<p>Richard III
41% Intellectual, 41% Impetuous, and 41% Trusting</p>
<p>You are a pretty bad lot, all things considered. While the historical King Richard III was an efficient (if brutally pragmtic) monarch, Shakespeare portayed him as a power-mad tyrant who lied, cheated and murdered his way to the top before the people of England rose up in rebellion and destroyed him like the contempible worm he was. If you dare, you can find out more about your nasty counterpart here.</p>
<p>You scored low on Intellectual not for a lack of brains but because you tend to use your emotions and instincts when making difficult decisions. Perhaps you would get into less trouble if you thought through the consequences of your actions before doing anything. Emotional well-being is all well and good, but you need to balance that a bit better with rational analysis.</p>
<p>Ironically, you also scored low on Impetuous. Unfortunately, while you do think about your actions, you tend to focus on how best to get what you want rather than ask whether or not it is worth having. Perhaps it would be a good idea to review if you should even be doing what you are doing before investing so much time in planning it!</p>
<p>Finally, your Trusting score was also low. This means that while you are out there getting into trouble because you're committing to things on instinct and then planning how to accomplish them, you are doing so without the benefit of friends or authority figures to help you. If you could learn to trust other people more, you might find that you keep out of trouble -- or, at least, once getting in you may have a few more resources at hand for getting you out of the mess that you've made of things.</p>
<p>secretive, organized, clean, rarely worries, solitary, high self control, dislikes large parties, prefers organized to unpredictable, prudent, observer, tough, self reliant, very good at saving money, introverted, perfectionist, mind over heart, not controlling of others, hard working, confident, resolute, solitary, does not make friends easily, finisher, does not like to stand out, very practical, intellectual, unsympathetic at times, honest, respects authority, follows the rules, cautious</p>
<p>Macbeth
88% Intellectual, 35% Impetuous, and 58% Trusting
Oooooooo...you're a baddun, aren't you? You are vicious enough when battling enemies, but lord help anyone silly enough to get close to you! Ambitious, melancholy, perhaps not even entirely sane, you are ready to undertake any dark and dangerous task for the sake of realising your ambitions. Courageous, sensitive and brilliant you may be, but a villain you remain... Don't believe me? Read all about it here.</p>
<p>Part of the reason you are so dangerous is reflected by your high Intellectual score. You are a thinker, and a planner -- a builder of dark, elaborate plots and stratagems. You frequently act on impulse or desire, but you think things through carefully, rationalising your decisions and arriving at the most amoral conclusions with calculated logic. To listen to you, it is almost as if you are being forced to act by the very nature of the universe.</p>
<p>All this intelligence is paired with a low Impetuous score that is both your greatest strength and your greater weakness. You are reflective enough that you suffer from pangs of conscience, or at least you pause to think about the consequences of your action. You do not fly about like a loose cannon. That is what makes you so terrifying. You work through all the implications of your actions before undertaking them and then, knowing full well what you are doing, you act with ruthless logic.</p>
<p>The final piece of bad news to add to this terrifying cauldron of horrors is that you are also extraordinarily prone to Trusting other people. You listen to and place great stock in the opinions of those who are close to you, and to those who know what they are talking about -- particularly when they seem to be reinforcing what you already want or think. You have an innate respect for authority, placing high value on friendship, duty and loyalty, even though you are more than capable of rationalising away your obligations to these very things when it suits you.</p>
<p>If things are going to get better, you need to learn to listen to that small quiet voice that is always whispering in your ear when you first contemplate doing something. Instinct is not always right, but if you have reservations about something, look those reservations in the face and understand where they come from rather than trying to talk yourself out of them or -- worse -- going to other people to help you convince yourself to ignore what you know is right. You are, at heart, an essentially good person, you just have to learn that this is probably enough in life. If you find yourself spending a lot of time convincing yourself to do something, it would probably be in your own best interest not to do it...</p>

<p>Now that's more like me.</p>
<p>that's my patented personality! :mad: :)</p>
<p>your analysis is a bit different than I expected. I thought you're someone who rarely gets angry as opposed to irritable and suspicious (unless you are?). The 'reveals little about self' is true I think.</p>

<p>I rarely get angry in public, but at home, I get irritable pretty often. </p>
<p>I wonder how one goes about revealing as little about themselves while making others feel like they are very open. Hmm. :)</p>
