Whether you swear by them or otherwise, it can’t be denied that personality tests – and categorising one’s personality in general – are always a source of entertainment. Case in point? That never-ending curiosity surrounding things like horoscopes, the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI), and even frivolous topics like ‘what pizza are you?’
Well, here’s another one to try: the Innate Personality Traits test by Taiwan Design Expo that's currently trending hard in Singapore. Unlike the MBTI test with more serious questions that bring up potential real-life situations, this one is more lighthearted, and takes you on a mythical adventure in a fantasy world with cute animations to boot. We won’t give you too many spoilers, but be prepared to encounter mysterious caves, talking birds, and a sea with glittery gold water along the way.
Results are mostly elemental-based and somewhat reminiscent of Pokémon types – with some examples being Light, Rock, and Steel – but there are also a couple of more whimsical-sounding ones like Fairy and Feline. Each results card shows a list of five phrases you might find yourself saying, along with nine character traits. You’ll also get to see which other innate personality types you are least and most compatible with, so you can have fun comparing with your friends and partner.
There are 16 results in total, namely: Water, Light, Grass, Poison, Flying, Fire, Feline, Steel, Super Power, Ice, Fairy, Ground, Electric, Rock, Wind, and Ghost.
There also happens to be a list showing how the 16 results correspond to each of the 16 MBTI personality types, as well as various Enneagram types. However, bear in mind that this matching of Innate Personality Traits to MBTI and Enneagram types is simply a theory, and isn’t by the original creators of the quiz. In addition to that, we've noticed the results fluctuating over time – Fire was listed as ENFP the first time we checked, but later on got changed to ESFP. This is probably because the matches have been made based on user input, and people are still in the process of submitting their results on the platform. Still, it’ll be interesting to see how yours compares and whether it’s accurate. Gotta take everything with a pinch of salt, though!
