alterhuman identity writing prompts (abridged)
This is a simplified version of a really long list of prompts for writing about alterhuman identities We compiled recently. The full version is available at https://voxel.gay/library/identity-prompts.
This list is intended to be comprehensive for a lot of different kinds of alterhuman identities: archetropes, extranths, factives, facttypes, fictives, fictotypes, hearthomes, hearttypes, kintypes, theriotypes...
This was written because We wanted to share about Our alterhuman identities, but We're not very good at communicating without being prompted. We compiled this list from a bunch of prompt lists We found online (linked at the bottom). We're sharing this list with you in hopes that it may help you too.
