Kumiho are another people with the gift of shapeshifting. But unlike the felidae, they cause even greater paranoia in the hearts of the inhabitants of Kaarum. After all, according to legends, they are able to transform into any individual they see.

Cringetober 2023 - Neko (Animal Parts)
This little guy is Vaughn, a kumiho character I made in middle/high school when I was kinda conglomerating a bunch of ideas together. He has memory problems, and writes his memories in the journal he carries. He was supposed to have his own story, but it never got anywhere. The more I think about what I had, the more I think I can probably repurpose him. Maybe I'll draw him again in the future.

New to your blog and I saw in one of your posts you mentioned the demonization of DID within media and horror especially. I'm used to knowing this as things like the movies split etc but you mentioned werewolves aswell. As an avid dnd player I never really connected the dots but it makes a lot of sense how things like werewolves could be an allegory for people with DID and perhaps other horror related media and stuff also do that (perhaps jekyll and hyde).
I'm not well versed on the topic and was wondering if there's other creatures through mythology or stuff like that that are possibly rooted an abilism and stuff like that that you could point out for me? Sorry if any of that came across as offensive or anything

Hi there!
And there's a ton of it.
Before going further, it's important to note that pluralphobia can be broken into roughly two categories. The first is the fear of BEING plural. Of sharing your own body with someone else.
The second is a fear of someone else being plural, or otherwise not being the same person they used to be.
Stories of demon and spirit possession will touch upon both forms of pluralphobia and I've talked about them a lot.
But something that's not brought up often that contributed to this is body snatchers.
Many mythological creatures throughout history have fallen into this category. Despite not technically being plural, these stories stigmatize and demonize people for acting differently than they did in the past. For being different people.
Take, for instance, a story of a girl who goes into the woods collecting mushrooms and goes missing. She's found days later by her father who is overjoyed to have her returned.
Afterwards, strange things start happening around the farm. Animals start dying. And the girls' brothers are sent to watch the lifestock at night. One by one, the brothers tell the father what they saw, and he doesn't believe them.
One of the brothers is banished by his father while the others don't speak of it further. He goes to live at a temple for a year when one of his brothers comes to get him, telling him he needed to return.
The brothers return home to find their estate in disrepair, and their livestock and the rest of their family dead. Only the sister is alive, when she's revealed to be a Kumiho: A 9-tailed fox demon who replaced their real sister.
(Note: I'm summarizing the version from the Myth & Legends podcast we heard well over a year ago from memory, so some of the details may not be totally accurate. Also, that's a really great episode and you should check it out even if I did spoil the ending.)
This story isn't intentionally pluralphobic. It's intentionally sexist, with the moral being to believe your sons over your daughters. But the pluralphobia isn't intentional.
However, stories like this and many others created environments where systems couldn't exist.
These stories weren't JUST stories. They were superstitions that shaped cultures.
I don't know if people believed this specific story as an accurate historical account of something that really happened. But they believed in the Kumiho and creatures like them. Just like people believed in similar creatures that could replace your loved ones.
Luckily, I don't know of anyone killed because their relatives believed them a Kumiho. (But we likely wouldn't know. These were peasant beliefs most popular in times when lower classes were illiterate and much of this history wouldn't be recorded. Let alone survive to be translated into English.)
But when it comes to superstitions of Fae body snatchers, Bridget Cleary wasn't nearly so lucky.
Murdered by her husband with several others who accused her of being a Fae.
For other ableism, some have also linked changelings to Autism and other mental illnesses, being used to justify child abuse and torture.
What would it have been like to be plural before the modern era?
With this in mind, I think it's important to consider why we don't hear much of psychological plurality until recently. The body snatching trope may not be a direct allegory for plurality in the same way as demon possession. But it contributed to an environment of superstition and fear.
Today, being out as plural, headmates wanting to go by our chosen names instead of the body's, means that we may be disowned by family, abandoned by friends, harassed on the internet or lose our jobs.
But historically, it's likely that plurals who came out would have feared treatment like that of Bridget Cleary unless they lived in a society with culturally accepted plurality, where spiritual possession might be welcomed.
