Stray/Claws

Color Meanings

Violet: Represents the rarity of hybrids and their uniqueness and strength; shows their willingness to stand out despite not always being recognized, like ultraviolet rays.

Violet Gradient: Each bar of a lighter violet represents parts of a hybrid that are different from their parent species. They represent diversity, change, growth, secrecy and longing, as well as the inherent interconnectedness that exists within them as a result of being a hybrid.

Gray Vertical Stripe: Represents the gray area of being a hybrid; the feeling that you are not just one thing, you are both, and the recognition that that also makes you one new unique thing. As gray is a mixture of black and white, it represents the uncertainty, but also self assuredness and identity.

White Vertical Stripe: Represents a hybrid’s personality, their identity, their soul — who they are inside, separate from their hybridism. This stripe represents wholeness in personality and existence.

Shapeshifter: A being whos mental, physical or spiritual self (refered to as “forms”) change voluntary or involuntary. This can be associated with alterhumanity, gender or simply an identity/label.

Shapeshifters can also have different morphs, which are like subforms that morph with one or more forms. An example is a bat puppy, which could either be a puppy form with a bat morph which causes said puppy form to have a variety of physical traits, mental traits/mindset, abilities, or diet that of a bat, and vise versa.

A shapeshifter can have human, humaniod, kenomimi, anthro and/or feral forms. There is no limit to the amount of forms or morphs you have and forms/morphs do not have to be real/ from this world or time period.

Shapeshifters do not have to identify as alterhuman or human and are able to choose to be a shapeshifter if wanted due to the ideology of being a shapeshifter being about fluidity in any part of the being’s sense of self.

Shapeshifters do not have to have multiple forms or morphs for a variety of reasons, one could be loosing connection/ feeling of other forms/morphs.

Some shapeshifters may be domesticated or collared (by owner, friends or family) due to them being heavily intertwined with the ideology that they’re meant to serve as a domesticated animal or creature would, this could be having a connection with being a service animal, being a form of comfort, a herding animal or anything else a domesticated animal serves to their providers/owners.

if you have any questions or anything you think should be added please let me know!! I can confirm I will be making alternative of the following : feline shapeshifters, canine/dog, fox, digital, cyber, fictional, feral, and object.
