Aura Farming: The act of dominantly exerting one'
s persona, charisma, and demeanor as a noticable social pressure through intentional actions supportive of Aura Farmer's desired demeanor/persona.
Origin: The term likely originates from both Roblox and the Dragon
Ball franchise. Auras in Roblox have become a hugely popularized
avatar cosmetic over the years that resemble the colorful glowing aura of Dragon
Ball characters charging Ki or emitting their power. Cosmetic auras are visually appealing and are closely associated with supernatural strength. Therefore it's sought after in Roblox games. The type of Roblox games that have obtainable cosmetic auras typically encourage competition between players by displaying and ranking a user
avatar's strength through a medium such as power levels. Due to the popularity and nature of
video game cosmetics, auras are typically difficult to obtain so you have to
farm for an aura to obtain one. Hence, the likely origination of "aura farming."
Person

Person 2: "You
don't get it do you? He's clearly aura farming. We're merely just lesser beings beneath his oh so mighty presence. Show some
respect."
