Can someone please make a Pecos Bill page?

Pecos Bill
I think the mythology page could use some more modern myth's, and Pecos Bill would be perfect.
For Powers and Ability's he would have Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Air Manipulation(He lassoed a f***ink twister), and Weapon Mastery(Shot Slue-Foot Sue while she was bouncing on the moon)

Attack Potency: Star level(Pecos Bill shoots all the stars from the sky except for one which becomes the Lone Star of Texas)

Speed: Unknown

Stamina: High ( "It was also said that he once wrestled the Bear Lake Monster for several days until Bill finally defeated it.")

He would be so much fun to have in a fight. Please someone get on this.
 
Actually, this profile would not be appropriate for the mythology as this was a character most likely invented by Edward O'Reilly and is not an actual example of folklore.

Where would he go then?
 
Fables and Fairytales is probably inappropriate as well, if he is a creation of a comparatively modern author.
 
In the Wikipedia page he was compared to Paul Bunyan, so on second thought, he might fit into either mythology or fairytales. I am not certain.

Pecos Bill would be Star level for shooting out the stars since he did it one by one. @Zach
Shooting out the stars would require destroying stars way bigger than ours. That's why high 4-C is called large star level
 
Well, we technically probably need a "Fakelore" category for characters like this, as Wikipedia named it.
 
Okay, so Pecos Bill is not really either mythology or a fairy tale according to Wikipedia. Does the same apply to Paul Bunyan and aimilar characters, and if so, should we give them a "Fakelore" category instead?

How about we just make an American Folklore category?
 
Then I'll make the necessary changes to the mythology page and take a crack at making the Pecos Bill page
 
Okay. Although a "Fakelore" verse page still makes better sense to me.
 
how about a fakelore category on the mythology page?

and researching this a bit more, Paul Bunyan is certainly a folklore character as he originated from oral tradition amongst loggers.
 
Okay, but Pecos Bill is apparently not.
 
It was probably done in a comedic manner.
 
Because lassoing a tornado is a rather humorous (Which the author intended when making this character) and absurd way to use air manipulation. Not only did he lasso a tornado, he rode it, which is a very reality warper-esque feat. And besides, it would most likely be weather manipulation (Since a tornado is a weather phenomenon) than air manipulation.
