Inspired by: the Fool (tarot), the Innocent (Jung), Bards, Druids, and Clerics.
Genuinely trusting and overly naive, the adolescent is exuberant and enthusiastic - often to their own detriment. While not always chronologically young, they possess a childlike wonder that often has them trying to see the best in everyone around them while struggling to assume malice. When they are hurt, whether through betrayal or being lied to, they struggle to understand why someone would do so and whether they deserved it or not.
Often, the adolescent comes from some sort of sheltered or enclosed environment, free of worldly trouble and the darkness others may have experienced. Whether this is a distant realm, an isolationist culture, or a religious order that lives off the grid is entirely up to you.
