anthropomorphized
Made humanlike, figuratively
Anthropomorphized describes something nonhuman that has been given human characteristics, emotions, or behaviors.
Animals in children's books are anthropomorphized when they talk, wear clothes, or have human feelings: The anthropomorphized fox schemed and plotted like a politician.
The term applies to anything treated as humanlike—gods, animals, machines, abstract concepts: an anthropomorphized version of Death.
