I answered the questions as I imagined my character Illiana would respond to them, and she ended up getting INFJ, the Advocate (they have cute little 'classes' corresponding to each combination). One of the main things was that, apparently, even though they're soft spoken, they hold very strong opinions and fight for what they believe in, so INFJ seem to be the 'silk hiding steel' kind of characters. Unfortunately, they burn themselves out emotionally, so they need to pay more attention to taking care of themselves rather than always trying to do things for the world. I think this pretty much suits Illiana and her whole campaign to be royalty, considering she has sacrificed her emotional well-being and connections in pursuit of this dream. Some famous INFJ of our world have been people like Mother Theresa and Nelson Mandela, so I found it pretty interesting that she'd be categorized amongst these people in spite of her seemingly very selfish goals and nature. Another thing that was pointed out in the analysis was that Advocates actually draw a lot of influence and social capital just from the way they approach things, but actively resist accumulating too much of this influence. Apparently they find themselves 'lonely' while surrounded by others and their admiration, which is kind of sad, considering Illiana is all about trying to get that interaction in order to make herself feel better. Seems like that approach is just doomed to leaving her unfulfilled. Another weakness was a propensity to being extremely private, which I can definitely see in her- she just shuts everyone that she personally hasn't awaken out
So there's Illiana and her struggles- I learned a bit about her and some angles that I'd want to see her struggle with now. What do you have to learn about your OCs?
