Theriosystem

undefined:

A theriosystem is a system that collectively practices modern therianthropy. Within theriosystems, every headmate is a therian in some way, and, while the system may have a shared theriotype, it's not uncommon for headmates to identify with different theriotypes than the majority of the system.

Therianthropy is a deeply personal and intimate identity for the entire system, regardless of how connection to it varies between headmates. Each headmate may have a unique experience of their therianthropy, but it is a critical and fundamental aspect of the system's overall identity. This can be in the form of spiritual, psychological, or even physical bonds with animals/non-humans.
