Five Character Portraits (Eagle variants)

Which type of INTP are you?

Extracts:

1) Liberal Loser: This INTP subtype tends to let an overwhelming sense of social injustice often due to their inability to control their immature feelings cloud their logic. Too much weed, or not enough, smoked at the peace rallies they attend with their overwhelmingly illogical SP soul mates typically add to the feelings of social injustice.

2) Golden Boy (or girl):This INTP subtype is as rare to see as a baby pigeon, as they tend to be physics professors, philosophy professors, professional programmers for prestigious universities or international companies, or as government analysts for the CIA and NSA. They are rarely seen, but when they are, it is typically due to personal issues that they need to whine about on internet lists, such as "my wife is a crazy bitch" or "I have no friends, I want someone to love me". They tend to be blind to the plight of their lesser INTP brethren because they have been given a golden spoon.

3) Classic Nerds: Similar to golden boys without the golden spoons, they tend to be intelligent, yet utterly incapable of holding a jargon free conversation. Most normal humans are incapable of communication with them outside of topics such as Star Trek, role-playing games, or the latest Matrix movie. To most, they appear asexual (and tend to BE asexual). They tend to get low level programming jobs, teach computer science at the local community college, or unemployed creating annoying

4) Religious Fanatic: This type has given internal logic up for the external imposition of logic. This is usually due to severe bullying and ridicule as a child, which causes this INTP to be crushed to an empty shell – the perfect vessel for religion.

5) Cynical Realist: This type of INTP has seen the world, and realized that they want no part of it, except where they can get knowledge, experience, and entertainment from it. They see life for what it is, a big cosmic joke, and often wonder if they should laugh or cry, but otherwise just say the hell with it, and go get laid. They tend to be sarcastic and funny, are world travelers, and can blend in to any environment, and they tend to get laid a lot. They also tend to be fairly well educated, yet stuck in worthless and meaningless jobs, both because the people around them are idiots and because they don't have the mindless compulsion to kiss ass to move up in life.

Odds on Golden Boy marries a Pony girl (ESFJ). These can be a nightmare.



The cynical realist has morph-shifted to INTJ. The religious one has morph-shifted to INFP. The Nerd and Liberal are not aware, the N scores are lowish or at aspect is denied.



Number Six

I expect I am a Phoenix (to be described). In essence, the Phoenix needs to be a fur-lined prison (ISTP), a spaceship with Guards (Blake's Seven, but Blake got killed), but I would like to end up on Babylon Five under attack by Earthlings and tracked down by Bester like a hunted animal. Not a golden spoon but a climate of persistent Bullying (ESTJ) looking for a refuge from the storm, hunted by the Wolf Pack (ENTJ) and Horsemen (ESFJ).



But Garibaldi the chief Guard (ESXJ) on Babylon Five was doctored and compromised, tricked into betrayal.



Number Seven



The Thespian, transcendent or morph-shifter.

Fur-lined prison is Mrs Robinson and the Graduate.

1) Liberal Loser

Slight effect as I left a lousy job to buy a houseboat and got stuck in a rut.

2) Golden Boy

No money. Avoided the Pony girls.

3) Nerds

Failed to attain nerd status as I espoused jargon.

4) Religious

A lot of being bullied, but failed to adopt dogmatism.

5) Realist

A lot of idealism in me, and lack of confidence because of bad luck, eschewed this one.
