The archetype stuff is really interesting, as is the notion of turning an aura on or off at will… I have some concept of that already, as back before the days of Covid I used to go to a LOT of conferences, symposiums, trade shows, etc… and had something I called “sales mode” or “networking mode”, where I’d become very sociable and engaging to the point where people would wait to speak with me, or would follow me down the hall to catch up with me. Now I only use it on important phone calls as my life has changed a bit (no real conferences for nearly 2 years, and the ones I have attended have been virtual).
That suits me fine, as while I enjoy the conferences I almost always got sick after them, and was exhausted to the point of wanting to stay in bed for a day or 2 after I got home. No talking to anyone… just drained.
I was supposed to give a presentation at a health conference with 5k+ attendees in early 2020 and had asked about Daredevil or TrueSocial to help mitigate the exhausting effects of being “on”, but thankfully Covid intervened and now I’m no longer involved with that conference so… problem solved. haha
