Andaokut

Andaokut is a Native American mythological figure of the Nuu-chah-nulth people. He is a giant boy born from the tears of a woman mourning the loss of her child, which was stolen by Malahas, a cannibal.[1] He ventures through the forest to find Malahas, slay her, and rescue the children she abducted,[2] and brings them back to life by urinating on them.[3]
