Which Enneagram Type are your characters? I'd love to know! And don't forget to grab my Enneagram Reference Guide by signing up for my Newsletter! www.authorbrittanywang.com/members

@BethanyAtazadeh 2 года назад

Loved this breakdown of the enneagram numbers! So helpful for creating characters with depth!

@derekclendening7966 2 года назад

This video really hit the nail on the head. I often find people easy to figure out because we often fall into certain categories (i.e. "The Perfectionist"), and those categories often to have pretty consistent accompanying tendencies. It's absolutely crucial to apply this to creating believable characters.

@shawnmcnamara7283 Год назад

Extremely helpful, I'm useless and lost without structure and you've given me a way to identify and structure my character builds quickly and easily. Thank you!

@Random-rc4um 2 года назад

This might be THE most useful character development resource I have seen. Thank you for this!

@lajourdanne 10 месяцев назад

I think the typing of secondary characters is a little difficult because you don’t get to always see them as healthy and you might only see them under stress (hence mistyping them).

@marcellacassab4331 Год назад

I also have a character I mistyped as a 7 at first but later discovered was a 2w3. She's an extremely bubbly, fun-loving, friendly, enthusiastic and emotional Barbie-esque doll. I knew she longs to be unconditionally loved and fears ending up alone but I was hesitant to type her as a 2 because like I said, she's pretty emotional. She also doesn't really hide or deny her needs. But when I discovered subtypes and countertypes it all made sense. She's a Self Preservation 2w3. SP 2s tend to be a little more childish and seek to be cared for BY others more so than care FOR others. Not that she never cares for others, but especially at the start she's pretty needy and surprisingly insecure. She always craves others approval. So this makes a lot more sense for her.

@marcellacassab4331 Год назад

My MC in the first book is a Bratz-esque doll whom I believe is a 1w2. She's extremely driven, intelligent, bookish, disciplined and eager to prove she's more than just a pretty face. It's interesting that you type Hermione Granger as a 3, most other sources type her as a 1. I often describe my MC as "Hermione Granger or Twilight Sparkle if they were trapped in Sasha from the Bratz body (sans magic, just in terms of personality)"

@lpsloveroflight3020 2 года назад

This has been so helpful! thank you. My main character's enneagram types are 2w3, 8w7, 3w2, 7w6 and 4w3.

@MrZkoki 11 месяцев назад

Very analytical and thorough. Thank you Ms Wang!

@jasmint7679 2 года назад

This is great, and so is your explanation. I'd love to use this but I don't think my brain works like that. I usually just "know" the character, the only thing I really need to think about is the character arc, so figuring out the Want, Need, Lie, and Backstory. The Enneagram could probably help with that, but I'm afraid I'd try to force certain need or want on a character so it'd fit them.

@TaLila360 9 месяцев назад

Very useful video! Just one type example I don't agree with is Dr Strange. At least in the movie he was obsessed with glory that his job of a surgeon might bring. Over time he grew to realise there are more important things than his image in people's eyes. In my view his type is clear 3. Sherlock Holmes might be a better example of 5 here.

That's a great video in a great timing when I was stuck knowing my protagonist ,now I can continue of my story... Thank you ☺️

@storiesbydesirae 2 года назад

This was so helpful! Thank you for sharing. As I was listening along, I was able to realize what type each of my characters is in my novella!

That’s so great!! What types did they end up being?

@storiesbydesirae 2 года назад

@@AuthorBrittanyWang One of my main characters is The Perfectionist and has the qualities of The Helper. My other main character/antagonist is The Individualist. The friend is The Investigator. And the friend's dad is The Achiever.

@a.l.dowdall1097 2 года назад

Serendipity! I've been looking for a good character profile that meshes with the Enneagram for two days. I glanced over the reference sheets already; they look great. 👍 Nice to find another type five writer, too. My heroine is a type six, I think. It's still early in the process.

@authormarywockenfuss 2 года назад

This is great! Thank you so much for sharing this! I'll have to go through my Project Star Dreamer draft with this video to see which Enneagrams my characters are. And possibly the characters I created for the Power Rangers RPG my brothers and I are about to play.

@AuthorBrittanyWang 2 года назад

Yay!! I'm so glad you found the video helpful, Mary! And I would LOVE to see what your Enneagram types your characters end up being! I actually just shared on Instagram that people can use the #EnneagramYourCharacters hashtag to share theirs when they have them all set! :D (P.S. ummm a Power Rangers RPG! That brings me back

@authormarywockenfuss 2 года назад

@@AuthorBrittanyWang I will definitely share! And the Power Rangers RPG is new, releasing this Saturday in its paper copy while the PDF version is already available (at least for those who pre-ordered). This is my first RPG and I'm looking forward to it!

Oh wow!! I didn't know it was finished already, that's so exciting! Where are you releasing it?

@@AuthorBrittanyWang oh it's not ours!! Sorry, I didn't make that clear. It's put out by Renegade Game Studios. You could check their website and probably Amazon.

1. Yes, I did just go buy The Road Back to You after watching this video. I’m saying it’s an author business expense 😂 2. I know this video was a beast to film and edit, but you did GREAT! I love how thoroughly you researched and compiled the information for everyone. 3. I think it’s hilarious that you consider Ron a 6, which is my enneagram type. Yet I can’t STAND him 😂. Yes, I did want Rowling to kill him off, though like I said yesterday, I do think that’s because he’s such a well-written character lol
