Multigender is an umbrella term, but may also be used as a specific gender identity. Multigender identities all fall under the nonbinary and transgender umbrellas. The multigender umbrella includes bigender, trigender, polygender, pangender, genderfluid, and possibly androgyne. These identities all fall under the nonbinary and transgender umbrellas. Multigender individuals have more than one gender identity, either at the same time, or moving between different gender identities at different times. A multigender identity doesn't require a particular kind of body, so a multigender person could be female, male, or intersex. They may or may not seek a physical transition to change their body.
