Lord of the Rings characters commonly typed as ISTJ
Théoden
King of Rohan
Théoden's Introverted Sensing is a deep well of Rohan's tradition and remembered duty, dormant under Wormtongue's influence but never gone, and once freed his Extraverted Thinking snaps back into decisive, procedure-grounded command -- mustering the Rohirrim exactly as his fathers would have. The ISTJ pattern here is restoration: order and honor aren't new ideas he adopts, they're the default he returns to.
Faramir
Captain of Gondor
