Scout

undefined:

A scout is a headmate that looks around the headspace for others headmates that are lost or hidden, or new locations. They may be the only one capable of accessing restricted areas. Some may be able to fight back against internal threats too. They are more common in large systems (either in headmate count, headspace size, or both), but aren't exclusive.

Scouts often report back to archivists and overseers, and receptionists may be on hand to welcome the newly found headmates if and when they decide to make themselves known to the rest of the system.
