    Default Shadow Skill's Blackwind Diaz

    Anyone ever seen this show? I discerned Diaz to be LII. This in itself did not make him interesting, however; what made him interesting was the fact that he dies in episode 21, defeated by Darkness.

    It's interesting that Diaz offers defense as a strategy instead of attack, especially given that LII foreground Se is +. LII prefers offense in a conflict situation. For LII to rely on defense instead implies a use of -Se, because -Se discerns first the external assault (that which LII fears most) and suggests the need for a defense against the same.

    It seems to me that Diaz's use of -Se in the foreground (as vunerable) allowed him to bring out the best in the people around him. (+Fi) This is seen when Gau rises up and defeats Darkness despite near mortal injury. Let us also consider that it was a mark of character to use defense instead of offense, suggesting that only by putting +Fi in the foreground (as role) could a defensive strategy be adopted.

    This seems like a very complicated psychological situation that is well worth further investigation. I guess it goes without saying, but... it seems probable that the sacrificial mentality is one of the same. Diaz gives Darkness his soul, which Jung equated to the feeling in a logical person.

    What does it mean to offer one's "soul"?

    It basically means that you're an idiot.
