Applies toheadmates of median systems

Facet is a less-differentiated headmate, most commonly seen in median systems. They may present as an "alternate personality", holders of specific traits or emotions, or "masks" layered over a central headmate (called a core, blanketself, or other names). Typically, facets do not have amnesiac barriers, but not always.
