Loki MBTI Personality Type
Personality
What personality type is Loki? Loki is an ENTP personality type in MBTI, 7w8 - sp/sx - 783 in Enneagram, SCUEI in Big 5, ILE in Socionics.
I see much more pride (2) than vanity (3) in Loki. He has never been particularly preoccupied with status, credentials, or achievements. He still maintains a high sense of self importance even when he is condemned by fellow Asgardians, he feels entitled to inflicting mischief and holds his status as Odin's blood brother over others. At times he seems to believe he is above doing any wrong and whatever he does should be excused, on top of being assertive, prideful, hedonistic, and possessing a distinct charm/allure to manipulate others. I think his 2 fix is obvious.
Biography
Loki serves many purposes within the pantheon. First off, he's the blood brother of Odin, a status he gained by proving instrumental in holding the Aesir together in the early days of the gods. It's a fact he likes to bring up whenever he's pushed the Aesir to their limits, see, Loki's a god of trouble, and he'll spout enough half-truths and lies to make a person crazy with anger. Basically, Loki's a proud and vainglorious god. He's convinced that there's nothing another deity can do that he cannot, and he does his utmost to prove that he's smarter than the rest of the pantheon. This may well be why he turned from a benevolent trickster into the sworn enemy of the Aesir. The one he hates most, however, is Heimdall, who often exposes Loki's plans and catches the troublemaker in various schemes. Loki has the power to change his shape into anything. He also wears a pair of boots that allow him to walk on water, and fly. As the god of mischief and strife, Loki is one of the most active and unpleasant of gods. Yet, there is also an attractive side to his personality; he is handsome, sociable, and has a good sense of humor. Loki is one of the few gods who is at home with giants and dwarves, and often turns to them for help in his schemes. He is invariably in some sort of trouble with his fellows and will not hesitate to turn to his worshipers for help in extracting himself. Omens from Loki usually come in the form of an illusion.
