Deanna Troi INFJ?

Mr. Spock INTJ - his logic is too pure for ISTJ who are very tradition and rule bound.

I'd say Kirk is an ESFP

I second that motion - he had that SP "gung-ho" style.

What about Guinan...? Probably E (bartending), not sure S or N, T almost for sure, and I'd say P because she was always open to a lot of different viewpoints and experiences, etc. :thinking:

Disclaimer: only seen up to season 4.

My guess is either INFJ or possibly INFP. But she's portrayed as the most mature character on the show, which means she's gonna come across as pretty balanced in all areas.

Bartending isn't as sociable a job as it may seem, but it's the perfect job to watch people from without getting especially involved. Especially with all the dim lights. Plus, she rarely seems to seek out other people's company unless they have a problem she has to fix. She seems to prefer to stay in the background. So I don't think she's an E.

She's always giving people the bigger picture and how their problems fit into that (giving them perspective), which suggests N. And she's usually helping people with emotional problems especially, which suggests NF to me.

No clue when it comes to J/P. Leaning towards very balanced J. But she could easily be a P, because she seems (as has been mentioned) to see many different perspectives and she never seems to judge people for their failings.

Edit: I don't think she's a T because she seems more concerned with people than with anything else. And if she were an NT I think she would display a drive towards competence which I don't see in her character.

True 'dat - isn't she like 500 years old or something? :shock:

I'm not sure if F fits the bill or not.. Whenever Picard or someone would come to her with some big ass moral decision, her response would usually be "Do what's right (from a universal good point of view)". Picard might be like "Should I bomb the shit out of this planet to eliminate evil at the cost of the greater good?" and she'd be more inclined to answer "Yes, we must eliminate evil FOR the greater good" instead of "ZOMG - no way man, you'd totally be killing innocent people".

But then again, I don't really know many (any?) NFs in real life.

Post-script: I think we were totally debating the T/F divide simultaneously. :high-five:

Post-post-script: Maybe as a 500 year old NT, she's developed all the competence she cares to develop? Hrmm...

The reason why I thought ESTJ for Riker is that throughout the series he choose to remain first officer under Picard rather than getting his own command, I figure an SP would not be bound by duty that much.

ESTJs can be "gung-ho" as well, if their sense of justice is threatend or attacked they can become very crusader-like.

Guinan might be ENTJ ;) , Q is probaly ENTP.

Good point, but I think an SJ would be more concerned about rank (and advancement of) than an SP. I'd think SP would be happier to just chill as first officer. I agree with Worf as SJ - he's very honor & duty bound. Riker seems a lot more flexible in his approach to things.

ESTJs can be "gung-ho" as well, if there sense of justice is threatend or attacked they can become very crusader-like.

True true.. He always just stuck me more as a "Shoot first, ask questions later" SP kind of guy. Tough call on that one.

Post-script: Was "Q" anyone else's favorite character?? He was such a sweet bastard!

Maybe that would be a less mature automatic NF response. Even then, NFs often put values ahead of people, especially INFPs with the Fi primacy.

Possibly. Such extreme maturity muddies the waters quite a lot. But what would you suggest those areas of competence are?

:shock: Who does she lead? Who does she want to lead?

Mh, I was more like contrasting her and Q, she is very much concerned with long term consequences and keeping the balance of the universe intact, so to speak, while Q seems to be more playful and interested in providing immediate lessons, overall he seems more random. Guinan however seems like a deliberate long term strategist, I am most torn between ENFJ and ENTJ, though I am also open to her beeing introverted :) .

I just can't see her being an E. She's usually in the background, and when she talks it's mostly to one character at a time, in fairly intimate settings. Unless circumstances force her to step to the forefront and leave her den, but they are usually fairly extraordinary circumstances. And people often express surprise to see her away from her usual setting.

And what does she do with her free time? Does she visit ppl? Does she socialize? Do we even know? If not, doesn't that suggest that she keeps to herself when she isn't actually working?

Actually - I take it back. I'm sticking with ESTP - if anyone was likely to go against "Starfleet protocol" or "Orders from the Admiral", it was Riker.

And what does she do with her free time? Does she visit ppl? Does she socialize? Do we even know? If not, doesn't that suggest that she keeps to herself when she isn't actually working?

If a character got a visit from Guinan, it meant something important was happening. She almost never dropped by just to shoot the shit. +1 for Introverted.

Maybe that would be a less mature automatic NF response. Even then, NFs often put values ahead of people, especially INFPs with the Fi primacy.

I see, I see... Again, I don't really know NFs that well. I tend to agree with you here.

Possibly. Such extreme maturity muddies the waters quite a lot. But what would you suggest those areas of competence are?

But then again, the age thing is really killing us. I could argue that Guinan has a mature NT "Taoist" thing going on. Struggle and develop yourself early in life then strive to achieve simplicity later in life...

If nothing else, mixing drinks is appeals to NT competency (at least, I'd get a kick out of it :cool: ) Maybe she's spent a lifetime striving to give damn good advice?

I think your argument holds more water overall, but I gotta play :devil: 's advocate. :)

Kirk: ESFP. I don't know how people see him as an ENxP, he's clearly an adventure seeker, whereas an ENxP would be more of a creator.

Spock: INTJ*

McCoy: ESFJ

Scotty: ESTP

Sulu: ISFP, maybe?

Uhura: ISTJ.

*I've decided that Spock is more likely an INTJ, I think, at least in the movies, because he's also looked upon as a mystic and has a constant need for understanding without necessarily having a practical application. He also looks for the meaning of human actions ("This is highly illogical"). I would suspect an ISTJ would be more meat-and-potatoes about that sort of thing.

He also shows some INFJ tendencies in Star Trek II by sacrificing himself for the crew. Although his decision was logical, it was also selfless. But as we have stated before, the T and F dichotomy is not about emotion or intellect. Regardless, I think an INTJ would more likely look out for himself before other people.

But Ni is quite clear in Spock, because he tries to comprehend the meaning of things. (Like in Star Trek V and the campfire scene.)

EDIT: In related news the new Star Trek film due for release next Xmas will have Leonard Nimoy making an appearance as Spock.

ILM will also be providing the special effects. Interestingly, the last two Trek films, Insurrection and Nemesis, did not have ILM involvement, and they were among the poorer entries to the franchise. Sometimes I wonder if ILM is Star Trek's good luck charm.

i can see her as an INFJ because she is also always analyzing subjective systems.

Kirk: ESTP
Yeah, that is closer than my guess. Kirk does seem like a T, but not an NT. ESTP.

I had thought about INFJ for Deanna, but I am certain of Beverly Crusher being INFJ -- and Deanna is more like an INFP in comparison. Even if she is sometimes a cliche... :)
