alters/headmates having images of their own?

orchestratedmess:

i know that multiples with fictives are bound to have their alters/headmates/preferred word having an image of themselves, but i wondered how many systems without fictives have alters/headmates with their own physical body/image on the inside world?

mine have an image and i’m always curious to find out if more people have this too. i know some systems who do that i/we are friends with, but always interested to know how it is for other peoples’ systems.

any multiple system can answer this and also people who are friends with multiples can too if you know about this stuff! would love to hear from anyone with answers, basically~

Yeah, all of us do.  I actually have two different ones for myself, reflective of my two-sides-of-a-coin median-within-multiple thing.  One’s the image of how I want the outworld body to look, partially for the comfort of a few of our other members and mostly for my own (since it’s still, for all intents and purposes, mine), and the other’s how I look inworld.  I have no idea which one I’d call my “true” form.

Even with our fictives, there are a few who don’t look exactly like their canon counterparts.  Byron comes to mind.  But he’s only about half-fictive, to be fair.

I really really need to get drawings of everyone up here.  I’ve drawn most of us and put doodlepages up on MA, but not here.  And Taylor has some self-portraits he needs to upload to his (*cough*currentlyempty*cough*) sketchblog.

I’ll do some new drawings soon. I need to be drawing anyway. XD
