The whimsical, oft thought to be crazy loner who is obsessed with something that people usually find to be mythical (fairies, aliens, mythology,) wears bizarre or artsy clothing, speaks in non sequitors, and tends to be kind of airy or off in their own world. Sometimes can branch off into paranoia and conspiracy theorist. Example: Luna Lovegood from Harry Potter or Dib from Invader Zim.
Well, I think we could identify hundreds of personality traits not necessarily part of the general canon interpretation of the Turtles (ivy_chan"</lj pointed out one) but since I started out talking about "models" over on Facebook I'll use one here. The Enneagram is an ancient system of personality typing that happily corresponds to many of the diagnoses in the DSM, at least at the extreme or pathological end of their expression. This is based on the Seven Deadly Sins, plus two more. So here's the break-down. One Point-- perfectionist, rigid, insists that there is a Right and a Wrong way to do everything. At pathological end of the spectrum can go into obsessive compulsive with emphasis on the compulsive part.(I know you're thinking Leo but I don't think so) Two Point-- Sees self as helping others, will mold personality to fit expectations of others. Think classic co-dependent type. Three Point-- Success driven, motivated by outside rewards. Typical "Type A personality". (Pride, I think is the sin associated with this one) Four Point-- Hopeless

Well, I've been around the block (and over hills etc, etc) with men and I can put them all pretty much in one of the four columns. However, there are those that are just evil for the sake of being evil, and none of the 4 guys are that. I've met a couple and really, couldn't get away from them fast enough. I guess you could say that's covered by Shredder, but I dunno. He was pretty mild compared to the guys I've known.
It's funny because my best friend and I talk about this all the time. I'll tell her I'm having a "very Leo-y day" and she knows exactly what sort of mood I'm in
