Floranivor
Floranivor is an identity and umbrella term for identities in which one's gender is centered around flora as a whole, as well as manipulating and commanding the plantlife around oneself. It can be an identity based on the beauty and gentleness of flora, but can also be centered around the danger of certain plantlife. The user can either be ethereal in their presentation like a flower, vicious in their presentation like carnivorous plants, or a mix of both. It is also inherently related to shades of dark green.
Floranivor may be connected to the umbrella terms wilderic, kasvionan, florauna, and/or wisteric, but isn't inherently related to them. It was coined with the Plant coven from The Owl House in mind, but isn't necessarily connected to it. It doesn't have inherent ties to any other umbrella terms (ex. xenogender), but may overlap depending on the user.
