Hes like a mini-Dalinar, except the emotional part. Kaladin doesn't really care as a whole if half of the world kills the other half, but he would care if two of his close friends kill eachother. I feel like Kaladin would be a 2 more than 1 (yes this forum is one year old and i am revisiting it now) since I feel like 1's are more structurally about right and wrong, while 2's are more emotionally about being right and wrong. I haven't had much chance to think about it yet.ĭalinar is probably the easiest to place, haha. Sounds like Dalinar.Īdolin- maybe 2w3 or 3w2. As for the strong wing 8, when type 8 becomes is at level 9 of healthiness, they can become brutally destructive when they feel.threatened or betrayed. At level 9 of healthiness, 7s struggle with addiction, in Dalinar's case, drinking. 7s often don't find satisfaction, which fits Dalinar and his relationship with The Thrill. His main motivation was seeking satisfaction (predominantly manifested in his pursuit of the The Thrill). So, I think young Dalinar was a 7 with a very strong wing 8. People aren't typically supposed to change enneagram types, but I think Cultivation's intervention provided a unique opportunity to do so. However, I think he was different when he was younger. At level 9 of unhealthy they can struggle with severe depression. Kaladin is harder, maybe a 1?, with his moral compass being primarily focused on protecting people? As a 1 progresses to unhealthy, they tend to be obsessive over the wrongdoings of others (like his attitude against light eyes). I think you could also make a decent argument for 5 too, but I think overall 9 is a better fit. They also spend so much time being what other people need that they can be pretty unsure about who they are, also a good fit for Shallan. 9 s tend to disconnect from their feelings and problems, which Shallan does. When a 9 reaches level 9 on the healthiness scale, they tend toward multiple personality disorders. She started out trying so hard to hold her family together while they were all falling apart at the seams. I'm not sure it always lines up well, but for a few characters, it seems to work out well enough that I wonder if Brandon Sanderson has studied enneagram types or if he is just that insightful as he develops characters. It is surprising when the corresponding personality type also aligns with that characters fears and desires. What I find interesting to do is to start by comparing Stormlight characters to the level 9 of health for each enneagram type,as each type is prone to one or two mental illnesses at that level, and many Stormlight characters have a pretty obvious mental illness they are battling. I've recently discovered enneagram types and now I am fascinated by trying to categorize Sanderson characters.
