❧ About ✶ Noemata

Discussing noemata, source relations, and personal history. This likely won't make sense if you are unfamiliar with Arcane. Last update/edit was on March 4th, 2023.

➺ What is Noemata

noema (plural noemata) - noun

(otherkin community slang) Knowledge about oneself, one’s kintype, or the life of one’s kintype

"Noemata," as a term for otherkin and similar experiences, is most simply and clearly described as "inherent knowledge you have about your kintype. This may include memories, things you experience as memories but likely aren’t, or general knowledge about your looks, life, habits, or surroundings." This is how Aestherians on Tumblr describes it in raer essay on the creation and meaning of the term, and how I'll use it here.

I'll also be writing this largely in the present tense, because it's easier and does not matter.

➺ Introduction/Contradictions

As I assume you know, my name is Viktor. I am a Zaunite who's spent most of my life in Piltover, defying very low expectactions. My "canon," as it's called, aligns very closely with what is seen in Season 1 of Arcane--I haven't noticed any differences yet.

Relatively, I am very early in my life in modern consensus reality--as of writing, I'm technically only a week old. That is to say, I have not had much time to adjust to this life, or to distance from my new one. I have more [source] noemata than an understanding of daily life on Earth, which is part of why this page exists. I have not had an Earth life.

I also have very strong noema that I'm not seventeen. This body does not agree with that.

If I went through all the contradictions between noemata and the facts of my current reality, this would be a very long and very uninteresting page. The only things about myself that really apply now is being a cripple (which this body does agree on) and a scientist (which means I'm used to learning things that make no sense the long and boring way).
