It seems like every ENTJ in fiction is a villain, and they're usually male. I think the idea of a female ENTJ protagonist (or at least a good supporting character) is kickass, but I can't think of any! Anyone know of any?

Thanks! :)

What about... I forget her name, but House's boss, and, if I'm not mistaken, love interest, on House. She strikes me as ENTJ.

Lara Croft strikes me as ENTJ.

I don't know about the Angelina Jolie Tomb Raider, which is basically a silly hollywood action clone but lol boobs and england, doesn't count to me.


She's rich and multi talented; she drills gymnastics (not an easy endeavor) in her giant gym in her giant house for health, shoots guns for a laugh, has proper classical instruments laying around her house and she has the perseverance and intelligence to plan crazy flights across the world on her own to go dig up jade dragons and whatnot, which is pretty awesome and pretty nerdy if you think about it.
Not many women would be into the whole shooting wolves in order to find ancient relics all by yourself malarky, I can imagine an ENTJ doing that though lol.

She actually looks like a couple of ENTJ women that I can think of and the voice actors in the early computer games even sounds a lot like them which is funny.

I am being 100% serious:


Dominant Te (expresses matter-of-fact opinions without the slightest bit of hesitation. "My God you've gotten fat...")
Auxiliary Ni/Tertiary Se ("I never look back darling, it distracts from the now")
Inferior Fi (hates emotional outbursts and resorts to Te/Se to handle them. "What are you talking about? You are Elastagirl! My God! PULL YOURSELF TOGETHER!" [whacks her over the head repeatedly with a newspaper])

Hates having to do anything that she deems as being below her competence (refuses to do Bob's patch job, insists on making a new suit for him and suits for his entire family), has a reservoir of knowledge/wisdom which she continually pulls from to explain whatever is going on ("Men of Robert's age are often unstable, prone to weakness..."), gets irritated with people when they let their emotions/sentiments get the better of them rather than taking action and doing something about it.

Yes, in case you were wondering, I've spent way too much time thinking about this.

Also, Katherine Hepburn was pretty clearly an ENTJ, and she's stated that she spent most of her time as an actress playing herself. With that in mind, I would say that her character from A Philadelphia Story is an ENTJ. She is far from perfect, but not a villain either.

Thinking maybe Imperator Furiosa from Mad Max: Fury Road?

Kuvira from Avatar: The Legend of Korra is often typed as an ENTJ and while she is certainly the main villain in the last Book, she started out as an ally in Book 3. Though after looking at her character in depth, I have some serious doubts about that typing.

Nothing else comes to mind right now, but I will mull it over.

Not one mention of Olivier Mira Armstrong (FMA)? D:
She's a textbook ENTJ.

Nami (One Piece) could be ENTJ, but she's less stereotypical ENTJ than Olivier, but its still a very real possibility.

The real challenge is finding a ENTJ whos female, an ideal hero, and not an antihero (I would've also said Roy Mustang for an ENTJ hero, but the OP said female only).
