A mostive is a system member who is an introject of a character that another member of the system created, especially for a roleplaying game or similar.
The defining trait is that the character was created from scratch or close to it, rather than altered from an already existing character.[1]
The term's name is derived from the Latin 'mos', meaning 'customize'.

- Mostives may be considered a type of OCtives, introjects of original characters, created by either the system or outsiders, and therefore both fictives and autojects.
- If the mostive is sourced from an OC for Dungeons & Dragons or a similar roleplaying game, they may be considered a dungeonborn.
- If the traits of the mostive influence the further development of the character, this headmate may be considered an ouroboros.
