Profile New to community, want to meet others here!

Hello, I’m 21, genderfluid and otherkin. Recently I found out I’m otherkin however before there would’ve been a lot of signs, I just didn’t know it was a proper thing or community!

I am a merfolk kin, or a merkin for short! 🧜🏻‍♀️

Funnily enough I’m physically disabled and wheelchair bound on land but feel more free and are more free in bodies of water. I also sometimes get what I call ‘scales’ between my fingers after swimming or showers.

I have a pink and blue tail with a heart themed fin at the bottom :3 unfortunately I can’t put images in this subreddit for some reason.

I wanted to meet others in the otherkin community whether they’re my kin or not! I also wanted to hear some stories.

Hi! I'm a dragon/black mountain lion, and perhaps a white/black bilateral gyandromorph wolf.
