a system where individuals from other realities or timelines different from the system's body end up in that system.
for those resulting from a trapped gate, it is very difficult or, most commonly, outright impossible to leave. this is often because their body within their original reality/timeline is deceased, but this doesn't always have to be the case. they typically do not end up in their current systems of their own will, but are rather placed there by forces outside of conscious control.
this can be very similar to a locked gateway system [x], but differs in that there are typically no physical gates or portals innerworld (unless intentionally created), and it centers around parallel realities, rather than what one might consider a completely separate world.
a headmate that is not originally a part of their system's reality, but ended up there as a result of that system being a trapped gate system.
these headmates can have memories, vivid and detailed, of their individual lives, and may often feel confined by their consciousness' relocation to their current system. trapgateormic headmates tend to struggle greatly with being stuck in their system's current body, as they once had their own, free of the challenges that come with the system, form, and lifestyle they are now part of.
