3. How do they position themselves in a group? Do they like to be the center of attention, or do they hang back at the edges of a crowd?

Saima has always been more of an observer, it’s been something that they’ve carried since they were very young. They much prefer to be along the sidelines because drawing too much attention to themselves may cause them to want to disappear or suddenly excuse themselves out of discomfort. Of course, they’ve been able to handle themselves professionally for a cause they get involved with. But generally, they don’t mind being on the edge of a crowd.

Unless they are doing something musical, in that case – they don’t really mind attention since they are sharing a passion that they care for.

13. How do they greet the world — what is their typical attitude towards life? How does it differ in different circumstances, or towards different subjects? Why do they take these attitudes, and why do they change? How do these tend to be expressed?

Despite a certain wariness that comes from seeing what history has wrought on their land and the world at large, Saima still does have a certain kind of curiosity in the way they approach the world. This comes from originally not being all that associated with this realm and so they are still fascinated with the inevitable changes. 

Although they’ve become a little more familiar with what the world requires in using a physical form to navigate it, they still have a detached perspective that allows them to just be willing to listen to the experiences of those who have been a lot more..enmeshed with all the happenings.

Saima’s general focus is finding the mysterious and mythic in modern life these days. Since they take a lot of inspiration and energy from such things. So they do have a passion for finding such aspects of life when they can.  

14. What do they care deeply about? What kind of loyalties, commitments, moral codes, life philosophies, passions, callings, or spirituality and faith do they have? How do these tend to be expressed?

They care primarily about the land and people of Estonia – since it is place where the mythos of their origin has called them to look after. And specifically, the way that myths from way back can continue to influence the lives of those around them. It’s been their calling that to be a part of this realm, they will bring a touch of magic to their surroundings in subtle ways. If that means inspiring those in the midst of a fight, so be it – if it means volunteering and giving off that vibe of being from beyond this world a little bit, so be it. They are determined to help and be a useful presence for as long as they can. 

21. What kind of relationships do they tend to intentionally seek out versus actually cultivate? What kind of social contact do they prefer, and why?

Saima rarely intentionally seeks out relationships. Although, they do tend to like finding people and beings that they can learn from – that they can observe how they play a role around here. So they have been known to fit themselves into situations in order to learn about how they can help the people around them and what role that requires them to play. 

In terms of social contact, they do like making friends although – it is a complicated process because they are not certain to tell the real truth about their existence. So it’s playing the role of someone who is more familiar with that life than they really are. It’s still a question that has been nagging at them, since it’s getting harder for them to want to hide that part of themselves. 

Over time they manage to cultivate relationships with those who have also been around for a long time albeit for different reasons. And they’ve honestly learned about how to best fit into that environment from being around such entities.
