Like many other ISFJs, Riza prefers working in the background playing a supporting role where she can make a significant, positive difference. ![]() She’s intensely loyal and people-focused in all her decision making, a trait common to FJ types. Riza never wanted to be a soldier, but since she is one and she’s a talented sharpshooter, she’s devoted herself to using those skills to help and protect others. “I will follow you into hell if you ask me to.” –Riza Hawkeye He’s also a charming, charismatic man when he wants to be, and he inspires great loyalty in the people following him. Like other Intuitive types, he keeps the big picture in mind and works toward an ideal future goal, but he grounds that vision with a strong Extroverted Thinking side that helps him find logical, effective solutions to problems. The strong, decisive presence and keen intellect of ENTJs earns them nicknames like “Strategist” or “Fieldmarshal.” The Flame Alchemist Roy Mustang fits that mold perfectly. It seems like the least we tiny humans can do for each other.” –Roy Mustang But, with whatever little strength I’m capable of… I’ll do everything humanly possible to protect the people I love, and in turn they’ll protect the ones they love. “The power of one man doesn’t amount to much. She’s driven by a desire to make sense of things and understand how they work, whether that’s people or automail parts. She is more comfortable expressing her emotions than your stereotypical ISTP (which is why she’s often typed as an FJ), but she processes those emotions logically. The unique strengths of this personality type lend themselves to all sorts of a careers, interests, skills, and hobbies. I like that she shows not every ISTP (even in fiction) fits the action-hero mold. One of the nicknames given to ISTPs is “The Mechanic,” and that’s exactly what Winry is. “If you think I’m a gear-head, that’s fine, but you had better get used to it!

I believe in the potential that alchemy holds. If I deny myself, that would mean I’m denying my brother, along with alchemy. ![]() ![]() But inconveniences don’t make me miserable! There is no reason for you to pity me! My life was put back together with alchemy by my brother. “This body comes with many inconveniences.

His Extroverted Intuition helps him think outside the box and motivates him to explore the limits of his world. Rules are made to be broken, or at least tested to their limits. Like so many real-life ENTPs, The Fullmetal Alchemist Edward Elric is intelligent, perceptive, and hates following other people’s rules.
