7/28/2000 - The Black Knight???
Why is it that all these online personality test always portray me as some Machiavellian schemer? Is it really that obvious?!
So I'm checking out my friend Jimbo's page had he has this link to a test that tells you your medieval personality type. Of course he gets the "Benevolent Ruler" rating, so I head over and take the test myself. What do I get? Stalwart Paladin? Intellectual Monk,? Dashing Noble? No, of course not! Instead my rating comes back as follows:
The Black Knight
"Your distinct personality, The Black Knight, might be found in most of the thriving kingdoms of the time. Your overriding goal is to win. You approach each task or situation as a contest to be won strategically and efficiently. Because you can control your feelings, it is not unusual for you to charm, as well as successfully delegate tasks and responsibilities to the more emotional types. You are often concerned with what's in it for you. You seldom involve yourself in activities where you can not foresee a reward for your investment or effort. On the positive side, you can be analytically empathic and logically persuasive. On the negative side, you may be unemotionally manipulative as well as arrogant, selfish and impulsive. Interestingly, your preference is just as applicable in today's corporate kingdoms."
Hmm... You can take the test yourself here:
