I know one counterexample, at least.
The Wheel of Time, my absolute favorite.
It is very innovative, and while related to the rest of the Fantasy genre, it is quite different even in sentiment.
It has a main protagonist,
Rand al'Thor. He's hard to type, but I identify more with him than with the ENTJ type. If he'd be subject to a type, he would be an INTJ with social skills, ability to improvise and emotional warmth.
He becomes less and less idealistic, sacrificing much for the greater good. At last using entire nations and peoples as pawns in the battle against true evil.
A nice input in this whole thing is that he also feels a strong contempt against nobility, especially oppressors, and he imposes laws to protect the people. Quite cool...
I'm not going to spoil too much...
The book also has other protagonists, and you also get to read first-hand as some of the main antagonists, which is cool.
The writer of the book, James Oliver Rigney (under the alias Robert Jordan) is a definite INTJ, again with a more mature outlook on emotion than what is generally the stereotype, or what I can see on this forum from people acting the type(or hiding mental illnesses).
Now, there are two other male protagonists.
One,
Perrin Aybara, is a definite ISTP. Goodnatured, big, strong. Can communicate with wolves.
The other one,
Mat Cauthon, is an ExTP. Hard to say if he's S or N. In the story, it says that he has the ability to read, but that he hadn't read an entire book in his life.
He undergoes some personality changes in a couple of steps, and I think he becomes more ENTP than ESTP after a few books. Very adventurous. A gambler, drinker and later a great general (however unexpected that might seem).
Those three are
ta'veren, a name for people in this fantasy universe who instead of being guided by fate shapes it around themselves. Like a knot in a weave.
There are a few non-ta'veren characters as well that the books revolve around... Some of them can be quite hard to type as they are all strong, strong characters out of the ordinary with a great versatility. They're all women who can "channel", except one called
Min Farshaw.
Nynaeve al'Meara - ESFJ (really aggressive though)
Egwene al'Vere - (e?)NTJ
Aviendha - ENTJ (Fire on two legs)
Elayne Trakand - ENFJ
Min Farshaw - ENTP?
As a greatly balanced INTJ, Rigney has written one hell of a story, portraying the events from a great many angles.
The best books I have read, to be quite honest. Those who do not like
the Wheel of Time series are nine out of ten times people who haven't the patience to sit down and read fourteen plus brick-thick books with an advanced language.
The books are appealing to intelligent readers as well as casual pleasure readers who don't prefer to think much or read between the lines.
They certainly provide much pleasure to read just straight off, but things happening in the first books are definitely worth taking into account in the tenth book when trying to figure out what is going to happen.
You can also notice people lying, betraying, conspiring and all sorts of things all through the books without it ever being plainly evident until much later, if you didn't remember some vague detail from a few books back.
I'd say that James Oliver Rigney was a damn genius for writing those amazing pieces of literature.
The books both values idealism and emotion as something good, at the same time as it is something hindering in the fight against the shadow.
It's not INFP or ISFP fantasy by any measure. It's NTJ fantasy!
