Hi, I'm one of the common wolf type therians.

so, what is a Therian? I have never heard of this thing.

A therian is some-one who identifies as being not entirely human internally. Not is a physical sense and neither do they believe they are an animal, being completely aware that they are human.
For many, this can be explain spiritually; a lot of kin (therians/otherkin) believe they have the soul of an animal (or some-thing else for otherkin, plantkin, object kin ect).

But it is a little more complicated than that in most cases as a lot of kin (including myself) believe that it is more of a psychological thing as it does effect one in more ways than just spiritually. It can effect your moods, feelings, behaviours and can even cause people to experience phantom limbs in the form of their kin type.

It's very difficult to explain to some-one who doesn't experience the same things as you what it is like, especially not without people jumping to conclusions. Also there is the added issue that you can ask what a therianthropy is and get a million different answers from everyone as there is so many different opinions and yet so little research done into it.

Hopefully this isn't dead.

I'm a velociraptor therian, and I just thought I'd introduce myself. I'm socially awkward and not sure what else to say, so, yeah, hey!

Huh, thought we didn't have a thread on here. I was going to make my own but luckily I searched first.

Hi, polykin cat here. My kintypes are black jaguar and shapeshifter, and I'm also water-hearted and possibly snake-hearted. If you're on Chicken Smoothie, the otherkin thread on there is great and active.


(This was so long ago there's really no point in answering, but meh, I will anyway)

Otherkin identify as nonhuman, wether they think of it as spiritual or just psychological. Therian is a subgroup of otherkin who identify as an animal that lives or has lived on earth (like a wolf, cat, or dinosaur instead of a griffin or dragon)

Greetings, I am SairenMin.

I am Fae, and been a part of the Otherkin community for over 15 years. I am open to help answer any questions or problems one might have.

I just started exploring a few fictionkin sides recently... but I want to make certain we are allowed to discuss such before I go off on a tangent.
