Captain Luteia (he/him, fae/faer)




I'm the host of the system, the most prolific, and the one you're probably talking to. So hey. I like motorcycles and am in university and can taste tannins but have a weirdly good palate otherwise. We think I have ADHD, but we're working with a therapist on that. I go by both Pale and Luteia largely, if you want to make nicknames if we're friends that's cool by me. I'm told I have quite the temper, but I'm also very short, so you can understand the kind of stress I am usually under.
I've been in the alterhuman community since August 7th, 2014, which means this site went up about a week before my seventh anniversary. I have seen the terms 'alterhuman' and 'copinglink' get coined. I was around when the biggest terminology-related argument was "you shouldn't say you're kin with X, say it's your kintype or you're Xkin". I have adamantly refused to leave tumblr in that entire time. I have done panels at Othercon, explained to many people what otherkin is, gotten thrown out and blacklisted from an entire fandom, and started fights with several big-name blogs. I like listening to others' experiences, and I hoard information and data like it's toilet paper.
My kintypes in full are as follows: Absol, from Pokemon Ranger: Shadows of Almia; Captain Meilyn Ranisson, background character from AdventureQuest Worlds; Pale Noel, from Evillious Chronicles: Original Sin Story; and Luteia Greenwood, background character from The Gray Garden by Deep-Sea Prisoner. Yes, I am literally four background characters the entire time. Lucky me. I've been soulbonding via my maladaptive daydreaming disorder as long as I can remember, so this isn't my first rodeo. New enough to the plural community to not know much history yet, here long enough to know sysmeds are the worst.
