Monstrous had a forum back then. I went on and saw right away it was full of people who were utterly convinced they were real life werewolves, psi and blood vamps, elves, all that stuff. They had so many little cliques and typed like High-lit roleplayers, but they were deadly serious. Those are definitely the most common otherkins out there. A lot of it is definitely more 'nature' based - Elves, fae, deer, things like that. It feels like a hippie love of nature and animals, and people who try to dabble with crude modern renditions of shamanism and lucid dreaming.
I think all of those communities grew up and moved to Fetlife.
Or, at least, the morbidly obese women who dance around in the forest wearing nothing but faerie wings had to come from somewhere.
