Walk-in 

In the otherkin community it is understood that sometimes these entities just "walk into" the body of their host; this can happen right after birth, or later in the life of the person concerned. The origins of these souls vary - some are human souls, some are nonhuman souls, others something entirely different.

Another phenomenon usually confused with that of the above mentioned, classical Walk-ins are the so-called Hosts. These are otherkin whose body hosts various entities, usually since birth. Some Hosts claim that the souls residing in their body are soul-bonded[?] relatives, friends or even lovers from a past life.

Generally, the Walk-ins and Hosts claim to be able able to switch between the personalities residing in their bodies at will; in such situations, the main-personality (in most cases, this is the soul of the original inhabitant) simply "takes a step back" and lets another entity "come forward".

Otherkin who find themselves in a hosting- or walk-in-situation are also called Multiples.

Those people usually stress that it is important to make a distinction between people who suffer MPD (Multiple Personality Disorder) and themselves; unlike most MPDs, Multiples claim to have control over which personality uses their body, and that they know that there are several entities residing in them.
