The Case for Rinoa Heartily as an ESFj (by tcaudilllg)

Rinoa Heartily exhibits traits common to ESFjs. She is very outgoing, ethical, enthusiastic, and warm-hearted. Her poor :Ni: shows itself in her poor planning, which leads to a failed attempt to capture Galbadian President Deling. Her :Te: shows itself in her role as a sorceress - she transmits power between figures, one time allowing herself to be a spritual conduit for time compressions. This very act, indeed, is demonstrative of the flow between :Te: role into :Fe: point of least resistance: the exchange of energy leads to a sequential progression, in this case a change in time. The specific change in time demonstrates the nature of :Ni: PoLR: there is no perception of sequence, no flow of time. From this static state emerges the impetus to construct a new reality: the dual-seeking function of :Ti: gives order to the timelessness :Ni: chaos and creates the :Ne: possibility of a new progression of events. Her heart congeals herself as an :Fi: field static in the now-reanimated field of time-compressed space, allowing her the :Se: will to experience reality anew. Rinoa emerges from the darkness of the unconscious to defeat Ultimecia in :Si: combat.

Like most ESFjs, Rinoa pays close attention to what people around her are experiencing, although it could be argued that what she experiences most are her own feelings. She is adept at shifting people's moods by shifting their experiences of reality; a little enthusiasm goes a long way.
