The Desisted

If your true sign is Taurmin, then you possess the unique combination of qualities held by all Bronze Signs, Cogniset Dreamers, and Doom-bound.

Sign Class: Bronze

Bronze Signs have a warm and generous disposition, but you might not accuse them of it the first time you meet. They have a tendency toward being withdrawn and slow to open up with new people. This can make them come off as arrogant and cold, like they think they are too good for everyone, although the reality couldn't be further from the truth. In fact, they crave validation and companionship. They are very open-hearted, but if a Bronze Sign decides to dig their heels in, it can be like talking to a wall. More so than any of the other sign classes, Bronze Signs have a marked love of creature comforts. They crave stability and safety, and if they have the means, their homes will be full of beautiful things. Some might accuse them of being hedonistic; they would probably just claim to know what they like. As lovers they can be quite needy, wanting assurances that the affection they feel is reciprocated. Maybe because of this, they have a particular affinity for animals. Don't try to break a Bronze's Sign's routines-they'll resent you for it, even if oftentimes they are too polite to say so.

Lunar Sway: Cogniset

"Cogniset Dreamers are marked by a strong will and a short temper. They come off as callous and unemotional but feel very strongly, and will absolutely get angry for personal reasons. Cogniset Dreamers will typically be the person who takes the lead, and they are constantly looking towards the future and the past, using past experiences to create future plans. When interacting with others, they are typically practical and very honest, but they can quickly become hot-tempered, rude, and rebellious under the right circumstances. When making decisions, they will be the loudest, and most insistent that they are correct, and will typically have the planning to back it up. If they are somehow overruled, they will lash out in petty ways, but after they have had time to process, they will be a strong supporter of the idea, and do their best to see it succeed. Cogniset Dreamers love a challenge, and they are excellent agents of change. They aren't very good at hiding how they feel or things they know, and tend to cover up any insecurities with bragadio and insults. They are very extroverted, sometimes to a fault. They hold themselves to a very high standard, and will not hesitate to hold others to those standards as well. However, if you manage to get on a Cogniset Dreamer's good side, you will have made a terrifying ally."

Aspect: Doom

Those bound to the aspect of Doom are fate's chosen sufferers. It may not sound like an overly pleasant aspect to be aligned with, but it does come along with great wisdom and empathy. The Doom-bound understand that misery loves company, and they are ready and willing to provide said company. The Doom-bound won't fix you; they aren't healers. They are commiserators, aware that sometimes the only thing you can do for a person is let them know that they are not alone in their suffering. They are not the advice friend-they're the friend you go to when you need to vent about a rough day at work. They are not necessarily noble martyrs, either-the Doom-bound can become quite irate about their lot. At their best they are wise, kind, and non-judgemental. At their worst, bitter, resentful, and fatalistic.
