list of legends and legendary places

Introduction

Try this site for a resource on mythological beings; just take a look at this list before using them to see whether they don’t already have canon precedence. Headings are, where applicable, linked to a resource about each legend’s original myth.

Keep in mind that visitors to Frost’s world are most likely to run into species legends rather than specific personages; moreover, legends stick to their own nations, so visitors won’t be likely to find an Indian legend in North America. (Borderkind are the biggest potential exception to this, but Borderkind are extremely rare and very good at passing as human or remaining hidden.)

When determining the demographic of legends, assume that legends which refer to specific personages also refer to a specific legend, while legendary creatures refer to a species: eg, Jenny Greenteeth refers to a specific being, while ‘boggart’ refers to the kind of being she is; Aerico is a specific demon, but many legends are demonic; ‘vampire’ refers to an extremely broad range of bloodsuckers, while strigae and pihuechenyi are specific kinds of vampires, but aren’t single people. These guidelines aren’t always true, as there is a lot of blending in mythology, but they’ll do.

Also keep in mind that many legends are facets of the same story; eg, in conventional mythology Jupiter and Zeus are the same god, only Roman and Greek respectively. In Frost’s world, they are different legends, born of the same story, with their differences separating them from one another. Assume that a different name indicates a different legend altogether, but related to the one represented by an alternate name.
