A Ringmaster is a Type-Three Play Persona, combining Competitor, Director and Kinesthete. The Ringmaster loves to be in charge and get people dancing to their tune. Leading a dance-troupe, music-group or sports-team they'll be as invested in the win as any of the members.

Reflects traits of type-two personas:

One-Upper
Type-Two Persona: Competitor, Director
Favourite play activities include:
- Setting up challenges Organising competitions Leading teams in, eg, paintball
A One-Upper is a Type-Two Play Persona, combining Competitor and Director. A One-Upper likes to do better than other people, and this can often be a very powerful drive. It shouldn't be assumed that this is in general directed towards negative ends - frequently One-Uppers use this urge to motivate them to contribute in positive, altruistic ways. They can, indeed, be controlling, but are often great leaders, never happy unless their whole team is delivering successfully, and are therefore great to have around (as long as their on your side!)

Athlete
Type-Two Persona: Competitor, Kinesthete
Favourite play activities include:
- Catch Football Running Wrestling Play-fighting Swimming
An Athlete is a Type-Two Play Persona, combining Competitor and Kinesthete. An Athlete is your traditional sportsman or sportswoman, loving play as much for the opportunity to compete as to enjoy physical exercise. Often an Athlete doesn't care about the particular game at hand - they'll pick up a ball and kick it against the wall, wrestle with nearby friends, or run long distances against themselves or others. The attraction to competing and to movement is best kept in balance, so Athletes benefit from being encouraged to focus on both of these, rather than one to the expense of the other.

Choreographer
Type-Two Persona: Director, Kinesthete
Favourite play activities include:
- Choreography Setting up physical sports Leading hikes Coaching sports teams or individuals
A Choreographer is a Type-Two Play Persona, combining Director and Kinesthete. A Choreographer likes to lead others in movement - dance, sport, martial arts, etc. Their drive to provide these opportunities is driven by their love of movement - rather than, say, a desire to compete or see others do so. Choreographers make great coaches, but they must make sure they get to experience movement themselves, rather than just enabling it for others.
Combines traits of basic, type-one personas:

Competitor
Type-One Persona: Competitor
Favourite play activities include:
- Sports Gambling Play-fighting Expeditions
A Competitor is a basic, Type-One Play Persona. Motivated by an urge to do one better - often than themselves rather than other - a competitor enjoys all forms of competition. For a pure competitor, nothing is more important than winning a game or challenge - and they can get frustrated when others don't seem to be taking it seriously. A competitor is a great person to have on your side, and you can be certain they'll go the extra mile to ensure your team wins.

Director
Type-One Persona: Director
Favourite play activities include:
- Refereeing Conducting music Directing theatre Directing films Dungeon-master
A Director is a basic, single-type Play Persona. A director loves to be in charge, and are frequently natural-born leaders. While on occasion they can tip over into being controlling, a director is a great person to have around. They'll be the one who wants to organise play activities, set up friends to meet one another, and loves to be able to sit back and watch their plan come together.

Kinesthete
Type-One Persona: Kinesthete
Favourite play activities include:
- Trampolining Running Tumbling Yoga
A Kinesthete is a basic, Type-One Play Persona. A kinesthete loves to move. Never happier than when their attention is on their body, they enjoy any physical activity that gets the blood pumping. Kinesthetes may enjoy sports for the experience more than the competition - and simply want to take movement to its furthest possible extent.
