- Melodrama - you need to be the center of attention.
- Volatility - you're subject to mood swings.

- Habitual Distrust - you focus on the negatives.
- Aloofness - you're disengaged and disconnected.
- Mischievousness - you believe that rules are made to be broken.
- Eccentricity - you try to be different just for the sake of it.
- Passive Resistance - what you say is not what you really believe.
