Bolsonaro won apparently, so congrats to our monkeybros. On that note, however, what would Brazilian monster girls be like? There's potential in the "mapinguari" as a tall, apelike-yet-also-reptilic sharptoothed monoeye, and the botos (pink river dolphins) of the amazon river that are thought to take on human forms at night and visit human parties late at night to seduce people back to their underwater rape caves/civilization while wearing a hat to hide their unshapeshiftable blowholes are known as "encantado"s, but what else is there?

I can offer some examples from native mythology.

>Angra

Goddess of fire, commonly depicted as a lady made out of fire. She defended the Guarani from rival tribes with utmost zeal. Legend says that she has a special appetite for lettuce, which restored her vigor whenever she ate it (which is most likely an analog to the nature of fire and how fast it consumes plants and such).

>Sukuyu'wera (Suu-kuu-yuu-weh-rah)

Goddess of the open seas and snakes. A merciful lady spirit who often saves shipwrecked people from drowning. She's also a mortal enemy of the Ahiag (Ah-he-agh) - evil demons who can shapeshift in order to kidnap, kill, eat, curse and possess people. They don't know how to swim, and don't have the guts to try for fear of getting their shit wrecked six ways from Sunday by Sukuyu'wera.

>Jaci (Jah-see)

Goddess of the Moon and the night. She is the protector of vegetation, lovers and reproduction. Responsible for bathing the virgin tribeswomen with blessing light, and charming men with the female form, so they may seek wives of their own. According to legend, Guaraci, the Sun God, got tired of his job after a long time being, well, the Sun, and needed to sleep every once in a while. In order to illuminate the darkness in Guaraci's absence, Tupã (Too-pan), the "big boss" of the entire multiverse, created Jaci.

>Iara (Ee-ah-rah)

Goddess of rivers and lakes. A beautiful mermaid with light brown-golden skin, long green hair and hazel eyes, who lives in the depths of the Amazonian River. She is the "Mother of The Waters", who protects the sealife of every single river on Earth. She likes to come ashore during the evenings to decorate her hair with red flowers, and sometimes shapeshifts into a human form to check up on humans. She's so dazzling that fishermen often go overboard by accident, entranced by her looks. Quite a handful for Sukuyu'wera to deal with.

Ceuci (Seh-oo-see)

Goddess of tillage and home. She's often depicted as the brightest star in the Pleiades constellation. When she still roamed the Earth, Guaraci sent her a son, whom would come to be known as Jurupari. Her son would grow up to reformulate the costumes and lifestyle of the native tribes and establish a patriarchal system. He could no be approached by women during his teachings to the men of the tribes, and when Ceuci, who wished to see her son again after being separated for so long, was struck down by one of Tupã's lightning bolts for approaching him during one such ceremony. Her son was forbidden from saving his dying mother, and despite his tearful lament, she reassured him that she would shine in the dark skies, and look out for him always.

>Boitatá (boi-tah-tah)

A giant, horned, flaming snake with intense shining eyes and transparent scales which lives in the water, and protects the wilderness against arsonists. Impatient and a hothead to boot, when a person sees it slithering through the wild at night, it is advised to stand still, hold your breath, close your eyes shut and wait for it to understand your intentions. It considers people who run away in fear as evildoers who're setting fire to the forests and fleeing the scene, and will promptly hunt down anyone who does so.

>Boiuna (Boi-unah)

A giant dark snake capable of capsizing entire ships. It can also form illusion of a ship to attract shipwrecked men, and shapeshift into a woman.

>Caá-Yaríi (Caah Ya-ree)

Goddess of mate herbs. Humble and welcoming of travelers, and lives near the Tabay River. She makes the best damn tea this side of the Amazon.

>Naiá, The Water Lily

Once upon a time, a young virgin warrior girl, Naiá (Nai-ah), dreamed of the day she would be chosen by Jaci to be one of the goddess' chosen women to become a beautiful star in the sky. Her elders warned her that such an ascension would rid her of her flesh and blood, transforming her into light, but she did not care. Every night she would climb atop the highest mountain to wait for the Goddess of the Moon, but she never came. Naiá did not waver, and continued to wait, to the point where she refused to eat or drink anything. One day, while passing by a nearby lake to rest, she saw the image of the Moon upon the surface, reflected by the waters. Lost in her dream, she fell into the lake, drowning in the process. Saddened by her sacrifice, the Moon decided to revive her as a different kind of star - a Water Lily, the "Star of the Waters". Perfect and unique, whose white flower only flourished at night, and turned pink at dawn.

>>377205

>Mbói Tu'i

A legendary giant serpent with a parrot head. With a huge beak, a blood-red forked tongue, and scaly, streaked skin. It has a harmful stare that strikes deep fear into anyone who looks into its eyes. It patrols the swamps protecting amphibian life, and enjoys the humidity and flowers. It lets out an incredibly powerful squawk which can be heard from very far off, and can instill terror in all who hear it. It is considered the protector of aquatic animals and the wetlands.

>Mbaeapina

A "sheared" water monster. Not much is known about it, but it most likely resembles an eel.

>Blue Tiger

Just a blue tiger. An apocalyptic blue tiger, that is. Sounds fucking rad.

>Rudá (Roo-dah)

God of love and affection, depicted as a warrior who lives in the clouds. He awakens the feeling of love in the hearts of women, especially warrior women, by softening their hardened hearts and preparing them for marriage, so they may long for a husband. Protector of chastity, excellent wingman and bro-tier guy in general. He has two female adjudants, Cairé (Full Moon) and Catiti (New Moon), whose mission is to make lovers long for each other when they're separated. With the "power" of longing, women chant and plead for him to bring their husbands back home when they're gone to hunt or battle for too long.

These are the most /monster/-oriented examples available. Most others are either minor figures of culture and knowledge that look like average people, male gods and lovecraftian creatures, JoJo-esque heroes 1v1'ing each other to death, and an old shaman causing a worldwide flood because his brother pissed him off.

>Caamanha (Caah-mah-nee-ah)

Goddes of the Flora. The "Mother of the Wild", clad in leaves and roots, who protects the jungle from deforestation. Workers and travelers are advised to pack up their camps before setting off to run their errands, fearing that Caamanha might place a wooden twig within each of their resting places. Such twigs have morphine-like effects, sending them into deep sleep as they lie in their beds, leaving them vulnerable to attacks from animals and monsters.

>Jururá-Açú (Joo-roo-rah Ah-soo)

Goddess of the Underworld. Legend says that, for having freed Anhangá from imprisonment, she became the only entity capable of entering and leaving the underworld at will. She was transformed into a turtle by Tupã as punishment for doing so, hindering her locomotion, but oddly enough making her ordeals easier, as she could tresspass in and out of the underworld without being noticed, using her shell to disguise herself as a rock, and thus having vast knowledge of both the world of the living and the dead due to her many travels, which she could do at her own leisure.

>Açai (Ah-sah-ee)

A legendary nereid.

>Icamiabas (Ee-camee-abas)

A title given to tribes of warrior women and their matriarchal society. The famed Amazons.

>Besta-fera

The Wild Beast. A mythical man-eating creature with a frightening roar, often described as a centaur. It gallops through the villages at night until it finds a specific tomb of a recently deceased person, and promptly vanishes before it. The deathly sound of its hooves can terrorize anyone who hears it. The Wild Beast whips any creature that dares chase it down or stand in its path into submission, but despite its fearsome demeanor, it is not that much of a threat to humans, as tradition dictates that when a man sees its stern, judging visage, he will mad for many days, but will eventually recover.

>Bicho Papão

The "Devourer Creature", equivalent of the Bogeyman. With fiery eyes, it is the personification of fear itself, and can transform into any monstrous form it may desire. Its has a special appetite for young misbehaving boys.

>Boi Vaquim

A creature with the form of a winged bull with golden horns and diamond eyes. It strikes fear into campers, as it can shoot fire from the tip of its horns. It takes a strong, courageous man and an agile horse to lasso the Boi Vaquim.

>Cabra Cabriola

The Capriole Goat. A fearsome creature with a monstruous aspect, who likes to eat young boys. Legends says that when a child suddenly breaks into tears, it meant that the Capriole Goat was about to take another victim.

>Capelobo

A Chimera-like creature, with a mix of human and animal features. It has the head of an anteater (or a dog, or a mule, and human body, with round feet (roughly akin to an elephant's). It's very fast and is constantly rushing through the wilderness near rivers and lowlands. It's especially active during the night and the early hours, stalking villages and camps from the brushes. Its fearsome roar is akin to a loud scream, and it feeds on dogs and cattle, especially the young. It has a habit of attacking hunters, seeking to drink their blood or suck their brains out. Legend says that a well-placed shot at its navel is the only way of slaying the beast. It's often compared to werewolves, and some consider it a type of werewolf.

>Ana Jansen

Once a rich woman who often mistreated her slaves, she was condemned to roam the roads of São Luís do Maranhão as a ghost, riding in her haunted carriage as its pushed by a headless slave and his likewise headless ghostly steed.

>Cavalo d'água

The Water Horse. A creature of fantasy that supposedly lives in the São Francisco River, where it chases down ships. It is believed that only one Water Horse may exist at any time.

>Labatut

A giant human-like creature with round feet, long hands, long messy hair, a single eye, and tusks protruding from its mouth like an elephant's. It is considered to be worse than a werewolf in terms of man-eating. It typically hunts for prey on empty roads during windy nights under the full moon.

>>377253

>Minhocão

The Giant Worm. A creature with a dark complexion. Sometimes mistaken for a giant snake, it dwells in the depths of rivers among the supporting structures of bridges and stilt houses, sometimes coming near the surface, where part of its body resembles an overturned canoe.

>Guajara (Gwa-jah-rah)

A hobgoblin with invisibility powers that appears at night during the winter, and at daytime during the summer (although very rarely). It makes a lot of noise, mimicking things like animals, hunters, fishers and lumberjacks to scare away travelers that trespass into its swamp.

Caipora (Cah-ee-poh-rah)

A creature associated with the life of the forests. Often depicted as a short, elf-ish person with slightly reddish-brown skin. Nude, fast and agile, Caipora is a trickster spirit that lords over the fauna and flora in its domain, which it patrols while mounted on its trusty boar, carrying a wooden staff. Caipora can control and revive dead animals as to preserve the ecosystem around its territory. When met by hunters, it strikes a deal with them and establishes specific conditions for hunting in its territory, where they must not hunt any more than they need to feed themselves and their families. If the hunters break deal, they're punished severely. It is believed that Caipora fears light. Some believe it to be a cannibal, who devours anyone who hunts in its territory without permission, even if they're hunting something as small as an insect. Caipora often dirupts evil hunters by shooing away prey, scaring tracker dogs, simulating animal sounds, whistling, snapping twigs, making traps and many other things, as to disorient the hunter and leave them lost in the jungle. Hunting on Fridays, Sundays and holidays is nearly impossible, as Caipora gets especially rowdy on such days, but there is a way to trick the trickster: Caipora likes smoking, and if a person meets it in the wild at night, a smoking pipe tribute will do the trick to get Caipora off their back. Pretty gifts in general also work.

>Cuca (Coo-cah)

One of the most well-known creatures of brazillian folklore. Commonly known as the Old Witch, she has the form of a dragon or an alligator with long blonde hair and hawk-like claws for nails. It has a habit of kidnapping misbehaving children who don't want to sleep during bedtime. Legend says that, when she becomes one thousand years old, an egg appears somewhere close to her house. A new, younger Cuca is born from this egg, and tells the old one that her time as a Witch is over and she's too old for the job. The older Cuca then performs a spell to transform herself into a bird, and with a sorrowful chirp, she flies away to live her last days in the wild, as the new, young Cuca takes her place as the new witch. This cycle continues for all the Witches, each stronger and meaner than the last.

>Anhangá (Ah-nee-an-gah)

Protector of wildlife. Often depicted as a white deer with red burning eyes, it was mistaken by Jesuites as the indigenous version of the Devil, but is in fact a guardian spirit who looks after the fauna of the jungles, especially the females and the young. One legend involves a native hunter who tortured a young fawn, so its screams would attract its mother. When the latter answered her young's cries, the hunter attacked her, only to be tricked by a illusion where he killed his own mother instead - a trick created by Anhangá, to teach him a lesson. It overdoes its punishment like that.

>Mãe do Ouro

Roughly translates to "Mother of the Gold". She manifests either as thunder, the wind, or most commonly as a ball of fire that can shapeshift into a female form with blonde hair clad in a soft white silk dress. She warns people of changes in the weather, and aids unlucky prospectors by showing them where to find deposits of gold, under the condition that they never reveal said locations to anyone. She can also fly.

>Mula Sem Cabeça

The Headless Mule. Once a human woman, she was cursed by the gods for her sins (unspecified, but it was interpreted by Jesuites that she committed fornication with a priest), and her soul was transformed into the ghostly form of a headless mule with iron hooves and an eternal fire emanating from her neck. It roams the fields of seven premises from the Thursday evening to the dawn of Friday. Its violent galloping and neighing can be heard from very far off, but few have heard its quiet, repentant sobbing, longing for a brave soul to remove its iron bridles, or sheds its blood with an item made out of wood, and set it free from its curse. When the day finally comes and the curse is lifted, her spirit will reform into her former human appearance, saddened, ashamed and repentant, and will not turn back into a mule as long as the man who did the feat remains within the premise with her.

>Mapinguari (Mah-pin-gwah-ree)

A giant one-eyed apeman-esque creature, with dark/red body hair, which is so thick that it's basically bullet-proof armor. It has a large mouth with rows of sharp teeth adorning its terrifying grin.

>Gorjala (Gor-jah-lah)

A giant apeman-like creature with dark hairs, much like Mapinguari. One of the guardians of the forest, it chases down and devours any who trespass into its domain. It is usually found taking shelter in ridges and mountaintops, as it loves going on long walks at the edge of cliffs and precipices, jumping over deep, deadly pits for fun.

>Charia (Cha-ree-ah)

It is said that the bright red star of Aldebaran is the right eye of Charia, the Celestial Jaguar, who gazes down upon the Earth from the cosmos above. Depicted as a bluish jaguar, its only purpose is to bring darkness to the world. It is a powerful entity on par with the patron gods, and is determined to slay them. It chases the Moon every night, seeking to devour it. Legend has it that the phases of the Moon are merely the result of Charia biting off chunks of the celestial body, which then needs to flee the jaguar for some time to reform. Sometimes Charia's attack cause the Moon to "bleed", resulting in the event commonly known as the Red Moon. It is at this time that Charia is the closest to achieving its goal. In order to dispel the darkness brought forth during the night of the Red Moon, people of the tribes shout and scream at the top of their lungs, confusing Charia and disrupting its hunt. Charia also attempts to slay the Sun from time to time, causing the event known as the Solar Eclipse. Despite being often told in tales as an evil spirit, it is also depicted a benign one, taking the form of a jaguar woman who aids humans and gods alike in their endeavors. Charia is not always evil.

>>377255

>The Enchanted Bull of Lençóis

A huge bull with a bright star on its forehead, who appears on the island of Lençóis, Maranhão, on Fridays during the full moon. The creature walks along the beaches at night and disappears at dawn.

>Teiniaguá (Tei-nee-ah-gwah)

The Salamanca of Jarau. Teiniaguá is an enchanted lizard with a large, beautiful gemstone on its forehead, which is said to hold magical properties. Teiniaguá lives in a place called Cerro do Jarau, at the border between the state of Rio Grande do Sul and the country of Uruguay.

It is said that Teiniaguá is a witch from the region of Salamanca, Spain, where it would have been bewitched by a spirit called Anhangá-Pytham, and trapped in the shape of a lizard during the day. One day, a sexton - a boy responsible for taking care of the church - found Teiniaguá sitting by a lake. Well aware of its magic powers, the boy took the animal to his room back at the church.

At night, the creature took on a human form, and asked for something to drink, which the boy promptly answered by bringing wine to please her. The boy eventually began to neglect his sacristan services, until the priests discovered the reason why. Upon being found, Teiniaguá heeded the boy's advice to transform into her lizard form and flee. The boy stayed behind to be captured and sentenced to death.

On the day of his execution, however, moments before he was killed, the ground cracked open, opening huge holes. Teiniaguá left the depths to rescue her friend, taking him away with her to a large cave at the hills of Jarau. Teiniaguá used her powers to make the boy immortal, and so they lived happily ever after, surrounded by the gold and riches of the cave.

>Cumadre Fulozinha (Foo-loh-zee-nee-ah)

Godmother Fulozinha, sometimes called "Flower of the Bushes", is a forest-dwelling fairy. Fulozinha is a young girl, around twelve years old, with long hair. Her hair is so long in fact, that it drags along the ground when she walks around. She is often confused with Caipora (don't confuse the two, or she'll get mad).

She is also the "owner" of the forest, and one should always give her an offering, should they meet. She's usually fine with tobacco or porridge. Unlike Caipora, who receive specific offerings in exchange for permission for one to hunt, Fulozinha demands offerings if one so much as enters her forest. Should a person meet her, they are required to give her a gift of some sort. A boastful and prideful child, she announces her arrival with a loud whistle, and if you don't have anything to give her when she shows up, she will "beat you up, simple as that!" She also beats up people who give her offerings that contain pepper. She hates spicy food.

Some people say that she uses her hair as a whip as a method of attack. That is, when she's not using a stick. It is also said that she has tremendous strength for her size.

>Cupendiepes (Cuu-pen-dee-eh-pehs)

The Cupendiepes are winged human-bat hybrids. Merciless to anyone who enters their territory, they take advantage of their nocturnal habits to attack by surprise.

>Enchanted Princess of Jericoacoara

A beautiful lady trapped in a snakelike form and destined to store treasures who lives in a cave near the lighthouse of this city of Ceará. It is said that she guards the gate of an enchanted city full of treasures. The woman is attached to a serpent-like form with golden scales, but keeps her head and feet in human form.

To have access to all this fortune, one must go to the serpent and draw a sign of a cross in its scales with blood. This will break the spell and open the gate. However, the blood must come from a sacrifice, and to this day no one has offered themselves as sacrifice so someone else could take the treasure. And so the princess remains in her cave, guarding the doors to a golden kingdom.

>Sanguanel (San-gwah-nel)

Sanguanel is a type of elf, and a mischevious at that. It has settled in the region of Rio Grande do Sul, brought from abroad by Italian immigrants. It is depicted as a small, red creature that lives in the treetops.

It is known for kidnapping children and taking them to the treetops, where they are put in a state of drowsiness. It does them no harm, and even feeds them with honey and water, using a large leaf as a glass. Its behavior is a bit of a problem, as the parents of the children become desperate due to the disappearance of their young, looking for them until they find them at the top of the trees in comfortable nests made by Sanguanel.

>Pé-de-Garraffa

It name translates to "Bottlefoot". In the North-Central part of the country, there are stories of people who hear agonizing cries of people when passing by nearby forests. As they enter the woods to answer the supposed cries of help, people start to hear the same screams coming from several directions at the same time and, trying to find the origin, end up getting lost, often taking days to find the way back home. These people were victims of the Bottlefoot.

The name of the creature comes from the fact that its footprints are perfectly circular and with a lump in the center, akin to the bottom part of a bottle. It rarely appears before people, as its trail confuses them even more. The few people who have seen Bottlefoot say that it is a very hairy Cyclops creature with a large horn on its forehead, with a one-legged humanoid body.

Although very frightening, there is no evidence that Bottlefoot feeds on humans, or drives them to get lost in the wild on purpose.

>Mão-Pelada

Translates to "The Naked Hand". It is a tanuki-esque beast with orange fur, and is not much bigger than a calf. Its name comes from the fact that one of its hands has no hairs, and it is usually curled close to the body when it walks. While it may not be as big as other creatures, it more than makes up for it with raw magical power. Its eyes and fur shine in a sparkling blue, which causes its prey to be hypnotized and drawn to a farther place, where it can be killed more easily. When chased by hunters, it confronts hunting dogs and makes them return to their owners with their tails between their legs.

>Famaliá (Fah-mah-lee-ah)

The Famaliás, commonly known as "Bottled Devils", are entities that are confined in containers, which does not necessarily have to be a bottle. They are known to grant any wish made by the owners, akin to genies. They are created from a specific ritual dedicated to some greater entity that is linked to the black magic (usually said to be the Devil). Many wizards strike deals with these familiars, who are are summoned when needed to assist in the execution of spells.

But of course, such qualities are not free, and the Famaliá charges its owner at the end of his or her life, taking the wizard's soul as payment for the higher entity who granted him the little devil adjudant.

>Cumanga (Coo-mahn-gah)

A curse that strikes the seventh daughter of any family. It is also said to be a variation of the curse of the Headless Mule, which affects women who engage in relationship with priests.

At night, while the woman sleeps, her head detaches from the body and flies through the sky in the form of a ball of fire, acting autonomously. It begins its night journey, passing through several places and scaring people that come across it. Despite that, the Cumacanga is not aggressive, scaring people merely because of its sudden appearance.

>Cobra de Igreja

The Church Snakes. Former humans who've been transformed into large snakes, they prefer to rest in the underground, specifically under churches, where they rest their heads. One snake has its head under a large church, with its body extending all the way to the river. Another has its head in the basement of a different church, with its body extending all the way to a cemetery. It is unknown how many of them exist, or why they like sleeping under churches, but it is speculated that they like the peaceful chanting that comes from the surface, as it helps them sleep. What is known however, is that they are very lazy and sleepy.

These large snakes do not necessarily have the same origins, but all of them prefer to live inside religious buildings. They are usually in a constant state of hibernation, and when they move, they often cause tremors and cracks in the buildings they live under. It is said that, if awoken, they will destroy entire cities, just by getting up to get their bearings.

>Chibamba (Chee-bam-bah)

The Chibamba is a bogeyman-esque devourer creature, much like Cuca, the prancing Capriole Goat and the Quibungo, but with a peculiar shtick. It's covered from head to toe with banana leaves. It always walks in a steady rhythm, like a dance of sorts, and emits a loud, snorting sound like a pig. It does not go after spoiled children, as most other devourers do, instead going for children who cry during bedtime.

>Caruara (Cah-roo-ah-rah)

When searching in a dictionary, it is said that "caruara" is a term for pain in the lower limbs and joints. In actuality, this term is taken from these creatures. The Caruaras are centaur-esque creatures who bear a striking resemblance to stick bugs, albeit with human torsos. They roam the woods armed with bows and poisoned arrows. They have a special dislike for women who are in their period, and if they find one such woman out in the fields or in the forest, they attack them, shooting their arrows in places like knees and ankles as to cause them a terrible pain, like arthritis.

>Carneiro Encantado

The Enchanted Ram, also known as The Golden Ram, is the soul of a lone monk who was murdered by a group of thieves, who wanders about the land. Some say that it often attempts to guide people to a place of treasures, only to vanish when approached.

>Cachorrinha D'água

The Little Water Puppy. In the San Francisco there lives a small, white-haired seal-esque creature with a star made of gold on its forehead. It loves to swim, coming ashore every now and then to sunbathe by the riverbanks.

When crossing the waters of the river, one must pay attention and look out for the Water Dog, as those who spot this little creature chilling out by the riverbank will be blessed with a life of happiness and riches.

>Arranca-Línguas

The Tongueripper. A huge, hairy, strong, primate-like creature who eats only the tongues of cows and oxen. Standing at around three to four meters high, it has a fearsome roar.

>Witches

Witches are women of various ages who have a direct connection with demons and even the Devil himself. They usually act only during the night, as during the day, they live like ordinary people. They cause several different kinds of ills and misfortunes, such as causing animals to vanish, driving travelers crazy, and sucking the blood or life force out of children, leaving them sick.

These witches have a variety of abilities: They metamorphose (commonly into moths), fly, turn people into animals, and even alter reality, causing people to see the environment around them in scary and distorted ways.
