Any human that lacks [[augment]]s of any form, either [[Wikipedia:Cybernetics|cybernetic]] or genetic.  If a baseline human is augmented, that human becomes a [[posthuman]], which is a more specific form of [[metahuman|metahumanity]].

All people in a modern day [[RL]] nation are baseline humans, barring those experimenting with basic cybernetic implants.  Prosthetics do not classify someone as [[posthuman]] because medical prosthetics are intended to return functionality to a person, not grant them superior functionality.  Prosthetic legs that increase the speed a user can run or the weight a user can lift classify as an [[augment]] and thus make the augmented human using it a [[posthuman]].
