AUman coining post
AUman (Alternative Universe huMAN) is an alterhuman term intended to describe the following experience/identity:
being a human from an alternative version of this worlds history
being a human from a world like this earth but with any significant difference that makes it not this earth e.g. a world where everything is the same but aliens walk amongst humans
being a human from a completely different version of this world, or entirely not this world e.g. being a human from Mars in a world where Mars is colonised.
Your specific universe is your AUtype.
An AUman is not;
A fictional human character from established fiction in this world, or any other - this would be a fictotype,
A factual human/'historical figure' from any time in this worlds history (even if your memories/noemata recalls alternative history) - this would be a facttype.
One can be an AUman and a human of this world. One can be an AUman and nonhuman in other ways. One can be an AUman and fictionkind or factkin.
[I'm terrible at flag and symbol design, so do whatever you will with that lol. I made this an official post because I saw at least one other person who had a similar experience to my own AUman identity]
