“Look what is done cannot be now amended.” Spoiler alert: If you have not yet seen Game of Thrones up to season 5, you might want to stop here. ESTP – Jaime Lannister Brash, cocky, and with a mouth that can get him in and out of trouble, Jaime is the prototypical ESTP charmer. One could imagine his life as a perpetual bed-hopper if he weren’t in love with his sister. ISTP – Arya Stark Attack first, ask questions- maybe never. As fierce as her wolf Nymeria, and with an obsessive attachment to her favorite tool, Needle, Arya is a role model for all ISTPs who want to kick ass or become a deadly assassin- or both. ESFP – Oberyn Martell Ahhhh, if he could have just avoided the urge to spike the ball and do a touchdown dance, Oberyn’s head would still be spherical in shape as opposed to compressed. But who could resist the flashy persona and kinetic energy of the Prince of Dorne? ISFP – Davos Seaworth Easy-going Ser Davos lives for the simple pleasures like bonding with precocious Shireen Baratheon. Gentle by nature, Davos can’t understand the violent zealotry that Melisandre preaches, preferring to spend his days feeling the wind on his face as he sails along the coast, while sneaking in the occasional smuggling run to add a little excitement. ESTJ – Cersei Lannister The authority of her title, the prestige of her family- does anyone ever really refer to her as a Baratheon-, these are the foundations on which Cersei seeks to rule over all of Westeros. As someone who takes seriously both aspects of the title “Queen Mother”, Cersei looms large and in charge, like the school principal you wish you never had. ISTJ – Stannis Baratheon To say that Stannis adheres to the rules would be an understatement. He is merciless in his fairness, even to himself; how else could we explain his willingness to sacrifice his own daughter for the sake of duty. ESFJ – Sansa Stark Socially aware and possessed with a proclivity to withstand pain as opposed to give it, Sansa needed both of those traits to survive her time as future Queen of the Andals and fiancé to Joffrey, otherwise known as the unluckiest person in Westeros. It says a lot about the nature of an ESFJ that despite her various tragedies, she is still basically the same optimistic, friendly person, albeit with a toughness strengthened by experience. ISFJ – Brienne of Tarth Shy and introverted, nothing drags Brienne out of her shell more than the prospect of a loved one in danger. The perfect example of ISFJ loyalty, Brienne lives to serve and protect those worthy of her trust and respect, and pity on those who would dare try to hurt them. ENTJ – Olenna Tyrell Olenna plays the part of the feeble old lady in public. However, behind the scenes she spars with all of the notable power players in King’s Landing. Blunt in conversation and domineering in presence, to all those in the know, the Queen of Thorns is the real power behind House Tyrell. INTJ – Littlefinger Impenetrable to all save a select few, the calculating Lord Peytr Baelish plays his cards close to his vest, which serves to hide his web of schemes from view. A master of contingency planning, this INTJ always seems to live by the cardinal rule: a Plan A is only as valuable as the readiness of a Plan B… and C. ENTP – Tyrion Lannister The possessor of a keen and innovative mind, Tyrion himself jokes that it’s “the best part of me”. In a pinch, it can convince slavers and tribesman to spare his life. And for those who are intelligent enough to see past the jester, they know that the drunken dwarf, who is never at a loss for a wisecrack or an ironic jibe, is an intellectual force to be reckoned with. INTP – Varys Perhaps the one individual in the Seven Kingdoms better-read than Tyrion Lannister, Lord Varys, former Spymaster of the Seven Kingdoms, commands a vast network of informants that spans the known world. He views the world as one big machine, with knowledge being the ultimate control, but rarely does he pull the levers, preferring to watch it all unfold from afar. ENFJ – Mance Rayder Mance Rayder, with his charisma and diplomatic ability, was the only person capable of uniting all of the warring factions beyond the Wall. Like his fellow ENFJs, Mance sought to understand all of the nuances of the individual clans, their different customs, languages, hierarchies, and in the end, convinced them that the ways they differed were far outweighed by the thing they shared: the need to survive. INFJ – Jon Snow Facing that common INFJ conundrum- wanting to be accepted in a society that marginalizes him- the Bastard of Winterfell seeks out greater purpose with the egalitarian Night’s Watch. Whether he’s humbly accepting the role of Lord Commander, or making an unpopular peace treaty with the Free Folk, Jon Snow learns one important thing: if you don’t like the world you’re in, don’t try to fit in, just change it. ENFP – Daenerys Targaryen Her intuition led her into a bonfire that gave birth to three dragons, and her confidence in her own moral conscience led to the liberation of Slaver’s Bay. Daenerys reveals her ENFP stripes in many ways- inspirational speeches, revolutionary goals- but none more revealing than her belief that she could climb onto the back of Drogon and, with no special training, become the first dragon rider in more than a century. INFP – Bran Stark Like most INFPs, sensitive and thoughtful Bran can sometimes find himself detached from the concrete world, especially when he literally removes himself from his own body and wargs into Summer or Hodor. While other characters squabble for political gain, or flee south from the true threat of the White Walkers, Bran leads his party north towards certain danger, so that he might discover his true identity.
