Archetypes

Since I mentioned Jungian archetypes in the last post, I figured I'd look for quizzes about them. Oh, and read up on them a bit, but that wasn't as much fun. Strangely, most of these quizzes seem to have little or no connection to Jung... I am an absurd hero, a wise old sage, and a ninja.




You scored as Absurd Hero. Life is absurd, but that is no reason to become
a depressive emo. You are a regular Camus style Sisyphus, finding happiness
through pointless and repetitive labour and laughing at the general insanity of
the world. Unlike the vast majority of abstract philosophical archetypes you
actually like people.

You scored as Wise Old Sage. Wise and eccentric, you may
not participate in the actual quest, but you delicately assist
the hero, never revealing what he wants but giving him the
means to uncover what he needs on his own and thereby
strengthening him. You are the ideal teacher and close to
father-figure.

You scored as Ninja. You're a Ninja, and that
means you're a badass. You like to strike under
the cover of darkness, using stealthy methods to
achieve your goals. Watch those alarms.
