Lord of the Rings characters commonly typed as ESFP
Merry (early)
Hobbit adventurer
Early Merry's Extraverted Sensing shows in his eagerness to jump straight into an adventure he barely understands -- stolen mushrooms, an impulsive decision to follow Frodo out of the Shire -- driven by present-moment enthusiasm rather than a plan. Introverted Feeling is the warm, unwavering loyalty to his friends underneath the mischief, the ESFP pattern of living fully in the moment while still caring intensely about the people sharing it with him.
Gimli
Gimli, son of Glóin
