Host is oftentimes confused for [[Core|"core"]], because in some systems, one headmate is both. The former can be any headmate of any origin, while the latter refers to a body's native personality; both may or may not exist in a system, though, and a system without a host can be labeled as a [[collection]]. A [[Co-Host|co-host]] (or [[perinaut]]) is exactly what it sounds like: a headmate that, with others, shares the hosting role. It is also not to be confused with [[main]].

host ( n.)
Applies toheadmates

A host is the headmate who is most active, most responsible for day to day activities, or otherwise is fronting most often. Not all systems have hosts, and some may have a rotating team for the role. In addition, some do not like the term "host", and choose to use alternatives; specifically, outernaut.
