House Amare

== The Founder ==
Erasto Amare was well known ever since his own school days as a romantic and a passionate lover of women and men alike. More than a few students and professors at Cadworth fell for the Guatemalan mage’s charms. His sense of romance never diminished as he grew older; it only became stronger and more focused. He came to believe that love and passion were as vital as blood and breath, and an existence without them was a “living death” (as described in his widely beloved book of poetry: Mi Corazón, Mi Vida). It was no surprise to anyone that when he established House Amare, his romantic idealism became the heart of it.
== House Amare ==
Love, passion, and romance are the cornerstones of House Amare. The house was founded on the belief in the absolute power of love to conquer all obstacles. Members of House Amare bring that romanticism and passion to all aspects of their lives – personal relationships, career goals, even hobbies. While this intensity can make them prone to emotionality, they consider this a strength, not a weakness. Wearing one’s heart on one’s sleeve is a badge of pride in Amare.
== House Amare Crest ==
Blazon: Chape-ploye Sable and Sanguine, a lozenge Gules, a lozenge Carnation
Amare’s crest resembles curtains rising on the stage of the heart. But they know romance is more than performance; it is the highest art. The two diamonds emerging from the dark represent love and passion, joined in their eternal dance.
== Motto ==
"Love thyself as thou love all others."
House Amare’s motto is as poetic and romantic as its founder. It is his reminder to those in his colors that self-love is just as important as the passion every Amare feels for others. He taught that if one is full of doubt and feels unworthy of love, they will inevitably undermine their own romantic endeavors, and it is therefore important to take time to focus on “loving thyself”...though hopefully not to the point of narcissism.
“Eternal bound, these dancers be heart and soul, forever free” — Erasto Amare, excerpt from Mi Corazón, Mi Vida
