Mad Max: Fury Road: The Dag [ISFP]

UNOFFICIAL TYPING by wellbehavedwomendomakehistory 

Introverted Feeling (Fi): The Dag is very in tune with her emotions, has strong convictions she doesn’t let go of, and though she doesn’t open up to outsiders easily, she is very honest about how she feels. She has a deep sense of self that years of captivity and sexual abuse can’t waver. Very private and calm, she is still full of fire- kicking the chastity belt on the ground and spitting on it before running to catch up with the others, or snipping at those who don’t match up with her moral code. She initially resents Max, a strange outsider who planned to take the women back to Joe, interfering (until he proves he’s trustworthy to her later). She is something of an idealist disillusioned with the broken world, telling the Vuvalini she admired, “Thought somehow you girls were above all that” when told the Many Mothers aren’t above killing.

Extroverted Sensing (Se): Dag quietly sizes up her surroundings with her excellent observational skills. She is quick to notice things- the approaching war fleets both times. She becomes fascinated with the Keeper of the Seed’s story of the past abundance of nature on earth and takes an interest in the bag of seeds she keeps, eventually saving them to plant at the Citadel. She is quick to use opportunities when presented to them, such as pretending to be too weak to cut Max’s chain to distract him or biting Nux. Dag doesn’t seem to like sitting still long, often grabbing someone’s hand or making gestures if she must. She’s quick to adapt and jump onto new plans, agreeing with the idea to go back to the Citadel, knowing it has the necessary resources for a new life. She subtly decorates herself, covering her fingers in unique tattoos, often changing her hairstyle, and is one of the only Wives to choose to wear boots with an otherwise flimsy outfit.

Introverted Intuition (Ni): The Dag is very dreamy and imaginative, expressing herself in poetic ways nobody but she can understand. She looks for faith of some kind. She prays to “anyone who’s listening” and is determined to find the Green Place to get away from the violence she had been surrounded by. She immediately senses a kindred spirit in the Keeper of the Seeds and knows that they’ll be able to thrive at the Citadel should they successfully take it over. She is sure her baby will be “ugly” since Joe is a sickly tyrant himself, until the Keeper points out there’s just as good a chance it could be a girl.

Extroverted Thinking (Te): Though she almost never uses this function, Dag wants control over her own life and isn’t afraid to go out into the world to achieve her freedom, knowing the cons of such an attempt out in the Wasteland. She is quick to bluntly express her opinions to others as well.
