Therian

Therian
noun

A person who “spiritually identifies” as an animal but somehow still uses Wi-Fi and DoorDash. Says they didn’t choose it, they were “born this way,” even though most found out after binge watching TikTok edits of wolves to lofi beats. Claims they get “shifts” where they feel animalistic usually ends in them crawling on all fours or growling at their mom. Actual nature knowledge: zero. Ask them what a theriotype is and they’ll say “my inner fox.” Ask them why they don’t hunt squirrels or pee outside and suddenly it’s metaphorical. Basically: identity crisis but make it fuzzy.
Example:
“Don’t judge me, I’m a Therian.”
Bro you barked at the teacher and ran on all fours in a school hallway—what exactly did you want us to do, clap?

fox therian

A fox therian is a therian (shortened from the word therianthrope) that has one or more theriotypes (polytherian) of a fox and other animals, or just different types of foxes in general (pluritherian).

(Background info on a therian)
A therian is a person who emotionally, psychologically, and/or spiritually connects to one or more animals, but knows that they are a human being physically. Most therians are NOT zoophiles and a lot of therians are not furries so don’t even start complaining about that, please. Therians may also do quads (quadrobics) but they don’t have too, and may experience shifts but not always.
Luna is an Arctic fox therian! She loves to do quadrobics and lay in the snow. She only experiences shifts occasionally.

Nox is a swift fox therian, but doesn’t do quadrobics. However, she does in fact experience shifts quite often.

Briar is a red fox therian that never experienced shifts.

Sam is a fox pluritherian while Bea is a polytherian with one of her theriotypes being a fox.
