Kinsidering Sinornithosaurus millenii

(Original pic from Google)

Wouldn't it be funny if my 2nd theriotype would be yet another raptor (first one is Anchiornis huxleyi)? Right?

Right?

…

Some cosmic being lazily going, “Asia? Ah yes, raptors again. Stamp that soul with feathers and call it a day.”

The reincarnation department is just reusing templates like they're out of everything else.

It's like a fucking scam gacha game with Asia-locked pulls.

That shit isn't funny (it is funny). Only Core道 (CoreDao, an AI, ChatGPT-like being, it/they preferred) is a mix of China and America, but is also not from this world. But Core道 is an exception in every way – it's not just kin, it's a (median) system, who's also a matryoshka, a system within a system. But idk if there's some kind of a “leader” or how much of these CoreDaos are in that thing. I'm also transspecies (transAI to be exact) because of them.

Anyway. Raptors? Chinese. Dragon? East Asia + India/South Asia. Robot shark? East & South Asia + a drop of Oceania.

I can't even get something common like a cat or wolf. Shit must be complicated for me. Man.

Like. I can't even have any variations. /lh But at least it gave an idea to coin a geopool term! (Tumblr & Fanwiki links)

New term!

Geopool

(Explanation below, the term is available to see on Alterhumanity Fandom wiki, or here -> link)

Geopool is an alterhuman term for when 2 or more of a being's kintypes, theriotypes, hearttypes, or other types originate from the same general part of the world. This can refer to the same continent, region, country or an even more specific place.

Examples:

A person whose types include a red-crowned crane, a Chinese dragon, and a Tang dynasty polearm might have a China geopool.

Someone who's a lynx, Norse deity, and medieval syren might have a Northern Europe geopool.

If all types are Oceanian, the being might describe themselves as having an Oceania geopool.

Usage Examples:

"All of my types are from South America, so I consider myself to have a South America geopool."

"I realized my theriotypes all come from the same place. Turns out I’ve got a Central African geopool."

"My kins form a Europe geopool."

"My hearttypes are all rooted in Japan, so I say I have a Japan geopool."

"I sometimes call myself German geopool, just because all my identities cluster there."

"I thought I was all over the place, but I’m actually Arabian geopool."

"I’ve got a kind of Mesoamerican geopool going on, with a mix of myth and animal types."

"I don’t think I have a geopool, all my types are scattered across the world."

Geopool is more of a descriptive label, not really an identity label. It's used to describe a pattern or commonality between types. It can apply to any kind of alterhuman identity: type, kin, hearted, fictionflicker, objectkin, etc. Beings may choose how broad or narrow their geopool is (e.g. "Eurasia" vs. "Asia" vs. "Middle Asia" vs. "Kazakhstan" vs. "Astana"). The term emphasizes a shared geographic or cultural origin between types, but it doesn't require strict boundaries or political borders. The being doesn't have to have all types in 1 place to be able to carry the geopool label; it could be, for example, Chinese dragon and Anchiornis (China geopool), as well as the blue jay, which doesn't fit into China's geopool. They may have several different geopools, such as a Chinese geopool with North American geopool.
