[Image description: A flag with seven diagonal stripes which are dark blue, orange, yellow, white, yellow, orange, dark blue. Over them are three thin vertical stripes, one in the center and one on each side like letterboxing. The stripe in the center is periwinkle blue. The stripes on the sides are black. End description.]

Angeltyrre: An identity for people with Schizotypal Personality Disorder that experience some combination of the following: a strict personal morality, delusions of grandeur/martyrdom, fixation on justice, formal/stiff affect, a feeling of alienation from humankind, and a connection to angels. Pronounced “AIHN-jel-teer”.

[Image description: A flag with seven horizontal stripes. The top two and bottom two stripes are split in the middle, making each of them two colors. From top to bottom the stripes are: dark teal and dark mauve, teal and fuchsia, off-white, black, off-white, teal and fuchsia, dark teal and dark mauve. End description.]

[Image description: A flag made up of rectangles, arranged in four columns and two rows, surrounded by a very thick black border. The rectangles, from top left to bottom right, are: bright purple, pale purple, pale orange, bright orange, bright orange, pale orange, pale purple, bright purple. In the center where the pale rectangles meet is a very small black plus sign. End description.]

Faunoxen (or faunoxen+, if typing): An umbrella term and combination of faunagenital and xenogenital. We are aware that faunagenital is a subset of xenogenital but wanted to create a new term 1) to be a standalone adjective that can be used to refer to someone like “they’re faunoxen” and 2) that presents the two identities as equal and interconnected since the known conception of the “alien” is based off of what we know of biology and how it works. In other words, this is a form of dysphoria/euphoria that is connected to speculative biology.

Cangeltypen/Angeltypen-C, the Christian angel wiretype. 

This is a self-imposed identity where you define your brain as being “like an angel’s brain” or “angelic”. This term specifically refers to Christian angels; we know nothing about Jewish angelology and thus wanted to make a distinction. The “C” in the term stands for both “Christian origin” and “Choir”.

We wanted to diverge from the typical pastel “angelic” palette for this flag. The orange represents fire (which Biblical angels are associated heavily with), the light blue represents the sky (which is present in most Heaven imagery), the gold represents the mineral gold (I specifically had the gold leaf used to make halos in paintings in mind), the white “wings” are a more literal symbol for angels, and the dark blue cross in the center is meant to stand out boldly like a silhouette. The cross and wings also form a stylized eye, as a reference to the angelic duty of “watching over”.

As a personal note, the specific hues and shades were mostly eyedropped from Thomas Blackshear’s “Watchers in the Night”, which hung at the foot of our bed for our entire childhood.

Template for the “winged” flag is under the cut and can be used in coining new wiretypes if you feel the design fits. 

[Image description: A flag with three horizontal stripes. Their colors from top to bottom are: black, grey, dark mauve. The black stripe is twice as thick as the other stripes. End description.]

Iraft asexual/iraft-sexual/iraft [identity]: An aspec identity for “I Really Am Fucking Tired of sex”. This is an orientation for when you have been exposed to so much sexual content that you are exhausted of it and are sex-repulsed, though you may or may not feel attraction. 

This is an umbrella term for dehumanizing identities that are forced onto a person by trauma, abuse, or illness, but later accepted as a core part of their identity. The flag depicts a triangle (trauma/abuse/illness) pressing down on a box (the personoid) which is expanding from the sides. 

These are from the Oid system.

Note: the flags came out sorta looking like fem/masc/neut versions of each other, and I may change that later, but for now these are the flags and they are all genderless. 

Edificoid: When human identities do not apply to you because you are a building. The shades of red refer to bricks, and the window is grey because it’s opaque and blocking the view of observers.

Edifivoid: When you have no identity because you are a building. The shades of blue refer to nighttime or space, and the window is black because there is nothing inside.

Edifiloid: When you are a building and your identity mimics/is affected by the people within. “Loid” is short for “celluloid”, as a reference to how films capture the image of people. The shades of brown refer to both wood and human skin tones, and the window is yellow because someone turned on a light.

[Image description: Two flags made up of five concentric circles. From outside to inside, they are: black, golden brown, tawny tan, pale tan, and white. The golden brown circle has twelve symbols on it (the glyphs for each song on the album). The white center circle has white lines coming from it as if it is glowing. The flag on the left has a tan music note in the center, while the flag on the left doesn’t. End description.]
