John Dee/Burgess MBTI Personality Type

Personality

What personality type is John Dee/Burgess? John Dee/Burgess is an INTP personality type in MBTI, 5w4 - so/sp - 541 in Enneagram, RLUEI in Big 5, LII in Socionics.

One of the coolest INTP portrayals in media and one of the best, if not the best, characters in the TV-show. John clearly leads with an introverted function. Isolated from a real world, he is not concerned with it that much. He never shows very strong emotions, even when his mother dies in his arms. He doesn't kill Rosemary for "betraying" him, he even helps her. He genuinely thinks that he helps other people - because the concept of lie and lying just doesn't make sence to him. He just thinks that stating facts "as it is", this truth of the world, will make everything better. Very abstract, interested in ideas more than in the real world, quite dependant on his hurtful past, and he certainly has more Fe - if he didn't have, he would not have helped Rosemary. Ti users also have feelings, you know. Fi user would be disgusted with people in 5 episode, John, although, wasn't. Fi user would kill Rosemary, because she betrayed him, because he would take it personally (he already killed people, so he doesn't mind that, what is one more for him?). John understood that she felt scared of him, he gave her the amulet, so she woudn't have to be after that. He didn't need it with the Ruby, so why don't help the kind lady? A service for a service, Ti-Fe as its finest. Fi doms do not have problems with emotions and showing them. Also they would understand the positive parts of "little lies", because their point of view would be emotionally founded. John, on the other hand, has zero Fi in himself, he is as detached as this is possible.
