Which House of the Dragon Character are you based on MBTI?
MBTI tests have recently gained much attention among fans, especially when they want to know which character from their beloved show matches their personality. So, here's the list of 16 characters from the prequel series:
ESFJ - Alicent Hightower
One of the leading characters in House of the Dragon is Alicent Hightower. She was introduced from the beginning as Rhaenyra's best friend and constantly proved to be caring and tender-hearted with people. While she's thoughtful of others, Alicent wants to remain in everyone's good books.
Personalities like Alicent are often found getting themselves into trouble as they constantly push to make others praise them. When Alicent becomes Rhaenyra Targaryen's stepmother, she completely changes her attitude toward her and even refuses to settle for peace when her former best friend, disguised as a Septa, initiates a private conversation.
After refusing Rhaenyra and upsetting her, Alicent Hightower realizes the need for peace and proposes her idea to make amends in the finale episode of House of the Dragon season 2. People like her are inexperienced and cocooned and do not wish to face intense conflicts.
ENTJ - Rhaenyra Targaryen
Being an ENTJ, Rhaenrya Targaryen is known for her strong and bold personality and believes in herself becoming the Queen of the Seven Kingdoms. While her father always wanted a son to take over the Iron Throne, Rhaenyra knew she was born to claim it.
ENTJ personalities are self-motivated and fearless and barely worry about sharing honest opinions. In House of the Dragon, many fear Rhaenyra's power and intelligence, which make her a strong competitor against her half-brother.
She has faced significant challenges during the Civil War but remains undisturbed and ambitious about her goal.
ESTP - Daemon Targaryen
Daemon Targaryen's boldness and daring nature in House of the Dragon barely need an introduction. He's more than just Rhaenyra's second husband and has proved innovative. ESTPs can easily manipulate people and reach their goals without extra effort. In simple terms, people like Daemon Targaryen are known for their smart work and combative nature. So, if you possess these traits, you are an ESTP like Daemon.
ISFJ - Viserys I Targaryen
Viserys I Targaryen was a highly respected ruler, best known for his determination to protect his family and kingdom with complete authority. ISFJ are super caring and loyal to their loved ones. They are limitless when it comes to being responsible and noble.
People like Veiserys I Targaryen believe in maintaining peace rather than emerging as a dominant personality. They understand the significance of stability and try their best to avoid intense conflicts.
ISTJ - Aemond Targaryen
As an ISTJ personality, Aemond Targaryen proves to be incredibly fierce and thrust into achieving his goal. Be it through crossing limits or unimaginable actions, Aemond never fails to highlight his powers.
As seen in House of the Dragon season 2, Aemond burned down the Sharp Point with the help of his dragon Vhagar, only to let his rivals know his strong presence in the battle.
ISTP - Rhaenys Targaryen
ISTPs are often lauded for being logical and clever. They rarely act out of emotion and always use their brains before initiating action. Similarly, Rhaenys Taragaryen shows her ability to be rational and use tangible methods to keep herself safe.
She's always aware of the family dynamics happening in Westeros and takes action accordingly. People like her do not rely on others to make quick decisions. Instead, they use their experience and mind to bring the best possible solution.
INTJ - Otto Hightower
INTJs are impressively intelligent and known for their calculative moves. In House of the Dragon, Otto Hightower arranged his daughter Alicent's wedding with King Viserys to ensure power and authority among the Targaryens.
He knew that if the King married Alicent, she would become the ultimate ruler after his death. INTJs possess the ability to analyze situations and take their decisions seriously.
ESTJ - Corlys Velaryon
While many might think that INTJ and ESTJ are similar personalities, their way of making decisions makes them different. ESTJs think about their benefit first and expect others to follow their path if they want to gain power.
Similarly, Corlys Velaryon wanted his daughter to marry the old King, which would later change the power dynamics in Westeros. So, if you're super analytical, you're an ESTJ.
INFP - Criston Cole
INFPs don't like things going out of their control. They want everyone to believe in them and that their decisions are the best. While they are incredibly loyal to their loved ones, INFPs like Criston Cole get immediately aggressive.
His love for Rhaenyra Targaryen didn't reach marriage, and he became rude to her. He was committed to Rhaenyra, but her refusal ignited her INFP traits.
ISFP - Laena Velaryon
Being an ISFP, Laena Velaryon possesses independence and creativity. ISFPs are known for their loyalty and cheerful nature. They do not care about being super powerful or dominating others but appreciate what they find is beautiful.
ISFPs are mostly calm, can enjoy being alone, and have a positive perspective on life. They do not indulge in intense conflicts or create problems.
ESFP - Helaena Targaryen
ESFPs are always open to hearing others and respect their opinions. Similarly, Helaena Targaryen in House of the Dragon is one such character who never shies away from being honest.
ESFPs care about others and want them to understand their worth. In the House of the Dragon season 2 finale, Helaena takes Daemon to Harrenhal, where he can glimpse the future.
Helaena is concerned about the Civil War, and it might be possible that she knows how things will end after the most awaited battle. So, if you're as sensitive as Helaena, you are an ESFP.
