Hmm. I was just reading about the Lambton Worm, a myth I'd not thought about since childhood. It struck me as rather a nice central conceit for a Western campaign, given its small starting point - a man angering God by fishing on a Holy Day. Nice transferable history for a settlement, at least.
The Wikipedia entry's not a bad write up:
