How do you call that race again ?

#1 Post by Teron »

Since Cat-People ( or however you wanna call them ) are sort of a big thing on the internet I was wondering if there is a name for this kind of race. You know these human like animals or how Tom calles them in TK Keidran or Neko or whatever I dunno what to call them.

Do you mean anthropomorphic creatures?

This is the fandom and not the race or am I wrong?

In the Twokinds world, they are known as Keidren, pronounced K-eye-dren.

If you mean in general, outside the comic, I've always called them anthros. Furries are the people in the fandom, not its object of passion. In my mind, at least.

Furries being the fans and not the object of their fascination makes sense, since... what would you then call the fans? You can't call the love of the fans and the fans themselves the same thing, it doesn't really work. Unless we had the tech to have anthros in literal, breathing existing reality, then it'd make more sense, but we're not there yet. Unlike what some think, it's also not the porn-y side of the fandom either.

Anthros are their usual term, anthropomorphic creatures, being creatures that share human traits, usually physical ones, but sometimes less physical ones such as being able to speak with intelligence in any possible language(s).

At least from my experience that is. ^_^

See, I always thought it was pronounced kay-dren. Also that Basitin is pronounced Bass-ee-ten. (bass as in the fish, not the instrument).

Oi Tom can you clear it up for us one and for all with like a pronunciation chart or something that lists out how to say everything that people get confused over for example Natani is read differently by lots of different people. Also Basitin, and whatever else you think might come up. I doubt you will see this but still I would be a big help.

I just sent Tom a PM about your question. At least this way you have a reasonable chance that he'll find out about your question, though it's still anyone's guess if he'll reply.

Hmmm......about what I expected when almost half of the questions I'd want to select a few of the answers not a specific one.

It's a debated topic that bears clearing up. Thanks for your support guys. Forgive me for doubting that pming him will do anything.

I always thought it was more of a Key-dren myself, but having Tom weigh in will get us our answers.

Bellhead already gave the answer for keidran, but have some references.

I don't have anything for basitin, but it seems pretty straightforward.
