Egoist
(Me first attitude)
This type of personality is basically, what it says in parentheses, me first. Not necessarily conceited and stuck up, just me centered. Not over the top selfish, but just thinking about "their" needs first, not others' need. Self-seeking, but not over the top.
Characters of mine I would place in this category: Abigail Blackburn, Nikki Taylor, Colton Flynn, Soleil Corsetti.
Egotist
(Height of conceit)
Don't get EGOTIST confused with EGOIST. Egotists are more intense than egoists, more self seeking, definitely stuck up, over the top selfish, and - in a way - rude. This type is all about them, with no room for other people in their thoughts. This can sometimes even lead to more advanced and a more intense levels of egotistic behaviors, such as egomaniacs who are basically mad. Literally... mad.
Characters of mine I would place in this category: Owen Tracy, Alex Wayne, Alister Reynolds.

Altruist
(Let me help you)
Altruists are the some of the kindest people, putting other's needs before their own. They are the type of people who are always there helping, doing whatever they can to make others comfortable. But sometimes this can lead to self negligence, not on purpose, of course. They are so concerned with needs of others that they can forget about themselves.
Characters of mine I would place in this category: Allison Beauregard, Gareth Corsetti, June Forwen, Theodore Yeshevsky.

Introvert
(Leave me alone)
Think of a turtle who hides in its shell and doesn't want to see people. That's the introvert. The introverted personality likes to be alone, or with a small selection of close people (and when I say small collection, I mean small collection). They're timid, shy, and quiet people, and personally one of my favorite personality types.
Characters of mine I would place in this category: Jemma Corday, Jagger Bachar, Elsa Altobelli.

Extrovert
(Let's do it together)
Now think of the opposite of introvert - the exact opposite - and then you have the extrovert. Extroverts are loud (and when I say loud, I only mean it in the best way - being an extrovert myself :P), exuberant, excitable, and big people lovers. They like being with others and can't be alone for too long or else they'll go through withdrawals. Very people oriented, extroverts are need socialization, it being crucial to their survival,
Characters of mine that I would place in this category: Mallory Steele, Riley Blackburn, Aggie Lennox.

Ambivert
(Neither extreme)
Neither and introvert or an extrovert, Ambiverts are a happy medium. They're not extremely outgoing, and they're not extremely closed off people either. They're a good balance to anyone.
Characters of mine I would place in this category: David Cruse, Edwin Anniger, Jadon Ross Ives, Samantha Reynolds.

Misanthrope
(People are no darn good)
Misanthropes believe that people are stupid and "no darn good!" Everything people do is not good enough, complain worthy, and far less better than anything they could do. Whatever someone else can do, they can do better.
Characters of mine I would place in this group: Alister Reynolds (again)

Misogynist
(Women are no darn good)
Women haters, women dislikers, women scorners, annoyed by women... Shall I go on?
Characters of mine I would place in this group: Alex Wayne (if I had to place a character here, it would be him. He doesn't hate women, he just thinks they're quite annoying. Pft... Shows what he knows.)

Misogamist
("Marriage is an institution--and who wants to live in an institution?)
Free spirit is the word for this personality type. They don't want to be tied down by obligations or priorities. They prefer short term things, such as in the the case of relationships.

Ascetic
(Self-denial, lonely contemplation)
I see this type as either "woe-is-me", or the deep thinker and philosopher who contemplates life very deeply. Self denial and living alone is the story of their life. I wouldn't call them hermits... Well, yes I would. They're a bit like introverts, except lonelier.
Characters of mine I would place in the category: Elsa Altobelli, Kaliana
So that's my list. What do you think? Where do your characters fall in these categories?
Thanks for reading!
