Personality

What personality type is Dorian Havilliard? Dorian Havilliard is an ENTP personality type in MBTI, 3w4 - so/sx - 379 in Enneagram, SCUAI in Big 5, EIE in Socionics.

I get the ENFJ votes, but I don't see any ​Ni in him. He's barely ever had a focused view on the future or deeply exploring something, flailing around in life without thought for consequences. The only thing I can relate to Ni is him waiting for the time he becomes king himself, but again, that's barely on his mind and he's not focused on it as much. His way of approaching things seems more like the Ne way of poking at it from different sides, like him angering his father. NeTi is also great at strategy, it's just a different kind. And Da Vinci (an artist) was an ENTP. Interest in arts or any of that could be done with any of the cognitive functions—I have an ISFJ friend who is such a meticulous and amazing artist, her works always stun me. Yes, he has a lot of Fe, but I can't see it as a dominant function. Your dominant function is your ultimate goal and focus, the thing you naturally and obsessively fall back on. But Dorian's treatment of society and social relations swings between a strained I-don't-care-for-it to playful now-this-is-a-game, which matches tertiary Fe better. And he fits the scatteredness of someone with a dominant perceiving function better in my opinion. Not to mention I don't see how he has Fe > Ti, because Dorian has always been extremely independent in his thinking and confident in his own logic—ENFJs are insecure about their Ti, but I don't remember him ever being that. Instead, he shows a lot of signs of inferior Si—he values the order and tradition, keeping his things clean himself (and failing in it), but he has a lot of trouble with it. As he grows through the books, he settles more, being also drawn to Sorcha's dominant and in control Si and finding comfort and stability in it. ENFJs don't value Si and don't have the prominent Ne vs. Si battle visible in ENXPs. Their battle is Fe vs. Ti, and I can't remember a single point in the books where he struggled with Ti. He is, however, an EIE-ENFJ in socionics, and most likely a Creative subtype.
