D&D General Races/creatures with six fingers?

[J.Quondam]

Looking for races (or humanoid-ish creatures) with six fingers on a hand; or more specifically, five fingers and a thumb.
Yes, I could google, but that's too easy.

Are you looking for official races or fantasy art that all explicitly all have this, or DnD races that could have this (i.e Simic Hybrid, Warforged, Changeling, Tiefling).

Either is fine, "could have six fingers" or "do have six fingers by official description".
The main attribute I'm looking for is that they're more or less humanoid, giant, fey, etc. (IE, not looking for six claws or tentacles or whatnot per major appendage.)

Polydactyl Tabaxi.

Haven't seen them stated out, but there are the Mannegishi from Cree folklore.

Humans have five fingers so having a number of digits greater than that is difficult to manage with makeup & not too likely to be seen in fiction. You ca find plenty of rubber forehead aliens*, funny eared aliens*, & even really wack ones like Saru the rubber forehead alien in pony boots. Six fingers is pretty much the realm of starfish aliens though.

Spoiler: These guys from arrival are all I can think of

oops apparently they have seven fingers not six. If you read the book with the short story there's a lot that doesn't translate well into the film about the gift they give her & some on why they came.

*aliens can be replaced with anything, it's just a trope name

I have heard of Angels having six digits. Perhaps aasimar?

 

[J.Quondam]

Polydactyl Tabaxi.

Nice.... Why settle for six fingers when you can have 8 or 9!

That's a really good find. I'll have to thing about that. Thanks!

Yeah, that could be a decent take. Aasimar or Tiefling both could fit the bill in that respect, with the precise ancestry defining exactly how many digits or something.

Back when they were still called the "arcane," the race that was renamed the "mercane" (from the Spelljammer setting) had six fingers on each hand.
