Functional Order: Ni/Te/Fi/Se
Dominant Function: Ni
Wednesday is something of a stereotypical INTJ trope – a loner with no interest in the past or in being anything like anyone expects her to be, who trusts her own hunches even when they are wrong (has too much faith in her intuition, insights, and singular conclusions – which leads her to accuse the wrong person of a crime), and who connects the dots to solve the mystery around the school. She sees herself as a novelist, first and foremost, and has no interest in anything else; she says that being obsessive about one thing is an asset, not a liability (even if others see it as a problem). She says writing what you know is a crutch for the imaginatively impaired. Often, Wednesday has a sense that there is a lot more going on than meets the eye, but she has not “connected the dots yet.” She does eventually realize the truth (after a couple of false leads) and piece together the entire story, without having anyone tell her what happened, but it’s a slow process of getting there.
Auxilliary Function: Te
Her approach to everything is very TJ – she’s doing things for logical reasons, she’s amassing facts and evidence to prove her case (and turning it over to the authorities for DNA samples), she doesn’t do anything she doesn’t want to do or see the need to participate if she isn’t feeling like it (since she has no interest in pleasing anyone but herself).
Tertiary Function: Fi
Her own emotions never come to the surface, and instead get buried. She instantly solves the riddle to get into the secret society, and reluctantly includes her new friends in her desire to save the school, showing her growth in her feelings.
Inferior Function: Se
Wednesday does have a lot of low sensing, in that she’s very quick to take action (climbing in and out of cars, taking risks, facing down monsters, and being willing to torture or kidnap people), but most of her focus is on her mind.
