Applies toheadmates, system functions

Walk-in is a word that has different meanings in different system communities.

A common definition refers to a headmate who comes from elsewhere in the inner world or another world other than Shared Reality. This phenomenon or manifestation most commonly occurs within gateway systems, or similar types.[1]

The term may also be used in tulpamancy or thoughtforms to describe a tulpa which was not created by the host and appear fully formed.[2] There are many different explanations for why this can occur among tulpamancers and some don't consider them tulpas at all.

There is also a new-age concept of a walk-in which involves a soul replacing the preexisting one, though this is not always considered a plural experience.[3] The term is also used by some therians and kin to explain their identity.[4][5]
