outsetter

An outsetter is a term sometimes used in specific contexts to describe a person who has left a particular group, community, or situation, often to establish themselves elsewhere or pursue a different path. The word implies a deliberate act of departure or separation from a prior status or location. This departure can be for various reasons, such as seeking new opportunities, escaping unfavorable circumstances, or simply desiring a change. The term is not widely common and its specific meaning can vary depending on the cultural or social context in which it is used. It generally conveys a sense of someone who has set themselves apart from their original environment. The act of "setting out" is inherent in the term, suggesting an initiative taken by the individual to move away from their established position. The outsetter is therefore someone who has initiated their own departure and is in the process of establishing a new existence or identity outside of their previous context.
