characterlessness
Total lack of distinction
Characterlessness is the quality of lacking distinctive features, personality, or moral strength.
It describes people who seem bland or without conviction, or things—buildings, prose, performances—that fail to make an impression: The characterlessness of the new development disappointed everyone who remembered the old neighborhood.
