I looked up Sotha Sil because I read that he was emblematic of NiTe but vincent said iirc he was either Ni dom? Discuss please. |

Did i ?  I don't remember saying that but i might very well have.
If i did then i completely missed the rather obvious fact that the whole "Clockwork City" theme is certainly not Te polr. Duh.
NiTe makes perfect sense for him. Or at least, as perfect as it can be for a fictional character. Everything is there.
The Visionary and the Mastermind. Exiled from the "world of tangible-forms" and from his people, from whom he is either "too distant or too meddlesome". Even the fatalism and the stoicism of high health Ti 6th is there. We are all trapped in the spider web of determinism.
But we are only the Prisoner if we are able to see both the chains and the door...
The fact that he, himself, doesn't see the door might even be Ne ignoring.
And he makes it very clear that his Te masterpieces are only tools...only of instrumental (and somewhat sentimental) value, and that he keep thinking about destroying them.
Even the intertype relationships with the two characters he mentions in the video only makes sense if he is NiTe btw.
His sister Almalexia (who "defies simple analysis") is an ESFP.
A (bad) dual that ultimately end up killing him.
His brother Vivec (who "know no boundaries") is an ENFP with a lot of integrated INFJ shadow.
Looks like a Kindred but is ultimately still a Mirage.
tbcd.

Oh right, it can certainly also be Ti in other absolute value slots.
Well, he began his existence as a mortal, then achieved some kind of Godhood with his brother and sister.
It's implied that they could have "ascended" even more and stayed behind for "their people". And it's also implied that he is substantially wiser than the two other ones.
He is basically the local equivalent of an Arhat, just one step behind full Buddhahood.
And since he is also a fictional character, playing an auxiliary role in the plot of a game, it's not his job to see the door. His job is to be the Wise Old Man who teach the player character that there is a door waiting to be found.
He is basically saying "i'm a Deus IN machina, not a Deus EX machina".
