Subsets to these two umbrellas include the following:
* '''Araisagenic'''/'''Imagenic''': a system that formed through escapism and speaking to folks who were not there until they became real.
* '''Archogenic''': a system that was created by an [https://pluralpedia.org/w/Artisan artisian] or crafted in a similar manner.
* '''
* '''Daemogenic''': a system that was formed through [https://wolfofantimonyoccultism.com/2018/01/23/daemonism/ daemonism]/is made of daemons.
* '''Kiagenic''': a system/headspace/layer/member/etc that formed out of chaos/pre-existing or primordial potential energy for existence, brought or manifested into existence or awareness via gentle nudging of unconscious processes. This term is also used to describe a non-intentionally created system.
* '''Maliciogenic''': a system (usually a subsystem) that was created with malicious intent. Oftentimes these are made by persecutors, however that is not always the case.
* '''O-System''': a system made up of original-characters (OCs) created by other headmates. Headmates in these systems are known as '''Omates'''.
* '''Parogenic''': a system that was created through thought-based or metaphysical means, usually deliberately.
* '''Primagenic''': a system shaped around an original universe created by other headmates through writing, art, or other creative mediums.
* '''Tulpagenic''': a system that was formed through Tulpamancy. Tulpamancy is commonly seen as a practice exclusive for Buddhists, and because of this, some claim it should only be used by Buddhists; however, historically, its use has been by non-Buddhists as well, as seen in this [https://tulpa.io/history-of-tulpas article]. This term is not under the willogenic umbrella.
===Endogenic===
Line 107 ⟶ 96:

* '''Cosmogenic''': a system that formed due to cosmos or celestial forces to which Earth is.
* '''Kiagenic''': a system that formed out of chaos/pre-existing or primordial potential energy for existence, brought or manifested into existence or awareness via gentle nudging of unconscious processes.

* '''Chaogenic''': a system with chaotic origins or so many different origins that it seems chaotic.
* '''Gendiegenic''': a system that formed due to gender (in some way, shape, or form.) This could be from gender dysphoria, from genders manifesting into headmates, etc.
* '''Inheritgenic''': when someone believes that they inherited plurality from a relative.
* '''Magiangenic''': a system that formed due to magic, either real magic of fictional magic.
* '''
* '''Voidgenic''': a system that came from a void or is unexplainable.
===Kin System===
Line 140 ⟶ 120:
A '''Mixed Origin''', '''Multigenic''', or '''Polygenic''' '''System''' is a term used to describe when a collective has multiple origins. Subsets to the multigenic umbrella include the following:
* '''Algenic''': a system that technically fits all origins available to them, but only some are big enough/important enough to the system to be identified with.
* '''Compogenic''': a term for a system member with multiple/mixed origins, but the origins are either unclear or the member does not wish to disclose them.
* '''
* '''Horizigenic''': a system that tries to collect terms to describe their origins, but their origins seem to blend together and/or wear out at some point.
* '''
* '''Mavrigenic''': a system that seems to "consume" origins, sucking them in like a blackhole.
* '''Origin-Flux''': when newer headmates have different origins than the original origin that formed the system.
* '''Pangenic''': a system that fits all origins available to them (not including closed-off spiritual/religious practices that the body is not included under.)
* '''
===Othergenic===
An '''Othergenic System''' is a system that is neither endogenic or traumagenic in nature (and is also not a combination of the two.) Subsets to the othergenic umbrella include the following:
* '''Agenic'''/'''Nihilumgenic''': a system that has no origins/do not identify with any origins.
* '''Spontaneous''' '''System'''/'''Spontagenic''': a system that seemingly appeared out of nowhere, with no definite cause.
* '''Xeno-Origin'''/'''Xenogenic''': a system that can't be contained by human understandings of plurality, and instead uses terminology relating to animals, plants, and things to describe originhood.
===Spirigenic/Metagenic===
Line 172 ⟶ 142:
Both the spirigenic and metagenic umbrella hold similar subsets, which include the following:
* '''Psychegenic''': a system that is plural/became plural due to multiple souls being in the same body.
* '''Possesive System''': when an individual consents to a spirit (or spirits) possessing them in the long-term, and thus becomes a system.
* '''Seelegenic''': when a system formed due the splitting of the core/current headmate’s soul(s); the soul being split caused each individual piece to form an individual being to hold it. A '''Seeleplex''' is a seelegenic system with at least one sidesystem that has the same soul-splitting mechanics as the main system. A similar term to seelegenic is '''Amegenic''', in which most or all of a system shares a soul, however in this case it is not due to the soul being split.
* '''Soulbond System''': a system that formed through [https://soulbonder.tumblr.com/ soulbonding].
===Unknown/Quoigenic===
Line 187 ⟶ 152:
Both the quoigenic and unknown umbrella hold similar subsets, which include the following:
* '''Cryptogenic''': a system that does not know their origins.
* '''Pertegenic''': a system that does not know their actual origin due to memory loss/alteration.
* '''

* '''Chimeragenic''': a system that formed due to [[Intersex|biological chimerism.]]
* '''
* '''Cryogenic''': a system that came out of nowhere, came from the cold, has frozen (gone dormant) before and is now thawing, and/or multiple of the above.
* '''Esogenic''': a term to describe either an origin (or mix of origins) that only the system/headmates understand, a system that can describe their origin but has no title for it yet, and/or a system that has multiple origins but does not know every type they have.
* '''Iatrogenic''': a system that formed due to being convinced they were a system and/or due to internal family systems therapy. If it is specifically related to internal family systems therapy than they may call themselves '''IFSgenic'''.
* '''Innate System''': a system that was created at birth and/or formed from traits one had since birth.
* '''Intragenic''': a system that formed through continuous mimicry of real or fictitious individuals. This could be neurogenic if its related to neurodivergence/disorders and/or traumagenic if its related to ways to cope with trauma, however it is not exclusive to these experiences.
* '''
* '''Psuedogenic''': a system that fomed due to lying about being plural until they actually became plural. The system should acknowledge what they did was wrong, but cannot deny that they are now a system. These lies may have been traumatic.
* '''Pariogenic''': a system that is made up mostly (or entirely) of walk-ins and/or soulbonds.
* '''Protogenic''': a system that has been around since birth/as long as they remember or cannot remember how they formed.

==Medical Terms==
Line 293 ⟶ 234:

===Systems Within Systems===
Line 347 ⟶ 271:
===System/Sisasystem Descriptors===
* '''-Based''': when an origin term is a modifier rather than the origin itself. For example, a traumabased system would be a system that was modified and heavily molded by trauma, but did not originate from trauma.
* '''Ähmane system''': a system where most or all headmates are agehazy or agevarying.
* '''
* '''Aquatien''': a system that is stagnant, but continues to grow.

* '''
* '''Dreagenic''': a system that is affected by (sleeping) dreams/dreaming in some way.
* '''
* '''Gateway System''': a system that functions like an earthly location, in which headmates can come and go as they please. These systems typically have entries (gateways, doorways, bridges, etc) that headmates come and go from in the headspace, however this is not always the case.
* '''Identityshifter''': a system in which a single consciousness shifts between identities, and said identities only exist distinctly when fronting, and disappear back into the shared consciousness until fronting again. They cannot have thoughts outside of the shared consciousness.
* '''Introject Heavy''': a system with a high number of introjects.
* '''Factive Heavy''': a system with a high number of factives.
* '''Fictive Heavy''': a system with a high number of fictives.
* '''Infinitumplex''': a system whose subsystems/sidesystems are hard to count/keep track of either due to constantly changing between 1,000+ members and/or due to the constant rapid growth of the system.

* '''
* '''Masked'''/'''Covert System''': a system that hides their plurality publicly.
* '''Metaregnum'''/'''Metaregna''': a loose grouping of sidesystems that is formalized, informal, and/or historical in nature. It is less of a discrete solid than a mesosystem/hemisystem/lone sidesystem, and is often formed voluntarily.
* '''Moneotien''': a system where one member fronts almost all the time, other members only fronting to act as advisors when the usual fronter is unavailable. A '''Polietien''' is the same thing, except applying to multiple headmates fronting almost all the time.
* '''Multiplex''': a system with ten+ sidesystems and one subsystem, ten+ subsystems and one side system, or ten+ sidesystems and ten+ subsystems.

* '''Paracosmic''': a system where headmates can leave and live in paracosm bubbles and can fluctuate between being a para and being a headmate.
* '''Parallel System''': a system where the headmates are mostly or all the same individual, just in different timelines/possibilities, or a term used to describe two systems existing in one body (such as two sidesystems.)
* '''Phytogenic''': a system that constantly divides up and refuses headmates or just constantly divides headmates in general.
* '''Polyplex''': a system that is made up of sidesystems and doesn’t have a main system. A '''Centre System''' is the system that is “main” in the polyplex (closest to the front, most active, largest, etc.) A '''Sideplex''' is a polyplex or group within a system that is seen as separate, larger, higher ranking, and has more communication/memory sharing, and a '''Hemiplex''' is the same thing but ranked about existing sideplexes. A '''Sparplex''' is a polyplex group within a system that is seen as less separate, lower ranking, and smaller. A '''Subplex''' is a polyplex that is larger/higher-ranking than a hemisystem.
* '''

* '''
===System Terminology===
* '''Antegenic''': a system that formed before the current system.
* '''Bloom''': a period of time where the system experiences drastic growth in the number of headmates.
* '''Duosystem''': the other body to a system shared between multiple headspaces; one system in two bodies. This could also apply to a systems soulmate.
* '''System Collapse''': a system that loses most or all of its headmates in a short period of time (this could be through fading, dormancy, walking-out, etc.)
* '''
* '''System Stagnant''': when an entire system gets quieter and it becomes difficult for anyone to take front, sort of like the entire system is dissociated.

Line 445 ⟶ 330:
===Pluran Complexity===
* '''Fluidmate''': a headmate that is fluid between being a fragment, demi-fragment, and full.
* '''Fragment''': a headmate that does not have a full sense of identity, autonomy, and/or sapience. A '''Demi-Fragment''' is a fragment that has more completion than other fragments do.
* '''

**'''Fusitive''': a headmate that is based on/represents a previous blend/blur that happened in the system.
**'''Imaginitive'''/'''Imaginiject''': an introject that is based on/represents an image (artwork, photography, etc.) '''Pictives''' are Picrew versions of this.
**'''Intrutive''': a headmate that is based on/represents intrusive thoughts/an intrusive thought.
**'''Locatroject''': a headmate that is based on/represents a location (fictional or factual.) This could be a personified version or they may be a version of the location itself.

This is not a complete list of roles, and is rather a list of common roles. For more roles, one may look through Pluralpedia's "Terms" and "[https://pluralpedia.org/w/Category:System_Roles System Roles]" categories.
* '''Archivist''': a headmate that knows a lot about the system, both in and out of the headspace. They may also store and organize information, possibly using constructs such as folders and files in the headspace.
* '''Assidumate''': a headmate that handles daily life tasks other members cannot do (homework, jobs, self-care, organization, etc.)
* '''
* '''Companion''': Those in a system who formed to keep other headmates company. They could have formed as a innerworld sibling, friend, babysitter, parent, lover, etc.
* '''Core''': Someone in a system who is the original lone-owner of the body, around before the headmates formed. Not everyone has a core, and one may have a core that has split into multiple separate individuals.
* '''Caretaker'''/'''Caregiver''': a headmate that care for other member of the system. They may care for specific groups (ie: only caring for littles.)
* '''Emotional Processor''': a headmate that manages emotions, absorbs emotions, and/or spread emotions across the system.
* '''Gatekeeper''': those in a system who controls switching/fronting, controls access of certain areas within the headspace, controls access to memories, can do multiple of these things, or does all of these things. In a gateway system, they may be in control of who is allowed in and out.
* '''Host''': headmate(s) that fronts a lot (usually daily) and is the "main face" of the system. One may have multiple hosts (and they may be known as '''Co-Hosts'''.)
* '''Persecutor''': a headmate that purposefully harms others, either those in the system or outside of the system. They typically do so due to trauma.
* '''
* '''Polyrole''': a headmate with multiple roles.
* '''
==Headspace==
Line 543 ⟶ 411:
*'''NPCs''': characters or creatures that are not headmates, but rather visualization to add more life or reality to this inner space. For example, there may be pets, animals, or characters that headmates can interact with. NPCs sometimes have the possibility of becoming headmates after a period of time.
*'''Sentients''': beings that are not headmates, but have more personality, life, and backstory than NPCs. They may be confused for headmates and fragments, however they are incapable of fronting, and do not share/hold any of the memories the rest of the system does. They usually act as family figures or friends to headmates. For example, a fictive may end up with a sentient of the romantic partner of their source, as the mind may see them as unfit or incomplete without their source's lover.
Line 552 ⟶ 416:
Some world-building/functioning headspace terminology includes the following:
* '''Alarach'''/'''Suniomin'''/'''Suni''': a stand alone layer/metalayer/cosmos that is not part of any single-unit or common-canon groups with other alarachs, though they may be grouped with layers clusters.
* '''Chronal''': a cluster of headmates/layers that consist of alternate versions of the same individuals, just in different timelines, existing as discrete seperate entities/locations. A '''Chronal Cosmos''' is a chronal applied to layers/alarachs/metalayers/layer clusters/etc. A '''Chronolayer''' refers to a chronal applied to layers or a separated innerworld. '''Polychronal''' refers to a chronal headspace (a headspace with different timelines of itself.)
* '''Excernio''': a part of a headspace that is separate for the rest. It may be hard to discern why it is separate.
* '''Exolayer''': a section of a headspace that is perceived as being not of this universe. It may be seen as an entirely different reality/realm that the subconscious has connections to. It is perceived as being unattached to the physical brain.
* '''
* '''Fronting Room''': a place in the innerworld that is dedicated to fronting. For many systems it appears as a control room of some kind, however this is not always the case.
* '''
* '''Layer''': an division of space within the headspace that is more significant than a simple area. Often times, different headmates (and sisasystems/systems) live within different layers. Layers tend to function differently from one another, however this is not a requirement.
* '''Median Layer''': a layer (metalayer, cosmos, or alarach) where all inhabitants are medians.
* '''Mediple Layer''': a layer (metalayer, cosmos, or alarach) where all inhabitants are mediple.
* '''Metalayer''': a series of worlds or otherwise separate spaces that reside within the innerworld, where travel between them is easy. These worlds/spaces are often connected physically in some way, such as by having bridges.
* '''Reality Gateway''': a gateway in a system to another reality, either an alternative version of the meatspace, an alternate version of the headspace, and/or an alternate version of a layer/section of the headspace.
Terminology for the pluran viewing/interacting of the headspace:
* '''Avisum''': a headspace that is hard to envision by the inhabitants.
* '''Corpvisum''': a headspace that is just as easy to interact with as the meatspace.
* '''
* '''Nebuvisum''': a headspace that is seen through fog. Other headmates in the system may blurry/foggy visionally.
* '''
* '''Sanavisum''': a headspace that can only be navigated through sensory-related tactics (such as echolocation)
* '''
* '''Trivisum''': a headspace that is seen in third person by headmates.
* '''
===Death===
Line 638 ⟶ 479:
Some age terms for systems include:
* '''Adult'''/'''Big''': a headmate that is an adult, typically 18+.
* '''Age Advancing''': a headmate that gets older, either following outspace time or inspace time.
* '''Age
* '''Age Forger''': when a headmate grows up mentally, but not physically. For example, a headmate that has the appearance of a three year old, but the mentality of a ten year old.
* '''Age
* '''Age Sliding''': a headmate that slides between ages. This could happen occasionally or often.
* '''Age Varying''': a blanket term for age sliders, age progressors, and age regressors.
* '''Alder''': a headmate that gets older, but does not share the body's birthday, and has a separate birthday.
* '''Claudia''': a little with the mentality of an adult. A '''Littlex''' is a claudia that is also a trauma holder to adult-themed trauma (drugs, sex, etc.)
* '''Little''': a headmate that is a child, typically under the age of 12.
* '''Lost Adult''': when a headmate grows up physically, but not mentally. For example, a headmate that has the appearance of an elderly man, but the mentality of a four year old.
* '''Systeen'''/'''Middle''': a headmate that is a teenager, typically 13-17.
* '''Växer system''': a system where headmates grow each year along with the body, regardless of whether or not they are the same age as the body.
===Culture/Religion===
Line 705 ⟶ 534:
Some terms related to fronting include the following:
* '''Autopilot''': when no one is fronting, and the body does things on its own, typically using the subconscious as a guide. For example, the body may do chores or homework.
* '''Blending'''/'''Blurring'''/'''Soup''': when two or more headmates blur together in terms of identity (and possibly innerworld bodies.) Blending is typically temporary, and happens when fronting or when co-conning. '''Crouton Fishing''' is the act of trying to pull a coherent headmate out of a blend.
* '''Calling''': when a system’s brain or front unconsciously desires fronters with specific characteristics (gender, sexuality, hyperfixation, special interests, etc.) This can be weak or overpowering, and generally cannot be consciously controlled.
* '''Co-Conning''': when two or more headmates are conscious, but not fronting.
* '''Cytien'''/'''Cyctien''': when a system’s fronting activity goes through a cycle based on new members forming/being discovered.
* '''Foggy''': when there are too many members attempting to front, but not any loss of identity/blending.
* '''Forced Fronting''': when a headmate takes control of the front against the will of the other headmates.
* '''Front Rotation''': when frequent fronters changes a lot.
* '''Front Preferences''': when the front prefers specific kind of headmates to front. It may drag members it prefers to the front and reject members it does not prefer.
* '''Front Salad''': when too many headmates are fronting and things are confusing/muddled, but none of the headmates are blurred.
* '''
* '''Frontstuck''': when a headmate is stuck in the front/stuck fronting.
* '''Front Trigger''': a trigger (positive or negative) that causes a headmate to front. A '''Peek Trigger''' is a trigger that causes one to peek out the front/peek and see whats going on the innerworld.
* '''Front Yeety''': when the front seems to reject everyone, ‘yeeting’ headmates around as it pleases.
* '''Kinegenic''': when the front changes so often that multiple headmates end up fronting in one day, not all at the same time.
* '''Maining''': a term specifically for headmates involved in a shared integration, in which they each take main control over the innerworld body they share. For example, if three individuals had a shared integration, they would take turns having 'most control' over the innerworld body, which would be maining. Those with shared integration have to main the innerworld body in order to participate in fronting in the outterworld body, meaning, in a way, they have to front twice.
* '''Switch'''/'''Switching''': the act of changing who is fronting. A '''Covert Switch''' is a switch that is hard to detect/well-hidden. '''Switch Management''' refers to how headmates manage switches/how switches occur; '''Managed Switching''' is when switching is controlled/managed, '''Reactive Switching''' is when most switches are reactive/triggered, and '''Voluntary Switching''' is when most switches are voluntary/controlled.
==Plural Terminology==
Note: this section does not include all terminology used in the plural community; just the common ones. For more terminology, explore the Pluralpedia.
* '''Amnesic Barriers''': (usually metaphorical, but sometimes literal) barriers that stop other headmates from remembering what happened when another member was fronting or remembering trauma that happened to another headmate.
* '''Bleedover'''/'''Bleedthrough'''/'''Recollection''': when emotions, memories, experiences, etc ‘leak over’ to other members of the system. For example, if one headmate is depressed, their depression might bleedover on the other headmates. '''Emotional Sharing''' is the same thing, except its specific to emotions. '''Symnesia'''/'''Memory Sharing''' is the act of sharing memories between two or more headmates.
* '''Cluster''': a group of headmates that are separate/arbitrary, but is connected to one another through similarities of some kind. This connection is usually voluntary, but it isn’t always. A '''Narrative Cluster''' is a cluster that is connected by a “plot” or “story” whom all have roles that pertain to it. They do not have to be on the same layer/area of the system to be in this cluster.
* '''Exomemories''': memories of things that happened in a past life, past experience, and/or before their time in systemhood. '''Exotrauma''' is the same thing, but specifically applying to trauma. Singlets can experience these as well if they are alterhuman.
* '''Fading''': when a headmate starts feeling less present and may eventually disappear from the system entirely. This can be traumatic and is often viewed as the death of a headmate.
* '''Fusion'''/'''Integration''': when two or more headmates combine/merge. This could be purposeful or accidental. There are multiple types of integration; '''Full Integration''' (in which the involved headmate’s identities combine into one), '''Shared Integration''' (in which the involved headmates share the same innerworld body, but have separate consciousness, only sharing pieces of each other’s thoughts/mind) and '''Final fusion''' (in which every headmate integrates into one, thus becoming a UTB system or incompletely-plural).
* '''Intratrauma''': trauma that occurred within the innerworld.
* '''Singletsona''': a personality/individual put forward by the system to appear as though they are a singet.
* '''Split''': the process of new headmates forming due to external stress/trauma, usually by taking an existing headmate and splitting them into pieces.
* '''Syscurious''': a term to describe someone who might be a system, but they are unsure. This could be because of little to no access to the headspace, or other reasons such as your fragments have not fully formed. It is also possible to be syscurious if one thinks they have a system, but they are the only one who really fronts.
