Marcel Gerard MBTI Personality Type

Personality

What personality type is Marcel Gerard? Marcel Gerard is an ESFJ personality type in MBTI, 3w2 - sx/sp - 387 in Enneagram, SCOEI in Big 5, EIE in Socionics.

I feel I am a tad too harsh towards ESFJs so I will give credit to one where it is due. I find ESFJs tend to seem like, for a lack of a better word, weiners. Given Ned Flanders and Spongebob Squarepants are archetypal of ESFJs, they tend to have this reputation of being this type of dorky, nosy, moral busybody. Happy to say Marcel breaks this stereotype pretty well. Dude is so smooth. Likely due to being 3w2 that he has this charisma, but nevertheless. Definitely a savant with Fe. I argue sensor over intuitive because if you compare him to an ENFJ like Camille, Marcel seems far less interested in the "ideas" of the intuitive realm like psychology for example, and seems far more interested in practical things like maintaining relationships and gaining power back. One could probably have a conversation with Camille about philosophy, whereas Marcel would probably just get you a drink and give you practical advice.

Biography

Marcellus "Marcel" Gerard is a main character on The Originals. He was initially made out to be the main antagonist of the series during the early episodes of the first season before it was revealed that he is actually a caring vampire with no ill intention, who was simply trying to protect Davina Claire, a young witch whose imposing hatred toward her coven served to help enforce his rule in the French Quarter. Marcel is the adoptive son and former protégé of Niklaus Mikaelson, who turned him into a vampire. He is therefore by extension the adoptive brother of Hope Mikaelson and father figure and protector of Davina Claire. He is also a close friend and confidante of Josh. In the episode Give 'Em Hell Kid, he became an Upgraded Original Vampire after taking Lucien's serum, and in The Bloody Crown, took over as New Orleans' ruler, effectively succeeding the Mikaelsons.
