Defensor

undefined:

A defensor is a polyrole that takes on the responsibilities of a Protector/Guardian as well as an advocate for the system. They may front in times of duress, defend the system from external threats or even act as an avenger would for the system while also being able to fully articulate the system's needs and advocate to achieve those needs or for the resources to do so as well as advocating for better conditions overall for the benefit of the system as a whole, in a peaceful manner.

History

This term was coined by the Celestial Ruminations System to describe a role that was more descriptive of what they felt a defender would be without being a protescutor as they did not feel it was an accurate description of the headmate it was conceived for.

This term was coined for both traumagenic and endogenic systems.
