If otherkin was a real thing how come no one is Background Character #3 kin or something like that? Everyone is the important hero protagonist, the edgy villan or somewhere in between.
Mayhaps you aren’t looking hard enough?

Considering I’m just a random Qunari who doesn’t even show up, OP really isn’t looking hard enough.
Same for me with gnolls. I’m not even an NPC, I’m just a random gnoll
I fictionflicker a lot, and often not to main characters. Thank you Steven Universe for making me flicker to Blue Pearl every time I watch the show, that girl shows up in like 5 episodes.
The handful of fictionkin in our multiple system are almost nothing but random non canon mentioned people.
Vatrith is just some brown Pernese dragon (he isn’t even a idealized bronze!), Ebony is just some random thestral, Cavern-Risen is just some garou, etc.

I am background character #3. Three fucking times. In a row.
In the Year of Our Lord 2018 people are still claiming they’re divinekin and saying they should be worshipped… good God it doesn’t get any more narcissistic than this
I can’t believe; in the year of all lords, ladies, and other nobility, 2013, people are still taking trolls and 12-year-olds at their word and bitching about it in the tags because they don’t have the critical thinking skills required to pass third grade, in hopes of garnering attention through whining. Good Gods, it doesn’t get any more narcissistic than this.
I wish there was something I could add to this to make it funnier but he really did it all by himself well done
For context, the post he commented on asked what your theriotype has inspired you to do
As a white (English / Italian with a dash of other stuff, primarily Irish and Yugoslav) Canadian literally living in Vancouver; white Canadians didn’t even have a culture to start with. I literally don’t have one. We don’t have any traditional foods or holidays or hell, anything. The best we can do is an accent that sounds like an American news reporter (or so I’m told, I’ve never heard American news reporters).
There can’t be a genocide of culture if there wasn’t a culture to start with.
And secondly, Canada isn’t exactly my homeland. My mother’s Italian family “settled” (I don’t know the exact history, but I’m 90% sure Native folks were probably already there) an area of Ontario, and my dad’s grandparents immigrated over from Yugoslavia. (Why English folks lived in Yugoslavia, I don’t know.)
I can literally trace my father’s surname back to one specific town in England. There is no genocide of white folks. We weren’t here first. We don’t have any culture to speak of. Oh, and we’re not being systematically killed. I should know, my second cousin’s the prime minister. Thus, there’s no genocide.
[gestures to that mess] That’s racism and white supremacy, plain and simple.
holy shit that’s really fuckin cool and you’re right, im definitely Not To Be Angered. not sure about death god exactly but im some kinda ancient eldritch thing so possibly? also yea i’m a soulbond, the owner of this blog is my brother and he finally let me post shit here lmao
im not so sure about bein rad but i’ll take it, thanks man!

(aaalso please tell us more about that elder god father of yours)
Oh, he’s your brother? 😮 I figured it was some sort of familial relationship but I honestly had no idea exactly what was going on there.
You sure are rad, that much I do know.
(I can tell you! The wiki page for him (fictionkin, because kill me) is here; though the creator doesn’t seem to know much about him. He’s the Devil of Devils, and that’s about all canon will tell you.
(art credit; Vicers on left with Mom, aka Justim on right)
Where I’m from, he’s very much an elder god in the same way Ego from GotG2 is. I’m not entirely sure if there’s a brain in the core like Ego, but he and Justim are one big ass planet and they send down shards every now and then. They feed off of the energy of everything around them, and the way it worked, a dead rock with nothing on it would provide less energy than a dead rock with lots of ruins on it, so they turned some mortals into Devils and Gods (effectively just deities with malevolent / benevolent energies, but one Devil and God pair to a planet to mimic what they were doing themselves), and made them create their own worlds to generate said energy for them.
I was one of the Devils so as far as I’m concerned, the two are my parents. My brother’s a clairvoyant and from what he can tell, the two of us do eventually get back to Vicers and reascend (in his case, ascend for the first time) into Devils, so I’m looking forward to that.
Point remains is that you’re similar to my dad and thus I would not be surprised if you were at least partially an elder god.)
yea he was literally my little brother in at least 1, POSSIBLY 2 lives.
(also were both fictionkin too so don’t feel weird about it!) but that’s really cool, do you like still talk to him and stuff or is he just somebody that you remember and are looking forward to seeing again?
I can definitely understand that.
One of my sourcemates and old friends has a shard of him in their system, but we don’t talk much and I’m not entirely sure he’s the same Vicers or a completely different person who shares a face and name. If he sent down a proper shard around here, I haven’t seen it. I’d like to see him again, though. He was a pretty decent guy, all things considered.
Though I haven’t ruled out stealing the rose quartz my friend Dana has that’s effectively a magical version of a nuclear reactor at this point and using it as a signal flare to get his attention. I’d probably also catch the attention of a lot of other unpleasant things, but I haven’t ruled out the idea quite yet if it might work.

what if jesus was just godkin? (like ignore the whole christian religion for a second…)
I mean I know this is a joke post but not really knowing much about the finer details of Christianity I’m actually curious if Jesus Christ fits the criteria of a God Shard.
Like as far as I understand Jesus and God were the same “person” but Jesus was considered the “son of God” and that sounds like God sharding to me?
Which depending on how disparaging this post is actually meant to be, might elicit some mockery but I’m genuinely curious considering God Sharding isn’t strictly an otherkin thing.
I know very little about Christianity, but I’m pretty sure sharding would fit Jesus quite well, considering the whole virgin-mother thing. That would require some sharding, at least on a rather small level, just to pull off.
(But that also brings up the nuanced point of: is putting your energy into something to alter it considered sharding, since the only difference is that now it’s imbued with your godly essence?)
Speaking of personal conceptions of how u need to act based on ur otherkinity when I started this blog I tried to be all majestic and proper and tbh it was the absolute dumbest thing lmao
Yeah I felt like I wasn’t allowed to post anything unless I was in headspace, but that’s not realistic!
Exactly! I’m a goddess but I also an idiot on the internet me @ me let me shitpost in peace
Hey guys, I got a message earlier from @je-suis-la-fleur asking if I had a kin list and quite frankly, after a lot of frustration, the only thing I’m really willing to consider myself is Faer.
Dana’s the only thing I’m actually really sure of. I know there’s something Equestrian in me but the more I try to figure it out the harder it is to grasp, and I’m really unclear on what my relationship with Snow is.
So while yes, Dana and Equestrian Magic and Snow White are all a part of me in some way, Dana is the most prominent part and the only one I can feel confident in.
Maybe someday I’ll have a better idea of it but for right now I’m just everyone’s Faerie Mom (or Faerie Godmother) and I’m perfectly okay with that!
I just started to get in to tumblr and saw something about “otherkin” and “plantkin” on youtube. What do they mean? Apparently they’re some form of people or something. It would be great if some on answered this.
Otherkinity is defined (usually, the exact wording varies but the meaning never does) as an ontological phenomenon in which someone identifies partially or entirely as a nonhuman entity (or a fictional one, in the case of fictionkin) on a nonphysical, involuntary, and profound level.
If you have any other questions, let me know and I’ll answer them.
I made a ‘big step’ for me today. I started to play the bass again. I
wanted to do this for a longer while, but since the passing of my father
I never did it again. I was afraid for the emotions that would come,
because he was always listening and I miss him a lot. Music was
something that brought us often together. But after 3 years I
decided that it was time to start again. Music is something that helps
to let out emotions, and it is a loss if I would let my skills float away.
I have since a few months an idea in my mind for a project. To get that
to reality I need to get it back in my fingers again, with a lot of
practicing. Same goes for the guitar, but that comes later.
And I have to admit, it wasn’t that bad as I thought it would be to
play. It feels more like a relief than it was painful. The only thing
that hurt now are my fingers. The first step is made.
Good job!! You’ve made the first step, and that’s always the hardest. I believe in you!!
