Well, this is a grand overview of the whole world, or at least this whole continent, too ... not all of these critters are going to be running around together.
Check out "mythic Europe" for its vast array of creatures...
I do think that most of the critters in my world tend to have regions they congregate in, rather than being world-wide phenomena. Elves and humans are just about everywhere ... and weres are going to be anywhere that humans are. The beast men are the ones that pose the most difficulty ... but the more I think about them, the more I like the idea of them being results of sphingish experimentation. I'll have to ponder that one a while. -TG
