TO HOLD

Position

the holding of forms

A position exists before any Persona steps into it and persists after they leave. It belongs to the world, not the character.

Has

What the position brings in place before the Persona: the mandate, the expectation, the weight the room already reads.

Orders

The one instruction the position gives. The Persona did not negotiate it.

Loses

What the Persona discovers they cannot keep while holding the position.

Drives

What the Persona drives toward because they hold it.
Has and Loses are the trade. Orders and Drives are the instruction and the direction. A position file succeeds when the trade is real enough that the direction toward the goal carries forward without being chosen.
