FAUN - Typology system by cindercury
heyyyy so i made my own typology system purely for fun and i felt like sharing it online in case anyone else likes it, its pretty simple!
it works similar to big 5 (sloan) in a way, you have four letter slots each with two-four options. you choose the one you relate to more and once youre done add numbers to define how strongly they manifest in you.
1st: fluidity vs rigidity (F/R)
fluidity, or F, manifests in fluid opinions and ideals that seem to change often and lack a solid ground. people typed with F also tend to often lack confidence in their beliefs.
rigidity, or R, manifests in solid opinions and ideals that rarely or never change. people typed with R are usually very confident in their opinions and beliefs and do not change them under any pressure, they tend to be stubborn but also grounded.
2nd: ascent vs decadence (A/D)
(also known as virtue vs sin | V/S)
ascent (/virtue), or A (/V), manifests in a tendency to subconsciously uplift others very easily through any actions. they prioritize the betterment of their surroundings with the intent of making other people more comfortable and happy. virtue is the conscious equivalent of ascent, if one changes their actions out of the intent of ascent, they count as virtue.
decadence (/sin), or D (/S), manifests in a tendency to subconsciously bring others down with them when they feel bad. Ds tend to be emotionally unavailable or unstable, usually being destructive or unpleasant in social scenarios. sin is the conscious equivalent of decadence, manifesting in a conscious desire for causing damage to others and wreaking havoc, usually for selfish reasons. however unfortunately i must say i doubt most people who at their core are sin are self aware enough to type themselves as such. try to refrain from assigning sin to anyone when vibetyping them to their face as it is in my opinion the most destructive out of all the types, so calling someone sin would generally in context be considered an insult on their character. i do not believe sin are inherently awful people however i believe those who consider sin/decadence to be their chord (read below) are generally very dangerous and toxic.
3rd: utilitarian vs indifferent (U/I)
utilitarian, or U, manifests in prioritizing to change ones behavior when interacting with others specifically out of the intent to comfort them or please them. this can be due to a desire for being adored or viewed as a good person, and is not related to the opinions a person actually has. Us can be F as well as R, for an example F maybe meaning their change of opinions is genuine while R could mean their change of opinions is merely a mask to seem better in the eyes of others.
indifferent, or I, manifests in a prioritizing to stay factual or in control of a situation or scenario. I tends to lack care for what other people think or feel because of their opinions and keep their eyes on factuality. they prefer objectivity over subjectivity and tend to prefer leader roles out of a desire to prevent subjectivity and emotion-based arguments ruining a perfect environment. F indifferents could be people who change their opinions frequently whenever new facts are presented to them and prioritize staying up to date, while R indifferents may make their opinions once based on what they saw and tend not to care for the subject further.
4th: non-indulgent vs materialistic (N/M)
non-indulgent, or N, manifests in being easy to satisfy or please with just little, and a lack of desire for an overflow of material pleasures, intimate connections, obsessions, etc. these people tend to for example latch onto only one or two people specifically, or only a few interests.
materialistic, or M, manifests in a desire for an overflow of materialistic pleasures. they tend to be hard to please and are satisfied by owning a lot of items, obsessing over a lot of media, etc. they are sometimes escapists, searching for the pleasure they cannot find elsewhere in gifts and trinketries. materialistic can also be replaced with the term maximalist.
N/M have "true negative" types as well: temperance (T) and gluttony (G)
they are essentially the same as their normal types, except to a maximal extent. temperance are satisfied with absolutely nothing; they do not require a single person, object, obsession, etc to be satisfied. gluttony are unable to be satisfied no matter how much they indulge in material pleasures. they cannot be satiated by any means and keep searching for ways to even slightly get close to satisfaction.
summing it up: (CHOOSE ONE PER SLOT)
1st: F | R
2nd: A/V | D/S
3rd: U | I
4th: N/T | M/G
for example my flute: FDUG
now that you have your flute, lets move on to notes!
notes
once you have your typing, you will add four letters at the end, determining the hierarchy of your types. for example XXXX4231 would imply you relate most to your fourth type, then your second type, then your third, and you relate the least to your first type. the position of your number determines that types position in the hierarchy.
the type that is first in your hierarchy is called your chord. chords are essentially the equivalent of enneagram subtypes. examples are F1, V1, G1, etc.
and thats all!!!!
closing
lastly i want to make it clear that there are NO inherent contradictions or correlations between the types or between the FAUN system and other typology systems. you can come up with your own possible correlations through deduction but they are not rule and please DO NOT shove them down anybodys throat! those are your opinions, not everybody shares them. as the creator of this system i guarantee you i certainly wont. if you have any questions you can ask them by tapping my profile and clicking the button below my bio.
i have come up with this system on my own and you can check out my carrd to see the ONLY platforms i am on. if you see me anywhere not mentioned on my carrd please know they are an impersonator.
i hope you enjoy this system despite its flaws and my grammar / spelling mistakes, i wrote this in a hurry because i wanted to get the system out there as fast as possible.
i will also be working on sonas for each of the 12 chords, so stay tuned for that! i procrastinate a lot so dont expect too much, it might genuinely take months.
GOODBYE LOVES ♡
