Mass Effect: The Illusive Man [INTJ]
UNOFFICIAL TYPING by orikon32
Introverted Intuition (Ni): The Illusive Man strongly believes in his vision of humanity being a superior race in the galaxy and always works towards fulfilling that vision. He has many different projects in motion,all factoring (in one way or another) into helping humanity take “its rightful place in the galaxy”.
He is also a careful planner;always a step ahead of everybody else,and nobody knows his true intentions when dealing with him. He often sees symbolism in things and believes Cerberus to be a protector of humanity,despite the fact that everyone else sees it as merely a terrorist group. (“I’d expect you to say that. You never truly believed in us. Cerberus isn’t just an organization or the people behind it. Cerberus is an idea. That idea is not so easily destroyed.” - TIM)
Extroverted Thinking (Te): The Illusive Man believes that the end always justifies the means (“Judge us not by our methods, but by what we seek to accomplish.”). He is very organized,thorough,and calculated,and he has no issues with using whatever resources or methods he has at his disposal to accomplish his goals,no matter what price they may have. He also puts a lot of emphasis on being in control,especially when it comes to Reaper technology.
(“If we can control it,why shouldn’t be ours?”). He will easily get angered if his plans fall apart (i.e. Shepard destroying the Collector Base instead of saving it) or if people disobey him due to their personal beliefs.
Introverted Feeling (Fi):
The Illusive Man never shows his emotions,as he puts them aside to get the job done. But despite his methods,he cares for humanity (so he devotes most of his life to securing its preservation and dominance). Loyalty is also important to him,so he will give important or sensitive tasks only to people he knows he can fully trust and who won’t betray him.
Extroverted Sensing (Se): Before founding Cerberus,the Illusive Man was a mercenary,and briefly fought the Turians in The First Contact War. And even though he doesn’t usually travel beyond his HQ at the Cronos Station,he does show slight interest in sensory experiences (i.e. being tempted to go with Shepard beyond the Omega 4 Relay).
