Also keep in mind it isn't a site for otherkin writings in general, it's for those that are or feel they can be described as 'animalistic'.
Maybe a slight change of wording, then, if you're referring to things like unicorns and gryphons rather than elves and fae. Like "Terrestrial >> Fantastical (Otherkin)", to mean "fantastical animals, which may also be called otherkin", or "Terrestrial >> Mythical"?
eta: Duh, you kind of suggested just that yourself. Note to self, read whole comment before replying :P But yeah, I think the use of the term "otherkin" might be confusing without clarification as to just what types it covers in this context (i.e., only a subset of otherkin, those who are animal-like).
