Jim Raynor MBTI Personality Type
Personality
What personality type is Jim Raynor? Jim Raynor is an ISFP personality type in MBTI, 9w8 - sp/so - 962 in Enneagram, RCUAN in Big 5, SEI in Socionics.
The campaigns of Starcraft Original and Brood War show a Raynor as a Fi-hero constantly struggling against Te machinations. He's arrested on his very first mission for destroying the infested commander center against colonial law, and with little options left, he joins Mengsk's plight, unable to see the inevitable rise of a tyrant due to his lower Ni. It's clear that Raynor does not believe the end justifies the means, shown by his disapproval of Mengsk recruiting Duke, and abandoning Kerrigan. Higher Se makes Raynor highly resourceful and improvisational, but makes him too focused on the battles in front of him, rather than the big picture. Thus, he finds himself yanked from Mengsk's conquest, to the Protoss internal conflict, and then to Kerrigan's trickery, because he's constantly choosing the next best option before him which he believes is the right thing. In True Colors, the responses of Mengsk and Raynor to the killings of Duke and Fenix demonstrate, perhaps not necessarily the contrast between Te and Fi, but at least a contrast between a Thinker and Feeler. Mengsk is upset at the breaking of an agreement rather than at Duke's death per se, while Raynor is clearly upset at the death of his noble friend.
