"Seedling," an NPC from my upcoming campaign, fits quite neatly into the Aeon Arcana. While the Aeon is a rare alternative for Judgement (notably in the Thoth Deck), it offers a unique perspective and commentary on the world that she finds herself in (Plus, Aeon just sounds cool)

She is a dryad-like being that has not seen another humanoid in her life. So when she inevitably meets the party who are exploring a strange new land, she is instantly intrigued and wants to learn about them and their world, which will lead her to wonder about her own existence and purpose.
This is exactly how the two Aeon characters operate in the Persona series, who are unfamiliar with the world or its concepts and how it applies to them. Similarly, "Seedling" will figure out how she fits in to the world, even though she comes from a completely different one.
Finally, we have Oz, a Tiefling who I hope to play in a future campaign. Oz is overall charismatic, smart and caring, but they have always followed the path set forth for them by their family and their business. They have an artistic side, but never knew how to approach it with substance.
That all changed when they met their would-be best friend - and eventual crush - Val; a winged Tiefling who would encourage them to express themselves. This leads them down a path of self-discovery and (in a way) indulgence of their passions, which causes problems as they juggle multiple...
aspects of their lives. Temperance is definitely the Arcana Oz fits with, as they will go through the journey of balancing these aspects in a healthy way that allows them to become an actualized person.
This thread. got long. But if you stuck around to read my ramblings then treat yourself to a cookie!
