A bullywug will 99% of the time be in a swamp, hunting and gathering and worshipping weird swamp gods and being gross. A centaur gonna be in the forest or maybe some steppes, in fairly small numbers, only safe from being wiped out by disease by luck and divine intervention. Again, like regional species IRL, but with gods looking out for them against stuff like large scale disease and famine. So many of these creatures live in places humans only settle because there isn’t much competition or because they want to escape other humans. So, not in large enough numbers to really threaten the local bullywug or centaur population. The peoples that do exist in the same niche either are in conflict, or cooperate instead. Aarakokra live where pretty much no other intelligent creatures live, except maybe giant eagles and the like. Honestly, IMO it’s mostly goblinoids and orcs that pose a logical issue here. In my worlds, bugbears are forest dwellers and live in trees. Goblins are scavengers and live anywhere they can coexist with other intelligents. Hobs I often forget about unless someone wants to play one, tbh. Orcs live in the wild places, and most conflict with them is colonial, with the “pretty” races expanding where they don’t belong. Total population numbers of sapient species is similar to real world humans at a higher tech level, so entirely sustainable.</blockquote>
