Medusa

Medusa was a very beautiful mortal many mortal men wanted her and Gods. One night she was walking and Poseidon(in disguised) chases Medusa. Medusa runs into Athena's temple looking for sanctuary,but Poseidon had his way and abused Medusa.Athena(being a virgin Goddess) looked @ it as Medusa should have been able to protect herself and her virginity turned her into a Gorgon so that no man would ever want her again and would turn man to stone when looked into her eyes.(snake body,hair,tongue but human body and arms) Yes you would think that Athena uncle would to be to blame but Athena is a warrior goddess.

gave him flying shoes, an invisible helmet and a sword.

Her hair, because she would be powerless without them.

If you're talking about Perseus and the Gorgon's head, than it's Perseus.

If you're talking about the story about who Medusa got her snake hair, then it's just Poseidon, Medusa and Athena.

Medusa was the high priestess of Athena. She was beautiful and was desired by many men.

One day Poseidon, Lord of the sea and earthquakes, took Medusa into Athena's temple and raped her. Athena was furious, for being a priestess of Athena, she had to keep her maidenhood like the goddess. So to make sure this didn't happen again, Athena turned Medusa into a gorgon with snakes for hair and eyes that turn people to stone.

she was in the original book, remember, aunty em's garden gnome emporium

Before she was cursed by Athen, she was a beautiful girl with wings of gold. After she was cursed, she had serpents(snakes) for hair, a large tongue, scales for skin, and she was just flat out ugly.

Medusa's Grandmother is actually Gaia the godess of the earth and her grandfather is a weirdo like u

to kill medusa a.k.a the gorgon. and to stop the king from marreing his mother trolololollol

Medusa and Poseidon were courting in Athena's temple and she turned Medusa and her sisters who helped her get into the temple the three Gorgons. ('cuz courting in her temple was hugely disrespectful)

Yes: Chrysaor and Pegasus.

Athena was the one that cursed Medusa. She caught Medusa, then a beautiful sea nymph, meeting with Poseidon in one of her temples. Athena was so mad that she cursed Medusa with snake hair and eyes that will turn people into stone. This is probably why Athena helped Perseus kill Medusa and then placed Medusa's head on her shield.

yes medusa had a good relationship with perseus.

Medusa could turn people into stone.

Turning people to stone

Gorgon

Medusa was a beautiful woman. She was turned into a Gorgon by Athena because Medusa and Poseidon had an affair in Athena's temple. Having sexual affairs in a goddesses temple is extremely disrespectful. When Medusa was turned into a Gorgon, she became immortal. She was the extremely ugly and had snakes as hair. When anyone looked at her, they turned into stone. Later, Perseus, a hero, went on a quest to get Medusa's head. He could only use the reflection of his shield to look at her, or else he would turn to stone. Once the head is removed, it still has the power to turn people into stone.

Athena, because Medusa was bragging about her beauty, when Athena was the most beautiful godess. :)

No

We do not know what Medusa's interests were. We only know that she was the only mortal gorgon (dreadful female creatures) that her eyes turned people to stone and that Perseus killed her.

Its because he wants to take off her head so she can turn the guy who is trapping his mom into stone to save his mom.
