I am...both, I think. (Though I don't have a fursuit, and probably won't ever be able to afford one. I doubt I could physically get into character anyway. XD)
It's mostly mental with me, I guess. I identify with (at least) four different species...one is otherkin (winged unicorn), one is (supposedly) extinct (thylacine), one is unpopular and misunderstood by the majority of society (hyena), and the main one is small and spiky (hedgehog). X3 But I can sometimes be others as well. (I was a dragon once...and exactly once. XD) I generally call myself a 'shapeshifter' because it's easier.
But I know that physically I am human and won't ever be anything else (unfortunately XP ). Don't want to freak out the mundanes, after all. XP

XD Of course its possible to be both. A lot of people dont seem to understand that just because you can be both doesnt mean its the same thing.
I have a friend making me a yarn tail. XD

I made a tail myself, but it's...not the best. Textiles are not my strong point. XD

Hmm I would consider myself to be of the former, though by that definition I suppose Therian applies a little as well o3o

i have a different definition of Therian Multiplicity.... actully, never mind... i found too many links (._.) [yeah way too many.. and what i am, is a split personality... not a therian. Thats Drake over there. he's cool... until he burns your ass] {Its your fault for taking my meat!!} [yeah, but your fire breath burnt down the house... AGAIN!!!!] .... he's a dragon....

Well A multiple (A wider term being Plural) means you have More than one mind or Soul dwelling within one body. You don't have to be therian to be plural, though many Are.

{I HEARD THAT!!! IM MY OWN BEING!!!} doubt it >:3 {DX}
-What they're stories really are: Dark was in a fire, and a beam came down and hit him on the head. and from then on, he has seen Blades. and he thought that Blades saved him, and not a fireman. and Drake came around when (another fire... Dark's a pyro :3) he was burning a stack of yard debris (legal in Oregon) when he accidentally dropped the fuel canister in the fire he saw a person in the fire (Rorschach effect) his already broken mind created another person after getting blown back a few feet and then having 1-2 degree burns across his body.

Interesting. Who is dark?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Me. [im blades] {*with a mouth full* IM DRAKE!!]
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
XD Im curious who you two are tho.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Blades and Drake? cause im Dark.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
XD Um, Whats Blades story?
Whats Drakes Story?
what Im trying to ask. XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Blades saved Me, Dark, from a fire and likes swords. While Drake from another fire incident, Dark saw the shape of a person in the fire explosion, and then gets hit in the head by debris and then Drake is born. having me talk totally out of character is totally weird for me because thats how i talk in real life as well. so having to explain my personalities is like trying to explain why you like your favorite color. (stories are fake but personalities aren't)

XD Okay I get ya. Very interesting.

what might also be interesting, is that i can imitate Golem/Smeagul from Lord of the Rings >.> [he really can...]
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
XD I tried doing that on occasion. Also tried mimicing Stitch. XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
just take the Golem voice, slow it down, and lower the pitch so its not so high. and then say this sentence: Stitch's family, is small and broken, but still good. yeah, still good. and there you have it!! Stitch!! he's the first voice i could imitate. and if you take Shaggy's voice from Scooby doo, and change up the speech pattern a bit, you can imitate the Parody Krillin voice of TeamFourStar. (TFS abridged)

A lot of people were completely misinterpretting this image. Assuming it meant I thought All furries wore suits and that All therians Never expressed themselves physically.
This is to clarify what this image Really meant and to avoid the tiresome work of trying to explain it to every individual person.
