fun & games: sorting characters

[yhlee]

You probably have an idea of what h*archate faction matches your character. But what about their Hogwarts House? Or D&D alignment? Or Myers-Brigg type? Tell us here!

(can you tell I'm procrastinating on responses to the current move, which I will get to soon--I have a house guest so things have been a bit hectic)

Nirai Remi
Hogwarts House: Ravenclaw, duh :) [1]
D&D Alignment: Chaotic Good. Preferentially plays mages.
Myers-Briggs: INFP

[1] When you write children's books, the question they ALWAYS ask you on panels is what's your Hogwarts House. I have read 1.5 Harry Potter books (something I will never ever admit in front of a room full of terrifying children), but I can usually get away with saying, "I have a math degree so that automatically makes me a Ravenclaw." ;)

Gerae
Hogwarts House: Hufflepuff
D&D Alignment: Chaotic Good. Preferentially plays druids.
Myers-Briggs: ESFP

Fluffy
Hogwarts House: Slytherin ;)
D&D Alignment: Chaotic Good. Preferentially plays faerie dragons.
Myers-Briggs: ?????

[yhlee]

Cantata
Hogwarts House: Hufflepuff
D&D Alignment: Neutral Good. Preferentially plays druids.
Myers-Briggs: ?????

[yhlee]

One more and I promise I will go do something useful instead!

Garach Jedao
Hogwarts House: Slytherin
D&D Alignment: Lawful Neutral. Preferentially plays paladins.
Myers-Briggs: ENTJ

[chomiji]

Zayit Dar
Hogwarts house: Hufflepuff (like her player)
D&D Alignment: Neutral Good, But classic D&D probably wouldn't interest her much.
MBTI: ESFJ. ? Maybe?

Caro Deyna:
> Thinks of herself as a Slytherin, is probably a Hufflepuff?? I don't know enough about HP houses.
> Probably true neutral. If you point her at something, whether with the establishment or against it, she'll fight for you. If she plays, it's probably as a fighter.
> ENFP maybe?

[hurries to do his replies]

[yhlee]

I should add that people are totally welcome to argue with any of mine. It's all guesswork! XD

[zuhrovet]

(I think Jedao is a Gryffindor, which I suppose tells you a lot about how I view the Gryffindor.)

sorting Sasha

[zuhrovet]

Zuhrovet Sikandaret

Hogwarts House: Ravenclaw (Gryffindor secondary, I suppose).

D&D Alignment: Chaotic Good. (Sasha will tell you about all kinds of rules, but she really only follows her own personal commitments.) Plays rangers and obscure wizard subclasses; dislikes humans and high elves.

Myers-Briggs: ISTJ (or maybe just a weak N).

Sorting Seyli

[kese_seyli]

Oh this is interesting.

Hogwarts: gryffindor, tbh.
D&D Alignment: I have no idea.
Myers-Briggs: This one is hard. They're not really a true introvert or true extrovert, but extrovert fits best. So I'd go with they would think they're an ESFP but they're actually an ESFJ

And perhaps the most apt sorting test for Seyli would be this one:
Enneagram: the Loyalist (#6) the nine types (I'm curious what everyone else is!)

Also I felt compelled to do this meme for them:

Re: Sorting Seyli

[zuhrovet]

Sasha is an 8! And "single black coffee".

Re: Sorting Seyli

[flowersforgraves]

Deyna is a type 6 (I think?) and she's halfway between one black coffee and "MCDONALDS!"

Re: Sorting Seyli

[yhlee]

Jedao is an 8, which is probably why he seems weirdly sympatico with Sasha.

Gerae is probably a 2.

I think Remi is a 5?

[yhlee]

I admit I didn't sort the NPCs into Gryffindor partly because I'm not really clear on what the Gryffindors do! (See also: read 1.5 Harry Potter books back when they came out, does not remember anything but how much I hated Gilderoy Lockhart.)

Re: Sorting Seyli

[stormglass]

I need to still do the others quiz questions, but I went through an Enneagram quiz for Xiulan while stuck on a boring call and it came out as 8.

Re: Sorting Seyli

[venndaai]

Sulen is extremely 1 and extremely 'We have food at home'.

Re: Sorting Seyli

[yhlee]

Jedao's very "Kids, why would you go to a McDonald's when there's a really great BBQ joint across the way???"

Re: Sorting Seyli

[yhlee]

I see that Sasha, Xiulan, and Jedao are going to form an 8 Clique.

[venndaai]

Sulen:
Hogwarts House: Hufflepuff
D&D Alignment: Lawful Neutral
Myers-Briggs: INFJ

(It would be hilarious if Sulen and Jedao were the only Lawful aligned characters on this ship.)

[yhlee]

Bwah, yeah...I'm now imagining them glumly commiserating over fresh oat milk or something. [1]

(Jedao's easy, he'll drink whatever.)

[1] My sister's bf is vegan and we have them over for Thanksgiving and I...just two days ago tossed out a thing of oat milk they had left behind that I had not noticed sitting in the fridge for MONTHS, LOL. XD

[zuhrovet]

The party line is that Gryffindors are brave and loyal; that also translates as stubborn, reckless, and cliquish. (Uh, apologies to any Gryffindor partisans wandering by!)

[yhlee]

Maybe Jedao is a Slytherdor?

He's definitely stubborn, reckless, and cliquish. ;)

Re: Sorting Seyli

[zuhrovet]

Right up until they form a Staring Contest Triangle!

Re: Sorting Seyli

[yhlee]

...I want to cartoon this now...

Re: Sorting Seyli

[zuhrovet]

!!

You should ;)

Re: Sorting Seyli

[chomiji]

Dar was a 6, no doubt from the dreadful events she's endured, but her next highest was 8.

Re: Sorting Seyli

[yhlee]

I have a lot of free time this weekend...we'll see what happens ;)

Re: Sorting Seyli

[stormglass]

*L* I will be very amused to see it, if you decide to.

I wasn’t sure what she might turn out as, given I’d never done that one before (have done M-B at work). But upon reading the 8 description after the score was done....oooh, yup.

I have likewise resorted to a quiz for Hogwarts House and found an unexpectedly...thorough approach? This was an interesting article: https://time.com/4809884/harry-potter-house-sorting-hat-quiz/

DnD class and so forth to come! At the moment, playing DnD myself;)

Re: Sorting Seyli

[yhlee]

Oh man, I tried the sorting hat quiz and it was the most confusing thing ever. Give me D&D any time. XD

Re: Sorting Seyli

[hoardingpearls]

Reshad's Enneagram came out to 3, with 1 being second highest. Her wing is apparently 2, although I think most of that is performance rather than inclination.

More soon, I'm also playing D&D tonight and have plans to be flat after. Yay Friday! :)

[venndaai]

I've accidentally drunk very expired oat milk! Definitely not a recommended sensory experience. I'm somewhat lactose intolerant but that put me right off oat milk, so I usually go with soy.

[hoardingpearls]

Reshad:

D&D alignment: Neutral Something. The something varies, but she'd probably describe herself as NE and then laugh. Chooses her character race/class combinations pairwise. "I haven't played a Goblin Witch yet? Let's do that."

[yhlee]

My Pathfinder GM Kevin chooses his character races/classes the same way!

I'm so boring...I always play a fighter, given the choice. XD
