-The shortcodes a note declares it used to be published under. A package's `(type, shortcode)` addresses are a published interface, and `addresses diff` reports what a build stopped publishing — telling a **rename** from a **withdrawal** by matching document ids across two releases. The property that rested on is gone: an id is derived from the canonical address, which carries the shortcode, so renaming a shortcode moves the id too: both sides of the join move together, the match finds nothing, and a rename is reported as a withdrawal with no successor named.

 **A continent is a region carrying a tag, not a subtype**, because structurally it
 is a region: the same fields, the same parent chain, everything but scale.
 
-#### A being's kind is the one tag group that is a slot
-
-A person and a beast carry very different amounts of data, and a being note says
-which it is with a tag rather than leaving it to be guessed from how much the
-note holds.
-
-| `beingKind` value | the subject is                                                                                                                                |
-| ----------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| `character`       | a person — someone with a name, a station, a history, and the attributes, skills and carried gear that go with living a life                  |
-| `creature`        | a beast, a monster or a made thing — statted for what it does rather than for who it is, and usually carrying no equipment and no affiliation |
-
-**The slot is filled once, or not at all.** The two are alternative answers to
-one question, so a note carrying both has answered it twice and every reader of
-the tag gets to pick; that is refused as an error naming the note. A being
-carrying **neither** is not a finding. The kind is authored deliberately, and
-nothing can tell a being nobody has classified from one whose author means to
-leave it unclassified — a tree part-way through tagging is a tree with untagged
-beings in it, and failing its build would be a rule about the schedule rather
-than about the content.
-
-**Nothing else fills the slot, and nothing else is refused for failing to.** A
-being tagged `undead` or `beast-of-burden` is describing the subject in the
-author's own words, in a region that is open, and this build has no standing to
-take that back. What is refused is a near miss of one of the two — `charcter`
-drops the note out of every query for characters while the list still renders —
-and the two of them together. Those are the only two refusals a closed tag
-vocabulary can make here, and both are errors, so a build carrying one fails.
-
-**The same two words name two other things, and neither is this.** `hm3.type`
-takes `character` or `creature` as the HM3 _document_ a being compiles to, in a
-system block rather than in `tags:`. The note itself uses `type: being`; `type: character` is refused.
-Three namespaces, one pair of words; the tag is the system-agnostic one, and it
-is the only one that describes the subject rather than a document.
-
-**Neither the book nor the website branches on the kind.** One flow serves both
-— the authored image, then the infobox, then the prose — and a creature's box is
-simply shorter, because it has less in it. A section with nothing to put in it is
-not emitted at all, so a creature with no equipment has no `EQUIPMENT` heading
-rather than an empty one, exactly as rule 4 of [the infobox](#the-infobox) drops
-a row with no value. The tag classifies the subject, which is what makes a list
-of the creatures in a setting a thing a query can ask for; it is not an
-instruction to a renderer.
+#### A being's subtype describes the subject
+
+`being` accepts the optional top-level values `npc`, `character`, and `creature`.
+The subtype classifies the note's subject; it does not select a Foundry Actor
+document type.
+
+| `subType`   | the subject is                                                                                                  |
+| ----------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `npc`       | A character meant to be encountered. It may describe a reusable template and need not be a singular individual. |
+| `character` | A detailed, playable, singular individual.                                                                      |
+| `creature`  | Any being that is neither a character nor an NPC.                                                               |
+
+`hm3.type` remains the HM3 document selector and must be `character` or
+`creature` when an HM3 being block is present. SoHL continues to compile beings
+as `Actor.being`. The note subtype and each system's document type answer
+different questions.
+
+Tags remain open descriptive terms. A being may carry tags such as `undead`,
+`soldiery`, or `draft`; those tags do not replace the `subType` classification.
