Fate
Before i write down my answer, i must say that this is a guess. The mythological beings known as The Fates, there were three, their names are Clotho Lachesis and Atropos. Clotho spins the thread of life, Lachesis measures it, and Atropos cuts it. Thus saying when you are born, and how long you will live. There are more details but I'm skipping them because they are irrelevant. The first one, Clotho. Cloth. So my guess is that the word comes from Clotho, whom spins the thread of life.
The three goddesses who control mortal destiny in Greek mythology are the Fates, known as the Moirai. They are Clotho, who spins the thread of life; Lachesis, who measures it; and Atropos, who cuts it, determining the moment of death. Together, they symbolize the inescapable fate and the lifecycle of all beings. Their influence underscores the belief that fate is predetermined and beyond mortal control.
Legend
As if they were imaginary, mythical beings. Because they are.
There are no phoenixes for sale anyway. They are mythical beings.
A story about mythical or supernatural beings is called a myth or a legend. It often involves fantastical creatures, gods, or other entities that are not of the natural world.
The Fates are the ones who are known for this. Each of them had a distinct role: Clotho (Greek name, her Roman name was Nona) spun the thread of life. Lachesis (Roman name Decima) measured the thread of life allotted to each person. Atropos (Roman name Morta) chose the manner and timing of each person's death. When she cut the thread with shears, someone on Earth died.

Sirens were mythical but many state that these beings did at once exist.
Assuming that you mean angles, and not mythical religious beings, the answer is 360 degrees.
Some mythical creatures that are said to eat humans include vampires, werewolves, and chupacabras. These creatures are often depicted as dangerous and predatory beings in folklore and legends.
There was no individual human being who created them. And if you are asking about mythical beings then each religion has its own answer.
