This isn’t exactly fictionkin related but uh. How would one “channel” a character and mentally swap with them, for example to harness their strengths or something? To take on their identity for a while? What would that be called or like, do you know where I could start searching for information?
That’s called copinglink if you want to draw strength from and ‘become’ the character. Check tumblr #copinglink for more information
Or if you want the character in your mind as an independant advisor figure its called soulbonding. Check my blog @soulbonder for more information
