arachneit ; a term to describe the most prominent/well defined facet of a webbed median. they have no attachment/relation to the pre-plural self, and instead are the highest independently functioning facet, and are typically the closest to partitionary a facet can be. they may ‘wear’ other less-differentiated facets as masks to assist with tasks or modify their behavior in some way— they may also be the most frequent fronter or the host. a sort of pseudo-core.
as a role, an arachneit who helps other less-differentiated facets communicate/front can be referred to a maskwearer.
