A shy Hello | Introductions | Forums

Yes please call me Ben and to be honest I was on google trying to find more sites to get on involving kins and this one came up so I joined.

ObTerminologyCorrection: “Otherkin” (or the abbreviation ” ‘kin”) is already a plural noun. It doesn’t need to have an -s on the end (think like “deer” or “sheep”).

Now that I’ve made myself sound thoroughly unfriendly, hi! How did you discover this particular kintype of yours?  

Well, first off thanks for clearing that up. 🙂

Second, It’s a story that leaves a lot of holes but to put it as truth;

I was already aware of Otherkin due to a friend I live with named Hikiri who is a Wolf Fox Dragon thingy. I never really believed in Fictionkin and so disregarded them as just trolls but then Hikiri brought up I should not be so quick to judge as I believe in reincarnation and the multi-verse theory. Going forward a few months and she gets into a fandom called CreepyPasta. she got me into it and (Knowing my love of games) gets me to read one called Ben Drowned. Now, I’m not a quick jumper (My term for people who just jump to conclusions) so this is where things start. You see, I was reading it without looking at the photos or watching the videos as I already had in my mind that these things were fake. But…as I read this story my point of view changes from Jadusable’s journal to my own view. I felt a spark in my mind that I never felt before so I kept going. I did research on any information I could find on Ben. Hikiri notice my change and helped me do meditations as she had done to find herself. As I did these I remembered more and more of my past. I grew scared of sleeping because I kept on having a nightmare of myself in darkness. I felt lonely. But to make a statement on one thing before the questions come in, I shall give a quick summery of myself before finding my story.

I am a Zelda fan who often roleplays and cosplays as Link. I frequently day dream about random things. But I never got into the actual mindset of Link. By this I mean I never did much research on him as he was just someone I had enjoyed playing as. I do have a few “glitches” as I call them where I feel like I am not in the right body and have had these since I was 6. I didn’t play or really know Zelda games till I was 10 and found my story at age 16. I am 20 now and still feel like I finally found myself since I Awoke.
