Personality

What personality type is Hypnos / Somnus? Hypnos / Somnus is an INFP personality type in MBTI, 9w1 - sp/so - 964 in Enneagram, RLUAI in Big 5, IEI in Socionics.

i genuinely don't understand how he's typed as 4w5 right now. hypnos has never shown to be particularly individualistic, creative, or eccentric in any way. however, 9w1 makes a lot more sense since he just kinda chills most the time. he's literally the god of sleep and lives in a dark soundless cave surrounded by flowers,,, hes literally described to be "a calm and gentle god, as he helps humans in need" hypnos also generally tries to be good / help people and just gets dragged into conflicts by hera or thanatos LOL

Biography

The personification of Sleep, son of Nyx and Erebos and twin brother of Thanatos. Generally not shunned like his twin brother, who is always at his side in visual art. In Homer he allowed Hera to harass Heracles by putting Zeus to sleep. Zeus was understandably angry when he woke up but found Hypnos already hidden in Nyx's place, so he held the bolt of divine retribution back since it risked an angry Nyx. Apparently, Hypnos disturbed Zeus a few more times but always ran behind his mom for protection afterward. His Roman counterpart is Somnus.
