Factic (FAKT-ICK) Definition: An alterhuman identity where someone involuntarily identifies as everything within a group. For example, a factic of royalty would identify as royalty (princes, princesses, kings, queens, etc), and also everything associated with royalty (lions, swans, palaces, red and purple, gowns, crowns, carriages, gold, authority, knights, etc). It is not in a conceptkin way as this person is not the CONCEPT of their kin/facttype, they simply ARE their kintype/facttype, but this person is not a throne in an objectkin way, this person is not a prince in a concept or metaphorical way, this person is not a lion in a therian way (keeping up the royalty example). They are only a lion associated with royalty, but still, not in a therian way. They are everything associated with and under the 'umbrella' of the word "royalty" in a literal way (like how a wolf therian is a wolf), they are not the concept, aesthetic, state, title, etc. of royalty, they ARE everything within the word of "royalty" and associated with it, just not as separate kintypes. While royalty was used for this example, this can apply to everything (toymaking, leadership, writing, childhood, etc). CANNOT BE APPLIED TO REAL LIVING (or lived) PEOPLE. THAT WOULD BE FACTKIN. Prefix: "Fact", something that is real and existing within our physical world (although this identity can be cartoons, animation, toys, etc) Suffix: "Ic", pertaining to or characterized by Symbolism: Green: Nature, earth, riches, biology Brown: Objects, buildings, man-made objects Blue: The sea, titles, roles Dark grey: Colors, textures Stack of cards: The limited amount of things within a kin/facttype, but there can still be hundreds to thousands of combinations and things Four pointed diamond: Courage, wisdom, honesty, strength Coined by: magnussato on Tumblr Coined on: 7/28/26
