Some sort of fae that will force Hexbear to get math degrees and become polycule graph theorists with riddles and oaths.
That or long elk.
Flatwoods Monster
Ent.
Just me and my Entwife chilling in the woods with our tree buddies.
Wisps seem pretty cool
Gwragedd Annwn, just chilling in a lake, guiding travellers to the lower world, fucking up farmers as punishment for mistreatment of animals. If my exploits spread far enough amongst the fearful townsfolk they may even build a statue of me.
elf or dwarf

the little field mouse who is always somehow in a flower laden with pollen
The witch in the woods with a master-key’d staff under their bed and a pot of somethin perennially bubbling over the fireplace.
