## Members

> "*Everything you do right now ripples outward and affects everyone. Your posture can shine your heart or transmit anxiety. Your breath can radiate love or muddy the room in depression. Your glance can awaken joy. Your words can inspire freedom. Your every act can open hearts and minds."*

House Greenleaf are natural-born leaders, full of passion and charisma, reaching out and inspiring others to achieve and to do good in the world. With a natural confidence that begets influence, they take a great deal of pride and joy in guiding others to work together to improve themselves and their community.

> *"Don't worry when you are not recognised, but strive to be worthy of recognition."*

Drawn to people with strong personalities, House Greenleaf radiate authenticity, concern and altruism, unafraid to stand up and speak when they feel something needs to be said. They find it natural and easy to communicate with others, especially in person, be it through facts and logic or raw emotion. House Greenleaf easily see people’s motivations and seemingly disconnected events, and are able to bring these ideas together and communicate them as a common goal with an eloquence that is nothing short of mesmerizing.

> *"We should be too big to take offense, and too noble to give it."*

The interest House Greenleaf have in others is genuine, almost to a fault – when they believe in someone, they can become too involved in the other person’s problems, place too much trust in them. Luckily, this trust tends to be a self-fulfilling prophecy, as their altruism and authenticity inspire those they care about to become better themselves. But if they aren’t careful, they can overextend their optimism, sometimes pushing others further than they’re ready or willing to go.

> *"All my life I have tried to pluck a thistle and plant a flower wherever the flower would grow."*

House Greenleaf are vulnerable to another snare as well: they have a tremendous capacity for reflecting on and analyzing their own feelings, but if they get too caught up in another person’s plight, they can develop a sort of emotional hypochondria, seeing other people’s problems in themselves, trying to fix something in themselves that isn’t wrong. If they get to a point where they are held back by limitations someone else is experiencing, it can hinder their ability to see past the dilemma and be of any help at all.

> *"Whatever you are, be a good one."*

They are genuine, caring people who talk the talk and walk the walk, and nothing makes them happier than leading the charge, uniting and motivating their team with infectious enthusiasm.

House Greenleaf are passionate altruists, sometimes even to a fault, and they are unlikely to be afraid to take the slings and arrows while standing up for the people and ideas they believe in. This House wants to lead the way to a brighter future, whether it’s by leading a nation to prosperity, or leading their little league team to a hard-fought victory.

## Other Houses

House Greenleaf take genuine pleasure in getting to know other people, and have no trouble talking with people of all types and modes of thought. Even in disagreement, other perspectives are fascinating. Though as a House, they connect best with other Houses who share their principles and ideals, which are simply too idealistic for most. As such, they work best with House Avia, House Nautica, House Glacius, House Lucian and House Yaksha.

Though they get along well with everyone, Houses like House Dynami, House Gryffindor, House Crag and House Igneus are most likely to scoff at their passivity.
