Otherkin is a term for those who believe that they are mentally, spiritually, or physically other than human. First appearing in use on the Internet on April 18, 1990, the word was coined when a member of The Elfinkind Digest, Torin, "got tired of typing elf/dragon/orc/etc.-kin and just used otherkin" as shorthand.[1]
