  1. Medusa

  2. What's her weapon? People get scared because of what she looked like.

  3. What powers does she have? Whoever looks at her turns to stone. She was mortal, but she was very hard to kill.

  4. Who are her relatives? Daughter of Porky's and Keto and children of Gcia (earth) Okeanos (ocean)

  5. What does it look like? • She has snakes for hair that hissed and flicked their tongues continually around her head. She had claws for brass. She also had a scaled neck.

  6. Does any thing happen to her? • Yes, she gets beheaded by a Greek Hero Peruses.

  7. The final story • The sole mortal of the monstrous Gorgons, slain by Perseus. The fact that hero used a reflective shield given him by Athena to avoid looking directly at Medusa suggests that the Gorgon had the power of turning to stone whoever looked she looked upon. This was not an issue for Perseus, since Medusa was asleep when he chopped off her head.
