Demi-human

The definition varies between communities/fandoms, but generally a demi-human is considered to be a human sub-species with foreign physical features, heightened senses, special abilities, nonstandard colors and/or a nonstandard lifespan. They are mostly human in appearance and exhibit an intelligence similar or equal to humans.

Demi-human is a general term that includes fantastical species such as elves, giants, angels, dwarfs, merfolk, and even animal-related variants like wolf-, fox- or cat-folk (the list goes on).

There are countless shows, games and anime featuring demi-humans, a few examples would be Lord of the Rings (show), The Elder Scrolls (video game) and Goblin Slayer (anime).

Demi-humans are not equal to anthropomorphic animals despite some having animal features, and most furries agree that demi-humans are not part of their fandom.
Example:

Human traveler: This is the most diverse town I have seen so far... I have never seen more demi-humans in one place. And I see that you finally brought your dwarf friend with you.

Dwarf: He is a halfling, our species get confused a lot, but yes you can refer to us both as demi-humans.

Demis

He's the kind of guy you'd say, wow, he's very self-confident, and yes, he is, he's handsome and he knows he is, he's funny and could make you laugh in the most absurd way you can think of, he's a not rule-follower by nature. If you are a girl and you do not fall for him, something is wrong with you or you are a lesbian, which is totally valid.
I love you so much Demis, you're so soft and kind. It's almost unthinkable that you don't have a definition here.

Demi

She'll boot scootin' boogie with you assuming you're a decent human being. She never toots and she's true to her roots. Her laugh is infectious and her snoring is rhythmic. Can probably outdo you at darts and pool. While she can hang with the best of them at the watering trough, her daytime job as a prosecutor ensures that she's eating like Diane Keaton.
Guy1: Did you invite Demi to darts?
Guy2: Does a one legged duck swim in circles??
