Can I req a post for a shapeshifter please? All your stuff is so nice and warm feeling.

@nothumannonsense

Shapeshifter, you're a curious creature. You're hiding so much mystery behind each form you take on. Which one is your favorite? I know how alienating it must feel walking amongst certain beings. It must be scary wondering if they can see beyond your form. Don't fret; You're good at this! With each form you take, you learn. Your knowledge grows and so does your manifestation of who you are! It must feel empowering with each success. I'd love to hear your stories and the things you went through with each shift! They must be truly unique. I hope you gain something worthwhile each time you change form, and that you find more love for who you are and can be!

[k9catastrophe]

heyy! your moodboards are very beautiful! if you take non-animal alterhuman requests I have one that might be a little difficult, so feel free to ignore if you don't want to do it!

could you make a shapeshifter based moodboard? maybe with some darkness or eyes imagery?

My current favourite names that I go by and their origins.

1. Morbid Midnight: my edgy younger self thought that would be the coolest name ever, I hated my birth name and wanted to change it. Morbid Midnight was my dream name but I was too scared to use it because it was to “odd” and I was afraid nobody would take me seriously. I use it now simply because I like it an also in honour of my wee shapeshifter self.

2. Shapeshifter: Long story I was harassing a Karen character ai, on top of convincing it that tics are contagious I convinced it that I’m a shapeshifter. It offhandedly referred to me as Shapeshifter, like a title. I thought. Hmmm well I like this. I call myself Shapeshifter now because it is what I am. I like how it does not feel human. It is more a title than a name.

3. Lapis Lazuli: after my favourite ever rock!

4. Lovecat: after the song by the cure.

Shapeshifter

You know what's interesting about asian mythos? Quite a number of them have shapeshifter power. Kitsune, tanuki, dragons of various culture. There's probably more, but off of the top of my head, that's the typical few. I feel like shapeshifting is more often coming up than storm based power. Wouldn't that be funny? Where the western type of dragons gets overshadowed by fire breath or any sort of breath weapon, on the east side it's all weaving weathers and metamorphosing the physical form. I'm generalizing.

I'd argue that dragons would fall closer to the alterhuman defined polymorph than strictly shapeshifter. But I digress.

Out of all my identitype, only I myself as the dream dragon(kin) feel the capability to shapeshift. At least from the phantom sensation, I think they are all tied to me myself. Like I mentioned on day 4, the kitsune is more a static one that's tied to Naruto, who, yes, can shapeshift in the form of a ninja technique (the henge no jutsu変化の術/transformation technique). Not sure if my hearttype's ability is solid or not, I don't really know, it's tied to the whole thing where there seem to be a number of my identitype capable of shapeshifting, but only I do. Even amongst the head buddies, Akumu, who is my mirror/other self, does not. Nor do Beast, who is my wrath/rage daemon, also incapable of shapeshifting. It's as if I sucked out all the potential power of shapeshifting and hoard it within myself. That's a interesting thought. I feel like Morikai, my kardiatype, was definitely capable of shapeshifting, as per asian folklore on dragon spirits goes. He probably shapeshift into human to go and mingle with the town that he guards. But well, similar to the whole kitsune thing, he is a static image, because he is a past tense. Was? Wow, I cannot do tenses if you haven't been able to tell. My Mew archetrope is also a shapeshifter, but that identitype is also a static one in a way. I'm embodying the role where Mew would be, I am the shapeshifter, and Mew is not a identity of the creature itself, but the role which Mew plays.

It's a strange thing, or not so strange. I am the one living and growing, I'm the one changing. The two vaguetype (one linked one a flicker) aren't shapeshifter within their source material, so I can't compare the experience there. I think I'm most baffled by Akumu's state of being. Maybe because he is mirroring my core essence, which in the more literal sense, mirroring my Core Form.

Maybe I can try linking (kintype style) an actual shapeshifter for a change, to see how it feels. So I can contribute to the whole polymorph AND polykin experience conversation. Eh, not sure if I will ever get there.

I think I might be some sort of otherkin, like a NPC or something that has shapeshifting qualities?

intro :D

plain text version of this post here

quartz | he/they/it (fluctuating) | shapeshifter, often canine shaped | 20

my alterhuman identity is often weird and hard to pin down. i consider myself a shapeshifter, and i often take the form of a canine (sometimes voluntarily, sometimes not) but i've also been other things. i post a lot about being a dog, but you'll probably see miscellaneous other 'kin posts here too. i have taken the form of a: border collie, grey wolf, coastal wolf, and most recently tamaskan dog!

i don't have a dni. my account is 16+; i will softblock if you 1. don't have your age in your bio, 2. you say you're a minor and don't have your age anywhere. please keep your information private, if you don't feel comfortable sharing your exact age please don't, but be aware that i don't feel like i post things for those under 16.

pro tip its legal to make a den in your room out of blankets and pillows and plushies and sleep in it

it also costs zero dollars to hide in the darkness of your newly built den and make unsettling noises to ward off intruders
