Female INTP Characters

[Sparrow]

Anyone know of any female INTP characters?

 

[Anthile]

Uh, C.C. from Code Geass and Juliet from Lost. Maybe.

Temperance Brennan - Bones (possibly J)

If I think of more I'll post them.

I'm trying to think of some but I can't at the moment. Maybe that's why I tend to relate more to male characters?

My guess would be to look at the friend who makes dry, perceptive comments about what the female protagonist is going through. In other words, supporting roles, not main.

 

[The Black Raven]

Seven of Nine in Voyager. (Although to be honest, her very high level of organization, and her occasional disinterest in exploring tangent information or theories makes me believe she's a j)

Daria?

I agree she seems very much like an INTP. She's also someone I used to get compared to when I was in high school.

As for Seven of Nine, I'm sure there's others that are more familiar with the character than I, but from what I've seen, if I had to hazard a guess I would say more likely a J as well.

I can't remember their names but I'm sure a few of Issac Asimov's female characters were INTPs, as were many of his male characters.

Seven is a very strong TJ.

 

[The Black Raven]

And I've seen multiple internet pages with her and Data as TP. >:[

Another vote for Daria! My mom always used to compare me to her...

The internet told you?!

Well why didn't you say so, that changes everything! The internet is never wrong!

Meh, Juliette's far more the self-controlled INFJ.

Daria sounds possible.

The lack of presence out there is frustrating, I think that INTP characters in general do not "play well" especially as protagonists. They tend to be passive, unfortunately, and internalized -- all the action happens inside. Thus they tend not to appear at all except as part of a broader ensemble.

I even have trouble thinking of male INTPs aside from the 'geek stereotype.' There is potentially Ricky from American Beauty (who seems pretty IxTP, he is indifferent to authority but not mean; his whole gist is to observe and understand, even macabre subjects like death, he depersonalizes things with his camera to study them but respects Jane's space when she asks him to stop; he expresses feelings and commitments without much nuance; at movie's end, his flexy demeanor shifts to immediate Ti go-for-the-jugular; he seems adrift but accepting of his lack of roots).

Or maybe Todd Anderson in Dead Poet's Society (INxP)... he definitely is more of the "sweeter" variation that is gentle with people and has trouble finding value in himself, rather than the colder type. Similar to Juno's bf in "Juno" ... although they could bot be INFP.
