Book character

Hi guys, so I’m writing/helping with a book and I want to personality type the character (MBTI/ Meyer’s Briggs) and I wanted some insight from other Mbti types so I know how you guys are (I’m INTP) enneagram also helps.

The reason I’m not searching it up is because I’m trying to avoid stereotypes :smiley:

Yes, Mbti (and enneagram) is helpful when trying to develop characters and keep how they act and handle things consistent

Oh that will sound like bragging :joy:

I can easily see myself as Hermione from Harry Potter.

When things get difficult, I am the reliable person who makes a careful plan, stays calm in a crisis, and keeps everyone grounded. From the outside, it may seem like a soulless machine.

​In my friendships, I show that I care through actions and loyalty rather than sweet words. I prefer a small, close circle of friends over big fake crowds. When a friend needs a shoulder to cry, I might struggle to offer emotional comfort at first, but I try to offer a practical, logical solution. (some may hate it) I am usually the voice of reason who prevent taking reckless risks and keep my loved ones out of trouble :sweat_smile:

I am most vulnerable around my family. They are the only people who see all my weaknesses. The only place I know that weaknesses will not diminish love. :mending_heart:

I guess that’s it. I hope it’s the answer to your question :see_no_evil_monkey: Let me know if you want any specific detail.

What is it like being a sensor like rather than intuition?

4 Likes

Being a sensor means I experience the world with my concentration on the facts.

I focus on what is real, easy to make, and proven to work. For example, when learning something new, I prefer step-by-step instructions and real-world examples rather than vague concepts. I also trust highly to past experiences because they give me a reliable foundation.

Is that not because of the T? (Like the first things)

Because I can say Intp KINDA like that but has N although they also do have SI as 3rd function.

(Thanks again this is really helpful)

That analytical part is definitely the T (Thinking), but the S (Sensor) difference is about how we interact with reality.

​Even though an INTP also has Si, you/they lead with Intuition (N), so their minds live in more like abstract theories. As a Sensor, I can say I live in moment. I want practical, real-world facts and hands-on solutions, not theoretical frameworks. An INTP might wanna figure out *why* something is broke, but I just want to grab the tools and fix it efficiently :sweat_smile:

I’m ENFP-T, though I just took the test 5 minutes ago so I’m not entirely sure what that means :sweat_smile:

I’ll do my best to answer any questions you have though :)

I’m an INFP. And one of my favorite characters is Jinx from Arcane. Her personality is like me mentally. Like 99% of everyone says that she’s ENFP, but this video talks about how she’s an INFP instead. And some of those points I think I can apply to myself.

(the video does contain spoilers for the show, tho)
Something that she talked about was the duality of INFP. Like I could be all bright and cheery one moment but then I randomly remember something that I did like 4 years ago and now I’m cranky. And she also talks about how like INFPs look at the world through their fantasies and interpretations and I like doing that a lot too.
