r/otherkin

I kin Pluto, if that makes sense. I've been thinking about this a lot and are there any other people who kin some celestial bodies? I'd like to find my buddies =)

I'm trying to create a worldbuilding project where minorities are considered normalized, like extremely normalized.

In your opinion, what would an Otherkin inclusive society actually look like? Like everything from broad categories of life and society to just mundane life, what would it look like in your perfect Otherkin world?

Hello, this is my first post here. I am starting to settle on being a sang vampire and at the same time non-human. I have been lurking around otherkin and vampire communities since 2007, but the communities had a strong focus on 18+ people, so I couldn't really get much out of them at the time. I dropped all related interests and tried to bury all non-conventional interests for 15 years, yet here I go again.

This human body vessel is at this point 30+ years old. Very little visible aging signs are there and most humans think of me being 10 years younger, no one guesses my age correctly. My skin is very sensitive to the sun and I get sun rashes, so I often have to cover a lot more, even when it's hot and my eyes are also sensitive to bright lights. To be fair, my mother also had photosensitive eyes and pale skin, but she was not vampiric as I am, yet had a strong connection to elves and fairies.

I am also a trans man, it took me a while to come to terms with my gender. I have been dealing with the feeling of being different and possibly non-human my whole life. Part of my rational self is trying to figure out if this feeling is rooted in trauma since I have lived a pretty isolated life, until fairly recently. So I am trying my best to rule out any mundane reasons first. I am also discussing these feelings with a licensed psychologist.

While I understand there is no time limit on searching for such basic questions, I can't help but feel like I am lagging behind on this and like my indecisiveness is a sign of poor judgement or something.

Are there any others here that are questioning their humanity and identity at a later age? What is it like for you to question?

believe it or not... I'm thinking I could identify with a fictional species but I feel like I still need to delve deeper...

there seems to be a lot higher bar for me to clear for a specific fictional species than a general thing. I know I am a fiery shadow demon, but to be fictionhearted is another thing entirely to me.

>!I'm thinking I could be like a Balrog (Tolkien) to be more specific...!<

I am psychologically a robot. and would like to feel more artificial. One of the things that make me feel more like myself is by wearing a vr headset and making the camera just show my surroundings. If anyone with robotic or artifical kintypes see this, what things do you do or have experienced that make you feel more robotic? This is both me wondering about everyones experience, and also me asking for suggestions.

I'm questioning plushiekin (objectkin plush) but I don't know where to start. Any suggestions of where I could look or other tips to help lead me in the right direction? Or possibly good questions to ask myself?

Ive always made jokes about me being a living doll or a humanized robot even a humanized alien.... I didn't know what otherkin or alterhuman was until a few days ago when I say a TikTok about it. So I did some digging and now im really interested.

Im not fully sure how it works and I could definitely use some help with the vocabulary. I still am unsure of what fully describes the way I feel or what exact community I fit in.

I know something along the lines of like an alien ai doll is about the closet i could get to even try and explain it. (Not in a futuristic cyberpunk type of aesthetic way tho)

Hello! Im an alterbeing with lots of identitys and im here to share experiences and more :] ive been awakened for about 2 maybe 3 years, im very well educated and exept physical/biological alterbeings and full nonhumans! (As one)

If you want ask abt me!

Hii! I awakened as otherkin almost a year ago, and I've already kinfirmed some of my kintypes. But I have a question, Im Conceptkin, And I am the concept of weirdcore and dreamcore, I wouldn't say they're separate kintypes, I feel like I'm both at the same time, considering that they're similar aesthetics, but anyways, I'm kind of not entirely them? I feel like I'm a fragment of both, as if I were an entity (with a physical body) that embodied their essences and was separated from them at some point.. I feel dreamcore and weirdcore, and liminal spaces as my home, and in a way, living forces for me, and since I am a fragment coming from them, I feel like a herald (or child), that needs to reveal what they are, talk about them... Etc.

Hellooooo lovely beings of r/otherkin!! This is my first time posting here as I haven't really ever thought about possibly being otherkin before. I've identified as a therian and a fictionkin for around over a year now but this is the first time I've felt this way.

So, I was scrolling on tiktok (as one does) and decided to just look at stuff about mythical creatures bc they're cool and stuff. And that's when I discovered Perytons! I'd never felt such an immediate connection to a species, mythical or not. It was like the second I saw it something in my brain just clicked (it's a very difficult feeling to describe, so sorry if I'm being vague 🥲). And that's when I started questioning being otherkin.

I'm not really sure where to go from here though. Like I know that I should probably do research and stuff but I'm not sure whete to look for information as it's very hard to find credible sources these days.

Anyway, thank you in advance!!

Does anyone else also randomly feel like they are every nonhuman thing ever? Ill have these short spurts of, im literally everything but human. I only feel like this occasionally, but I definitely have much more undiscovered identitys.

They're okie now tho

Hi I'm Syrus and I'm a selkie, I don't know if Im otherkin or alterhuman 😭

So, for a while now I've been questioning objectkin. Specifically plushie. I have been struggling a little bit to find some information and answers to questions I have, so I came here for help.

Could an objectkin kintype me linked to something like a fictotype?

Example: I am a fictionkin of three characters who are technically plushies (Huggy, CatNap, and Poe) and am wondering if being objectkin could be related to something like that.

I am not questioning this label purely because of that as I feel and have for a while a connection to plushies beyond those fictotypes.

I think I might be godkin. Specifically, the god of candles. But, I don't really believe I have any magical powers or any godlike abilities at all. The idea of worship seems extremely nice but also really gross at the same time as well (though that could just be my religious trauma). Main reason why I feel like I could be godkin, though, is I feel my fullest when a candle is lit. Like I'm summoning my spirit. And when I know someone else has lit a candle, I feel whole, and part of it. But at the same time, part of me is wondering if maybe I'm conceptkin with candles in some way? Like.. I'm the concept of the inventor/creator of candles?

The reason I feel this way is, I am DEEPLY connected to candles. Like... In a way beyond simply just really enjoying them. I feel very paternal towards them. Like, sure, I didn't physically make the candle I bought from bath and body works. Yet, I somehow feel like I did in spirit? As if I am what lead to them being created, and I have some sort of claim/ownership over them. I feel like my spirit is part of them somehow (despite the fact I'm not a spiritual person).

Either way, I feel like I somehow, someway created them and have some sort of otherworldly ownership/domain over them. I just can't tell what I am or how I am what I am or anything.. it's all so confusing. Especially since I really struggle with understanding how someone can be godkin or conceptkin.

Every time i realsie the episode come out soon i almost panick / have a pnaixk attack cause by a jax shift cuz im scared ill abstract, like last time ive realise i might abstract ive stayed in my closet for few hours the door close just cuz i was scared to abstract & that it is a safe place for me

Double if you have the same experience as me plsss interact!

greetings, I’ve noticed hate in alterhuman communities so I’m here to yap.

Are we good now? i don’t follow up on TikTok or whatever is popular these days but a lot of controversy between alterhumans, i think otherkin are pretty nice typically so i’d like to ask u all what YOU know about the current issues.

best regards,

Hello everyone. I'm questioning being a robotkin/androidkin, but I'm not sure.

How did you realize you were robotkin?

I hate how mouth feels. The fact that lower jaw is so flexible, but if you open it too wide it locks into place. The countless teeth and the fleshy, wet tongue. How food gets stuck between teeth, how teeth ache when clenching jaws too hard, how eating is a required thing for continuous functioning, and dont get me STARTED on the voice, omg, being trans also doesnt help there. Why cant i just play audiofile directly? why do i have to manipulate airwaves in these weird formations
