Why not create a new category, called Humanoid?

  Among the other magical creatures, inho, are Kelpies, Redcaps, Gryndelows, Blast Ended Skrewts (ick!), dragons (including each species in Book IV), Centuars ("ruddy stargazers"), Agragog & his family (i.e. giant spiders)  and flobberworms.
  And are grims real magical creatures or figments of people's imaginations? I think I'll just include them because they really don't belong anywhere else


  I am having more problems putting the more "human" magical creatures into this section (although I firmly think the centuars should be) I am not sure about including House Elves in this group - it feels demeaning to them (this is me channeling hermione).
  And what about the mermaids & mermen - are they magical creatures? What about Dementors (I know, not really humanesque)
  And Goblins, Veela or Lepreuchans?

  I am leaning towards just doing them all and prefacing the FAQ with a statement that they're not all the kind of "magical creatures" which would necessarily be part of a Magical Creatures class.
  .
  Also, is someone doing an Animagi faq? It woudl be appropriate for me to link straight to an animagi faq, but I think it's more than can be incorporated into this section.

      What are we defining as Magical creatures and animal characters? 
       
    Heidi may have different thoughts but I would do the following: 
    Animal Characters (Hedwig, Crookshanks, Pig, Fawkes, Scabbers) 

    Magical Creatures (Owls in general (cross reference Animal Characters); phoenixes (cross reference Fawkes in Animal Characters); unicorns; hippogriffs; werewolves; etc.)
