Origin: Greece - Has a snake's body and snakes for hair. Medusa, the powerful Stheno, and the far-flying Euryale are the three Gorgons. All were once beautiful women, given the form of monsters through Athena's curse. Gorgon means "dreadful one." Those who look into a Gorgon's eyes are turned to stone.
ペルセウスがメデューサを退治しようとした際に彼を援助した。Translation: The three sisters are named Stheno (the eldest), Euryale (the second), and Medusa (the third). Originally, they were beautiful maidens, but when the third sister Medusa had an affair with the sea goddess Poseidon in the temple of the goddess Athena, Athena became angry and changed Medusa into an ugly woman, which made her and her two sisters ugly as well. At this time, even their hair, which was so beautiful that it was praised, was turned one by one into serpents. In addition, the eldest and second daughters are immortal, but only the third daughter, Medusa, is not.
Athena's anger did not stop with the disfigurement of Medusa and the other three sisters; she assisted Perseus in his attempt to exterminate Medusa.
A hideous female monster with poison fangs and snakes instead of hair. Her name is Greek for "terrible." After Perseus took her head, he offered it to the gods who helped him slay her.
