gender/sys terms hoard

I made some alter flags ! They are pretty specific to our system so if you don't feel the description or flag represents you, no worries ! No need to use them.

*I am also in no way saying the way I described each role is the only way that role can behave, again, this is mostly specific to our system.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

GATEKEEPER*: The teal represents morality and rationality, the white and grey represents control and composure and neutrality, the green represents harmony and balance

*Gatekeeper: an alter in a CDD system who's role is to control access to someone(s) or something(s), and/or control what information is or is not accessible.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

CARETAKER*: The orange represents safety and warm nature, and the pink represents sweetness and a delicate nature, the yellow represents joy and friendliness.

*Caretaker: an alter who takes care of other alters (typically littles), or the system as a whole

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

ANP*: The white and grey representing what the outside world sees, as the person lives as a "normal" person, with the dark grey being the thick barrier that separates the seemingly normal life they live, and the deep complexities of DID and alters hidden beneath, being the yellow

*ANP: Apparently Normal Part. Apparently normal parts typically hold less traumatic memories, and are usually responsible for daily activities -- such as hosts.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

EP*: This is similar to the ANP flag, but reversed. The light blue reflects a calm inner self, with the dark grey being barriers, and the orange and reds representing the emotion that the EP is expressing or holding outwardly. This flag is more geared towards how our system works, not all EPs are like this

*EP: Emotional Part. Emotional parts are alters more based in dissociation, trauma holding, expression of trauma, and/or expression of emotion regarding said trauma

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

ISH*: The black and white/grey represent the sometimes emotionless or neutral nature of an ISH, as well as the mysterious nature they sometimes can have. The green represents growth, hope, and helpfulness of an ISH, the pink line represents nurture. The green is beneath the grey/white to represent the often hidden nature of an ISH and their role

*ISH: Inner Self Helper. An alter that typically has a deep understanding of the system, the other alters, their experiences/memories, and the general inner-workings of the system. Sometimes seen as a guiding hand, or a mediator to complex situations.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

HOST*: The brown represents stability, as it reflects the soil of the earth. The blue represents trust, which is often given most to the host of a system. The black represents authority, signifying the authority a host often has over daily tasks and the of life

*Host: the alter that is fronting a majority of the time, and typically is responsible for daily activities such as hygiene, socialising, finances, work, school, etc.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

MEMORY/TRAUMA HOLDER*: I used the colours for PTSD awareness, and I have the colours broken up, as holding on to these traumatic memories can often be a back and forth, roller coaster of emotions

*Memory/Trauma holder: an alter responsible for holding onto traumatic memories, experiences, or feelings. This can be a single memory, or years worth of memories. Some alters are responsible for holding onto positive memories as a mood booster, however, this flag is primarily to represent trauma holders.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

LITTLE*: I mixed alternating colours of baby pinks and baby blues. This one isn't all that deep, I just tried to represent colours associated with children.

*Little: an alter who is childlike in appearance or mannerism. Some littles hold on to memories of being a child, or possible trauma that occurred at their age. Some littles are not capable of regular speech and unaware of their surroundings, whereas some have the same mental capacity and knowledge as their body's age.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

PERSECUTOR*: The black and red represent the anger and hostility persecutors sometimes display, as well as the pain they might inflict on other system members. The line striking through represents the hidden meaning behind their role. The colours represent the desire to help or protect, although the way in which they are helping might be through mimicking abusers. This flag is very specific to our own system, and I am in no way saying this is how all or even most persecutors are.

*Persecutor: an alter who intentionally causes harm to the system, or alters in the system. This can often be done by self-sabotaging, expressing anger, or interalising trauma/abuse. Please note, not all persecutors are "dangerous". Persecutors serve a role just as every other alter does.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

INTROJECT*: The ivory in the centre represents unification, and I chose diverse colours for the outside to represent multiple sources and introject could draw from

*Introject: an alter who represents something outside of themselves; this can be a person the system knows, a pet, a character in a TV show, a celebrity, or anything that has meaning to the system. Introjects can also have multiple sources from which they are drawing from. Introjects might be very similar, or very different to the source they are drawing from -- it's simply the mind's interpretation of the source.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

PROTECTOR*: The blue represents protection, and the red represents the hostility and sterness a protector can use to protect their system. I overall tried to use medical like colours, as I see protectors as healers and safety nets in the same way medical professionals are

*Protector: an alter who functions as an internal or external safeguard for the system. They can sometimes take on aggressive behaviours in order to defend the system from abuse. They can also be caring and nurturing to other alters in the system.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

AGGRESSIVE PROTECTOR*: Similar to the protector flag, but I used colours closer to red/the colour of blood

*Aggressive Protector: an alter who specifically defends the system from abuse or threats via aggression and sternness.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOM HOLDER*: The flag is split apart and the colours are separated to represent a disjointed feeling that might come along with symptom holders, depending on what symptoms they are holding. This flag is mainly to represent negative symptoms. The black and grey represents the fear that can commonly accompany this role, the ivory represents balance that the symptom holder can provide for the system, and the purple represents a more empowering feeling. This flag is pretty specific to our system, as this flag and the feeling it gives is how our symptom holders feel

*Symptom Holder: an alter who more strongly holds symptoms of the system's disorders or conditions. They might express them more strongly than others in the system, or front during points pertaining to the condition/disorder. Please note, the disorder is not limited to the alter. If one alter has a disorder, all alters have the disorder; symptom holders are just more strongly attached to the disorder/condition.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

MOOD BOOSTER*: The colours gradate from grey/black, which represents a feeling of emptiness, to a bright joyful orange

*Mood Booster: an alter who's role is to temporarily alleviate negative emotions, boost system morale, lift their mood, and often serve as a coping mechanism for distressed feelings.
