In our Zootopia Personality Framework, we identify 8 distinct patterns.
These are not just "personalities"; they are Survival Strategies.
Each archetype represents a different way of answering the question: "How do I survive in a world that tries to define me?"

No "Good" or "Bad" Types
Notice that none of these are inherently good or evil.
- Lionheart (Strategist) tries to protect the city but loses his way.
- Bellwether (Achiever) has valid grievances but chooses toxic methods.
- Flash (Survivor) is frustrating to Judy, but perfectly happy in his own life.
Your archetype is simply your default setting for handling stress and expectation.
