This is my view of the character. You may disagree, but since there are a lot of distinct versions of Superman I think a bit of interpretation is valid. R- Clark is a somewhat private person. He doesn't seek excitement (though his superhero role demands it) but prefers peaceful solitude. Ideally (if the world did not need him), he would just like to live in a farm in the middle of nowhere, with few close friends or family. C- Superman is a tool to fight depression, even as initially conceived. This is because he is the physical manifestation of the platonic ideal of hope, picture it as a reversal of Madoka Kaname in the series' ending. Unlike Jesus he comes not from the heaven above us, but the feeling within us that serves as spaciotemporal manifestation. O- High impulse control. He is disciplined and does not give in to any sort of temptation. Great willpower. Orderly and responsable. A- Superman is willing to sacrifice the full extent of his power & seeking his own desires in order to help us, inspire us. Much more cooperative than competitive, he doesn't care about winning outside of making the world a better place (which he does for us due to his love of mankind). N- Not particularly curious. He is smart, but isn't very focused on intellectual pursuits or discovery. More grounded and practical. Enjoys simplicity and what is familiar.
