Looking at Greek mythology is a good idea, but you might want to alter the creatures a bit (Like a Minotaur with snakes and a Medusa with horns. Yeah, right).
You could also get your creatures from a book called "De Heersers der Duisternis" in Dutch. I don't know the original name (it isn't mentioned in the book, but it would most likely be something like "The rulers of Darkness"). It is written by Tanith Lee and part of it describes daemon society.
You might be able to create a quest based on them (which would be set in the equivalent of the underdark).

And the Earthsea books are written by LeGuin (which I already said before on page five)


Yeah you might have a point there... Fluffy would just be too damn scary

Anyway nice to hear that you read Tanith Lee, she done some good stuff, quite prolific as well. I think the book you are referring to though is a collection of five separate ones...can't think of the titles off the top of my head...

If you include an underworld quest I'd still draw on mythology and give it a twist of your own imagination
