LORD OF THE RINGS AND MBTI

Aragorn /Strider= INTJ

 Introversion (Ranger and wants to go into the Paths of the Dead alone)


 Intuition - can see the "Big Picture"

Thinking-::: Thinking before he went into the Paths of the Dead and he entered, not caring (Feeling) much about Gimli, Legolas or the Horses. Take his relationships and commitments with Arwen seriously and doesn't really care if Eowyn likes him. Tendency to believe that he is always right.
Not afraid to tell the truth, even if he hurts the feelings of others.

Legolas: Look at them. They're frightened. You can see it in their eyes.
[All the men turn to look at him] (INFJ)
Legolas: [in Elvish] And they should be. Three hundred... against ten thousand!
Aragorn: [in Elvish] They have a better chance defending themselves here than at Edoras...
Legolas: [in Elvish] Aragorn... they cannot win this fight. They are all going to die! (INFJ)
Aragorn: [in Men/English] Then I shall die as one of them! (INTJ)
(If he was a Feeling type, He would have said that in Elvish so he doesn't scare the other Men, but by saying it so that the other Men can hear him it makes them think that he is brave, loyal and worth fighting beside).


Legolas: [prepares bow and arrow] You would die before your stroke fell.
[Rohirrim point spears at Legolas] (INFJ, defending Gimli)
Aragorn: [signals for Legolas to bring down his weapon] I am Aragorn, son of Arathorn. This is Gimli, son of Gloin, and Legolas of the Woodland Realm. We are friends of Rohan, and of Theoden, your King.
(INTJ, Logical thinking/planning to make peace instead of saying what Legolas did).


Judgment "Planning"

Legolas: Hurry! Frodo and Sam have reached the eastern shore.(INFJ) [Aragorn does not move] (INTJ, thinking)Legolas: You mean not to follow them. (INFJ "Feeling")Aragorn: Frodo's fate is no longer in our hands. (INTJ, much like Gandalf)Gimli: Then it has all been in vain. The fellowship has failed. (ESTJ)Aragorn: Not if we hold true to each other.
[pause] (Thinking)
Aragorn: We will not abandon Merry and Pippin to torment and death. Not while we have strength left. Leave all that can be spared behind. We travel light. Let's hunt some Orc. (INTJ, planning)


1978 film
Aragorn: [as Boromir's funeral boat floats away] Either we take the last boat and follow Frodo, or we follow the orcs on foot. (INTJ Planning)Legolas: Pippin and Merry may be dead by now, we don't know. (INFJ, Feeling)Aragorn: We cannot forsake them... the fate of the ringbearer is my hands no longer, the company of the Ring has played it's part. (INTJ)Aragorn: We follow the orcs! (INTJ)

...........................................................................................................................................................
Gandalf = INTJ  (Introverted iNtuitive Thinking Judging)
He is a Guide much like Aragorn  and  he is not there to destroy the ring for Middle Earth because he knows  that is Frodo's fate not his.

................................................................................................................................................................
Haldir = ISTP
...................................................................................................................................................................

 Legolas =INFJ


Aragorn: [about the orcs] Their pace has quickened. They must have caught our scent. Hurry!
Legolas: Come on, Gimli
Eomer: [gets off horse] I would cut off your head, Dwarf, if it stood but a little higher from the ground.
Legolas: [prepares bow and arrow] You would die before your stroke fell

 " They have feelings, my friend. The elves began it, waking up the trees, teaching them to speak"

Wants to protect Aragorn, by going into the Path of the Dead.

  1. because there is a conflict between INTJ and INFJ and some ESTJ like comments I would type Aragorn as ENTJ. ENTJ's can be nicknamed Chief(King) and they always have a posse of people around them, unless there women.
