either triggered by hotkey or right-click menu.
You may export the persona of a specific actor, modify the content of the file and apply it to the original or another actor.
To export a persona, you may:
Right click on the actor and select Persona/Export Persona.
Alternatively, you may go to Actor/Persona/Modify page and click Export Persona button.
In the AML file, codes and index tables are contained to populate different animation files (called iMotion files) for the target actor. Basically, you can have your actor possessing unlimited animations. An iClone actor is embedded with several mode presets for WASD keyboard movement, you can use X to toggle WALK and RUN mode for moving a character. Even if you don't command the actor to act, the actor acts the Idle Motion embedded in the Persona. Please refer to the Idle Track section for more information.
You can toggle the Director Mode to activate the Persona for actors. In the Director Mode, you may direct actors to move or act and record these motions for further tuning. It is a game-like method, which you use W, A, S, D or X or some other previously specified keys to command your selected actors to do different actions.
