In myth, Susanoo was also a major DICK.

Wikipedia has some information on it, though it's a little sparse in places (mostly doesn't go into enough detail at points, IMO).
In the myth the beast he killed is the Yamato no Orochi (eight headed snake if I recall). and took it's tail to make his sword. Or is that yamato takeru?
