An ego-dystonic persecutor is a persecutory alter who harms another alter or the entire system by representing, behaving, or being against their beliefs, morals, ethics, wants, etc. (Example: A system is anti-generative AI, but their ego-dystonic persecutor actively uses it in order to cause distress to them.)
Ego-dystonic: "of or relating to aspects of one's behavior or attitudes viewed as inconsistent with one's fundamental beliefs and personality".

On the left side with the purple and black, I colorpicked it from spiraling-system-flag-coins's persecutor reflag.
On the right, I wanted to utilize Pantone 448 C (the brown), aka the "ugliest color in the world", to represent how upsetting and uncomforting ego-dystonic things can be. I decided to use a yellowish color to compliment the brown so it wasn't quite as much of an eyesore. I initially was going to use a bright yellow-green color that I found hideous, but it just ruined the whole flag, and I felt like I could make it somewhat more visually appealing (even though the point of the right side is to be gross colors).
All in all though, I've never made a flag before, so I hope this is okay! Reflags and recoins are welcome; I may not want my flag to be used by endos, but I don't want to try and "own" the concept.
A headmate who makes art as an outlet of emotions or thoughts of the system. This headmate is not necessarily the best artist in the system or one who enjoys art the most, but is simply the main person in the system who uses art as a coping mechanism.
