Description Just poking fun at those lucky enough to be Masterminds.

According to the Myers Brigg personality types, INTJ and INFJ are both supposed to be equally hyper-intelligent.
However, if that's the case then..........  

INTJs, by definition, excel at designing systems and using hard logic. They are often described as human machines or human calculators. Notable examples that I can think of are Mycroft Holmes of the vast "Sherlock Holmes" universe and Seven Of Nine the cyborg in "Star Trek: Voyager". INTJs seem to suffer when it comes to trying to make sense of human nature, because human nature seems to be made up of completely random contradictions.

INFJs, however, understand people at a deep, intuitive level. Apparently INFJs use a whole different system of "logic" that isn't based on mathematics, quantities, algorithmic codes, facts and figures, etc.... And with this ease of understanding their fellow man comes POWER over them! (Fortunately, also with this ease of understanding comes plain-old understanding, or sympathy, usually therefore INFJs are disproportionately benevolent compared to other personality types and therefore less likely to try and take over the world with this power. ) ...The best notable example that I can think of is The Shadow, a dark yet crime-fighting ESPer created as a radio-show in the late 1930s, who was literally THE inspiration for Batman, and still has a cult-following to this day. Another example was Remus Lupin in the "Harry Potter" universe; between Dementors and Boggarts, he seems to be the series's expert on psychological-warfare and teaching people how to control their fears instead of being controlled by them. Lupin also embodies the old wisdom, "Those that are kindest have suffered the most"; having grown up as an outcast because of his werewolf condition, he makes a point of listening to others' problems when they need someone 'sober' to talk to.... One of said 'powers', and the true validation of being an INFJ, is the ability to impersonate other personality types, including INTJs. (INTJs, in reverse, cannot usually impersonate INFJs since empathy with senseless humans is specifically INTJs' weakest point.) Another 'power' is the ability to reshape others' minds! INFJs, when so motivated, know all the right pressure-points in a person's character to break and remake the shape of that person's very freewill!!! It's an horrific power.... And the reason why I personally would call INFJs human mechanics or human machinists. It is an INFJ's great pleasure to 'pop the hood' on someone's psychology just to find out what motivates them, like a car collector studying an engine.

In short, INFJs are to psychology what INTJs are to hard systems. Even when two particular individuals are of equal IQ, the 'human machine', still being human regardless of whether or not they know or acknowledge it, is still subject to getting mentally dismantled by the 'human machinist'.  ಠvಠ

Nowhere have I heard it said before, but I personally have noticed------ INFJs seem to be a little afraid of each other! Maybe for that very reason? INFJs instinctively know how dangerous to their own freewill others of their own kind are?  Maybe it's because INFJs are [by definition] introverts, and nothing makes one feel more naked than suddenly being recognized for exactly who they are on the inside, when INFJs are only used to the whole world making them feel downright invisible because of its lack of mutual understanding. That feeling of invisibility having become INFJs' snuggly and secure hiding place----it gets suddenly stripped-away when two meet each other!   


Okay okay, I'll stop rambling now and go back to unfolding more Bloodborne papercrafts.
I just needed a respite for some silly, mind-bending memes....

Hmmmmm, Mind-bending?
That's a perfect description, given Avatar context.

BTW I think that would be an offshoot of fire-bending, since fire-benders can manipulate lightning.
Bending another person's thoughts would require fine-tuned manipulation of the bio-electricity within their nervous system....

I don't even have a goatee, and I've used that emote 3 times here alone.

Ni-doms will take over the world. As an Ne-aux, I just want their help staying focused. Let's dial it back a bit, Ni.
