Part VIII.- MIND PROBER PERSONALITY PROFILES OF DS CHARACTERS
=====================================================================
[This section is taken from a few board posts done in April of 1994 by
Judy P5000 (Judy Phillips, founder of the DS Folder on AOL) and appears
as originally sent - with only format changes. Minor added text/editors
notes are in [ ]. Thanks to Judy for her permission to include these in
the FAQ.]
All the recent discussion on personality types has reminded me of an
old computer program I have, called Mind Prober, which gives you a
personality profile of a person based on the answers to a few questions
(actually, you put in Yes or No to a list of about 100 adjectives.)
After putting myself... and everyone else I've ever known to this test,
I've recently gotten the idea to start using it to psychoanalyze DS
characters.....
Following are the personality profiles of:
Barnabas Collins
Quentin Collins
Dr. Julia Hoffman
Angelique Bouchard
----------------------------------
THE MIND PROBER - Barnabas Collins
----------------------------------
"I'm my own worst critic!" Mr. Collins [hereafter called B.C.] might say
in a moment of insight. He can be a strict judge of his own
accomplishments, and quick to believe that others judge him likewise.
Shy and sensitive to criticism, he is most comfortable alone, or with
those few special people who he has learned to trust.
RELATIONSHIPS
=============
MR. B. C. PREFERS A RELIABLE, ACCEPTING COMPANION
At first meeting Mr. B.C may seem wary of becoming involved with others.
He is likely to enter into a relationship only with someone who is
willing to be a steady, and kind partner. It is best to meet him in a
quiet, non-threatening situation. His natural tendency to move slowly
is due to his secret fear of being rejected. If the relationship
encounters rough waters, he is likely to blame himself.
COPING WITH STRESS
===================
MR. B. C. CAN HAVE A TOUGH TIME WITH STRESS
The pressures of everyday living probably weigh heavily on Mr. B.C..
He is likely to worry that a great number of things in life could, and
probably will go wrong. Even ordinary complications are seen as
insurmountable problems. If there is no let up of pressure, he may
resign himself to difficult situations with an attitude of helplessness.
During these times you are likely to see him withdraw from others.
Although he needs support, he may be unable to ask directly for help.
PERSONAL INTERESTS
==================
MR B. C. REVEALS HIS INTERESTS TO ONLY A CHOSEN FEW
Mr. B.C. will work hard at perfecting his skills. He may be reluctant
to discuss his personal interests with any but his closest friend. When
he does talk about a hobby or project he's working on, it's with a close
friend or two in familiar surroundings. His interests tend to be middle
of the road - nothing too spicy or exotic, but personally very rewarding.
ATTITUDES TOWARDS SEX
=====================
MR. B. C. MOVES CAUTIOUSLY TOWARDS A SERIOUS COMMITMENT
Mr. B. C. will move slowly toward a sexual encounter, all the while
giving subtle hints of his interest. He will spend a great deal of
time testing his prospective partner's willingness and acceptability.
Once he has received sufficient assurance that the feelings are mutual,
he is likely to show tenderness and commitment to his companion. However,
he would probably feel tremendously hurt by rejection or infidelity on
the part of his lover.
WHAT MAKES MR. B. C. TICK
=========================
Mr. B. C. would secretly like to live in a world of beauty and
tranquility, inhabited by gentle people. In such a setting he could feel
free to express himself without fear of criticism or exploitation. In
the meantime, he deals cautiously with others, testing their goodwill
and intentions before allowing them to come close. He sometimes feels the
need for a protective shell. While Mr. B.C. is generally a quiet person
who spends a good deal of his time alone, he is likely to have a few
friendships which are quite important to him. Friendships seem to be an
all or none phenomenon, as he forms an intimate bond with the few people
he allows near him.
---------------------------------
THE MIND PROBER - Quentin Collins
---------------------------------
Outspoken and confident about his opinions, Mr. Quentin Collins [hereafter
called Q.C.] won't hesitate to let you know what is on his mind. However,
social tact is not one of Mr. Q.C.'s strong points. You are likely to
notice his occasional sarcasm or teasing of others. He doesn't have much
curiosity about other's reactions, preferring to do what he believes is
right.
RELATIONSIPS
============
MR. Q.C. CAN BE FUN MIXED WITH TROUBLE
Mr. Q.C. chooses friends who seek excitement, and are able to create
their own entertainment. Although Mr. Q.C. can make a favorable first
impression, underneath his attractive exterior is a person who can
unintentionally hurt others. He doesn't understand that his sense of
humor can make him a difficult person to be around. When Mr. Q.C. is
involved in a project or cause, his high energy level may cause others
to burn out if they spend very much time with him. Personal loyalties
and emotional relationships may have little importance to him during
such times.
COPING WITH STRESS
==================
MR. Q.C. CONSIDERS STRESS THE SPICE OF LIFE, UP TO A POINT
A certain amount of stress adds excitement to Mr. Q.C.'s way of life.
It keeps him alert and on his toes. Even when the pressure builds,
he's still likely to act as if he were in control. If the stress does
grow beyond his ability to cope effectively, he may act recklessly without
thinking of what he is saying or doing.
PERSONAL INTERESTS
==================
UNUSUAL OR UNORTHODOX FIELDS INTRIGUE MR. Q.C.
Mr. Q.C. can be described as a self starter. He is not likely to be
afraid to tackle a complicated problem or try a challenging project.
Few things intimidate him. He constantly struggles to prevent life
from becoming boring or mundane, by pursuing interests that are novel
or unusual. Expect him to be a trend setter - the first on the block
with the latest invention, gadget, attitude, or idea.
ATTITUDES TOWARDS SEX
=====================
MR Q.C. ENJOYS SURPRISES IN HIS SEXUAL RELATIONSHIPS
The way to keep Mr. Q.C. interested in sex is to let your imagination
run wild. You will continually need to come up with new and diverting
suggestions to keep his interest high. He likes changing routines and
surprises. He can be a creative and intense partner, however, emotional
intimacy doesn't much interest him. His self-sufficiency allows him to
enjoy being alone, as much as he enjoys being with his partner.
WHAT MAKES MR Q.C. TICK
=======================
Mr. Q.C. is his own person, and tends to be quite sure of himself.
He does not accept ideas or values without question, but will take
the time to evaluate them and make his own decisions. Others may see
him as insensitive or uncaring, because he finds it hard to appreciate
their perspectives. He prefers to involve himself with ideas and things
instead of people. Mr. Q.C. has a quick temper, and will not hesitate to
let you know if he disagrees with you. This kind of person does not take
criticism well, and can be quite argumentive. Mr. Q.C. is not bothered
by confrontation - provided he wins, and may even enjoy fighting with
others.
-------------------------------
THE MIND PROBER - Julia Hoffman
-------------------------------
Live and let live might be Ms. Julia Hoffman's [hereafter called J.H.]
attitude toward life. Her relaxed, casual manner reflects her tolerance
for other people and their lifestyles. However, if she feels mistreated
or wronged, she will not take it lying down. Her even temperament has
its limits, although they are far and broad.
RELATIONSHIPS
=============
YOU CAN COUNT ON MS. J.H. TO KEEP UP THE RELATIONSHIP
Ms. J.H. is a stable, well grounded individual. If you are in trouble,
she is the person to call. She would make a good neighbor, or friend,
because you can depend on her to be there most of the time. Her pleasant,
even temperament makes her an easy person to be involved with. She rarely
takes part in intense emotional conflicts unless she has due cause to
become angry. She prefers easygoing companions and good times.
COPING WITH STRESS
==================
MS. J.H. MAINTAINS A BALANCED OUTLOOK, EVEN WHEN FEELING STRESS
When life throws Ms. J.H. a curve, she runs with it. Problems in
everyday living don't usually bother her. When all does not go well,
she can usually stay calm. Typically she is free of the emotional highs
and lows that can come from ordinary stress. If undue pressure builds up
in Ms. J.H.'s environment, you might notice that she momentarily loses
control. This is just a temporary state however, and will probably pass
once the stress lets up.
PERSONAL INTERESTS
==================
MS. J.H. ADJUSTS HER INTERESTS IN ORDER TO JOIN WITH OTHERS
Ms. J.H. cheerfully joins in with family or friends in activities they all
enjoy. She is able to change her plans, either to take advantage of an
invitation, or to spend time alone working on personal hobbies. She tends
to be content with a variety of personal interests. Her preferences will
usually mirror those of other people in her immediate environment.
ATTITUDES TOWARDS SEX
=====================
COMPATIBILITY IS MS J.H.'S MIDDLE NAME
Ms. J.H. can be a considerate and adaptable partner. Her style of
lovemaking can range from gentle to assertive, depending on her
companion's
needs. She is likely to be fairly adept at figuring out what you want.
Compatibility guides her sexual behavior, as long as your requests are
within the bounds of what she considers reasonable.
WHAT MAKES MS. J.H. TICK
========================
Ms. J.H. lives in a state of internal balance. When something occurs
to threaten this balance, she makes a few adjustments in her life and -
voila! - all is again in harmony. You may be certain, that anything
causing her to lose control is a serious situation indeed.
Disorganization
and chaos may bother Ms. J.H. She could spend a lot of her time
arranging things so that her life is predictable and she is in control.
Ms. J.H. will want background information on any issue before she takes
action. If life gets a bit hectic, expect her to step back and take stock
in what is going on around her.
------------------------------------
THE MIND PROBER - Angelique Bouchard
------------------------------------
This is one person who does not want to be cornered or overly committed
in any situation. Ms. Angelique Bouchard [a.k.a. Miranda du Val,
Angelique
Collins, Valerie Collins, Cassandra {Blair} Collins and Angelique Rumson
will be called A.B. from here on] likes to stay free of constraints that
could prevent her from doing what she wants. Her personal goals will
take precedence over the plans other people may have for her.
RELATIONSHIPS
=============
EXPECT MS. A.B. TO BE SKEPTICAL OF OTHERS
Interpersonally, it may seem like Ms. A.B. is mad at something or
someone. Her aggressiveness is actually her way of protecting herself.
She is likely to be suspicious of people with whom she is in a
relationship. Ms. A.B. figures out what other people are secretly
planning, often making assumptions on shaky grounds. She then makes
decisions about how involved she will let herself become, usually
preferring to stay out of the way of others.
COPING WITH STRESS
==================
MS. A.B. PREFERS TO HANDLE PROBLEMS ALONE
When stress builds up in Ms. A.B.'s life, she prefers to handle it alone.
She may act more reclusive than usual, becoming sarcastic and cynical.
Coping with stress is not one of her strengths. She finds life difficult
to adjust to even in the absence of acute stress.
PERSONAL INTERESTS
==================
MS. A.B.'S INTERESTS MAY RUN TO THE ECCENTRIC
Ms. A.B.'s pursuits would not usually be called middle of the road or
main line. She seeks out unusual subjects which can lead to the
development of specialized, unique knowledge. It would be difficult to
talk her into hobbies or projects that require close work or cooperation
with others. She is her own person and the sole decision maker over which
way her interests will take her.
ATTITUDES TOWARDS SEX
======================
MS. A.B. KNOWS WHAT SHE WANTS FROM A SEXUAL RELATIONSHIP
Ms. A.B. tends to believe strongly that sexual relationships have to be
conducted in specific ways. She is convinced that things have to be just
so in order for them to be good. She is likely to demand that her partner
go along with her wishes or ideas. Although she may miss out on a lot,
she usually will resist changing. She has her guidelines and requires
that they be followed. A willingness to concede or bend to others is not
her forte.
WHAT MAKES MS. A.B. TICK
========================
Ms. A.B. is not likely to share the ideals and values of mainstream
society.
She finds it difficult to see eye-to-eye with others, and prefers to avoid
conflicts and spend her time alone. Expect her to engage in unusual
projects without the confounding influence of others. For Ms. A.B. being
able to stand on her own two feet is very important. An independent
person,
she is not likely to ask others for personal favors. She dislikes
behaving
in a helpless, ingratiating fashion.
