A suffix referring to how or why a specific alter formed, view themself as having formed, and/or are viewed by others in-system, in their system. For example 'Stressformed', would refer to an alter that formed because another alter(s) or the (sub)system as a whole was under stress.
They can also have to do with the alter's feeling about why they exist. For example, an Introject who died in source may consider themself to have been reborn into the system, and as such consider themself 'rebirthformed' ,or similar.

We know that some systems use the term split to refer to any time an alter formed in the system. However we use to specifically refer to new alters that split from already know alters in the system, this often will result in something of the original alter being taken to the new one. I will be using split how we(my system) typically use it, in this post. Example 'griefsplitformed'(shorted to griefsplit) would be an alter that split because of, to deal with, and/or to hold, another alter's grief.
This would refer to an alter that formed as they are now do to the fusion of alters. For an example 'fearfuseformed'(shorted to fearfused) would be an alter that formed by fusion because of fear.
An alter the come out of dormancy, and they leaving dormancy is seen as formation for any reason. For example 'ragewakeformed'(shorted to ragewaked) would be an alter that come of dormancy because rage, in a way that is viewed as formation.
An alter the formed from a NPC. For example traumanowPCformed(shorted to traumanowPC), would be a NPC that became an alter because, someone in the system/the system went through a new traumatic event or was reminded of past traumas.
All of these suffixes can also be used in combination with role term, in reference to alter that formed for a specific role regardless if they still are that role or not. For example protectorformed is an alter that was originally formed to be a protector, they may or may not still be one.
This was with complex dissociative disorder systems who don't like using "-genic" to describe individual alters(cough cough us) in mind
[no alt term]
Companion is a system role describing a headmate that like the name suggests, accompanies system members, adventurers, and other people who may be interested in their exploration of many different places such as; parts of the system's innerworld, other system's innerworlds, their personal source, and more.
This term can be used by any system of any kind, but is made specifically for Cosmtra Systems!

[obsessive pseudohost]
Obsessive Pseudo-host refers to a headmate who becomes host-like for any reason relating to their obsessions and that they may push others out of front for control and that they may become front sticky or front stuck because of it.
This obsessiveness can stem from disorders such as OCD (Obsessive Complusive Disorder), OCPD (Obsessive Complusive Personality Disorder), and OLD (Obessive Love Disorder), and anything else that can cause obsessions.
Anybody can use this term, although it was made with the above disorders in mind.

Third set of skills! A little smaller. Perhaps we have drawn every possible skill ever. Prove me wrong.
