Characters in television shows, movies, and cartoons are categorized in many ways by fans. Whether it be by Hogwart’s house, Zodiac sign, or simply by their interests, audiences find ways to quickly understand which characters they are going to relate to.
The MBTI or Myers-Briggs Type Indicator categorizes people into 16 different personality types. The personality type INFP is known as “The Mediator” and includes people and characters who are on the more introverted side and who try to create less conflict by uniting those around them. INFPs are creative, empathetic, and sensitive. Despite being a rarer personality type, can be found in many cartoons.
