Gorgon

The Hideous Snakes

*Threat Level: High

Passive or Aggressive: Aggressive, a Gorgon's main food source is any stray creatures that enter the cave, and will never pass up such an opportunity.

Common Attacks
Petrify, To stare into the eyes of a gorgon will cause a temporary hypnosis in turn causing continual staring into their eyes and eventually cause permanent damage. After 5 seconds of staring, the nerves throughout the body become damaged, causing permanent full body paralysis. After effects cause the skin of a target to harden and become like stone. The only known defense is silver armor, which reflects the "petrification rays" back towards the gorgon, causing it to turn its gaze away.
Venom, injected into the bloodstream, a Gorgon's venom is quite powerful and fatal in minutes if not treated.
*Archery, Gorgons tend to lean more towards bow weaponry inside the cave. They are quite accurate markswomen.

Description
Gorgons are not too disimilar from Dracaena, in fact they may be of distant relation. Like the Dracaena, the Gorgons have a muscular snake-like tail built for silent but stong movement. They live only inside one known cave on the island of Atlan, which has become aptly named the Gorgon Cave. They have peculiar teeth, two of which are retractable fangs, and most of them are incredibly sharp. They appear like homonid females (upper portion) but that is only because of their possible Dracaena lineage. They all share a certain hideousness and scavenger lifestyle around the caves, picking bones off prey that has fallen off the Urdar Cliffs or strayed into their domain.
