Personality

What personality type is Egon Tiedemann? Egon Tiedemann is an ISFJ personality type in MBTI, 1w2 - sp/so - 162 in Enneagram, RLOAN in Big 5, ESI in Socionics.

Inferior Ne = Must be Satanists… MBTI —> In old age when he was towards the end of his police career, I think his Si-Fe partnership got a bit stagnant, especially in his treatment of Ulrich, such as how set he was on Hannah’s story about Ulrich having possibly raped Katharina, but otherwise very socially charitable and pragmatic according to his police practices, but also because he does have genuine goodness, per what his daughter tells him. —> His tertiary Ti really comes together throughout Season 2 as he starts piecing together traces of his old case files, connecting the dots between Ulrich, the Kreator album, and figuring out the time travel oddities from the Winden caves all according to his investigative practices via Si and even his social aptitude with Fe when it came to interviewing people like Ulrich and Ines. —> I have to say, I was given quite a reality check about my iNtuitive bias disposition when Egon went into what looked like a very realistic depiction of a IXSJ Ne-Grip; that was fucking terrifying to watch, older Egon was usually more resigned and collected, but then he started becoming more unnerved leading up to the time of his death, up until his startling realization that his daughter traveled through time and fighting for the phone to call the station - I’m fucking serious, that gave me a whole new outlook on my more pragmatic XXSJ counterparts, they’re Si and partnering judging functions are just as critical to them as my own Fi-Ne is to me. ENNEAGRAM —> Thankfully, Egon provides a refreshing breed of Enneagram 1 characters out of the cast of 1w9 characters with his more pragmatic and deliberative Wing 2, which does come to his fall of being a bit too set on his agendas, whether it be with his bias towards Ulrich, but then it does manifest into kindness when he was younger and later on beyond his career. —> He struggled with more spontaneous living in 1953, as Doris addressed, Egon felt like he was responsible for the whole town as a police officer, he was obsessed with his workaholism, never quite getting to more comfortably spontaneous behaviors until he retired, saying he could help Claudia with her household more often as he wasn’t busy - per some integration into 7-like openness. —> Otherwise though, the more he was mind-fucked in younger age with having seen an elderly Claudia to later be spooked by his own teenage daughter telling him the exact same words, trying to wrap his head around the Helge situation, and to his familial struggles and detachment from Doris led him into unstable moodiness per unhealthy 4 behaviors. PERSONAL THOUGHTS —> There’s no harm in thinking Egon is definitely one of the most sympathetic characters as I am of the same perspective, but it’s important to acknowledge that he does very real flaws that hurt his integrity, such as his workaholism-turned-alcoholism as he was obsessed with his police work and detached from his family, detached to the point of having cheated with Hannah. —> But also, fuck Daniel Kahnwald, unfortunately, Egon was influenced and kind of absorbed Daniel’s more womanizing behaviors, thus his derogatory comment with Doris about not knowing the ways of women. —> But nonetheless, he ultimately found his way back into redemption by being a more present family member to both Claudia and Regina around the time of his retirement, but also trying to be sympathetic with older Ulrich in the institution, demonstrating an ISFJ’s remarkably knowledgeable practices as he came to piece together the time travel situation without ever having traveled himself. Thank you.
