What personality type is Ramlethal Valentine? Ramlethal Valentine is an ISTJ personality type in MBTI, 5w4 - sp/so - 513 in Enneagram, RCOEN in Big 5, LSI in Socionics.
Ramlethal is very much a Social 6. To quote the GG Wiki page: "She views the orders of her 'Mother' [the Universal Will] as absolute, having a machine-like determination to see her mission completed. Unquestioning of her mother's directives, she views herself as a obedient "tool" to be used to achieve a goal, and believes herself to be disposable once she achieves her mission... Since tools don't need emotions, she denies having them, for her mother "only loves useful tools", which Sin interpreted as her being afraid of being abandoned if she didn't act like an emotionless machine." The common theme in Social 6 descriptions is that subjugation of the individual's needs to an authority (which is often denoted in these descriptions as supplanting influence for a lack of either an existing or dependable mother figure in life) is used to protect oneself against a fear of abandonment and rejection, imploring the individual to become someone 'useful' and to push aside their own wants and needs. Ramlethal's character arc is a very literal interpretation of this mentality, with her outright referring to her subjugating authority as her 'Mother' and convincing herself that she must be a useful tool and must not have her own needs in order to not be abandoned by them. Her gradual growth is dependent on her slowly understanding her experience of the world independently of her duty, eventually grasping that she must live from her emotions rather than her obligations. To quote a few Social 6 descriptions to highlight this relation with her character arc: "Personal power is relegated to adherence to the norm and submission to authority. The annihilation of the vital permission to decide from one's own sovereignty culminates in the fear of freedom." "There is in the social E6 a secret fascination with the supreme, total force. Totems of united voices, uniformed and uniform steps, a unified ideal... The shift of power towards strong leaders, lofty ideals, totems, and concepts is generating a co-participation covered in the search for omnipotence and rebellion against vulnerability." "They have the mind of a legislator, clear categories. His intellectual orientation is to know very well where the north is, where the south is, and the west, and the east, and if they ever wanted to become human, they would first need to go crazy and forget all the landmarks. They need to forget duty — no duty at all — and connect with instinct and intuition, with life." "Social Sixes can travel the path from fear to courage by forgetting about what their duty is or isn't and connecting in a more purposeful way with their own instincts, their own intuition, and with life in general. If you are a Social Six, recognize that living from the intellect only gets you so far; your head is not necessarily the right organ to tell you how to live fully."
Biography
As a Valentine, Ramlethal is devoid of emotions, having no conscience of her own. She doesn't grasp the concepts of right or wrong, like or dislike, and is unable to place any kind of value on anything other than her assigned target. But like other Backyard life-forms, she inevitably starts learning emotions as she goes along. Her interactions with others lead Ramlethal to conclude that neither she nor Elphelt are tools, that emotions are important, and that her sister and Sin are "unique" to her. Even so, Ramlethal emotes little—having deadpan reactions to either pain or the antics of others—, and remains a rather quiet person. Nevertheless, she is bothered by others being treated coldly as "dolls", or tools.
