    @hope-ann @sarah-inkdragon @maddiejay @overcomer Thank you SO MUCH for putting the time into helping me out! It’s great to see several INTJ perspectives so I can (a) notice some general trends of the personality and (b) discover some realistic idiosyncrasies I can use for my character (all of which means that if I eventually put the story up here for beta critiques, you might find that I stole pieces of your personalities. But only if I write it well 😛 ).

    @overcomer Thanks for the insight into your mom’s experience with the INFP personality! My character is pretty sensitive and, during the story, gets bullied by someone with a (reasonable) vendetta against his tribe. He seems to be a “weaker” INFP than your mom (and, to an extent, me–I’m an INFP too 😀 ) in that he doesn’t typically stand up for himself, but if he sees injustice to others (even from the person who bullies him), he’ll stand up for them. And yes, the poor kid is pretty scarred emotionally due to several things. He didn’t deserve the torment that comes with being one of my favorite characters 😀 .

    Once again, thank you all of you for all your help! I really appreciate it. If you think of any other advice, please feel free to share it because I’d love for my characters to be as believable as possible! Thank you!
