| Question | Soul Frame term |
|---|---|
| Same entity over time? | **Identity** (numerical / reidentification) |
| What continues? | **Continuity** (may branch) |
| Historical relatedness after branch? | **Lineage** |
| What is it like? | **Characterization** (narrative/character) |

Causal, organizational, psychological, autobiographical/narrative, normative,
relational.
**Anchors / evidence (not constitutive alone):** provenance, address, substrate.
## Topology labels
`CONTINUOUS | DEGRADED | UNCERTAIN | SUCCESSOR | FORKED | RECONSTRUCTED | USURPED | TERMINATED`
## Implications for artificial systems
- Actor/Body replacement can preserve identity (substrate independence + continuity dependence).
- Sameness of data is not sameness of Being.
- Forks require governance; perfect copy while original continues yields FORKED lineage.
- Ghosts default to authorized succession/representation, not automatic numerical identity.
- Explicit identity governance is required because state is inspectable, copyable, editable.
