Twelth Doctor: INTJ
Characters
Eleventh Doctor: ENTP
Doctor Who
Dominant Ne: The Eleventh Doctor is all about discovering new things and isn’t concerned to put his life in danger in order to do so. He doesn’t immediately settle down for certain once he’s reached a conclusion because he has a hard time slowing his brain down to stop considering possibilities. He can pull seemingly unrelated strings of information Continue reading
Death – Discworld: INTP
Discworld Series, Terry Pratchett
Dominant Ti: Death doesn’t rely on his own emotions to go about solving problems. He understands how the world works and prefers to work from behind the scenes to fix it. At the same time, if he doesn’t have to fix it, he won’t. He is a man personification of few words, and doesn’t talk any more than he finds absolutely necessary. He gets annoyed at length emotional rants (Rincewind) and prefers a simple, rational approach to everything. He doesn’t like to take sides, and has a bit of trouble with conflict, especially when Continue reading
Ninth Doctor: INFP
Doctor Who
Dominant Fi: The Doctor doesn’t believe that morality should be enforced, but always gives his enemies the opportunity to choose, often at great cost to him. He discards personal questions and refuses to spill anything about his inner-self. Nine has more difficulty dealing with interpersonal conflict and moral choice than most of the other regenerations. He doesn’t like anything to get “domestic,” and doesn’t always have an immediate response to emotional jabs. He is quick to deal out punishments when he or people he loves Continue reading
Mycroft Holmes: ESTJ
Sherlock
Dominant Te: Mycroft is all about order and organization. He evidently “is the British government” and has a large compendium of people to whom he delegates tasks. His plans tend to be expansive, detailed and always quickly put into action. He hates it when Sherlock’s snooping interfere with any of the long-term plans he’s put into place and comes to his apartment directly tell him to stop. He likes to be in control of everything, and that often includes taking charge of his brother’s life as well (much to Sherlock’s loathing). Mycroft dislikes his emotions and seems almost to take pride in dismissing “sentiment.” He pretends Continue reading
Four – Divergent: ISFJ
Divergent, Veronica Roth
Dominant Si: Four is haunted by his past and has a difficult time moving past what happened to him during his years in his original faction. Though he’s not particularly traditional in his methods, he does tend to fall back on approaches that have worked for him (or others) in the past. He relies on his own past experience to help Tris. Before making any decision, Four Continue reading
Menenius Agrippa – Coriolanus: ESFJ
Coriolanus, William Shakespeare
Fe: Menenius acts as a father figure to Cauis Marcius, trying despite the seeming impossibility of the task, to help Coriolanus learn the social skills that he lacks. Menenius devotes himself entirely to the things that are important to him –volunteering, maintaining the peace and helping his friends. Though his good intentions are broad, his loyalties are few. Continue reading
Arthur Dent: ISFJ
The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, Douglas Adams
Dominant Si: Arthur Dent is a pretty down to Earth fellow. He likes to stay home with his tea and doesn’t really like life to be very eventful. He doesn’t adjust too well to abrupt change, and hates it when his routine is interrupted or the comforts of home are unavailable to him. The tea from the infinite probability drive just doesn’t quite cut it for him because it’s slightly different than the tea that’s familiar to him. He’s happiest when he feels secure about his situation and when he isn’t expecting any huge events or surprises. Continue reading
Katniss Everdeen: ISTJ
The Hunger Games, Suzanne Collins
Factors to keep in mind: PTSD.
Dominant Si: Katniss relates everything to past experiences. Katniss remembers various details that her father told her many years before, and uses those things to help her survive. She has an extremely difficult time overcoming the hardships of her childhood and the games. She frequently lapses into flashbacks of her father’s death and constantly relives the terror of the games. She relies on skills that she is already familiar with in the arena, rather than focusing on trying to learn something new. Obviously he won, so his strategy Continue reading

Gertrude – Hamlet: ISFP
Hamlet, William Shakespeare
Dominant Fi: Hamlet’s Ghost mentions a “falling-off” between himself and Gertrude to Gertrude and Claudius (1.5.9), which suggests, but doesn’t necessarily conclude that she was cheating prior to his death. The Ghost never accuses her of murder, which suggests that we can’t assume she knew about Claudius’s murder plot, but he does accuse her of adultery. Furthermore, after Hamlet’s death, Gertrude isn’t wracked by the same prolonged Continue reading
Mary Watson: ENTP
Sherlock
Dominant Ne: Mary clicks almost instantly with Sherlock because they are both N dominants. She recognizes instantly that both Sherlock and John aren’t having fun with the wedding planning, and is able to effectively play both of them in order to get them out of the house and having fun. Mary is always pointing out new possibilities for Sherlock, and the two of them seem to enjoy playing mind games with each other. Mary is a bit Continue reading
Martha Jones: ISTJ
Doctor Who/Torchwood
Dominant Si: Martha is constantly comparing the present to her past experiences and learning from them. She always asks the Doctor about the minute details of how the Tardis works and how such-and-such will affect history. She has a great memory and can babble details when needed. She has a particular affinity for recalling events in recent history, and always knows the political situation for the last several years Continue reading

Michael Cassio – Othello: ENTJ
Othello, William Shakespeare
Dominant Te: Cassio is a reliable person. He is straightforward and honest in his communications with others. He has great social skills and knows how to organize people. His decisions are typically firm, though at times, he can give way to peer pressure (more likely because Iago is a master manipulator). Cassio’s charm and charisma draw people of all Continue reading
