Hercules MBTI Personality Type
Personality
What personality type is Hercules? Hercules is an ESFJ personality type in MBTI, 3w2 - so/sx - 379 in Enneagram, SCOAN in Big 5, ESE in Socionics.
Say what you’d like about his Se and Si but in NO WAY is he a character with Fi aux. He dedicates himself to his Fe’s need for belonging somewhere, endlessly trying to prove himself to anyone who may accept him; wether it be in a role as a hero for all times, or just a role as a normal man in a normal society. He’ll change himself at the drop of a hat if it means he can “belong” and be in harmony with the people around him, something I’m sure many high Fi users would directly oppose themselves to until the very end. Fi is a function of individuality, while Fe is a function of collectivity, and Hercules’s need to be needed and love of the spotlight and fame as a lovable, marketable hero all points to the collectivity of Fe rather than the individuality of Fi.
Biography
Hercules is the titular protagonist of Disney's 1997 animated feature film of the same name. The son of Zeus and Hera, Hercules was abducted from Mount Olympus and turned mortal by his evil uncle Hades, though he maintained his mighty strength. With the help of Pegasus and Philoctetes, Hercules sets out on a journey of self-discovery and acceptance, from klutzy "zero" to prove himself a true hero and reclaim his place among the gods. Despite his incomparable power and fame throughout Ancient Greece, Hercules initially believed being a hero would simply be battling monsters and rescuing damsels. It wouldn't be until his chance encounter with the femme fatale Megara that Hercules would come to understand the true measure of a hero. He battled a series of monsters sent by Hades, but what made him a real hero is his self-sacrifice.
