Plain text: Xenani. Shortened to Xa. When you have a non-normative sense of self/core identity in any way. (Similar to how introtives/introjects identities work, but not a specific to systems). It’s intentionally vague, so it can cover a wide range of experiences – it can be related to transID, transpersonality, introjects/introtives, fictives, factives, otherkin, otherhearted, synpaths, copinglinks, funlinks, D/As, etc, but doesn’t have to.
Examples are identifying as a fictibeing/fictional character, not having a core identity/sense of self, having multiple core identities/senses of self, having half of an core identity/sense of self, identifying as an inanimate object, identifying as a concept (like an aesthetic), etc. (Etymology: “Xen” from Greek “Xenos” + “ani” from Welsh “Hunaniaeth” meaning identity)
