There's a character in "The Path of Neo" called the Witch, who appears to be some sort of enchantress, and I think there's a swarm of ant-men you have to fight through. I would think just about any sort of mythical creature would be possible among the Exiles, since the first two Matrices (Matrixes? Danged Latin correspondence course...) were more fantastical: the first being an almost-fairy tale like world (something like Arcadia in Greek mythology) and the second being the exact opposite, ie. a hellish place full of monsters.
For the prison guard captain? Hm... I'm guessing something that would make WGAnubis's Marrith look cuddly. Maybe something along the lines of a Balrog (the fire-demon thing in Lord of the Rings).
Don't forget the Dobermen, Caine, Abel, and Cujo.
It's funny, I wrote a chapter on Blackwood not so long ago, her crewmate gets banished there so she must take her crew in to rescue them. It's so much fun, because the kind of things you can include really have no limit, good and bad;All of the Pandora NPCs (Seraphic agents, men in white coats etc),Army of undead, )A Fire dragons/Chimeara,Giant Scorpians, Giant Spider, Trolls/Ogres,A witch, half scorpian-half human, (She was the guard of the giant scorpians)Unicorns, Fairy-Queen, (This allowed me to write a sort of wizards battle, quite nerdy but hah :P )Fire demon, (Like a few posts above, I took the idea from the Baelrog, a demon covered in fire that wields a giant whip)Phoenix birds.I set the blackwood up like an island, placed the person to rescue in the centre and worked inwards from there. ;)spha x

Note the use of the silver bullet in the movies.The Dobermen are lower-level Lupines who have yet to achieve the level of power and influence that mid to upper level Lupines possess. They are noted for their werewolf-like features and appearance. Like all Lupines, Dobermen possess incredible physical resilience towards damage, shrugging off most firearms and injuries as if they were nothing.Their fighting style is similar to Hung Gar, with a few exceptions, adding in moves that are tailored after their bestial nature. Like Vamps, they can be put down by stakes and crossbow bolts, and silver harms them a great deal and is part of their Killcode.Lupines is the term used for older, more powerful Dobermen. They are what Dobermen seek to be. Lupines Supposedly possess within their foundation code, the ability to transform their RSI and all of their abilities and powers tied into that form into a huge hulking wolf-man hybrid form. While this has yet to be seen, Lupines have on occasion, manifested very long and sharp claws, which are an extension of the RSI, and another ability tied into their Foundation Code.And let's not forget the gang that everyone forgets...The Cueballs.(If you don't get it, see Coat Check Chaos)Also, there's Cerberus... (The Guard to Club Hel. Three Identical Bald Guys? Guarding Hel? Coincidence? I doubt it.)
I'd stay away from non-humanoid stuff, it gets silly and takes you out of the Matrix. Imagine if they were to escape. Then imagine if your in a Goth club and its really dark. Would your head explode if you saw a Blooddrinker? Probably not. What if you saw a Leprechaun or a Minotaur? Probably. Think of the Bluepills! The Merovingian probably wouldn't allow exiles that wouldn't somewhat blend in this iteration. Think of all the heat he'd bring down on himself from the Machines.
Loved the Witch from PoN, btw.

I think The Merovingian should invest in a fleet of GIANT BLACK DRAGONS!
And they randomly attack the most populated places in The Matrix. Everyone would love to fight a giant black dragon.
But seriously, maybe homeless people... who get involved in a life of crime...
perhaps Mafia Exiles?
More Hired Thugs around the city would be cool.
Crackheads.
The Matrix needs crackheads.
