Otherkin is a subculture you never knew existed of people who don't think they're all the way human. Otherkins may or may not have physical powers related to the animal that fills their "not human" hole. There are many types of Otherkin, such as Elvenkin, a group of people who claim to be elves (they are allergic to iron). Vampires are Otherkin, as well.
One of the more interesting Otherkin subsets is the Dragonkin, a group of people who believe they are reincarnated dragons. They have magic powers but will only show them to fellow Dragonkin. Through a process called "Awakening," Dragonkin can connect with their "draconity" and regain their old dragon memories. If you run into one, they are supposedly non-aggressive, despite history's long list of unwarranted dragon attacks.
