#role terms

Manager: A flag for this term. The colors were, in fact, color picked from this photo:

A headmate who either enjoys or is easily front triggered by arguments or debates related to politics, religion, philosophy, basically anything; or, one who specifically fronts to handle these situations or to have these debates/arguments.

They may enjoy purposefully bringing these topics up to spark these debates, or may just enjoy partaking in them when they come up. They may also enjoy causing drama between other people who they know are on opposing sides (by bringing up something related to the topic in the hopes that the others will fight about it).

A group of system role flags I have made! In order

Holder: Just a general holder flag for those who want to say "I am a holder" but do not want to divulge what it is they hold whether that be symptoms or emotions

Medic: This flag is for this term. Inspiration from the colors was taken from common scrub colors, the color of the emblems often being gold, heart monitors and such, and medical facilities often being white.

Nummica: This flag is for this term. We made both the term and the flag we just no longer use the sys name Villain Admin. The colors represent money, that's pretty much it lol.

A headmate who is constantly working on completing tasks while in front, whether cleaning, organizing, doing laundry, scheduling appointments, etc. or finishing books, drawing, finishing or accepting requests to make craft or art projects, relaxing, etc.

Everything feels like a task to be done, but not in a boring sort or “I have to do this ugh” kind of way; rather, they see everything as an opportunity to accomplish something and feel energized and the only way to channel that energy is frame everything as a task to be done.

They may feel that it’s impossible to not be doing a task and may end up wearing themself out by trying to do too much all at once, which is why it’s necessary for them to frame relaxing and taking breaks as tasks.

This is not necessarily a role, though it can be.

A headmate who steals memories or the emotional impact of them from another headmate. These memories are often trauma memories that heavily affect the one they are stolen from. When these memories (or the emotional impact) is stolen, the memory thief takes it on for themself, blocking the one who was previously remembering or experiencing it to suddenly not remember the memory or to feel nothing when they think of that memory. This may be permanent or temporary.

This term may be considered related to both gatekeeper and memory holder.

A headmate who purposefully seeks out attention, often but not exclusively via dramatic displays of emotion, outbursts of emotion or behavior, or excessive clinginess, including constantly messaging someone. They may do this because a headmate’s or the system’s needs are not being met, to create a commotion during abuse or an otherwise unsafe situation so that others will look and see what is happening, to force the system into social interactions, or even just to create drama and cause problems.

An attention seeker may be similar to an advocate and they may be a protector, but they may also be persecutors.
