Anthropomorphism is the concept of an object, concept or character that has human qualities or traits, such as speech, a level of intelligence similar or higher than a human's and self consciousness. "Anthro" means "of human" and related to the concept of humanity.
Cartoon characters are personas from cartoons, which are animated moving sequences that are usually drawn but can be computer animated and can come from television, movies, anime or even the web. They can be humans, animals, or even things usually not thought of as living.
Cartoon physics refers to games which do not conform to regular physics, but the "laws" are for a humorous bent rather than conforming to reality. Sometimes it ignores physical laws, like gravity, or tweaks them, like not being totally blown away by dynamite.
Some characters have purely white eyes, some have eyes that radiate light, some have no eye-sockets at all. This is a page for all the occularly impaired.
Games in which the two main protagonists are of different species.
Sidekicks, different from partners, are less powerful, less important characters who support the main protagonist and generally stick by their side.
Even in settings with many different races, sometimes a specific character will be of a race no one else in the setting recognizes. While usually it is a plot point, occasionally it is a running joke that nobody knows what species they belong to. Usually the characters are very unique.
