ENDEL

An individual who identifies as an entity due to psychosis or delusion, or attributes the causation of their identity to psychosis or delusion. This term is a self-identifier and is not to be used in a derogatory manner. 

ALDERNIC

Aldernic is an umbrella term for individuals who have, or wish to have, a body that deviates from what is expected in society or typical human notions. Aldernic may refer to fictional characters who have a different type of body from humans, but it may also be used by people who desire a body that does not match any existing body or a body that is not possible by human standards. This community is not inherently alterhuman but can be and is considered adjacent.¹

CONSTELIC

Denotes an individual who adopts an identity(s) throughout their life. Constelic individuals are not born with constels, and constels may not be permanent. This may be anything, from animals, places, objects, fictional creatures or characters, etc. This may be voluntary or involuntary and thus is not inherently otherkin.²
