Only Aions that are Tier 2 or above have any way of seeing what sect people are. Regular citizens have no way at all of knowing, besides clocking them on account of very strange appearances (a fairly high bar) or their suspicious lack of knowledge about basic Horosian customs. No player character currently have the ability to perceive whether or not someone is an Aion at a glance, but that will change at the start of June when characters from the first app round will be able to apply to rank up to Tier 2 attunements.

At any rate, if he doesn't make a show of being an Aion he will be able to help without much trouble, and if he does let the citizens know what he is, about half of them will be willing to accept his help. Others will behave as if they are afraid they might catch something from him, while the worst are some that are just downright cynical and hateful towards the concept of Aions. Venerans definitely have mixed opinions on Aions and some are quite fearful. Others, however, are extremely tired from this and want any help they can get.
