post #930025 post #1861458 post #2776447 post #1728147 post #664203
An character that closely resembles a human in anatomy and/or form but also has some added visible features that are strictly non-human.
Humanoids are generally not furry, with the exception of animal humanoids and animal head characters.
Humanoids are always upright, usually have a body in large part covered with skin or ambiguous/ non-organic textures, have at least one set of hands or arms that articulate like a human's, and will usually have a flat more or less vaguely human facial shape with the exception of animal & object head characters.
Typically what counts as humanoid, but is not limited to:
- Fantasy species such as dwarves, elves, fairies, goblins, and orcs.
- Human-like aliens, angels, demons, gargoyles, monsters, robots, and undead.
- Human-like Pokémon like Jynx, Gardevoir, and Meloetta.
- animal_humanoid, monster girls, and other forms of moe-esque anthropomorphism.
- Animal head, object head, and other creatures with non-human heads on human bodies.
- Legless human-like ghosts, and lamia
