The Conceit

If your true sign is Ara, then you possess the unique combination of qualities held by all Rust Signs, Asthesta Dreamers, and Heart-bound.

Sign Class: Rust

Adventure motivates Rust Signs more than anything else. They crave new experiences, the wilder and farther-from-home, the better. They are confident and energetic, ready to face the unknown. This dynamism makes them great leaders, but it can also make them foolhardy. Often, they don't posses the level of caution they should for someone so willing to jump into new things. Their willingness to trust can get them into trouble, but they are also incredibly resilient. Their ability to bounce back from trauma and injury leaves them as the toughest sign class on the spectrum. Rust Signs make great friends and traveling companions, but they also can be selfish and quick to anger. If what they deem to be an acceptable level of "excitement" isn't happening around them, they have a tendency to try to stir some up. They love the drama. They have incredibly high expectations for themselves and for romantic partners. If someone doesn't live up to these, they may deem them not worth their time. If they aren't careful, Rust Signs can end up in a cycle of excitement, followed by crushed expectations, followed by a quick recovery and new flush of excitement.

Lunar Sway: Asthesta

"Asthesta Dreamers are marked by an unrelenting love of adventure. Their personalities are very cheerful and people-oriented. They exist solely in the present, and don't tend to put a lot of effort into the past or future. All they have garenteed is now, and they are definitely the Dreamers to take advantage of that. When interacting with others, they tend to be very friendly and optimistic, and for those of the Blood Moon, tend to be very good with relationships. When making descisions, they will choose the decision that sounds like the most exciting, whether that's good or not. This makes them slightly unreliable, but given their weak will and love of appeasing others, they will certainly go along with whatever the loudest group member wants to do. They have trouble sticking to the plan, unfortunately, and they have a level of idealism that some other Dreamers would call embarrassing. Given their overall want to keep the group together and happy, they are very likely to be the mediators of the group. Despite their positive traits, Asthesta Dreamers tend to be rather egotistical and self-absorbed at times, so they are very likely to fight a set of rules if it gets passed down. They are very likely to be the kind of person who's heart is in the right place, but can't help themself to a little snark now and then. But, if they get into their head, it's possible that you won't see them for a week."

Aspect: Heart

Those bound to the aspect of Heart are very concerned with their favorite subject: themselves. It wouldn't be a stretch to call them 'self-obsessed', but not necessarily in a negative way. They simply want to understand the one thing we all are stuck with for our entire lives, i.e. our own minds. Forging an identity is extremely important to the Heart-bound, and every decision and action goes toward building a coherent narrative of their own story. That isn't to say Heart-bound don't care deeply for their friends and allies; they just have a tendency to assume that everyone is as concerned with identity as they are. They are excellent at putting on and taking off masks as the situation calls for them. At their best, they are competent, imaginative, and steady. At their worst they can be overbearing, inflexible, and cold.
