Archetypes are tendencies we have; they are old, old ways of being that humans live out... A great description of them is at the ARAS website

But for us makers, us Waywards, some archetypes  hold more influence. You may recognize parts of your self in these few descriptions of the different ways of being, and being Rustic:

The Hunter: You are active, moving, dynamic seeking the unknown…You have a short intense attention span; you want results. You enjoy the search and the discovery…You need the chance of utter failure to be a success…You can search the local woods for new materials to add to your storehouse… Odd shapes, supple branches, more driftwood, mosses… You remember where things are and how to get there; you might make a map. You like to create, extend and defend

The Magician: You study the sticks and hold the sticks and decide what sticks are right for being special. You reveal and release the power in sticks by choosing, placing, sanding, whittling, coloring and giving the sticks to others. You might tell about secret places and ways. You are compelled to make things special. You understand the unseen and unspoken around you. You see how sticks can become part of something else… You have a sense of patience and a sense of experimentation. You have a broad view. You know that things never stay the same

The Bodger: You use the tools in cooperation with the trees… so that both the tree and the maker can be recognized. You saw, drill, whittle, sand, glue, peg… You come from the line of Hephestus… the inventor, the craftsman… who was kicked off Olympus and kept trying to invent ways back… You know ways of protecting and providing comfort. You build chairs, tables, tools… and shelters, huts, lean-tos

The Muse: You find the trees to fit the air… You make music with trees. You make dance with branches; you make sculpture and shadows… Your work is beautifully insubstantial. You have come from Mnemosyne… the source of deep memory, so time, slow time is a part of your work. You use the musky smells of the forest in your work
