Dissociation Giver

undefined:

A dissociation giver is a headmate who can make other headmates or the body feel dissociated. They may do this for several reasons, such as to snap someone out of an anxiety spiral before it goes too far and turn into panic, but they may also do it just for fun as well.

Unlike a dissociation manager, dissociation givers are not managing the system's dissociation, meaning they cannot ease, take away, or redistribute dissociation, nor do they necessarily keep track of the system's dissociation. Dissociation givers merely make other headmates or the body as a whole feel dissociated, and have no control over dissociation they do not initiate. They may have limited control over the intensity of the dissociation they give, but this is not required.

Dissociation givers may also be protectors, persecutors, and/or gatekeepers, but do not have to be. Dissociation givers may exist in both disordered or non-disordered systems.

History
The term was created by the Werewolf Pack on December 29, 2023, to describe one of their headmates who has this ability.
