King Knight MBTI Personality Type

Personality

What personality type is King Knight? King Knight is an ENTP personality type in MBTI, 3w4 - - 387 in Enneagram, SLUEN in Big 5, LIE in Socionics.

I think it's clear that King Knight is an ENTP and here's why. He seeks power, but doesn't know what to do with it once he's gotten it. This is a common trait in ENTP characters, such as Starscream. They have a goal in mind and are willing to do just about anything to achieve it. But once they've won or claimed their prize they don't know what to do next. King Knight claimed the throne, and painted the castle gold, but after that he had no new goal, he was satisfied to just sit there and do nothing because he hadn't planned that far ahead. Another showcase of Ne over Se is his makeshift planning board that you can find in his room. That and his skill in Joustus a card game requiring a fair amount of planning ahead and predicting the moves of your opponents, being able to read your opponent is a strong sign of his Extraverted Intuition. His inability to listen to the advice of others, despite it being good advice, is a clear sign of Introverted Thinking. He's stuck in his own world and thought process. His Extraverted Feeling, or Fe is an easy one, you can see that he's smart enough to use emotions to get what he wants, such as "crying" to regain health. This a sign of underdeveloped Fe he can see the effect he has on others, but doesn't seem to care other than his mother, someone he was willing to show some empathy toward, even if it was at the end of his journey, after he'd betrayed everyone he'd helped. His Fe is also shown in his constant need to throw parties and invites "friends" and "fans" to celebrate his greatness, and of course no one attends. The biggest argument against him not being Ne and instead being Se is his own comment, that thinking makes you sad, and that's why he doesn't think, however I'd still argue he's definitely an ENTP. Funnily enough with a quote from King Knight too, in his discussion with the young lad in the first tavern of his journey, you'll meet a young man that claims to be the fastest person in the world, after defeating the boy at Joustus King Knight will depart with the advice, of if you claim to be something, and never challenge anyone, you can never lose or be proven wrong, someone with Se would wish to prove their claim, someone with Ne is happy just to claim something, and then trick you with clever wordplay. That way they don't have to prove their claim and can leave with their head held high.
