The MBTI Types As Generals

Have you ever wondered what each MBTI type would be like if they had an army at their disposal? Well, wonder no more...

INTJ:
The INTJ finds the prospect of leading an army of so many different people daunting, so they put them to work building a cloning factory where they can mass-produce INTJs. Just as the factory is almost built, the ENFJ arrives and convinces the neglected soldiers of the INTJ's army to join theirs. The INTJ is left sitting dejected among the hollow structure of their semi-completed cloning factory, absently trying to come up with ways to finish it themselves.

INTP:
The INTP's army wonders if their general really exists, because they never see the INTP emerge from their tent. The only people who enter and exit are advisers or scouts. Finally they are stumbled upon by the ESTP and their army, who gleefully pounces on the opportunity to wipe out the reclusive and under-defended INTP.

ENTJ:
The ENTJ quickly wins the undying loyalty of their soldiers, crushing anyone in their path with ruthless efficiency. Finally they are left sitting on the throne of their empire, ruling as a benevolent dictator, where they are mistaken for a tyrant and assassinated by the ISTP.

ENTP:
The ENTP comes up with a clever plan for besieging castles, and begins to eagerly and relentlessly conquer territory. Eventually they drive their officers and soldiers to and past the point of exhaustion and frustration, however, and they are subsequently killed in a mutiny, leaving their army leaderless and disbanding.

INFJ:
The INFJ balks at the horrible realities of war, and instead turns their army into a police force and relief group, temporarily occupying territory and restoring order and prosperity before moving on. They are eventually confronted by the ENTJ's army, who easily defeats the under-trained and peace-loving INFJ.

INFP:
The INFP takes one look at their soldiers lined up for battle and breaks down in tears at their discipline and loyalty. They dismiss their soldiers back to their homes and families, throw away their armaments, and are discovered soon after by a raiding party who kills them despite the INFP's lack of resistance.

ENFJ:
The ENFJ mesmerizes their army with rousing speeches, leading them to victory after victory, winning the admiration of their men and the love of the people they rule. Eventually they run up against the ENTJ, who challenges them to single combat. They accept and are promptly shot in the back by the ENTJ's men as soon as the opportunity presents itself.

ENFP:
The ENFP soon wins the love of their soldiers, mingling among them and getting to each of them personally. They are terrible at strategy, however, and are easily lured into a clever trap and destroyed by the ENTP.

ISTJ:
The ISTJ whips their army into peak shape, discipline, and effectiveness in no time. They train alongside their men and are utterly respected by all. Eventually they fall prey to sickness, having over-trained, and perish soon afterwards.

ISFJ:
The ISFJ's dedication to truth and justice wins them the admiration of all they come into contact with, even if everyone doesn't always agree with them. One day they run across a caravan of refugees fleeing the destruction of the ESTP, and are destroyed trying to protect them from the ESTJ.

ESTJ:
The ESTJ utilizes brute force and efficient tactics to win their way to the top, eventually establishing a military state where they happily sit back and enjoy their orderly rule. Unfortunately they fall under attack from the ENTP and are defeated by an internal dissident who opens the gates and lets the ENTP's army in.

ESFJ:
The ESFJ's army travels from province to province, always inciting fear and suspicion on their arrival, but quickly reassuring the people they mean no harm and are here to help. On one particular stop, they end up spending too much time with the populace, and half the soldiers get married off to the locals. The ESFJ, now not wanting to leave, decides to settle down and develop the countryside.

ISTP:
The ISTP takes one look at the many troops before them and abandons the army, striking off on their own; reasoning that they don't need an army, they're an ISTP.

ISFP:
The ISFP shuns the idea of conventional warfare, and instead inspires their soldiers to be the change from within. They become an unstoppable cultural force, but are forgotten to military history.

ESTP:
The ESTP is so excited by the prospect of leading an army that they attack everything in sight, burning and pillaging their way across the countryside. They are at last confronted by the ENFJ, who enlists the help of the ISFJ to destroy the ESTP's blight once and for all.

ESFP:
The ESFP doesn't even consider fighting, instead turning their army into a sorority with them at the head. They have a great time partying it up until local resources run dry, and they eventually starve to death.
