User:EsotericCollective

= The Esoteric Collective = Body age of 24. Trauma and esogenic system of 10+ including facets, soulbonds, created, and some others whom We're unsure of origin. As the system is technically at 13+ members at last count, We say the former due to the fact that the facets in Aster's main median system are sometimes more "one" with Aster rather than separate.

Host
Aster is the host and core of the system.

Aster's Traumagenic Facets

Sburb Betas
The Sburb Betas are a sidesystem in the Esoteric Collective. It is made of (traumagenic) soulbonds and (endogenic) walk-ins who share a canon timeline. Their session never had a scratch, therefore this group never knew the alpha kids or trolls and their session deviated far from the comic's canon.

The traumagenic soulbonds are here to escape their own exotrauma and have bonded with the host due to their exotrauma. We can trace their formation and bonding back to specific points in the host's life, and as such we regard them as traumagenic.

The endogenic walk-ins are here simply because their friends are. They have a hard time fronting and maintaining front, so they mainly ask the host to speak for them.

Paragenic Members
The paragenic members of the Esoteric Collective came through from the host's own paracosm. The paracosm, originally named Red Paradise and renamed to Esoterica (due to the existence of the system), has existed since the host was around 10 years old. The host began to have (night) dreams regarding this place and is able to see into it in waking hours (daydreams).

The headspace is modeled after part of this paracosm; whether on accident or purpose, no one in the system including the host really knows. Current count of the paragenic members of the system say that it makes them feel more at home, which makes the experience of realizing they're in a system more comforting.

Currently, all paragenic members are also considered traumagenic due to the circumstance of their arrival.

Rili

 * Age: 20
 * Role: Emotion Holder
 * Pronouns: they/them
 * Pos Triggers: unknown
 * Dislikes: yelling, violence, people being mad at them
 * "Extra: Rili is very sensitive and will cry if you yell at them"

Traumagenic Headmates of Unknown Category
These headmates have currently unknown origins and thus we are unable to categorize them. They may still have roles within the system and may still front, however we just don't know which category they would belong in.

David Streider

 * Age: 24
 * Role: Fronter
 * Pronouns: he/him
 * Pos Triggers: punk music, skateboarding (irl or video games)
 * Dislikes: rude people, especially those rude to mute people, those who confuse him with the other Dave in the system, talking in-depth about his timeline and exomemories
 * Extra: David Streider is a very off-canon version of Dave Strider from Homestuck. This version is mute, is twins with Rose, and they never had an Sburb session at all.

-genic terms

 * Esogenic - a system origin that is very specific to its individual system users. From the word "Esoteric," esogenic means that your system origins are either:
 * A specific origin that only you and your system understand
 * A specific mix of origins that only you and your system understand
 * You can describe the origin but do not yet have a name for it
 * A specific mix where you and your system do not know every type

= Guidelines for Contact and Interaction =

Groups
Please do not interact with anyone in the system if you fall within any of the following groups.


 * Pedophiles, whether you call yourselves (NO)MAPs, NOPs, or anything along the lines of clovergender, agefluid, or any other term made to replace the term "pedophile." If you are attracted to children in any capacity, do not interact with us.
 * Pro-shippers, or those who think shipping incestuous and/or pedophilic ships is okay, even if you're doing it to cope with trauma. We understand having coping mechanisms and outlets, but these ships do direct harm to people (especially those who are young) by creating normalcy.
 * Trans-Exterminatory Radical Feminists (TERFs) and Sex Worker-Exclusionary Radical Feminists (SWERFs) should not feel welcome to interact with any one of us in the system.
 * Truscum/Transmedicalists are expressly unwelcome from interacting.
 * "Sysmeds, probably obviously, are not to interact with anyone in the system, including the host and the traumagenic headmates."

Ideals
If you follow any of these specific ideals, do not interact.


 * "Queer is a slur!" - Started by TERFs, and is the identity for a majority of the system. Collectively, we are queer.
 * "Tulpamancy is cultural appropriation!" - No it is not. This idea was, likely, started by an anti-endogenic system in order to create a divide on purpose.
