Cinna

A Fire Tiger leads with bold and magnetic. As a tiger, you'd rather be wrong loudly than safe quietly — and the fire element makes you expressive and quick to ignite — you are felt before you are understood.

The texture of Fire Tiger: lit lamp, not wildfire. Where it costs you — burns the bridge while still standing on it. That blind spot is the price of the same intensity that makes you unmistakable.
