July 20, 2013 / Calise Sellers

All the typings and observations in this post are based on definitions and information presented in the aLBoP Guided Tour 😀 So if any of it bugs you, please go read that before leaving me a grumpy comment… Or, you know what? Let’s just skip the grumpy comments! Have a nice day! <3

ISFJ
The Knight

“Because the one thing I know…
some things are just worth fighting for.”
Jim Raynor, Starcraft II: Wings of Liberty

The ISFJ Knight is the flagship of dependability. Noble, loyal and chivalrous are words that describe these on-the-ground captains. They have the world perspective to understand why the people and ideals they serve are so important and are great at seeing in the moment plans of action. They live to serve something greater than themselves in a straight-forward, get-it-done sort of way. They don’t usually mind getting a little dirt on their hands because they don’t think they’re special enough to be looked to as an example anyway.

But as far as what each of us has within in regards to our personality types; is all of us what lies on the surface? If you Google your own four letters and see posters with limericks and characters mistyped by stereotype, is that all there is to know about you? Who comes out in the times that you’re angry, sad or with your best friend? Who is there to know that the world doesn’t see?

Type Heroes: ISTP – The Weapons Specialist

July 1, 2013 / Calise Sellers

ISTP
The Weapons Specialist

[Calmly tied up in a chair being interrogated by Russians, getting a call offering an extraction]
“Are you kidding? I’m working.”
Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow, The Avengers

The ISTP Weapons Specialist is the master of… mastery; the specialist of specialism. They excel at falling in love with something and immersing themselves totally and completely in it, using their bodies and minds together as a precision instrument at whatever speaks to them. Their body is their world-discovering device and nothing will get between them and that adventure.
