Loki Laufeyson MBTI Personality Type
Personality
What personality type is Loki Laufeyson? Loki Laufeyson is an INFJ personality type in MBTI, 4w3 - sx/so - 468 in Enneagram, SLUEI in Big 5, EIE in Socionics.
lets get real, its pretty obvious he's an INFJ. i can see where people are getting their assumptions, mostly ENTP because he does act generally like one, being chaotic etc but common sense guys, ITS A MASK, A FACADE. quite a lot of INFJs actually mask themselves. especially unhealthy ones. i think the problem with mbti is that it's all about sharing information about stereotypical, healthy types. so i'm blaming mbti content for not educating enough about unhealthy types, and instead just talking about healthy types with grips and loops. loki from a young age has craved attention. that's literally his whole desire, his whole reason for his identity, hence enneagram 4, and 3 for being dramatic and wanting recognition. HE'S LABELLED THE GOD OF MISCHIEF = thats where he takes his identity from. unhealthy INFJs when it comes to the last straw of wanting something, like attention, can become the opposite of who they are, not caring how people view them anymore, as long as they get that attention that they wanted from the beginning. (speaking from experience) he's been told as a kid that he wouldn't rule no matter how hard he tried. plus being with thor (who's the opposite type, ESTP) is frustrating. this is also a reason for why he craves attention and perhaps acts like a supposed 'ENTP' due to being in a grip. in the films, especially the avengers, he's in a lot of stress, meaning he's most likely in a grip or loop, therefore explaining his erratic behaviour. HE'S JUST TIRED AND HE'S SHOWING HIS SHADOW FUNCTIONS i dont understand how people cant see that his ni is very visible, although unhealthy. HE'S NOT A QUICK THINKER. he has to thoroughly make plans. ne users don't like to be stuck in one place for TOO LONG, whereas loki's biggest desire is to rule and that's always remained his no1 priority and "purpose" on which he wants to do forever. HE HAS A TUNNEL VISION, refusing to branch out on other views. quoting from the series: from sylvie saying that lokis are destined to lose: "we always survive" come on ENTPs wouldn't have that. hes also sarcastic and metaphorical due to his ni, especially in the series "love is a dagger". he's a SOCIAL CHAMELEON and a PEOPLE PLEASER. also i think some people forget that everyone has ni AND ne it just depends on which is prominent. of course he also has ne but ni is wayyy more used. his fe: very unhealthy. healthy INFJs with fe strive to help people. loki, however, is sick of helping people due to being misunderstood and being seen as the 'underdog' to thor. he uses his fe to MANIPULATE AND READ PEOPLE. from the second you see him in thor you can see he's good at convincing and lying to people. this is a popular aspect of unhealthy INFJs, like eurus holmes who also manipulates people in order to get control and attention to satisfy their self-esteem. and the reason for him to be so self absorbed though is due to his unhealthy enneagram 4, not because of fi at all. definitely uses ti: organises his manipulation and plans, he uses precise wording to get what he wants. perfectionistic, wants to be efficient and if that doesnt go to plan, he becomes very frustrated. it drives him to find and uncover the truth. se: inferior hence, sensory indulgements like drinking, dancing and admitting to being hedonistic. he's a dreamer, an idealist, and sometimes his realizations don't match up with the reality that he's creating in his mind seeing everyone voting ENTP just shows how shallow some peoples understanding is of him and mbti, let alone something like INTP, ENTJ or INTJ. ENFJ, okay closer, but ni is definitely more prominent in my opinion (his glorious purpose) and his sensory indulgments are equal to inferior se. just because he likes talking doesn't mean he's an extrovert. quite a lot of the time he fades into the background too. and INFJs are usually ambiverts. underneath and on the outside he displays MANY INFJ traits aswell as needing CONTROL which exceeds any other types’ needs for it, such as ENTPs. and i think we're all forgetting hes MISUNDERSTOOD because mythology has painted him wrong. if he was an ENTP, wouldnt he be sort of in his true element and understood because ENTPs kinda want to be seen in that way? bit sus literally only where a loki is an ENTP is president loki or comic loki. you can feel that they are ENTPs and feel the difference between them and the real loki. i stg if theres another ENTP vote after this- anyways, i didn't mean to write a whole essay but some people just can't see it, just because hes humorous and chaotic doesnt mean he's automatically an ENTP. get it right.
Biography
The Norse God of Mischief and Thor's younger brother. A smooth talker, master of illusion, and skilled knife-fighter, Loki spent centuries adventuring at Thor's side but felt painfully overshadowed growing up next to the ideal warrior. On the day of Thor's coronation, Loki helps several Frost Giants sneak into Asgard's vault for "a bit of fun." This leads to the discovery that Loki is himself an undersized Jötunn, adopted and placed under a glamour. With his sense of self shattered, Loki becomes increasingly desperate to gain the love — or worship — he feels he is owed, even if he has to wreak havoc across the Nine Realms to get it. Loki met his demise at the hands of Thanos (whom he had served for a time) in an unexpected act of defiance... at least in the main timeline.
