this one is the most awkward type to do because it's my personality type. when i figured out i had this many infp's in my ranks i was like well shit. i hate it when i have a character that even remotely resembles who i am because i am SO anti-mary sue it's not even funny god i just want to punk whoever writes with themselves in mind for the main character coughstephaniemeyercough anyways

infp

Quiet, reflective, and idealistic. Interested in serving humanity. Well-developed value system, which they strive to live in accordance with. Extremely loyal. Adaptable and laid-back unless a strongly-held value is threatened. Usually talented writers. Mentally quick, and able to see possibilities. Interested in understanding and helping people.

i know a couple infp's personally. more notably brittany and my brother zachary. so we can say 2 of the closest people in my life are infp's. zachary, himself, is a picture perfect infp. he's quiet, he's reflective, and he's idealistic in the sense that he's like me: he's got high principles and set values, as well as a need to do something meaningful in life. he's very interested in serving humanity. he's the most loyal person ever. zachary is also very adaptable and laid back. he's a writer too. he's extremely interested in helping people too. 

atticus flynn is a character in a project i haven't flushed out that well yet. but he's a bby to me already. he's gay and as a result of his torment throughout his life he's turned into a huge humanitarian. he's always been quiet and introspective, never one to speak up, but he has a very strong and laid out value system when it comes to how people should be treated. he just wants to help others who may or may not have dealt with things like he has. he's super loyal to those who come into his life but he's not sure how to make friends because he's not good in social situations. he's also got big huge dreams that he's striving toward. and his adaptability is shown in the story, how he's willing to get up and go and pursue something he's been striving towards at the drop of a hat.

gracie - she appears in kress's tale and she doesn't have an official last name that she knows. as a child, she ran with the boys and was hated by the girls in her homeland. after a set of unfortunate circumstances she was sold into servantry and was assigned a family far away from her homeland. she's a very calm and laid back girl with a lot of thoughts running through her head. she's also got a quick wit though that she unleashes only when she needs to. she's got the air of a sweetheart and that's who she is in her heart even if she doesn't show it. she wants to help her friends. she cares about right and wrong, but gracie is more of the type to adapt rather than bitch, complain, or attack a problem head on if it's happening to her. she just wants to shape her life into how she wants to live it and her dreams revolve around that. she see's possibilities all around her but she doesn't believe it's her responsibility to take advantage of all of them. she's always been interested in just doing her own thing, surrounding herself with a small group of people she'll stay loyal to, and living her life her way. 

jace sharp - this was the one i battled with for so long because one day i finally had to succumb to the fact that this character, the main one in this novel, had the same personality type as me. even so, she's completely different from me. jace embodies the dreamer aspect of this type. she's not as quiet as the typical infp and has the same deal as ashton when it comes to introversion. she knows what to say when she's in her element, with friends she's loud, and onstage she's a complete extrovert. she's an idealist in the sense that she has defined and serious goals she will fight to the death to achieve. her serious value system falls along the lines of never telling people they can't do something, always giving people chances, never hoarding  your money, and treating everyone fairly. she is adamant about those values too. she just wants to be liked by others. and she's extremely loyal to her friends. jace is adaptable and always moving. she's just ready to move onto the next part of her life. she itched to get out high school and she itched to get on tour and she itched to be onstage. she's not one to live in the moment because she's always interested in what the future holds. sometimes she'll find herself reflecting, but not as often as she should. jace is only laid back when she's not in her element. when she is, she turns into an energetic mess. she's a talented writer, too, the only one out of this group that is, unless we're talking prototypes. she's not exactly mentally quick though. as far as possibilities go, too, jace usually only see's the ones she likes or the ones she knows she DEFINITELY doesn't want. she's also uninterested in understanding people unless she's involved. helping people, on the other hand is one of her main goals. she wants to reach out to people through music and embrace charity work if she ever gets famous. 

jasper wycliff - i've used him in an RP at one point and that helped me flush out his personality. he's always been quiet and has the greatest intentions of helping everyone around him no matter what it does to himself. he's constantly thinking and reflecting. he wants to make a difference in the world too. he's fiercely loyal and will put himself into danger for his friends. some may say he's courageous but he won't stand up for himself. only others. he's always been picked on and taken advantage of as a result of his selfless nature.
