iNutitive vs Sensing.
Pretty much Sensing people are very much in the immediate world. They are the common man (40% of the world is xSxP, 45% are xSxJ, less than 7% are xNTx and more than 8% are xNFx ) who think first about the immediate reactions, things they can see. They are more focused on the concrete
The intuitive are more of the abstract people, they see the "invisible" things that make the way the world work the things behind the immediate and concrete. They are more theoretical focused on relationships between items, how all the subtle details can create thousands of possibilities that change what occurs in the concrete world.
Because wotmania was a fantasy website (focusing on a creative abstract world) and rafo is an offshoot of that, we are going to see a lot more of the intuitive trait even though the sensing trait is much more common in real life. If I remember last time we took this test Ns outnumber the Ss by 3 to 1.
----------------------------------------
Sensing
Sensors pay attention to both immediate data from their five senses and from their own direct experiences. They are create meaning from conscious thought, rather than trusting their subconscious, limiting their attention to facts and solid data. As necessary, they will happily dig into the fine detail of the situation.
They focus on what is immediate, practical and real, and live life as it is rather than trying to change the world.
They like logic and tend to pursue things in a clear sequence. At work, they will have a clear schedule and like to use their proven skills in tactical situations.
They may be seen as frivolous or short-sighted by Intuitors.
Intuiting
Intuitors process data more deeply than sensors and are happy to trust their subconscious and 'sixth sense', gut feel, intuition or whatever you want to call it.
They are good at spotting patterns and taking a high-level view, as opposed to digging into the detail.
They like ideas and inspiration and tend to have a focus on the future, where they will plan to change the world rather than continue to live in the imperfect present.
At work, they like to acquire new skills and working at the strategic level.
They may be seen as impractical, theoretical and lacking determination by Sensors.

INFP. It's always either this or INFJ. That said, online tests are bunk.
