I’ve always thought of Aang as an ENFP, as I see a lot of Ne in his zaniness and just the way he comes up with ideas (he always approaches challenges with a creative, out-of-the-box problem-solving ability that I think Ne users are particularly adept at). I also think he’s often driven Fi, as his first instinct when it comes to making a decision is to do what he wants. And I don’t mean to say that he’s selfish, but rather that he has his own ideas of right and wrong based on the premise “can I live with this decision?” For Aang to believe his role as the hero is justified, he can’t do anything that would compromise those personal moral standards. When I compare this to someone like Captain America (I believe a true INFJ), he is more willing to make tough choices based upon the greater good for society. Again, not to say Aang can’t think of the greater good, and that Cap doesn’t have an individual moral compass, but I think there’s an Fe vs. Fi divide in how they prioritize those two.

Idk. I guess I’m just curious to see your justification for Aang as an INFJ, as admittedly I disagree with it quite strongly, but I respect the thought that goes into your typing so much that I’d love to see what that thought process was. I don’t know if you have a post somewhere that deals with it?
