Ni: Stauffenberg had a very specific end in mind when he set out as a conspirer against Adolf Hitler. He understood that up until he joined, most of the other conspirers didn’t intend to go quite far enough to achieve that end. Thus, he refused to participate until they were willing to follow his game plan. He’s the one who suggested all the out-of-the-box solutions that everyone else was afraid to even think about. Stauffenberg had no trouble keeping a secret, and was better Continue reading →

Arvid Walton 9 Comments

Meredith asked: “I have a friend who’s was a total ENFP but then he went through a traumatic experience and now he doesn’t seem like an ENFP at all. Could he have changed to an introverted type?”

Generation War Friedhelm INTJ MTBI

Dominant Introverted Intuition (Ni): Friedhelm has clever solutions to impossible problems that didn’t occur to anybody else.

Generation War Wilhelm ISTJ MBTI

Si: Commitments are important to Wilhelm, and he frequently judges others against socially accepted standards. Until late into the war, his pragmatism comes before ideals.

Rescue Dawn

Dieter Dengler ENTJ | Rescue Dawn MBTI

Te: Dieter cares especially about functionality and specifically asks for his equipment to be customised in order to improve the efficiency. He’s resourceful when it comes to creating tools and originally worked as a toolmaker with the specific intent to learn something “useful.” He refuses the idea of sitting idle in the Laotian camp, and insists on finding an immediate way to take action to escape. He can be quite confrontational, and unusually Continue reading →

Anna is loving towards everyone, but doesn’t allow anyone to boss her about or control her behaviour. When something is important to Anna, she devotes all her time and energy to it.

Finnick Odair ESFP | The Hunger Games MBTI

Dominant Se: Finnick Odair usually dwells in the here and now. He’s more than aware that he could die at any time and thrives on getting reactions out of people. He’s in his comfort zone in all the places where Katniss is uncomfortable. He’s outwardly flirtatious and bears a great deal of charisma. He plays off of his attractive appearance Continue reading →
