Knuckles the Echidna MBTI Personality Type

Personality

What personality type is Knuckles the Echidna? Knuckles the Echidna is an ISTJ personality type in MBTI, 6w5 - sx/sp - 613 in Enneagram, RLOEN in Big 5, LSI in Socionics.

SJs are literally called the "guardians." How fitting. Sure Knux got dumbed down over the years, but his whole character is steeped in his ancestors and the preservation of the ancient Master Emerald. He's (was) extremely devoted to the point of paranoia. And when it breaks, he searches aimlessly to put it back to the way it was; very strong Si traits. Te/Fi comes from his tough, stubborn, and quick tempered demeanor. And inferior Ne would explain why he's so gullible and hates venturing out of his comfort zone. (Unless Sonic drags him out of it.)

Biography

A red echidna from Angel Island, and guardian of the Master Emerald. He was first introduced as an antagonist in Sonic the Hedgehog 3 and Sonic & Knuckles, having been told by Eggman that Sonic and Tails intended to steal the Master Emerald. Near the end of the game, Eggman betrays Knuckles and steals the Master Emerald himself, which forced Knuckles to accept Sonic and Tails' help in getting it back. Afterward, Knuckles would then be one of the duo's chief allies in fighting Eggman, but his guardian duties keep him out of the action most of the time. Not much of his past was known, but that changed with Sonic Adventure which fleshed out his background quite a bit. Turns out, Knuckles is the last of the echidnas after they were wiped out for attempting to use the Emeralds and desecrating the shrine (and injuring numerous Chao) which angered the at-the-time guardian Chaos. Afterward, the piece of the shrine became Angel Island. If Sonic is like the wind, then Knuckles is like the mountains; stern and unmovable. So naturally, they tend to butt heads, but do get along occasionally. Because of spending most of his life on a secluded island, he naturally prefers to be by himself and has quite the wild temper. However, despite these traits, he's a nice guy, and more than willing to abandon his post to help out his friends.
