OUGHHHJ PREPARE FOR A LONG POST MY FRIEND!!
1. Hosts in the system/frequent fronters?
Our main fronting host is me, Ethan (he/they/it/bat/wing/fang, 16). I usually have a co-host with me called Dove (she/her/it/they/aer/ether, ageless). She is a guardian angel, of sorts, keeps me in check. Other fronting hosts are Zach (he/him, 17) and Ilya (he/him, 21). Me and Dove are the most frequent fronters, but we do sometimes have other co-fronters that we don't realise are there until they leave
Yes! We have so, so many. We have anchors, which are what the internet calls hosts. We have experiencers and holders (alters who front to experience certain things vs alters who hold the experiences of certain things). Then we have some roles we made up ourselves! Like Bartender, who takes care of others when they are drunk or is able to handle alcohol both bodily and physically. We have Lurkers, who hang around fronting as a sort of safety system against bad things happening to the system, as they are able to alert other alters without much issue. And another example is Sleeper Agents! They are our alters who keep track of our sleep schedule and front when we need to sleep
Unfortunately, yes. Even with me (Ethan) fronting all the time, we experience heavy amnesia. Sometimes it is the gatekeepers doing their job, sometimes it's just general forgetfulness. Amnesia barriers between alters aren't that high, but can be quite uncomfortable for first-time fronters or rare-fronters
4. Short or long experiences with fronting?
I would say it can vary quite a lot. As Ethan, I often find my memories are whisked off by co-fronters or Dove sometimes, but that's because our life is really stressful, and I'm a persecutor & fear response alter, so it is kind of warranted they keep memories from me 😓. Other alters can experience the memories alongside me or without me as well, but I often don't get to see those memories if they do
Wow this is a doozy. We have 105 different little critters in here, including me, so it's a lot. Uh, my own family consists of two dads, a brother and two sisters. My dads and brother are sourced in Harry Potter, Bee is literally just a bee and my little sister is an introject of our younger self/our childhood teddy bear! My brother has a boyfriend whom I love to tease incredibly. There are various couples around, and we even have a system friendship group all sourced from the same town! They don't remember the name, so we just call them "Small Townies". Zach's part of that group.
(We have different labels for what you called different parts of the system, so I hope they all translated properly. Ethan out!!)
