1An '''Extraverted''' (or extroverted[[note]]The official UsefulNotes/MyersBriggs website spells it Extravert but Webster's spells it Extrovert. For purposes of this wiki, both spellings are correct[[/note]]) character is one who tends to be right at home in a crowd of people, and generally be talkative and gregarious. They can be the LifeOfTheParty or the leader of their TrueCompanions. The fact that they're right at home in a crowd is actually one of their biggest weaknesses: they may become stressed if away from people for too long.

3The short version: an extravert gains energy by being in large groups of people, and expends it by being alone. In Myers-Briggs parlance, they are E's. They tend to be either [[FourTemperamentEnsemble sanguine or choleric]] and the RedOni.
