Solution
Melancholic humor
Explanation:
Hippocrates' theory of personality defines four sorts of humour, each correlating to a different temperament.

Melancholic persons are analytical, detail-oriented, and creative, yet may experience mood swings and pessimism. This form of humour is connected with excessive black bile.
