extra digits

Having more than five fingers or toes. Usually an artistic error which amateur and professional artists alike are prone to on occasion. Earlier versions generative AI are especially infamous for getting hands wrong this way. When not an error, extra fingers can often be found on mutant or otherwise monstrous humanoids.

• Hannibal Lecter - The Silence of the Lambs (novel)
• Count Tyrone Rugen - The Princess Bride
