Mythical creatures for my book?

Question: Mythical creatures for my book!?

I'm looking for a mythical creature that takes human form, preferably a male, that is not a vampire or a werewolf!. I'm just looking for something a little out of the ordinary to your usual vampire and werewolf story!. Oh, and it would be better if it was evil too!. Thanks!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
