Darian Caine
motivation

Behind Caine's rather jovial, open, enthusiastic demeanor (as described on the previous page), there is a very different side to her - deeper, more serious, and more emotionally intense, as described below. Her optimism and idealism are tempered and balanced by a certain skepticism and a sense of the darker side of life and of people.

Quiet, deep, emotionally complex and intensely private, she is not a person who is easy to get to know and understand. Darian Caine is extremely sensitive but disinclined to show it, and she only allows a special few into her inner world. Like a wary animal, she is cautious and mistrustful of those she does not know until "he sniffs them out". She is highly instinctive and intuitive. Darian Caine usually has a strong, immediate gut reaction to people, even though she may be unable to clearly articulate why she feels the way she does. Her feelings and perceptions go deeper than words.

Darian Caine also has a powerful need for deep emotional relationships and she forms very intense love bonds and attachments. She is possessive and often jealous of anyone or anything that she perceives as a threat to her relationship with someone she loves. When Darian Caine commits herself to someone or something, she is wholeheartedly devoted and expects complete loyalty in return. Darian merges with or "marries" the person she loves at a very deep level and therefore separations are extremely painful for her, and often stormy and nasty. When Caine has been wounded, she is not inclined to turn the other cheek and will retaliate if at all possible. Darian will most certainly never forget the hurt and she often harbors grievances and resentment for a very long time. Forgiveness does not come easily to her.

Whatever she does, Darian does with passion and fervor, and she often goes to extremes. Caine can be hot or cold, but never lukewarm about anything. Caine can also be very narrow-minded: either she is 100% involved in something or it does not exist for her at all. Rarely is Darian Caine emotionally detached and objective. She definitely has a fanatical streak. She is also immensely strong-willed and her tenacity in pursuing her objectives often borders on obsession. She is filled with fierce pride, courage and emotional strength.

Darian Caine loves mysteries and is deeply attracted to the hidden, dark, secret side of life. Darian never takes things at face value and is always probing beneath the surface of people and situations to discover what is really going on. Darian Caine tends to be more of a cynic than an idealist.

Her career, reputation and public image are very important to Caine. Darian Caine has a strong desire to be influential or make her mark on the world. She is not satisfied with the personal sphere alone; her ambitions include making a major contribution and receiving broad recognition for her unique effort and gifts. Darian Caine may undervalue the personal or inner facet of life.

Highly competitive and easily provoked, Darian Caine needs challenges and opponents to pit herself against. Darian thrives on contest and rivalry. At times her vigorous, combative way of achieving the things she wants antagonizes other people. If Darian Caine uses force too often, others will turn against her and oppose her at every turn.

Darian has big aspirations and the desire to succeed in life in a grand way. Darian Caine tends to exaggerate, promise more than is feasible and misjudge by being overly optimistic. However, she never gives up on her hopes for the future. Caine tends to be restless and discontent with the responsibilities and limitations of life.

While Darian Caine does have a strong drive, she frequently holds herself back. One of her challenges lies in learning to endure frustration and to patiently overcome the obstacles in her life (or her own internal caution and resistance!).

However she also has a more somber side, which keeps Caine's optimism from becoming ungrounded or overblown. Darian Caine tends to seesaw between her faith, vision and high aspirations, and her caution and realism (or fear!). She cannot and does not rely on good luck or grace alone, and she accepts the need for hard work. Her skeptical or "somber" side is described below.

Realistic and practical, Darian Caine sets goals for herself that are modest enough for her to actually achieve. She is able to tackle long, difficult projects and see them through, for Caine possesses self-discipline, concentration and perseverance. Darian Caine also has a strong sense of responsibility and is very conscientious about fulfilling her obligations. Caine often does things because she feels it is expected of her.

Her deep comprehension and good powers of concentration give Darian Caine the ability to judge matters wisely and prudently. She is a keen observer and also can be a persuasive speaker. Darian likes to be in control, but needs appreciation and recognition for her efforts.
