Why is it that everyone who names dryads and gnomes forgets to mention nixies and sylphs?
Oh yeah, and I'll add
Minotaurs
Gorgons
Lamia
Sirens
Golems
Abatwa (A peaceful race of tiny African peoples who live in anthills in Southern Africa, only revealing themselves to children under four years old, wizards or pregnant women. If a pregnant woman sees a male abatwa, she knows she will give birth to a boy.)
Bahamut (Monstrous fish from Moslem traditions. The legend goes that it floats in a vast sea. A giant bull rides on its back and on the bull is a ruby mountain. There is an angel on the mountain over which are six hells, then the Earth, and then seven heavens. The bahamut is so huge and dazzling that human beings cannot look upon it. Its name may have lead to the behemoth.)
