Mythology of creatures born or created from fire

Hi folks... Rattling around in the neuroplastic memory of my brain is the thought that there are goddesses & other creaturers that mystically
emerge from fire.( quite different from the classical Phoenix) The rattling around the Web has not produced info. other than the rattle that
the Japanese Konji symbol for "Ka" ( female power & passion & fire in general ) looks like a rampant Praying Mantis....which, in turn,
seems to activate a long inactive neural network showing a Mantis surrounded, not unhappily, by the flames of fire.
I'd be most grateful for information re the Mantis & its relation to fire as well as any other "beings" .....Gods or not...so related.
Thanks phalerontim.

Hello....I would like to obtain information re: Within mythology or folklore....which "Gods", mystical creatures and/or animal creatures are born in, emerge from or are created by fire. I'm especially interested in whether the insect named Praying Mantis has a mythological relation to fire
Thanks for yr interest, phalerontim.
