A Gorgon is a terrifying creature, looking similar to a Human apart from it's legs being replaced by a snakes tail, and hair made up of snakes. The gaze of a Gorgon can turn its victim to stone if you look the Gorgon in there eyes. According to legends, there were three original Gorons. The first was Medusa who was a mortal Gorgon and was killed by Perseus who used the reflection that she cast onto his shield. Medusa had two sisters, Sthens and Euryule, who were immortal.
