A headmate that sticks to themself. They may or may not be close with only a select number of system members or they may be close with most everyone in the system. However, they don’t tend to front much and don’t like interacting internally or externally in big groups. When they do front, they often like to do so alone (not co-fronting) and don’t engage externally with many people unless necessary. Just because they like to be alone, though, doesn’t mean they can’t contribute to the system or that they don’t have a lot to contribute.
Synonyms: Loner
