God | Shinto

Storm god and brother of Amaterasu; exiled from heaven for his destructive rampages; slays the eight-headed serpent Yamata no Orochi and discovers the Kusanagi sword within its fourth tail. He is simultaneously the greatest troublemaker and greatest hero of the Shinto pantheon — transformed by exile from a destroyer into a dragon-slayer.

Parallels: Thor (Norse), Indra (Hindu), Perseus (Greek — dragon-slayer rescuing a maiden); Heracles (exiled, then redeemed) See also: Amaterasu, Kitsune, Yamata no Orochi
