I've had some posts that are similar, and have done the same thing -
where they talked about little-mentioned beings or beasties, I just
put them under the main 'Beings' or 'Beasts' header codes, using
FB&WTFT as reference for which category was appropriate.
I thought that if any individual one of them started to attract many
posts/threads, we could go back and re-code the ones we had bundled
away, and pull them out under a new sub-category.
On Ernie, I'll add him, as he does come up from time to time.
Here's some more posts: 22001-22250.
