Definitions

Noun
  1. 1
    A nonhuman or fictionkin-like identity willingly adopted by an individual, distinguished from otherkin and fictionkin by being a voluntary identity, instead of a labeled but involuntary experience.

    "There’s no way to objectively know if a particular alterhuman individual is actually an otherkin, otherkith, or otherlink. As with matters of gender identity, they have to be taken at their word—sometimes quite literally: it might be a word you've never heard before."
