    Based on the Show. There was a rerun the past month. I rewatched Season 2. Couldn’t get to watch the whole Season 3 and 4 this week though. They start with Season 5 here this week. So maybe I get to catch up on this one. I read some spoilers and watched some scenes (Stannis, Sansa, Jon) beforehand. The characters are kinda 3 dimensional. You know with the books, it’s interesting how GRRM really writes the whole story from different point of views. Trying to get into the characters head and trying to capture their voice and if you take a look at it, you see how very diverse and multifaceted the characters are. You can come up with a lot of argumentations and that keeps stuff interesting. I kinda saw all the characters and the universe like some puzzle. Trying to make the pieces fit. I might change some of my typings when new information comes up or when I think there is a better overall fit.

    The Starks:

    Ned Stark: LSE-Si 6w5
    Somehow fitting the ‚Father‘ Archetype. I think people typing him introverted ST might be right/have a point to. I saw some E1 typings for him. I personally would go with E6. But I think seeing him being part of the compliant triad is not too off. I went with E6 though, because in my eyes he has a more community oriented bent. What I mean is that with E1 it’s more a compliancy to their super-ego, and sometimes to the point against the community. Wheras E6 is more embedded into it and actually has more fears to go against it. He is more of a ‚softer‘ father figure. Compare him to Stannis, who I have down as E1 poster child. Stannis has a way more stern, authorative vibe. Ned Stark (although he is ruling the North) seems more ‚approachable‘ to his people. Presenting himself more in a ‚I‘m actually one of you‘ way towards his people. Pulling them to his side, winning their loyality that way. With Stannis in contrast, the tone is more ‚Follow me, because it’s right.‘.
    Catelyn Stark: ESE-Si 1w2
    Fitting the ‚Mother‘ Archetype. I think typing here as introverted, might be right, too. I personally was leaning towards ESE. I mean there are some LSE typings for her and with ESE as LSE’s look alike, I could see how that is kind of possible. Also like how people say she is quite forceful. I think that could be the case with Se demonstrative. She is for me like the archetype of this down-to-earth, practical minded, mother figure. Like idk.. she has this vibe, that nobody would ever question her standing as mother/what she would do/what lengths she would go for her children/family. Like of course caring for your children is not type related, but with her you get more the feeling that more of her ‚ego‘ is bleeding into her role. It’s like her core. The key to her personality and a lot of things she does. She has this vibe of practical mindedness and she kind of makes me think how she has a lot of valuable advice, based on her life and experiences/things she went through, but somehow it gets overlooked ... funny enough at the end of the day, she turned out right. Idk made me think of this ‚Listen to your mother‘ thing. I could see 1w2 for her.
    Sansa Stark: SEI-Fe
    I also saw EII typings for her. I think that’s not out of the possible. I think introverted-ethical with unvalued Se is probably, what you could argue for her. I was personally leaning towards SEI, because I think she showed, good and high Fe use since the beginning. When she was younger, it was more along the lines of ‚pleasentness‘. In her scenes, you can really feel how she gauges the ‚atmosphere‘ of the situation and responds to it with some kind of adjusting herself/choosing her words carefully. I think more blunt people might be seeing it as her just ‚mincing‘ words. But I somehow see the internal thinking rattling in the background. For me it’s not like she has some kind of introverted feeling rationale (like her sister Arya) but is more ‚managing‘ with her feeling function - more managing ‚others‘ reactions towards her. Like it’s her her ego tactic - trying to navigate, gauging the tone, the atmosphere of the situation and then trying to veer herself through it, in order to survive. I thought that was creative Fe. I could see her and her mother as mirrors. It’s often said, that they resemble one another (also physically). I mean for me it’s like not too hard to see, that overall they are kind of similiar (but not identical).
    Robb Stark: LxE
    I would lean more towards LSE. I think his fathers Identical. I would also see more an community oriented compliant triad for him - E6. EDIT: maybe not E6.
    Arya Stark: SEE-Se
    High Se, very organic and natural use of it since the beginning. I saw also typings of her as an introvert. I personally don’t think of her as an introvert. Since the beginning (while she was still quite young) she is always roaming around, ‚going places‘ and what I mean is, it’s like she always has this massive input via Se. Like she is not building up some sort of introverted rationale/perception of the world first. She grabs Se from the get go. I think EP kind of fits. Wherever she ends up, she kinda gets her ass out, she always kinda gets along. She reacts quickly to new upcoming circumstances. I think she is an Fi ego and not an Ti ego, because she has some knee jerk reactions, where you kind of feel, you are crossing her feeling rationale - this is not right. She also vibes like she prefers to grab quick facts of a situation, that seem kind of more directive – getting to the goal, than building up a introverted logic system, where you just have her utter snippets of it here and there.

    Another example of her Se. I think that was when they arrived at Harrenhal and Tywin Lannister spots her. She was actually running away after Ned Starks beheading, trying to fool people that shes a boy. Tywin sees, that shes not one and Arya is like ‚it’s safer that way‘ and Tywin is like ‚smart‘, like he has an instant sort of respect/liking for her, because of her idk - maybe not the best word... ‚street smarts‘. From the books it’s also mentioned how she always had a good natural understanding with Jon. Jon, who also gave her ‚needle‘ (a sword), before he goes off to the Nigths Watch. Arya remembers it later in the books, thinking of Jon and how ‚needle‘ is Jons smile.
     
    Overall when you look at the Starks, the family kinda vibes Ne/Si. With Ned and Catelyn as the EJ Si creatives for me. I think they are both leading with extroverted judging functions, having some kind of extraverted rationale behind their actions first and foremost, amplified by them being part of the compliant triad. Robb and Sansa are the ones, who kind of resemble their parents the most or kind of align the most with the overall dominant vibe of the family. With Sansa being a bit lighter, more Fe creative for me. Jon and Arya though strike out. I mean yeah Jons the bastard, but still... with him and Arya, they get along naturally. Ni/Se for them imo.. Idk how Bran and Rickon would have fitted in, were too young to say.
