Personality shapes everything about how your Miis behave on the island. This Tomodachi Life :Living Dream Personality Guide covers all 16 personality types, how to set them using the slider system, what each type actually does, and whether personalities affect romance.

How Personality Works in Tomodachi Life : Living Dream?

Every Mii in Tomodachi Life : Living Dream has a personality determined by four adjustable stats. When creating or editing a Mii, you will see a screen with five sliders:

  • Movement (Slow to Quick)
  • Speech (Polite to Honest/Direct)
  • Energy (Flat to Varied/Intense)
  • Thinking/Attitude (Serious to Chill/Relaxed)
  • Overall

The game adds the Movement and Speech values together to get one score, and adds the Energy and Thinking values together to get a second score. These two totals determine which of the 16 Tomodachi Life : Living Dream Personality types your Mii ends up with. Each slider has eight sections with values from 0 to 7, starting from the leftmost position.

The Overall slider does not affect personality at all. It only changes how your Mii speaks and what kinds of things they say in conversation.

Do Tomodachi Life : Living Dream Personalities Affect Romance?

Any Mii can develop feelings for any other Mii regardless of personality type.

Can You Change a Mii’s Personality in Tomodachi Life : Living Dream?

Yes. Personality can be changed at any time by selecting a Mii from the island resident list and opening their personality screen. Adjust the four sliders to any combination you want, and the personality will update immediately to match the new scores. The process works exactly the same way as when you first registered the Mii.
