What personality type is Chloe Collins? Chloe Collins is an ESFJ personality type in MBTI, 7w6 - - 729 in Enneagram, SLUAI in Big 5, SEI in Socionics.
i'm having doubts about 7w6 > 6w7. the western wizards have a general 7-ish vibe to them, but chloe doesnt seem to fit most descriptions of 7 at all a 7 would have more independence & sense of self in their characterization. they are seen as opportunists. it's true chloe has a 'don't care about what others think & smile it away' mindset, but he has shown multiple times that he *does* care. from wisdom of the enneagram, characteristics of a 7 include (but are not limited to) frustration, impatience, self centeredness and avoidance of painful feelings. chloe is keenly aware of his fears and anxieties, & doesnt put effort into hiding it. hence, in his location story, a lot of people worry about his lack of independence the closest 7 subtype chloe resembles is sx7. not sure why so7 is currently the consensus. according to beatrice chestnut, so7 is the inhibition of one's own 'gluttony' to stabilize oneself in their social role. while chloe wants to appear "good" to others & over-extends himself, this isnt him sacrificing his own needs/desires to favor ppl. this over-extending is exactly what his character is, and is more similar to either sp2 sp6 or sx9. chloe however, does not match the general defenses of 9 such as withdrawal & ego indolence (i put aside sx7 as this wants to see things in rose-tinted glasses, but as i've already mentioned: chloe's fears etc is out on display for his colleagues) naranjo's trait structure & ichazo's description of a 6 match chloe more than 7. to ichazo, E7 --> planning, while E6 --> cowardice. in http://davesenneagram.com/ego-type-6-ego-cow-oscar-ichazo "Since such a person lives in fear, he always seeks smth or someone as protector against impending disaster. He will seek to (..) become the devoted follower of a strong leader." think about how chloe has expressed interest in opening a clothing store, but chooses not to as it would mean separation from rustica who he's incredibly dependent(?) on. rustica has also vocalized his concerns over this dependency to akira in a location story another user has already countered E2 chloe due to lack of pride & entitlement. according to beatrice chestnut, sp6s can resemble sp2s, hence the argument for sp6. this type is labelled 'warmth': - "Perceiving the world as dangerous, SP6s seek friendly connections & alliances. (..) they endeavor to be friendly, trustworthy, & supportive as good allies are supposed to be." - "Search for an "idealized other" for protection (..) can have issues that look like separation anxiety. These 6s don't feel confident in defending their own self-interests & survival." - "Because of their fundamental sense of insecurity (..) they never feel ready or able. They also feel a lot of blame and guilt, even assuming or feeling the blame of others" (more here https://www.personalitycafe.com/threads/self-preservation-sixes-according-to-beatrice-chestnut.359346/ ) rustica is closer to E7 than chloe. when we first meet them, we see chloe's consciousness over self preservational needs (to hide them being wizards & stay safe) & an inclination to a social role ( living in society), while rustica doesnt share the same sentiment & is easily distractible. think about how nero, another 6, roughly experiences similar things naranjo describes a 6's fear & cowardice as "fear of aloneness/change/being unable to cope". other parts of the trait structure include "ingratiating friendliness (warm to be likeable, esp in sp6)", "rigidity" and "over alert hyperintentionality". chloe uses gift giving to symbolize a friendship & takes it incredibly hard when the gift is returned destroyed. anyone could feel this way, but there is also the fact this was someone he had just met there is also the general idea of (chloe @ rustica) 'we both need each other, but i cant imagine a life w/o him' that coincides w the fear of change. this is propagated by some rigid aspects of chloe's life: his routine is to wake up and then wake rustica up, bc if he didnt rustica would be asleep till afternoon EDIT: brief argument for ESFJ: inf ti > inf si. chloe usually explores Ne when connecting it to his social environment (FeNe) but rarely takes abstractions towards his pursuits in life such as the store srsly (NeFi). this is bc of Si aux. he is willing to provide for others but rigid when it comes to himself, always asking "will it suit me? are you sure?" (Fe-Si-Ne in action) inf Si resist routine & 'one place' while inf Ti resist decision making based on personal logic. what chloe does & worries about is in the social realm and decision making is based entirely on it, such as his gift giving & relying on other's reassurances to make up for lack of confidence. even the fact he took a cookie for the sage in a character episode reeks of Fe (ENFP insecurity theoretically lie in ideas being too haphazard & lacking substance, hard to catch up w/ when talking to people etc. they are always 'on the move' bc of inf si)
