3.1 The Warrior (Defender of Consensus)
The Warrior
Role: Protects the manifold's integrity. Enforces injectivity (no double-spends, no identity fraud). Maintains compactness (bounded, stable topology).
Journey Pattern:
Through: Patrols boundaries, identifies attacks
In: Validates every puncture and path within domain
On: Stands as a node of verification, visible and accountable
Out: Cannot leave; commitment is permanent (Full Node mentality)
Examples: Bitcoin miners, moderators, full node operators, fact-checkers
Ethical Burden: Highest responsibility for manifold stability. Must actively close punctures and reject invalid paths.
3.2 The Sorcerer (Manipulator of Flow)
Sorcerer
Role: Wields flow mechanics to modify topology. Can create or destroy, heal or puncture. The dual-natured architect.
Journey Pattern:
Through: Sees beneath surface to underlying structure
In: Operates from within the manifold's core logic
On: Commands attention; moves energy with intent
Out: Can exit and re-enter at will; not bound by ordinary paths
Examples: Protocol developers, propagandists, viral content creators, narrative architects
Ethical Burden: Maximum responsibility for intentional topology changes. Must justify every puncture created, every handle attached.
