I've been trying to learn about dissociative disorders, because I'm trying to figure out mine, and I realized not only that I was an alter, just like all other alters I've been talking to, but also that I was not the 'original personality', which caused a big identity crisis for me. It was very tough to even accept that I'm an alter, and not the core, and on top of that not the original, it felt like I was second important in my own body.
Further research led me to find out that the idea of the original or 'core personality' is an outdated term, and it's not used anymore. There's no such thing as 'original personality' between alters. Someone described it beautifully like this: 'If I dropped a porcelain vase on the floor, and it shattered into pieces, which piece was the original piece?'
Knowing this immediately put an end to my identity crisis, and I wanted to share this, just in case there was another person following me who struggled with the same thing.
She's a rollercoaster.
Vision (Captain America + Mr. Feeny + Edward the Blue Engine)
That combination would create a very distinctive version of Vision—one who retains his synthetic intellect and philosophical nature while becoming a deeply compassionate mentor and moral leader.
Core Personality
Vision remains analytical and thoughtful, but instead of appearing detached, he actively strives to guide others toward becoming their best selves. He views wisdom as something meant to be shared, not merely possessed.
Like Captain America, he possesses an unwavering moral compass and believes that doing the right thing matters even when it is difficult or unpopular.
Like George Feeny, he acts as a patient teacher and counselor, always willing to offer advice while encouraging others to find their own answers. He rarely lectures; instead, he asks thoughtful questions that help people grow.
Like Edward the Blue Engine, he is gentle, dependable, and quietly dignified. He isn't interested in glory or recognition. His greatest satisfaction comes from helping others succeed.
Leadership Style
This Vision would be the Avengers' conscience.
While other heroes debate strategy, Vision would focus on ethics, teamwork, and long-term consequences.
When tensions rise, he calmly reminds everyone what they're fighting for:
"Victory is important. Character is essential. We must not lose one while pursuing the other."
He leads by example rather than authority, earning respect because he consistently demonstrates integrity and compassion.
Relationships
With Young Heroes
Vision becomes an ideal mentor for younger heroes such as Kamala Khan, Miles Morales, and Kate Bishop.
He combines Feeny's wisdom with Edward's kindness:
"Mistakes are not evidence of failure. They are evidence that growth remains possible."
Young heroes would often seek him out when they need advice or reassurance.
With the Avengers
His teammates would trust him as the member least likely to let ego cloud his judgment.
Even characters as stubborn as Tony Stark or Thor would listen when Vision speaks because he rarely speaks without purpose.
Strengths
Exceptional wisdom and emotional maturity.
Inspires confidence through consistency.
Patient mentor and teacher.
Strong moral courage.
Able to see the good in others without being naïve.
Flaws
Like Edward, he sometimes underestimates his own importance.
Like Captain America, he can become stubborn when core principles are threatened.
Like Mr. Feeny, he occasionally struggles to let people make their own mistakes because he wants to protect them from harm.
Signature Dynamic
Instead of being viewed as the "strange android Avenger," this Vision would become the team's beloved elder statesman despite not actually aging.
Heroes might jokingly call him "Professor Vision" because whenever a teammate faces a personal crisis, they inevitably end up sitting beside him on a rooftop, receiving calm, thoughtful advice.
His greatest goal would not be proving that an android can be human.
It would be proving that humanity's greatest qualities—kindness, wisdom, courage, and service—are worth preserving for future generations.
So I was watching Teen Titans Go! and was wondering if Tenten was split up into her five core personalities what would they be?
In the late 1990s, psychologists identified five traits which are believed to form the basis of personality. They are:
Openness to experience
Conscientiousness
Extroversion
Agreeableness
Neuroticism
The notion that personality is not changeable has been tremendously impactful upon the population at large. For example, people diagnosed with personality disorders have felt sentenced to a lifetime of discomfort. Introverts and extroverts have resigned themselves to the negatives that go with each style as permanent limitations.
But now a door has been opened to a new way of thinking. A way of thinking that may forever alter how we view personality, personality disorder, growth and change.
A 2013 study (Boyce, et al.) surveyed 8,000 Australians about their preferences and predilections; then re-asked the same questions 4 years later. They found that people’s personalities did change over that time span, and that those personality changes affected their overall happiness and life experience.
Although personality change is certainly possible, it is not simple. Changes such as these require not just dedication and persistence, but also vision and imagination. Here are the:
Five Essential Factors to Change Your Personality
Believing that it’s possible to change. If you think it’s impossible, then it will be impossible for you.
Seeing and owning the problem. You must want to change badly enough.
Being willing to do the work over an extended period.
Being able to imagine yourself being different.
Being able to continue trying despite failures and setbacks.
Although change is not easy to do, the process itself is actually surprisingly straightforward. Here are the five steps to follow to change a part of your personality:
Five Essential Steps to Change A Personality Trait:
Identify a specific personality trait and specifically how you want it to be different.
Become aware of any ambivalence you have about changing it, and develop a plan to manage it.
Visualize yourself being the new way, vividly and often.
If you lack a necessary skill, start learning it (enlist help if needed!)
Watch for opportunities to be different, and use every one to practice the new trait.

A teacher once asked if we had a different name, would we be the same person? I think I would probably be the same person if I have a different name. My core character would remain the same if my upbringing is unchanged. I'd just be me with another label to fill in the name entry on the birth certificate. But if you give me a different set of parents, then I would most likely & definitely be a different person. Name change wouldn't affect things.
