This list of mythical creatures that begin with this letter and I am constantly gathering information from each continent, and is continually being updated.
Shojo (Japanese)
Along the mountainous coasts of Japan lives a race of intelligent sea spirits known as shojo. They look like man-sized apes, with long, shaggy red hair. Their faces are also reddish and blushed as if drunk. Shojo are bipedal like humans, and occasionally wear clothes or skirts made of seaweed.
Shojo spend their lives drinking large quantities of alcohol and playing in the sea and sand of secluded beaches. They revel in drunken silliness, singing, dancing, and enjoying life. Despite their silly appearance and demeanor, they are said to be wise. Extremely fond of sake and other types of alcohol, they are excellent brewers themselves and can distil a powerful brine wine from seawater.
