As strange as it seems, I am looking for a font in which all characters look exactly the same.
The goal is to obfuscate the text of passwords generated on enlargeyourpassword.com to the casual observer. At the same time, the user must be able to select one of the generated passwords and copy it or drag it to a password input on another page.
This should be a font which contains essentially only 1 character regardless of what is typed; the same symbol should be associated with every character.
I do not need a Pro font with support for lots of Unicode characters, the generated passwords contain only ASCII characters.

Other answers pointed to websites where you can make your own font.
Marc's answer pointed to FontStruct, where I found this font that does what the OP was looking for:

You could always make your own....
Myscriptfont.com
Download the template, fill it out, upload, and it generates a ttf for you. You can use other apps like Photoshop or Illustrator to fill out the form. It doesn't have to have handwritten characters.
You could create your own font using FontStruct!
FontStruct
Very, very easy and you could make it look however you like.
Can you obfuscate the text another way? You could place a div on top that blocks it (and uses pointer-events:none to allow the clicks through). Or, you could set the text's opacity to 0... or probably many other things. You can probably even highlight the text using Javascript and just ask the use to press command-C / control-C to copy the password, without the div even showing at all.
Many, many options!
