Gorgon
A hybrid of a snake and a humanoid woman, with a mane of snakes in place of its hair, a Gorgon is quite literally a petrifying sight to behold. Even the bravest adventurers risk turning to stone after merely glancing at a Gorgon.
Gorgons draw their energy from the lethargy of those around them, so Gorgons often dwell in cemeteries or crypts where statues are to be expected. There, they turn people to stone and wait for their initial panic to be replaced by utter, delicious boredom.
