Category:Dissociative

characters who have been diagnosed with or display the signs of Dissociative Identity Disorder (formerly known as Multiple Personality Disorder) - these individuals have a fractured psyche that often makes it appear like they have more than one personality, often one or more of these personalities is seen as malicious or dangerous (at least in fiction), the condition is linked to other mental illness such as PTSD and is controversial among the medical professional (in large part due to its portrayal in fiction).

Do not add beings who are possessed by demonic entities or aliens (for that use Possessed/Brainwashed) - also do not confuse with Alter Egoes (as alter egoes are simply personas made by villains to disguise themselves, perfectly sane individuals may have alter egoes for a variety of reasons such as keeping their identity a secret - much as superheroes traditionally wore disguises : dissociative characters literally see themselves as two (or more) distinct individuals and are not in control of the changes).
