Echidaen is a term for systems used to describe a unique attraction between two or more intelligible non-human system members.
The attraction these system members experience between each other can be any form, such as queerplatonic, alterous, romantic, aesthetic, sexual, or platonic, or it could be a completely unique sense of attraction that only their species can feel and no others can describe.
This term is not to be used by systems who are anti-endogenic or against any non-traumagenic system.[1]
Etymology
Echidaen comes from the name Echidna, the half-woman, half-snake mother of many of the most famous monsters in Ancient Greek mythology, including Cerberus, the Lernaean Hydra, and the Nemean lion.
History and Flag
The term and flag were created by Tumblr user mogai-moth on August 3, 2019.[2] The green in the flag represents growth, harmony, freshness, safety, fertility, and environment, as well as representing snakes, symbolic of Echidna. The heart in the symbol represents love, while the rest of the symbol is made to appear similar to the otherkin symbol, to represent non-humanity.
