taur

A character having the full body of an animal, but with a humanoid torso where the animal's head would be.

Lamias, harpies, mermaids and similar usually do not apply, because their lower body is not a full monster body. There are exceptions (see below).

Common Types

• centaur, humanoid torso on horse body
• arachne, female humanoid torso on spider body
• certain depictions of sphinxes
• certain depictions of arthropod girls and boys
• centauroid, umbrella tag for centaur-like animals that are not horses (goats, deers, etc)
