Ja'qen H'gar: INTP? Maybe that's just wishful thinking because I like him and there aren't any of my kind in the series.

Not totally sure about his type, but I'm at the end of Storm of Swords and I agree. You'd think you'd find at least one important INTP in this maze of characters.

I'd put Qyburn, Doran Martell, and Maester Luwin as INTPs. 5w4 for the first and 5w6 for the latter two. Though they are also minor characters. Jaqen definitely seems xNTP, and I would lean toward INTP, but ENTP is also plausible. One of the coolest characters too, in a series loaded with them.

I'm still reading through ADWD atm, but I have a massive and growing list of character types for the series which I'll post once I'm finished.

For now, my estimates of the major viewpoint characters:

Eddard Stark: ISTJ 1w9-6w5-3w2 sx/sp? RCOan
Catelyn Stark: ISfJ 6w7-1w2-2w1 sx/sp rCOaN
Sansa Stark: EsFJ 2w3-9w1-6w7 so/sx slOAN
Arya Stark: iSTP 8w7-7w8-4w3 sp/sx rcUEI
Bran Stark: INFP 9w1 or 6w5-4w5 sx/so rCUAI
Jon Snow: INFJ 6w5-1w9-4w5 sx/so rCuAI
Samwell Tarly: InFp? 9w1-7w6-2w3 so/sp? sluAI
Tyrion Lannister: ENTP 7w6-3w4-1w9 sx/sp SCoxI
Jaime Lannister: ESTP 7w8-3w4 sx/so SCuEn
Cersei Lannister: ENfJ 3w4 or 8w7 sx/sp? rcoEx
Daenerys Targaryen: INFJ 1w9-4w5 sx/so? rCoeI
Davos Seaworth: IStJ 6w5-1w9 so/sp? RCOAN
Theon Greyjoy: ESTP 7w8-3w4-8w7 so/sx SLUEn
Brienne of Tarth: ISTJ or ISFP 1w9-6w5 so/sx RCoAN

Beric Dondarrin: ENTP

Meera Reed: ESFP, yes

I agree with the rest.

I propose we continue this thread and ask a moderator - such as [MENTION=9273]Vasilisa[/MENTION] - to give it a name suited to both the books and the TV series.

Eddard: ISTJ
yes (1w9 So/Sx)

Catelyn: xSFJ
I don't think so, I'd say ISTJ 1w2 So/Sx

Robb: ESTJ
nooo, he's definitely a Feeler of some kind, maybe ENFJ?

Sansa: ENFJ
I could see that.

Arya: ISTP
ISFP (she has Fi) 7w8 Sx/Sp

Bran: INFP
seems xSFP to me. 7w6 Sx/Sp

Jon: INFJ
yes (either a 9, a 1 or a 2 So/Sx)

Sam: ISFP (?)
your guess is as good as mine

Theon: ESTP (?)
kinda seemed like an ESFJ to me 6w7 So/Sx

Robert: ESFP
definitely Se dom, but I think ESTP (definitely an 8w7 Sx/So)

Cersei: ESFJ
not feelin this typing. she's far too cold and calculating, I'd say some sort of TJ

Joffrey: ESTx
ESTP 6w7 Sx/So

Jaime: ESTP
ESTP 3w2 Sx/So

Tyrion: ENTP
YES! ENTP 7w6 Sp/??

Tywin: xNTJ
ENTJ 8w? So/Sp

Littlefinger: INTJ
yeah. I think he's a 6w5 Sp/Sx

Varys: INTP (?)
I thought INFJ (6w? Sp/So)

Daenerys: INFJ
I thought INTJ or ISFP (I saw Ni and Fi as opposed to Ni and Fe, but you could be right here) 9w8 Sx/Sp

Viserys: ExFP
I was thinking Ne dom gone to hell, so ENFP works. 4w3 Sp/Sx or Sx/Sp[/QUOTE]

@ Elfboy

I really don't see any Te in Catelyn. She is driven in her life bij her sense of duty (SJ) and her love of her family, her children in particular She's constantly trying to fulfil their needs and she puts her own needs away for them. She also sympathize with other people quickly, like with Brienne. I think she's most likely Si > Fe (ISFJ)

Robb I find difficult to type, because we don't see much from him personally in the first two books/series. I don't know if he's a POV character later on, but I hope so. So far I don't see NF in him though. He's much alike his father working in the traditionally way, doing his 'duties'.

I see Bran as an INFP because of his "shy" nature and ability to see right through things. The way he connected to dreams and magical stuff seems very NFP.

Theon seems to me a risk-taker, loving action and war. He's smart and knows strategies to fight, but if he has taken what he's fighting for he can't keep it (I don't see any long-planning J in that). I don't think he is very good in imagining what other people are thinking and feeling. He can't motivate other people to stand by his side.

Cersei is an ESFJ, just not a typical one. I believe she's an ESFJ "gone to hell" (to use your nice choice of words). She's a control freak first class. She rules by manipulating other people emotionally. She can be very charming and she's trying to read other people's minds, focusing on their motives and beliefs. I don't see a strategical rational planner here. She keeps a lot to herself (though probably she'll share it with Jaime) but I believe this is because of her "gone to hell" / traumatic experience with her marriage.

About Viserys you're probably right. ;)

Alwyn, as you go on in the books I'll bet you'll become increasingly certain Cersei is a TJ. She seems to be a bit more tender in the show than she was in the books. For example, in the books she doesn't express nearly as much concern over the fact that Joffrey is clearly a sociopathic, sadistic monster, she only gets somewhat upset about how difficult he is to wrangle or manipulate into making more prudent choices at times.

I'd also agree with Elfboy about Theon, I think. His actions are motivated by a need to prove himself to his (estranged) family (and, to be frank, the whole thing wasn't that well planned).

Well I have read the first two books and I don't see a T in her. Why should anyone be a T if they can't see the truth about those they love? I don't think she is F because of her 'tenderness', but the way she wants to control everyone emotionally - which I see as a very unhealthy Fe funtion. In Clash of Kings with the power match with Tyrion she's trying to overwin him by feelings. She wants herself to feel safe and she's trying to beat Tyrion emotionally by trying to find his favorite whore. She isn't that strategic as her little brother. She is, however, a very unhealthy person which make her difficult to type I guess.

Theon I'm not sure about, so maybe you're right about that, though I don't think if you want to prove yourself to your family you're automatically a F? It's more the way he does that, I think, what will determine his type.

Having finished the first season, Eddard Stark is definitely ISTJ and Tyrion Lannister is definitely ENTP. I also believe that both Robb Stark and Jon Snow are both INFJs, probably my two favorite characters, next to Catelyn, who strikes me as ExFJ.

And very good to all the people who guessed Varys. Good example of a "shady" INFJ.

I'll think of the other people later.

At first I though Daenerys was an ENFP, now I lean more toward ENFJ.
